Cured His RUPTURE
I was badly ruptured while lifting a trunk
several years ago. Doctors said my only
hops of cure was an operation. Trusses did
me no good. Finally I got hold of some
thing that quickly and completely cured me.
Tears have passed and the ruptnre has never
returned, although I am doing hard work as
a carpenter. There was no operation, no
lost time, no trouble. I have nothing to
sell, but will jgive full information about
how you may find a complete cure without
operation, if you write to me. Eugene Mi
Pullen, Carpenter, 856-F Marcellus Avenue,

tured—you may save a life or at least stop
the misery of rupture and the worry and
danger of an operation.— (Advt.)

AUNT JULIA’S
LETTER BOX
Dear Children:
I am giving you an honor roll this issue and a statement as to
our funds in batik. We have exactly $35.94 in the bank and I have
three large bundles of letters yet to be opened. We can, I believe
get our scholarship money by Christmas, and one more little child
less blest than we are will benefit by your kindness. You know,
children, there is only your own desire to do good that should
prompt you to give, and as I told you many times, it is better for
you to earn in some way the money for your own charity work.
Lovingly,
AUNT JULIA.
P. S.—Agnes Wells, I haven’t yet received your address so am
sending a letter to Chatsworth, 11. F. D. If it doesn’t reach you in a
reasonable time, please make inquiry.

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Will you
admit a boy from this section of Georgia to
your band of happy boys and girls? Come
again. Miss Mabel Moses, your letter was
indeed Interesting, and your subject was
good. Just think what a miserable old
world this would be if it were not for music.
I am an ex-soldier, spent five years in the
United States army; during that time I had
some traveling experience, one and two
thirds years in New York, two months in
California, three years Territory Hawaii.,
Wonder if it will be interesting to any if
I write a few things regarding Honolulu,
Hawaii’s capital. The city of Honolulu oc
cupies a plain about ten miles in length, on
the peaceful southeast shore of the Island of
Oahu, extending inland three or four miles
in some places and less in others, accord
ing to the varying width of the lowland
strip upon which most of the city is built.
It is between a range of mountains and
the Pacific ocean, radiating from a natural
harbor which has been greatly enlarged by
dredging and blasting and which can truth
fully be said to never know a storm. Unique
in- the character of its cosmopolitan popula
tion, more varied than that of any other
American city; in the unchanging mildness
of its climate; in its location as an Ameri
can center of enterprise and influence in
an area bigger than that of the United
States (for Honolulu by cable, wireless and
steamer, reaches out to the Far East and to
the Antipodes); without comparison in its
importance as a strategic military and naval
center for America’s international welfare,
Honolulu is also probably the holder of a
'world record in the matter of size. As
political division is probably the largest
city on earth. For fear Aunt Julia will
give this to the wastebasket, must stop
this. Will describe myself, am 24 years of
age, five feet five inches tall, weigh 135
pounds. Would like to correspond with some
of the cousins. A new cousin,

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: I am a
stranger to you all, but you are not to me,
as I always read the letters and enjoy them j
very much. I have often thought of writ
ing and asking for admittance to your
happy band of boys and girls, but always
left my space for a more gifted writer, but
I just can’t resist the temptation any long
er, eo I hope you. Aunt Julia, will deem
this worthy of print. I live on the farm
and have a very beautiful country home. I
like country life fine, especially in tlje
good old summer time, when I can attend
singings, protracted meetings and picnics,
though I don’t have the opportunity that
some girls have, as my mother was taken
from me when I was only two years old,
and I'm the only child at home, so you see
I'm “daddy’s housekeeper.” I am a blonde
and am 19 years old. Who has my birth

to hear from any of the cousins. Love to

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: With much
pleasure I shall write a few words to your
most enjoyable circle, at least I will try.
I have been a silent reader for quite a
while. I think your page is just grand,
especially for the young people. How many
of you cousins like to go to school? I do
for one, though I’m now assisting at Foun
tain Head school, five miles north of Bain
bridge. Guess you all are wondering how
I look, and where I live, so here goes: Dark
hair, blue eyes and a medium complexion,
weight 120 pounds, am five feet three inches
tall, aged seventeen. I live on a farm, near
the little town of Climax, in Decatur coun
ty, Ga. Are any of your cousins a member
of the canning club? I am for one. I won
lots of prizes last year: First prize, a §35

