The interest and receipts have been daily increasing. The Shop Thermometer, registering from 0 to $2000, has gone "over the top". Every article of every description, both ornamental and useful, bric-a- brac, jewelry, furniture, etc., is most gratefully received and sold to help augment this fund. Over $100 was realized on the China and Glassware sale. The string of opals, valued at $200, were sold to Mrs. Edward Yoemans for $50. The beautiful gold-embosed tortoise set of jewels, donated by Mrs. Robson, was purchased by Mrs. Harrison Mettler. A coral necklace, purchased in Naples, valued at $100, has just been received, and will be appraised at very much than original value. Now is the time for the women of Winnetka to change their form of investment, and transfer their neck- laces, jewels, and other assets into money that will send succor and re- lief to those abroad who are home- less and helpless. How can we hold back anything that will relieve the desperate need of the women and children in France? These are the days that test our true generosity. We can sell every beautiful thing that is donated, as well as every common, practical ar- ticle. Every day the Shop telephone rings with requests for articles of furniture that are needed. Recently several very good toilet sets were sent in for sale. We now have re- quests for: Andirons, library globe, Franklin stove, iron fire basket, small writing desk, fire screen, lib- rary scissors, child's bed, rugs, silver candle sticks, chest of drawers, baby go-cart, velocipede, dresden cande sticks, pottery tea pot, oil stove, brass candle sticks, baby carriage, book rack, Venetian sketch, lamp stand, card 'table covers, ice box, baby clothes, infants pins, roller skates, a music bench, meat grinder, mahogany mirror, single bed, small book case, baby's high chair, lady's less evening, | the | clean | bicycle.
