Byrd to herself. as if to steel herself

could be so sweet at times.

and she stopped a moment TO gaze
at her flushed face, rosy as a baby's,
her hair tossed about 1t like a dis

Byrd filled the little teakcttle

faults and the same virtues in bus

realized this. She must be careful

crop out.

and promised TO make the most Of

She looked surprised when Byrd
announced they'd spend the day buy

They were just ready to leave the
apartment when some packages were
delivered. an oil painting in a new

CHRISTMAS SEAL
ORIGIN REVEALED
Idea Conceived in Denmark
First Employed by U. S.
in 1907.

Based on the idea of an old Roman
galley laden with a cargo of health
and wealth, the new design Of the
Christmas seal issued by the Washing
ton tuberculosis Association to finance
its numerous health services in the
District of Columbia is making its ap-
pearance in Washington.
The facsimile of this seal is shown
in the accompanying illustration, to-
gether with the original Danish seal
and the first seal to be used in the
United States. AS contrasted with
these, there is displayed on the main
sail Of the Roman galley on the new
seal the double barred cross, emblem of
the worldwide fight against tuber-
culosis.
These Christmas health seals are
issued by the National tuberculosis
Association to be sold for cent each
by the various State and local asso-
Citations affiliated with the national
body The quota which the Washing
ton Association must sell in order to
finance its health work during the COM
ing year members 100000 which con-
verted into cash will provide the S40,-
600 required by the associations bud
get. More than 100000, 900 of these
little stickers we're sold in the whole
country last year. the highest point
reached since they were first used in
1904.
Originated In Denmark.
The idea of a Christmas seal was
first utilized in financing health work
IN copenhagen, Denmark, in that year.
The need of children's hospital was
being talked and a postal clerk, hear
ing OF this, conceived that the fund
Tor the hospital might be raised
through the general use of a decora-
tive seal for Christmas parcels and let
ters. His plan was approved, and the
money Tor the children's hospital was
raised
One of the letters bearing the little
D5nlsn christmas seal was sent to a
relative In New York-Jacob Riis. social
reformer of that time and friend of
Theodore Roosevelt Riis took pains to
find out its purpose. Then he wrote
an article in the outlook about the
project.
Inc article was read by Miss Emily
blsseu OF Wilmington, Eel, who was
interested In trying to raise $4,000 for
a tuberculosis pavilion In that city
She had some special seals printed and
placed on sale for the Christmas of
1907. with the result that the needed
pavilion was financed and built.
Sale Began by Red Cross.
Another outcome of this first Amer
ican seal sale was that in the following
year Miss Bissell induced the officers
OF the American Red Cross to take up
the idea on a national scale for the
special benefit Of the campaign against
tuberculosis, which at that time was un-
der the management of the Red Cross.
The Red Cross continued the annual
sale and in 1910 made an arrangement
with the National Tuberculosis Associa-
tion to carry on the sale. This partner
ship continued until 1920. In that year
the partnership was dissolved by mu-
tual agreement, and the double-barred
cross, adopted as the national trade
mark of the anti-tuberculosis campaign,
was thereafter used on all Christmas
seals.