time will come again. Your new niece and

you. I am a little Marietta guy. Some of
you cousins should visit me some time. Ma
rietta is a grand, little place, not. so excit
ing, but nice and clean; the very place for
your summer resort. Have mother and daddy
to buy it. Am sure you will be pleased.
If you learn nothing else, you’ll learn to
play basketball. Guess you are wondering
how I look, but I am only going to tell you
this: I look good and have always looked
that way; and am ten years old. Love to
auntie and cousins. From little

Good Rings Necessary
To Prevent Spoilage
Spoilage of canned goods fre
quently has been traced to the use
of poor rubber rings. The fruit or
vegetable canned may be fresh from
the garden, the jars and tops may
be perfect and absolutely clean, the
processing may be done in the right
way for the right length of time,
but if the rubber rings are not re
liable, much of the good work goes
for naught.
The best quality of rubber ring
is needed by the housekeeper who
uses any method of canning in
which the ring is heated with the
jar -and its contents. If the rubber
ring develops imperfections after it
has been Ifeated the required time,
it is necessary to replace it and
again process the jar. Canning dem
onstrators of the United States de
partment of agriculture- have been
studying the requirements of a good
rubber ring in order to eliminate
this cause of canning trouble.
Tests of thousands of rings dis
closed the fact that color, despite
popular opinion, has nothing to do
with the quality or strength of the
rubber. A ring should be able to
support a weight of 13 pounds
without breaking.
To make a perfect seal, rubber
rings should possess elasticity
enough to take up the unevenness
of the jar and the cover, and be
strong enough to resist cutting when
the seal is made. A ring that can
not be folded or pinched without
breaking is useless for canning by
methods in which the ring is heat
ed (processed) with the .jar and
contents. |
Wbat to Do to the
Skin in Eczema
The external treatment of eczema
depends on the Intensity, the stage
of the disease and its duration, says
Dr. J. S. Eisenstaedt, of Chicago, in
an aadress before the Chicago Medi
cal society. Those substances which ,
produce irritation of the skin should
first be eliminated from the patient’s
Surroundings.
In severe and generalized or ex
tensive cases the patient should not
wear starched linen or other articles
of dress which rub against the in
flamed parts. He should be confined
to his room and should not exert him
self, so as not to become overheat
ed, which aggravates the condition.
Next, the skin should be treated with
preparations which tend to alleviate
the itching and to cause the inflam
matory process to retrograde..
There is no specific medication for
the disease. Each case requires
therapy based on the clinical picture
at the time the patient comes under
treatment. The physician should not
change too rapidly from one type of
medication to another. If a given
preparation or combination causes
improvement, it should be continued
until improvement ceases. Nothing
is so fruitless, nothing capses more
harm, than irrational, ever-changing
therapeutics.
But Distance Cannot Part
Mighty oceans towering mountains
and rivers deep and wide
With thousands of long desert
leagues me from my love di
vide . . .
Yet not that daunting distance nor
lowering skies above
Can stop my nightly visit in Dream
land to my love.

Ingalls, N. 0.
Good morning, Aunt Julia and cousins! 1
wonder how each and every one of you are
getting along. I have written several times,
but Aunt Julia would not print it. But
maybe she had too many letters to print,
and mine was one to be left out. I think
The Journal is a grand paper, and it sure
was nice in the editor to let us have a
space in the dear old Journal. Mama takes
the paper and we all think it is a fine
paper. 1 think th,ere is nothing better than
the dear old United States. How did you all
enjoy Christmas? I had a fine time. The
weather is bad, but I go to school anyway,
and like to go to school. I think every boy
and girl ought to strive to get an education.
I have just gotten back from school and
haven’t studied any for tomorrow. I will
describe myself and go: Brown hair and eyes,
dark complexion, 5 feet 5y 2 inches tall,
weigh about'lo3 pounds, am twelve years
old. My birthday is the Sth of August. I
will close with love to all.

