PUTMAN'S DRUG STORE The REXALL Store C 3 BETTY'S LIFE SAVED BY USE OF RED CROSS SEALS She Was Taught How to Care For Herself After Her Mother Had Died "She was real pretty, and so full of fun that the dimples were always showing in her round, red cheeks." The visiting nurse of the Anti-Tuberculosis Society was talking-. "Her eyes were biff and brown and nut-colored hair curled naturally in little ringlets over her forehead and ears. She was just eighteen when we first met her and so neat and attractive that one would think she belonged ta the well-to-do class of working people, but when we followed her to her home j one day we co?ifronted startling facte. l ne red m her checks was the flusn of unnatural inward fever, the high spirits were a pitiful antidote to piti- less conditions, and the big brown eyes saw only squalor when they were not fixed upon a typewriting machine or closed persistently to any view but an imaginary bright one. "The Toom we entered was a gen era! living space, used also as an eat intc, cooking a?.d sleeping apartment. Thure was but one bed, and Betty had to sleep in it -with her mother, who was too weak to sit up. An open cuspidor sat where it would be con veniently near the bed, which placed it by the stove, where their food was cooked. The mother who was suffer ing in an advanced stage of tuber culosis, did not like cold oir, and her i querolous demands caused Betty to keep the door and windows closed. " 'Well,' said cheerful Betty, with a laugh, 'that isn't so bad as not hav ing any windows or doors to close, is it? Things might be worse.' " Tjiimtely worse,' said I. You might even take a notion to stuff the windows and doore with rage to cut ( out what oxygen comes through thf;j cracks,' . j "Red Cross Christmas Seals, with their cheery message of hope, gave j Betty chance to get well after her ! mother died. Is it worth while to nvc the Bettys? Buy your share today."

The lists contain the titles of many attractive books, which are lea expensive than some of those on ex hibition. "If young people are encouraged to demand the latest instead of the best books, a tendency now 1I too mast fest among adult readers will be ac centuated. There is grave dangsr" that the race will develop a ragtime disposition, a moving picture habit and a comic suppliment mind." Henry E. Legler, librarian Chicago Public library. Rugs Rugs Rugs!
