Mrs. C. R. Edwards, Boston, Wife of
Major General, Helps Unfortunate
Men Help Themaelvea.
Helping the disabled war veteran to
kelp himself la the hobby of Mrs. Clar-
ence B. Edwa rds
of Boston, wife of
Major General Ed-
wards, who com-
manded the Twen-
ty-sixth division
In France, and a
prominent mem-
ber of the Ameri-
can Legion aux-
iliary.
One of Mrs. Ed-
wards' most Im-
portant achieve-
ments has been
the founding of
in exchange In Boston where disabled
veterans may sell the products they
nanufacture during the long days
spent In hospitals recovering from
war wounds and disabilities. .
Starting April 10 with a capital of
52,000 contributed by friends, Mrs. Ed-
wards hired an ex-service man as
nanuger and opened the exchange In
i downtown location. Success attend-
;d the venture from the start aftd It
ias put thousands of dollars in the
pockets of needy World war heroes.
The exchange takes all articles on
?onsignment and when they are sold,
;he money is forwarded to the hospital
jr to the Individual patient at the end
jf the month.
The disabled men have exhibited an
unusual versatility in the articles pro-
luced for sale, according to Mrs. Ed
wards. "One boy makes little canoes
and paints them In pretty colors," Mrs.
Edwards stated. "In one month we
have sold $75 worth of canoes ranging
n price from 85 rents to $1.50. String
belts, girdles and curtain pulls are
-ery popular. A very good market has
teen developed for a veteran who
makes hand-woven homespuns. Jute
rut's for piazzas and woven rugs for
bathrooms are also favorites. All kinds
;>f hammered jewelry and leather cov>
ers and cases are good sellers."
Mrs. Edwards' exchange hps been
authorized by the national convention
of the American Legion auxiliary to
sell articles made by veterans in hos
pitnIs of Maine, New Hampshire. Ver-
mont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island,
Connecticut, New York, New Jersey,
Del awn re, Maryland, Pennsylvania and
the District of Columbia.
TEACHER PAYS IT
GLOWING TRIBUTE
Declares Tanlac Ended Indiges-

tation—Lost Strength
Restored.
"Tanlac hag Improved my general
condition ten times more than I antici-
pated," recently stated Herbert A. Gup-
tlll, a well-known school teacher of
Kezar Falls, Maine.
"My trouble began with a sudden
loss of strength. Almost everything I
ate disagreed with me and caused a
ilctenlng sensation that remained with
me for hours. For months I found
breathing difficult on account of in-
digestion, and had such chest pains
and palpitation I thought my heart was
affected. I also suffered greatly from
headaches and nervousness, seldom
slept well, and felt tired and worn-
out all the time.
"Since taking Tanlac no kind of food
hurts me and I have a wonderful ap-
petite. I have gained ten pounds,
breathe freely, sleep perfectly, and feel
as strong and well as ever in my life.
Tanlac is certainly a superior medi-
cine."

The Proud Rat Catcher
The witty Oliver Herford was talk-
ing about snobbishness.
'I know a city missionary," he said,
"who invited a famous bishop to dine
at his slum residence to meet two local
characters, a garbage collector and a
rat catcher.
"The bishop accepted the Invitation
gladly, and the garbage collector said
that he, too, would be delighted, but
the rat catcher spoiled the party. He
must refuse, he said, to sit down with
a garbage collector."
As a matter of fact, your neighbors
think just as disagreeable things
about you as you think about them.

FATHER SAT IN JUDGMENT
Daddy's Realization of Audience's
Suffering Brought Amateur Per-
formance to Sudden Close.
Maggie was ten years of age, I but
eight. We were on the program of a
public school exhibition for a duet
and considered ourselves letter per-
fect. Maggie played the accompani-
ment, repeating the last line of each
verse for an interlude. There were
tour lines to each verse.
It was about "Three little graves
ranged side by side," and was most
pathetic.
After /sve had been singing a while
my father surprised me by coming up
and grasping one o fmy arms; without
saying a word, he led me away from
the stage. I don't know how Mag-
gie left the stage.
"Why, pa," I exclaimed, "we weren't
half through. There were thirty-three
verses and we had sung only eleven
of them."
"Yes," father replied, "and that was
more than enough!"—Chicago Tribune.
Every man hugs the delusion that
sooner or later he will invent some-
thing that will make him rich.
Eternal Main Street.
A friend of the Woman's who lives
far uptown hates the country and its
people.
"The last time I was In the coun-
try," she said, "there was a runaway
down the village street, and everyone
came out and looked at it. Poor dears,
of course they haven't much excite-
ment, but I did feel so sorry for them.
I just felt a kind of pity for them. I
hate everything that Main street
stands for."
Just then, as they got down on the
street from the elevated, a crashing
noise indicated that one automobile
had collided with another. Ih a sec-
ond people were running toward it
from all directions, and the Woman's
friend—she, too, had vanished!
Poor dears! And all of them be
lieved they were * so unlike Main
streeters.—New-York Sun.
Thought Misapplied.
Thought Is the most powerful force
on this earth, yet most of our thought
Is foolishly wasted in idle gossip or
in slandering someone whom we pos-

always In connection with something
that is none of their business.

WHY PROFESSOR LEFT TOWN
Slight Misunderstanding, but Alto-
gether More Than He Felt Ho
Might Be Able to Explain.
Some years ago, while a professor
of an eastern university, I made a
trip Vest, stopping en route, where
I was entertained at dinner by friends
socially prominent in that city. Only
three relatives of the host were in-
vited. including an elderly woman
whom I believed to be Mrs. Anderson.
Discussing marriage and the num-
ber of unmarried women in New Eng-
land, I made this sage remark: "I
have been told that since the oppor-
tunities for marriage are so much
greater in the West, it is considered
a disgrace to be an old maid."
My hostess now kindly informed me
that the woman directly opposite me,
on her left, was Miss Anderson.—De-
troit Free Press.
Collections.
"Do you think collections can be
made in Europe?"
",I. can't say this early," replied Sen-
ator Sorghum. "Up to the present
moment some of those nations don't
seem to me to have gotten even so far
as to collect their thougWs."—Wash-
ington Star.

Mr. Swivel was much perturbed to
find that the three pounds of meat
which he had purchased for dinner
had mysteriously disappeared. His
wife, aiding in the search and noticing
what she took to be a guilty look on
the face of the family cat, pointed to
it, and said:
"There's the meat."
"Why. no,'" objected Swivel, "that
little thing couldn't get away with
three pounds of meat Still, let's weigh
her and find out."
They did so. The scales registered
an even three pounds.
"Yes," he admitted in puzzled.tones,
"there's the meat all right, but where's
the cat?"—American Legion Weekly.