Dear Aunt .Julia and Cousins: Will you
please admit an Alabama girl into your
happy band? I have been a constant reader
of the Letter Box for some tlime, and do
enjoy it so much. What do you cousins do
for a good time? I am not having a very
delightful time now, as I am taking a busi
ness course and don’t find any time for en
joyment. M'y home is in Clayton. I live in
the country, and do so enjoy country life.
Do any of the cousins like horseback riding
and hunting? Ido for one; also like tatting
and crocheting. Cousins, don’t think J
have gone back on the country, for I haven’t.
Well, as it is a rule to describe yourself, I
guess I had better begin: I am 5 feet 2
inches, weigh 126 pounds, have black hair,
brown eyes, am dark complected and am
seventeen years old. As I hear Mr. W. B.
coming, I guess I had better close, ,Any
letters received from both girls and boys will
be answered. With love to Aunt Julia and
cousins, KATHLEEYN KENNEDY.

The Country Home
BY MRS. W. H. FELTON
High. Cost of Living'
Having occasion to visit a shoe
store today seeking a pair of low
heel, low-quartered comfort shoes
for my aged feet, I found some cus
tomers ahead of me. So I sat down
and waited my turn to be served by
the shoe-clerks. Among those ahead
of me were two young colored wom
en, who were very busy looking for
shoes. It was a long look, to be
sure!
Then they left the store without
purchasing shoes, when the store
keeper came to serve me he said: “I
couldn’t suit those colored women.
The shoes were not fine enough.”
There was a whole lesson in his re
mark. They wanted the most ex
pensive and the shoes they exam
ined were below twelve and fifteen
dollars, so J: hey went elsewhere to
pried and purchase shoes at higher
figures. I may speak from the
wrong viewpoint, but I am here to
say, our general public has' gone
crazy on spending. They will buy
automobiles, when they do not own
homes. They must have French
heels and sharp pointed toes on their
shoes. They must buy at least two
hats in the spring and two- in the
fall. They could hardly explain to
their society circles, why they
couldn’t buy one, and wear one
awhile —and then get ahother, if
anything happened to the headwear,
but they must provide at least two.
They have settled it in their minds,
that they must buy the highest
priced things, and buy them as
quickly as possible ,and every one
of them are like those young col
ored women—who couldn’t think of
wearing even a six or seven dollar
shoe, for economy’s sake.
Shoes and hats are not going to
decline in price, while the foolish
spenders are still demented on the
question of high-priced hats and
shoes.
The people who sell things are
well-pleased when prices soar, and
with customers who will not wear a
shoe or a hat under ten dollars.
Oh! these thoughtless spenders!!
There has never been a time in the
history of the human race, when lux
urious and expensive living did not
break the virile strength of human
kind. Reaction always follows times
of wastefulness and extravagant
habits.
When the pendulum swings away
out, on the side of foolish spending,
it has naturally to swing back again
to the other side; and that other side
thereafter spells PANIC—
When the Civil War of the ’6os
came to an end the northern people;
who had bought government bonds,
at about thirty and forty cents in the
dollar, and who had made millions
out of army contracts—and bijlions
out of shoddy stuff sold to the fed
eral government—they too had this
insane craze for buying everything
that was fine, which was offered for
sale. They were called snobs at that
time and they were never satisfied
except they were buying fine clothes
—fine jewels, etc., etc.
The poor old South—was saved
from this insane power of spend
thrifts, because the people had to get
down to brass tacks and earn enough
to feed and clothe themselves —by
their own efforts. There is there
fore, some good in even defeat and
commercial disaster.
It is better and safer to walk
steady and erect down on the dirt
road than to mount up on stilts and
go headlong into senseless extrava
gance and foolish spending. We were
glad to go slow down in Dixie—and
renew the struggle for a plain and
sensible and honest method of get
ting along. ,
We are told that Belgium is now
. picking up astonishingly. They have
gone down to plain hard work —and
are fast getting on their feet again
—by reason of steady industry and
straight-forw’ard economies.
If our American citizens would
only take the same view of things
—practice economy in buying—and
laying up some of their high wage
money in savings banks—we would
very soon bring down this enormous
high cost of living. But there is no
salvation without suffering. Our
foolish ones will take no advice and
like those silly young colored wom
en—they are going to fling away
that income on shoes and hats and
such like, until the money will fade
out—in the future.

