GEORGIA FARMER SAYS HE COULONI ■K HIS COFFEE South Georgia Man Says His Hands Were So Shaky and Trembly It Would Spill From the Cup. One of the strongest evidences of the rapidly growing popularity of Tanlac and of the wonderful results it is ac complishing is the large number of let ters that are being received daily from well known men and women through out the south. On yesterday alone, letters were re ceived from three states front grateful users of Tanlac. and their statements are. Indeed, remarkable. Among the number was t ie following letters from W. F. Craw lord, a well known farmer who lives at Ocilla. Ga His letter follows. Mr. G. F. Willis, Atlanta. Ge: Dear Str—l suffered a general nervous breakdown, or that is what the doctors pronounced my case. I had worked hard all of my life till about a year ago I quit off. I was very nervous and restless and couldn't sleep at night. My hands were so shaky or trembly, I couldn't hardly hold a newspaper steady enough to read it. When I would go to drink my coffee, my hand trembled so the cof fee would shake from the cup. I bought Tanlac because I had hear! so much good it was doing others in my condition, and from the advice of my local druggist. After using two bottles of Tanlac I am now able to pas* coffee to my mouth as good as any body. My nerves are as steady as they were when I was a young man. I am now proud to recommend Tanlac to anybody suffering any nervous dis turbance whatever, because it has done me a world of good, and I think that It is the best medicine in the world, and I feel like every body ought to know about It. that tt might relieve other poor nervous men and women. T am now 74 years old and have been a farmer all my life. Worked hard, but I tell you I feel like doing some more of it now. If you doubt this, just visit my son, A T. Crawford, at Ocilla. Ga.. and see for yourself. W. F. CRAWFORD. Tanlac Is sold by leading druggists in all principal towns of the south.

Text of German Note on Sussex (By Associated Press.? BERLIN. April 13.—Following Is the text of the German note on the Sussex, dated April 10, as given here to the As sociated Press correspondent: "Undersigned has the honor to inform your excellency, Ambassador Gerard, in response to communica tions of the 29th and 30th ultimo and’ the 3d instant regarding the steamers Sussex, Manchester En gineer, Englishman, Berwindvale and Eagle Point, that the mentioned cases In accordance with our notes of the 30th and 31st ultimo and the 4th and sth instant. have been subjected to careful investigation by which the admiral stafl of the navy, which has led to the follow ing results: TWO STEAMERS SUNK. "First—The English steamer Ber windvaie. A steamer which was possibly the Berwindvale was en countered on the evening of March 16 in sight of Bull Rock Light, on the Irish coast, by a German sub marine. The steamer, as soon as she noticed the submarine, which was running unsubmerged, turned and steamed away. She was or dered to by a warning shot. She paid no attention, however, to this warning, but extinguished all lights and attempted to escape. . The vessel was then fired upon until halted, and, without further orders, lowered several boats. After the crew entered the boats and re ceived enough time to row away, the ship was sunk. “The name of this steamer was not established; it cannot be stated with assurance, even with the help of the details which were furnished by the American embassy, that the above described incident concerns the steamer Berwindvale. Since, however the steamer sunk was a tank steamer like the Berwindvale, the identity of the ships may be as sumed. In this case, however, the statement made that the Berdind vale was torpedoed without warn ing would conflict with facts. "Second —The British steamer Englishman. This steamer on March 2, was called upon to halt by a German submarine through two warning shots about twenty sea miles west of Islay (Hebrides). The vessel proceeded, however, without heeding the warning and was therefore forced by the subma rine by artillelry Are to halt after an extended .chase, whereupon she lowered boats without further or- "After the German commandant had convinced himself that the crew had taken to the boats and rowed from the ship he sank the steamer. ADMISSION AND DOUBT "Third The British steamer Manchester Engineer. It is im possible to establish through tn. Investigation up to the present whether thfe attack on this steam er. which, according to the gIV-, en description, occurred on March 27 in the latitude of Waterford, is attributable to a German