RED CROSS SEAL
Cholera Got Into Mr. W. H. Willi,'
Herd Unexpectedly.
Mr. W. H. Willii. of the Excelsior
district, has already lost about
twenty-five head of his fine hogs,
more are sick with the cholera and
not expected to be saved; it being
probably that fifty head of the one
hundred in the herd will die of the
disease.
This will entail a loss to Mr. Wil
lis of about $800, as his hogs will
average about 200 pounds, and
were in the pink of condition before
they were turned into the velvet
bean fields where hogs with cholera
had grazed last year.
Mr. Willis would not have lost as
many head of hogs ns he has, had
he discovered that the animals were
infected with the cholera sooner
than he did, but the disease had got
well under way before he knew
they were sick. He summoned Prof.
L. S. Watson, farm demonstrator,
as soon as he made the discovery,
and Mr. Watson went out to the
farm and inoculated all the animals
that he thought could possibly be
saved in the herd, with the result
that half of them will live. It is
likely but for the treatment given
tjie hogs Mr. Willis would have lost
every one on his place.
Campaign is on For Fight Against
Spread of Tuberculosis.
Atlanta, Ga„ Nov. 27.—Plans are
under way to sell two million Red
Cross Christmas seals this year for
anti-tuberculosis work in Georgia, or
just double the amount disposed of
in 1915. Every city and town ini
Georgia and every county in the
state with the exception of about a
dozen are co-operating in the work.
The state distribution is under the
direction of the W. G. Raoul Foun
dation, Atlanta, of which James P.
Faulkner is executive secretary,
and already the two million seals
have been sent out.
In most cities and towns it is the
Women’s clubs which are handling
the local campaigns, but where Wo
men’s clubs are not active many oth-
!f methods are being used, including
Sunday school classes and teachers,
school children, banks, and interest
ed individuals who arc helping in the
work. In adition to the two mil
lion seals sent out, the Raoul Foun
dation has another half million in re-

If cross, feverish, sick, bilious, cleaa
little liver and bowels.
Children love this “fruit laxative”
and nothing else cleanses the tender
stomach, liver and bowels so nicely,
A child simply will not stop play
ing to empty the bowels and the re
sult is, they become tightly clogged
with waste, liver gets sluggish, stom
ach sours, then your little' one be
comes cross, half-sick, feverish,
don’t eat; sleep or act naturally,
breath is bad, system full of cold,
has sore throat, stomach-ache or
diarrhoea. Listen, Mother! See if
tongue is 'coated, then give a tea-
spoonful of "California Syrup of
Figs,” and in a few hours all the
constipated waste, sour bile and un-
digested food passes out of the sys
tem, and you have a well, playful
child again.
Millions of mothers give"Califor-
nia Syrup of Figs” because It is
perfectly harmless; children love it,
and it never fails to act on the stom
ach, liver and bowels.
Ask your druggist for a fifty-cent
bottle, of "California Syrup of Figs”
