Millions of housewives have found
that, by mixing their own cough medi-

remedy. They use a recipe which costs
only one-fourth as much az readymade
medicine, but which really has no equal
for breaking up distressing coughs.

No cooking needed. It's no trouble at
all, and makes the most effective rem
edy that money could buy. Keeps per-

BY GOOD FELLOW EDITOR
One bright spot in our day yes.
terday was the offer made by
Lieut.. Major H. Mills Eroh, dis
trict commander of the Volun-
teers of America, whose organiza.
ton will play Good Fellow to a
Eoodly number of needy families
on our list by furnishing Christ.
mas baskets.
No less heart-warming, however,
were the other Good Fellows who
so charitably answered some Of
the many pathetic pleas that are
pouring into the Good Fellow Edi-
tors office, and who promised to
furnish a bit Of holiday cheer to
some unfortunate family.
Some answered individually and
some came representing groups.
There was the kindly old lady
who asked for the name of an
aged lady that she might give her
food and clothes for Christmas.
There was the young man repre-
senting fraternity who took the
names OF a dozen families to in
veStigate, with the promise that
his group would help as many as
they found deserving.
Money Donated
There was a fine gentleman,
"Mr. w. F. W." who made a gen.
erouS money donation; the group
Of women from a Government de-
partment who took one really
needy family and will give it as
nice a Christmas as they can.
We. thank all these Good Fellows
and all the others who have thus
far joined us in our campaign.
We would like to see every per
son who has asked for help and
really needs it have a joyful
Christmas. But it can only be done
with the help of more Good Eel
lows.
Don't wait until the last minute
to decide to be a Good Fellow.
Come in to the Good Fellow Edi-
tors office and read some of these
heartbreaking appeals for help,
written by unhappy mothers and
fathers who know that their little
ones will be forgotten by Santa
Claus if some Good Fellow does
not help.
Nine in Family Need Aid
A l3-year-old girl, whose father
Is unemployed, writes: There are
nine children in our family, but
only five are looking forward to a
happy Christmas. But unless some
one can help them, they will not
have anything. 1 have four small
brothers and their ages are 3, 7,
9, IL, and one small sister, year
old. I just want so much to make
my little brothers and sister be
happy at Christmas, and I will be
so happy if someone will send
them little toy and perhaps some
food.
Il am not asking for myself, but
I heard father say that he would
not be able to get them anything,
and l want to surprise my mother
and father"
The older children of these
needy families realize that Christ
mas may be drab because their
parents cannot afford otherwise,
but the young children cannot be
made to understand this. 1t is
these little ones that must not
be heartbroken on Christmas
morning and their belief in Santa
shattered.

Guided corner, removed her dripping
clothes, and got into the old sack.
Her temperance was greeted by
shouts of applause. BERTHE Sprigg
put out his pipe and sprayed ashes
on her, since she was already in sack
cloth.
"Repenting her sins!" he chirruped.
"She saved you a good soaking
anyway, you old souse!" cried Bubbles.
Howard Scott put his arm round
the comic figure that was Lucinda.
"Many waters cannot quench love,
nor can the floods drown it," be quot
ed amorously.
But Lucinda was getting sleepy, and
little weary of all this hoop-la stuff.
She crawled back into the hay, and
fell asleep, and in her happy dreams
she heard the gramophone going, like
the obligato played on violin-cello
in a symphony. :.
The party grew more and more hi

Suddenly wind eddied through the
cracks and crevices in the old barn.
There was a violent splatter of rain
on the darkened windows. A couple
of candles went out.
Lets beat it," someone suggested
loudly. "a big storms coming up"
Immediately there was a quick
scramble for the cars.
"Where's Lucinda? Someone wake
her up. Go on, Howard. She's your
| best beloved!"
Howard teetered vaguely back to the
barn.
'Cindy, where are you? C'mon!

There was no answer. He scrabbled
] round in the hay.
"She's run out on me. Ishnt there"
Someone said: @Lucinda's ahead in

They drove away, while Lucinda
slept deeply in the hay in her single
garment of gunny sacking.

"Ah! Ouch! Woof" She shoop her

it up, Bubbles!"
So Bubbles danced, the candlelight
making her shadow long and spooky-
like on the walls. The party grew
more and more hilarious as incessant
cocktails and highballs were consum-
ed.
Lucinda felt gay. She had worked
unconsciously hard all the hot week
in her job as advertising copywriter
in the big department store on West
34th Street. One had to work hard
in these times of depression even tho
people did say that money was going
to be more plentiful. She had taken
two cuts in salary in the past year.
She knew perfectly that the axe might
fall on her any day if her work wasn't
up to par.
But tonight, with these merry kids,
life seemed different. She had queer
premonition, too, that something per-
fectly lovely was going to happen to-
night. >.
This was the 21st of June-the long
est day of the year, wasn't it?
They were sitting in the fragrant
hay, Howard and she-and for the
umpteenth time Howard was telling
her that he loved her. That wasn't
thrill! It was as old as the hills
as old as the longest day-Lucinda
was beginning to be little fuddled-
Another little cocktail, darling?"
"No. I've had plenty"
"But l mixed them myself-special-
ly strong for you--for you, Lucinda!"
She giggled, suddenly amused. GAS
BERTHE would say, to break up the jolly
cid ice around the jolly hard heart
that the big idea, Howard?"
"Sure it is. You're lovely Lucinda,
I want to marry you"
"And live on paints and oils?"
He made swoop for the oil-can.
"Have another little cocktail?"
Cali right. All right. But shan't
marry you"
They drank together. Someone had
put sentimental air upon the gramo-
phone. Something about home and
mother.
Everybody was extremely mellow
by this time. BERTHE was frankly
tight. Bertie's fuddled thoughts were
on jolly old England. BERTHE wept.
Bubbles beau gave vent to the time
worn saying that BERTHE might we'll
be joy to his mother, but to him
he was only pain in the neck.
BERTHE wept louder. He then show
ed symptoms of pugilism.
Lets sober him." suggested Bub-
bles in whisper. She coaxed BERTHE
into the fresh air-the rain having
ceased-and during their absence, the
boy-friend, as arranged, set the we'll
known bucket-of-water trap over the
half open barn-door.
1t was i'll luck that Lucinda should
have got the fresh air idea about
two minutes after the completion of
the trap. Before anyone could warn

But Lucinda, ever resourceful, had
observed an old piece of gunny sack
at the end of the barn.
"This will do perfectly. Here,
someone, lend me a knife" She cut

and two holes for her arms. She

OUTLOOK BRIGHT
FOR FARM CREDIT
Continued Improvement Is
Forecast by Bureau of
Agricultural Economics.

Continued improvement in the farm
credit situation during the coming
year is in prospect. says the Bureau
of Agricultural Economics in its an
nual outlook report.
The need for short-term credit
probably will be somewhat larger than
in 1885. Unless there Is rapid turn
over in farm land the need for new
long-term credits will be substantially
smaller than in 1885. The supply of
both short and long term credit avail
able for farmers will be larger rela-
tive to the needs than fog several
years.
In most areas farmers are in an
easier financial position. Increased
income in 1885 has enabled more
farmers to pay of their current debts
and to make some reduction of old
obligations. More farmers, it is
stated, have been able to accumulate
little surplus to take care of ex-
