however, is being discountenanced by
the authorities, and families whose
members are able to stand in line are
compelled to make their own purchases.
Nptwithstanding the hundreds of peo
ple, men and women have become pro
fessional food-card-purchasing agents.
PUBLIC SOUP KITCHENS.
Then there are the public soup-kitchen
patrons. The people who are des
titute are given cards by the municipali
ty, entitling the holder to two dishes of
soup each day. The lines before the
kitchens are still longer, and those who
are compellel to apply for the municipal
charity are mostly composed of former
middle class men and women, whose
income has been wiped out since the
war, and who have no means of earn
ing a livelihood.
Passing by one of these long public
soup-kitchen lines, my comrades often
called my attention to men who had
been in comfortable circustances law
yers, educators and small shop keepers.
Three times my comrades pointed out
to me elderly gentlemen who had held
high salaried positions at banks. I
saw in another charity line an old im
porter whose entire wealth was wiped
out since the war and who now was
compelled to take his place among the
penniless. Women in mourning com
pose half of those who are obliged to
apply for municipal charity.
The soup is not, however, served on
the premises. Each person brings a
soup pail, and when their turn is
reached in the line they receive the
liquid which is falsely labeled 'soup.'
This matter, the ingredients of which
are a deep mystery, is carried home and
eaten at their own table. It is mostly
absolutely no fats or other substantial
materials in the soup. It is mostly
made of vegetable fat and resembles
dish water very much while its odor
was to me, most offensive.

MORAL ADVERTISE
The life of a normal woman should
be active, it matters not what her social
status may' be. Nnfortunately, circum
stances force many women to do more
than their; share of work. woman
may spend ;her time either in a.factory,
home, office or drawing room, but must
have occupation if she is to retain her
health. -
In Wilmington, N. C, there is a wo
man, Mrs.lT. T. Kerr, wife of a County
Commissioner and socially prominent,
who. would not submit to the inactivity
paused by ill health. She wanted to be
up and doing, and this is her account
of how she brought about the change:
"I wa stroubled with indigestion, my
appetite was poor, I could not sleep
and felt tired and worn out all the time.
I have taken two bottles of Peplac and
it has helped me wonderfully. Now I
feel different, my appetite is greatly
improved, my nerves are stronger and
I sleep better than I have for a long
time. In fact, I am now doing a little
sewing, something I have not been able
to do before taking Peplac, and I feel
myself growing stronger every day. I
am glad to recommend Peplac as I
know that all suffering people will ap
preciate the relief if will bring to
them.,'
Peplac brught health and energy to
Mrs. Kerr and it will do it for every
woman who is tired and run down.
Peplac is recommended and sold in
Greenville by the Grenville Drug Co.,

The war is costing the combined allies more than $30,000,000
an hour. The daily fate of this huge sum is simple waste. A
shortening of the war by days or even hours would mean the re
demption of colossal waste.
We must bend every financial effort towards shortening the
war. Every small amount invested by a child in Thrift Stamps tends
towards this end. The influence of every Thrift Stamp purchased is
a little momentum toward earlier victory.
Thus a child's savings may be instrumental in definitely shor
tening this war and in saving many times its own value in money,
to say nothing of conserving human life.
Encourage your child to invest in 4 per cent interest-bearing
Thrift Stamps instead of merely hoarding his pennies in a tin bank.
Thrift Stamps cost 25 cents each and may be bought at the
postoffice, from your mail carrier and at most stores.
