which will solicit funds.
To Spend Money Here
The money to be collected will be
spent here. The materials will be
bought from local merchants; then the
work of sewing them Into comfortable
garments for the stricken sufferers in
Kurope will be performed by needy
women of this city, who will receive
the rest of the money contributed for
their work. Double charity, this, but
the greater portion for those at home.

borhood committees are:

to southern city limits; from the river
to the Pennsylvania railroad above
Paxton street, and below Paxton street

and solicit aid. No one will be urged
to contribute—merely asked.
Soliciting work will begin about
January 25 and continue until the en
tire city has been covered. Contribu
tions or pledges of weekly or month
ly amounts will be received. Scores of
the results of the various solicitors will
be kept at headquarters, 7 South Front
street. Announcement of the names
of accredited solicitors will be made
later.

HOM TO TKI.Ij WHEN A
MAN' IS SMOIiINK TOO MICH
In the February Woman's Home
Companion ttollin
an article entitled "Swearing Off,"
which Is the confession of an ex
smoker. He says that there are some
clear cases of men who are Rmoklng
too* much, and then he goes on in
part as follows:
"What constitutes a clear case?
Authorities differ. So do individuals.
What Is one smoker's death warrant
may be another smoker's guide to a
miserable longevity. For my own
I am reluctant to lay down any hard
and fast rule for the detection and
conviction of a clear case, and yet
those I, chiefly suspect are these:
"The man who smokes at his work
as well as at home.
"The man who wants a pipe before
breakfast.
"The man who must light cigarcts
between the courses of a restaurant
dinner.
"The man who looks as If he hnß
lost his last friend whenever he is de
prived of smoke for two or threa
hours.
The man whose hand trbles, who
has off' days, and who thinks he must
smoke in to work.

"Don't have setting up drill any
more. Modern tactics consist mainly
..of flattening: yourself and burrowing."
