with this idea: tlu-v are ellicicut in

and respect theie ladies; vet there is
that feeling of comrude'sli p which
counts for so much iu helping the weak
and fallen.
There are three classes of girls in the
lusiiiiHion at Hainan-ami. Oue is the
neglected clasnof girls These are small
girls, children in must cuB,.h. Tliey have
been taken from homes of immoral'
mothers and luthers iu some instances,
while ill others they were just wail's up
on the great highway ol life Another
class is that of the feeble nun ed clnl
dren ami girl- in the teens T'lieyouug
er were left desolate without love or
sympathy from the oulter world. The
ti en aite girls in this class are the vic
tims ol i in moral practicesand fur which
the courts and the Hepartinent of Wel
fare have taken them up und placed
them. The thud class comes from
many of Ihe several wulks of life, and
are there because they have thrown to
the winds the good tilings with which
they started life. Most of them hail
homes, friends, freedom, privileges of
Church and school; but these have beeu
sacriliccd for the pleasures of sin ami
lust. Not altogether, w ere they to blame
tor their down fall. There stalks in this
fair State of ours as many young men
older ones, too who entered into
contract with these fallen girls, aud
wrested from them what time aud eter
nity cannot fully restore. They go bran
ded to thiskiniliy institution, while they
in their black aud hellish designs are
le I lice lu practice Iheir lieiidish pas
sions o.i other feeble and helpless gnls
just coming into womanhood. There
are three hundred girls at Saniarcaiid,
and one hundred and lifly are there be
cause some vile wretch has helped to put
thrill there. They-these men no less
than these girls should be made to heal
the same brand that their accomplices
must bear. In (iod s sight thev are no
better; why should soeietv hold them
to be better '.'
H'lt what abuut Samarcaud? Aud
why does it exist'.' Is it just a place in
w hich to place these victims of crime
aud am, when towns aud communities
will uo longer tolerate them. No, this
Is not the leasuu for the institution. It
has beeu made possible by this stale,
not to contine for ciime solely; but to
give to these fallen girls auotherchauce.
The accomplice iu the crime of each of
these girls does have another chance
in fact ilues not lose his chauce aud
this means of dealiug with fallen girls
will and dues give them auotherchauce
iu life, bad as it is to realize the estate
ot a fallen girl, it is chnstlike to give her
one chance uiure lo redeem herself. She
can not du lhat iu the oulter wuild. She
may resolve lo do so, but as long as she
remains where the clutches of her ac
couiiice can reach her, there is no pos
sible chance lor hei to redeeinlierself.Tlie

maicaud is the only place where her
chances are oue hundred per cent, fur
recovery and a new standard of life set
before her. I here she cannot come in
to contact with the crimes of theoutter
world; she is free from them, and the
only battle she will have to tightis that
one Willi herself. And there she has

"A WOMAN'S CLUB "
MKS. AL KAIRBROTHKK.
A woman's club is for the woman
who
Outgiows the chrysalis of nar
row walls
That constitutes her home, and
longs to do
Some other things worth while
when duty calls
The woman who looks out and
sees the need
Of heads and hearts and hands
to guide the wheel
Of Progress in the race where
grafters feed
Ambition's hungry maw one
who can feel
And recognize a danger from afar;
Who has a goal and always heads
"that way;
Sustained by thought thai not the
biggest car
On highway of Achievement
wins the day;
The woman who can speed or use
the brakes
In matter municipal wherein lies
The welfare of her child, or from
her takes
I ler rights and privileges 10 make
pies
And also makes demands on those
who serve
Her ciiy by her voie, and by her
paid
To govern well and wisely, lest
they swerve
When difficulties in their paths
are laid.
A woman's club is for ihe woman
who
In home and church and in so
ciety Gives of her best, and yet for her
who s true
To instincts all, which spell sa
tiety A human need for closer human
touch
With lives and thoughts all dif
ferent from her own
Something to give, in turn she
gains so much,
So much that she before has
never known.
No gossip her, no idle, aimless
hours,
No talk of creed or caste where
understood
That weeds and prickly thorns
crowd mil the flowers
And where ihe meeting ground
is womanhood.
A woman's club is for the woman
who
Would keep abreast with all
that's good and best
lu modern thought and would Iter
youth renew
!n study of the Masters stand
the test,
As in herschool girl days, of match
ing wiis
Where; in the game with those
who would be wise,
The flapper stage with ripened
scholar sits
And enters competition for the
prue.
A woman's club is college, forum,
field,
For study or for work, with
time to play.
Where unsuspected talents are re
vealed And backward, budding genius
shown the way,
A woman's club all this can be and
more
A clearing house for best in wo
mankind To fuller life it is the Open Door
For those with open heart and
open mind.
COLLECT OF CLUB WOMEN OF
AMERICA.
Keep us, 0 God, from pettiness;
let us be large in thought, in
word, in deed.
Let us be done with fault -finding
and leave off self-seeking,
May we put away all pretense and
meet each other face to face
without self-pity and without
prejudice.
May we never be hasty in judg
ment and always generous.
Teach us to put into action our
better impulses, straight-forward
and unafraid.
Let us take time for all things;
make us grow calm, serene
and gentle.
Grant that we may realize it is the
little things that create differ
ences; that in the big things of
life we are as one.
And may we strive to touch and
to know the great common
woman's heart of us all; and 0
Lord God, let us not forget to
to be kind.

will multiply by the million over
night, in a damp, musty cellar.
Make a solution of Red Seal Lye
and sprinkle into all the dark
corners, and all mustiness will
immediately disappear, leaving
your cellar fresh and sweet
smelling.
If your kitchen sink does not
drain quickly, here is an immediate
remedy. Sift a little Red Seal Lye
into the pipes. The lye wilt com
bine with the grease and dirt,
forming a solution which will be
carried off quickly by the water,
leaving the pipes free and clean.
Housewives may save money by
making their own soap. All that
is needed is one can of Red Seal
Lye and a quantity of waste urease
or fat, such as would ordinarily be
thrown away. The one can will
make twenty cakes of pure soap
at less than one cent per cake. See
hsjw quickly and easily Red Seal
Lye will clean the wash-stand, tub
or closet bowl.
Red Seal Lye ii put up in handy round
tana. It tonuiii no tiller or adultet auont,
It i-i absolutely pure.

CALOMEL
SALIVATES EVEN
WHEN CAREFUL
Treacherous Drug Cannot
Be Trusted and Next
Dose May Start
Trouble
Calomel is dangerous. It may
salivate you and make you suffer
fearfully from soreness of gums,
tenderness of jaws and teeth, swoll
en tongue and excessive saliva
dribbling from the mouth. Don't
trust calomel. It is mercury; quick
silver. If you feel bilious, headachy,
constipated and all knocked out,
just go to your druggist and get a
bottle of Dudson's Liver Tone for
a few cents which is a harmless
vegetable substitute for dangerous
calomel. Take a spoonful and if
it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quick-
ep than nasty calomel and without
making you sick, you just go back
and get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll
be sick and nauseated tomorrow;
besides, it may salivate you, while
if you take Dodson's Liver Tone
you will wake up feeling great.
No salts necessary. Give it to the
children because it is perfectly
harmless and cannot salivate.