subma rine. The statement regarding the time and place of the incident gives no sufficient basis for investiga tion. It would therefore.be desir able to have more exact statements of the place, time and attendant circumstances of the attack report ed by the American government In order that the investigation there upon might be brought to a con clusion. "Fourth —The British Steamer Eagle Point. This steamer in the afternoon of March 28 was called upon to halt 'by a German subma rine, through signal and shot about one hundred—not one hundred and » thirty—sea miles from the south west coast of- Ireland, but proceed ed. She was therefore fired upon until halted and, without further orders lowered two boats in which the crew took their places. After the commandant convinced himself that the boats, which had hoisted sails, had gotten clear of the steam er, he sank the steamer. "At the time of the sinking a north-northwest wind of the strength of two, not ‘a storm wind,’ and a light swell, 'not a heavy sea,’ as stated in the given description, prevailed. The boats therefore had every prospect of be ing picked up very quickly because the place of the sinking lay on a much-used steamer path. "If the crew of the steamer used only two small boats for saving themselves, the responsibility falls upon themselves, since there were still upon the steamer, as the sub marine could establish, at least four big collapsible boats. "Fisth —The French steamer Sus sex—Ascertainment of the fact whether the channel steamer Sus ’ sex was damaged by a German submarine was rendered ex tremely difficult because no exact details of time, place and attend ant circumstances of the sinking were known , and also because it was impossible to obtain a pic ture of the ship before April 6. Consequently the investigation had to be extended to all actions under taken on the day in question— March 24 —in the channel in the general regloin betwewen Folkstone and Diippe. "In this region on March 24 a long, black craft, without a flag, having a gray funnel, small gray forward works and twow high masts, was encountered about the middle of the English channel by a German submarine. The Ger man commander reached the defi nite conclusion that it was a war DHSftMDn CALOMEL? HORRIBLE! Calomel is quicksilver and acts like dynamite on your liver Calomel loses you a day! You know what calomel is. It’s mercury; quick silver. Calomel is dangerous. It crashes into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones and should never be put into your system. When you feel bilious, sluggish, con stipated and all knocked out and believe you need a dose of dangerous calomel just remember that your druggist sells for 50 cents a large bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone, which is entirely vegeta ble and pleasant to take and is a per fect substitute for calomel. It is guar anteed to start your liver without stir ring you up inside, and cannot sali vate. Don’t take calomel! It makes you sick the next day; it loses you a day’? work. Dodson’s Liver Tone straightens you right up and you feel great. Give it to the children because it is perfect!) harm!* >c>i doesn’t gripe.—(Advt.) W. C. VEREEN, president of Moultrie Packing company, of Moultrie, Ga., who was elected chairman of the executive commit tee of the Georgia Shippers’ as sociation at the meeting in At lanta Tuesday. I r • , ■<' I .G Jw I I 1■ ■■ ■ , J I K v vessel, and, indeed, a mine layer of the recently built English Arabis class. “He was led to that conviction by the following facts, first by the plain, unbroken deck of the ship; second, the form of the stern, sloping downward and backward like a war vessel; third, she was paitned like a war vessel; fourth, the high speed developed, about 18 knots; fifth, the circumstances that the vessel did not keep a course northward of the light buoys be tween Dungeness and Beachy Head, which, according to 'the frequent and unvarying observations of Ger man submarines is about the course of commercial vessels, but kept in the middle of the channel, on a course about in the direction of Le Havre. "Consequently, he attacked the vessel at 3:55 in the afternoon, mid dle European time, one and one half sea miles east of Bull Rock (Bullock?! bank the submarine be ing submerged. The torpedo struck and caused such a violent explosion in the forward part of the ship that the entire forward part was torn away to the bridge. CLAIMS MUNITIONS ABOARD. "The particularly violent ex plosion warrants the certain conclu sion that great amounts of muni tions were aboard. “The German commander