MARY MEREDITH'S ADVICE
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
Here comes a lonely girl to you for
advice. I have written to you be
fore and have received good advice.
My home is in Arkansas.
What will make the hair grow
long and thick? What will remove
moles from the face?
I corresponding with a soldier
boy whom I have never seen and
he sent me his picture and asked me
to send him mine. I wrote him that
I would send him one later that I
didn’t have one that I should like to
send at present. T have never heard
from him since. What So you think
made him quit?
I am going to leave my age for
you to guess. Do you think I am
old or young?
Please answer all of my .questions
through The Journal. Thanking you
for your advice.
BLUE EYED SUSIE.
P. S.—Should I write to the soldier
and ask him why he quit?
Blue-eyed Sussie: There are
lots of different kinds of hair
tonics claimed to grow hair and
to strengthen the roots of
scragly hair and make it thick
er, but I cannot tell you posi
tively whether it is so, or not.
Olive oil is very good, if used
regularly three times a week.
Heat about a tablespoonful of
the oil, at the roots, using a
rotary motion so as to loosen
the scalp also to start the blood
circulating. You must keep it
up if you want results. Wash
your hair about once a month
and dry it in the sun if you can.
Look to your general health, a
run-down condition has lots to
do'with one’s hair falling out.
Nervousness, is another cause.
The only method 1 know to re
move moles, is the electric
needle. You had better con
sult a physician about that.
I think the soldier boy got
tired of writing to you, and then
again he wanted to see what you
looked like. You were wise not
to send him your picture.' Sol
diers wrote many letters to dif
ferent girls just to pass the
time. Some of them really had a
love affair, but there were many
who were only having fun over
the letters they received from
girls. No, I certainly would not
write to the soldier and ask him
why he quit. I cannot judge your
age. and would not tell you if I
could because I do not think that
is -"-oper. It makes no differ
ence to me how old you are. I
get letters from girls, boys, men
and women, so have them all
ages.
I am coming to you again for
your good advise. Have written
twice before, but failed to see my
letter in print. When a boy has ac
companied you home from an enter
tainment, and upon his leaving,
what should be the proper words to
use in asking him to call again?
Is it proper for a boy to offer
you chewing gum? What kind of
cold cream is best to use on the
face? Is Violet Dulce cold cream
harmless to use on face, and will
it not cause the g-rowth of hair on
face or neck?
Are there any simple home reme
dies which one could use to make
their voice strong and • pleasant?
Please print as soon as possible.
Sincerely yours,
AGNES.
When a young man has invited
you to go with him to an enter
tainment and you accept it, and
•he brings you home, and you
want him to call again, when he
is about to leave you, just say
that you had a pleasant time or
a lovely time, and you appre
ciated the thought which
prompted him to ask you. And
some time if he hasn’t anything
better to do, call and see you,
you will be glad tb hear him
talk, as he talks so interesting
ly, and you want to know him.
In a polite manner there is a
way to do everything. But don’t
be gushing, he might get dis
gusted. You are only doing the
polite and courteous thing when
you ask him to call. After you
have expressed a desire to see
him again that is an invitation
for him to call, and it is up to
him to do so. If he fails to take
advantage of your invitation, he
does not care to cultivate you

further. So there is nothing to
be done. There is no harm in
accepting a stick of gum from
a boy. It doesn’t look very nice
to see a girl chew it, that’s the
harm. There are so many good
brands of cold cream on the mar
ket I cannot tell you which one
to use. The* kind you mention
ed is very good. Lemon juice
is very good to relieve the hus
kiness in the throat. Train your
ear to listen to your voice, keep
it at an even pitch when talk
ing and if it is weak, do not
try to talk when there is a
noise. Always speak low. It is
a sign of refinement. Keep your
head clear of colds, colds have
an effect on the voice.
I am coming to you for advice. I
am a lonely girl of eighteen sum
mers. Am 5 feet four inches tall,
fair complected, blue eyes, auburn
hair and weigh 130 pounds. Do you
think my weight is sufficient? What
colors will suit me best? Do you
know of anything that will make
my complexion clear? Do you think
I write a good hand? My eyes are
very weak. My parents are not
good to me. They won’t hardly let
me go anywhere. They say I have
no business running around. They
won’t allow me to reason things
with them. They are suspicious of
me writing to boys. They won’t
allow me to talk to boys. I think
I am old enough to have a few
boy friends. Will close, hoping to
see this in print in the Tri-Weekly
Journal. BLUE EYES.
P. S. I am just crazy to ’go to
the girls’ canning clubs right close
by home. Do you think it would be
a nice place for me?
Blue Eyes: And so you really
have blue eyes and auburn hair,
.that is a very attractive combi
nation. But you must take care
of your complexion so you will
always look well. Girls with
red hair have very thin skin
as a rule, and for 'that reason
they should protect it as much
as possible from the wind and
sun. Use a good cold cream, and
clean the pores every night
when you go out, use a disap
pearing cream, and put pow
der on'over that, but don’t cake
it, just fluff it lightly over the
face. Use buttermilk a couple of
nights a week before you re
tire and let it dry on the face.
In the morning bathe the face
in cold water. Drink plenty of
water during the day, and eat
very sparingly of sweets, or
greasy gravies and meats. Stick
to dull colors, a red-haired girl
cannot wear loud colors and
look well. ; If your parents are
suspicious of you, that is an
awful way to be. It has a ten
dency to make you want to do
something against their will.
Confidence is a great thing and
to feel that some one believes
in you makes you want to do
right for their sake. Encourage
ment and confidence will work
wonders for the man or woman
who are weak. It is a prop for
them to lean upon. Parents
cannot expect to have their chil
dren turn out well when they
are constantly saying things to
them which gives birth to ideas
of wrong doing when the child
has not meant any harm. The
power of thought is a wonderful
thing, and you tell a child it is
mean, and it is selfish, what
does one expect that child to
be. He feels like grown people
do, “What’s the use.” I cannot
see any harfn in going to the
girl’s’ canning club. It might
prove beneficial to you.

FAINTING ANO
DIZZY SPELLS
The Cause of such Symp
toms and Remedy Told
in This Letter.
Syracuse, N. Y. —“When I com
menced the Change of Life I was
poorly, had no
appetite and had
fainting spells. I
suffered for two
or three years
before I began
taking Lydia E.
Pinkham’s Vege
table Compound
and Liver Pills
which I saw ad
vertised in the
papers and in
your little books.
I
T took about 12 bottles of your Vege
table Compound and found it a won
derful remedy. I commenced to pick
up at once and my suffering was re
lieved. I have told others about vour
medicine and know of some who Have
taken it. I am glad to help others
all I can." —Mrs. R. E. Deming, 437
W. Lafayette Ave., Syracuse, N. Y.
While Change of Life is a most
critical period of a woman’s exist
ence, the annoying symptoms which
accompany it may be controlled, and
normal health restored by the timely
use of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Cpmpound.
Moreover, this reliable remedy con
tains no narcotics or harmful drugs
and owes its efficiency to the medici
nal extractives of the native roots
and herbs which it contains.

New Invention Sent on 30 Days’ Trial With
out Expense to You
Simply send me your name and I will
send you my new copyrighted rupture book
and measurement blank. When you return
the blank I will send you my new invention
for rupture. When it arrives put it on and
wear it. Put it to every test you can think

along with the old style cruel spring truss
es or belts with leg straps of torture. Your
own good, common Sense and your own doc
tor will tell you it is the only way in which
you can ever expect a cure. After wearing
it 30 days, if it is not entirely satisfactory
in every way—if it is not easy and com
fortable—if you cannot actually see your
rupture getting better, and if not convinced
that a cure is merely a question of tisas.
just return it and you are out nothing. Any
rupture appliance sent on 30 days’ trial with
out expense to you is worth a trial. Tell
your ruptured friends of this. EASYHOLD