made a sketch of the vessel attacked by him, two drawings of which are inclosed. The picture of the steamer Sussex, two copies of which are also inclosed, is repro duced photographically from the English paper, The Daily Graphic, of the 27th ultimo. "A comparison of the sketch and the picture shows that the craft attacked is not identical with the Sussex; the difference in the posi tion of the stack and shape of the stern is particularly striking. "No other attack whatever by German submarines at the time in question for the Sussex upon the route between Folkstone and Dieppe occurred. The German government must therefore assume that the in jury to the Sussex is attributable to another cause than at at tack by a German submarine. "For an explanation of the case the fact may perhaps be service able that no less than twenty-six English mines were exploded by shots by German naval forces in the channel on the first and sec ond of April alone. The entire sea in that vicinity is, in fact, endan gered by floating mines and by tor pedoes that have not sunk. Off the English coast it is further endan gered in an increasing degree through German mines which have been laid against enemy naval forces. "Should the American govern ment have at its disposal further material for a conclusion upon the case of the Sussex, the German government would ask that it be communicated, in order to subject this materia! also to an investi gation. "In the event that differences of opinion should develop hereby be tween the two governments, the German government now declares itself ready to have the facts of the case established through mixed commission of investigation in ac cordance with the third article of The Hague agreement for the peaceful settlement of international conflicts —November 18, 1907. "The undersignedd, while re questing that you communicate the above to the government of the United States, takes occasion to re new to the ambassador the assur ance of his distinguished esteem.

MONTGOMERY, Ala., April 11.—Eight Alabama counties applied to the state highway department during the first quarter' of the calendar year for state aid in the construction of highways, accord ing to the quarterly report of W. S. Kel ler, state highway engineer, which was submitted to the state highway commis sion yesterday. Work was completed in Madison county during the quarter, and work was begun in Baldwin, Lee, Monroe and Pickens counties. Engineer Keller reported that thirty good roads’ institutes were held during February and March and great interest was shown in them. Records show that 1,745 men attended the Institutes and :hat at least 500 of them were actively engaged in the Improvement of the pub lic roads. CONFERENCE TO BE HELD ON SUCAH TARIFF BILL Committees From House and Senate Trying to Agree on 'Measure WASHINGTON, April 12.—The sugar tariff bill, passed by the senate late yesterday by a vote of 40 to 32, went to a conference of two houses today, where a sharp controversy over the measure is in prospect. The bill is substitute for house free sugar repeal resolution and would ex tend the present duty of 1 cent a pound <>n sugar until May 1, 1920. Opponents, led by the oLuisiana senators, fought in vain for the house flat repeal con tending that the senate measure would not restore confidence to sugar growers. It is fullv expected that the house con ferees will insist upon their measure. Unless a conference agreement is reached and approved before May 1, su gar will go on the free list until such time as the repeal or extension of the duty can be made effective. An effort by Senator Works of Califor nia, to amend the bill so a» to increase the duty on lemons and other citrus fruits was defeated 44 to 29. Artillery and Cavalry Horses Needed jor U.S. Apparently the United States army is preparing for further dashes into Mexico in pursuit of Villa, for notice has been posted in the postoffice building that pro posals for the supplying of cavalry and artillery torses are wanted. The govern ment wants 6,200 horses. Proposals must be made to Colonel H. L. Rogers, of the quartermaster’s corps, stationed at Fort Sam Houston, Tex., and can be made until May 1. De liveries of the horses may be started fif teen days after the bids are awarded and continue for 120 days. The horses must be delivered to San Antonio, El Paso or some other conve nient shipping point The government needs 5,000 cavalry and 1,200 artillery horses. 8188 COUNTY GETS MOST OF BIG PENSION PAYMENT Commissioner Lindsey Will Mail Vouchers to 89 Coun ties Today Pension Commissioner John W.
