8 BLACK-DHAUGHT AS A PREVENTIVE When You Begin Feeling Bad With Feverishness, Head ache, Cold, or Constipa tion, Give Your Liver a Tonic —Take Black- ✓ Draught Candler, N. C.—"l don’t believe there is a better medicine made than Black-Draught; I have used it and my mother’s folks used it for colds, feverishness, headaches and deranged liver.” This statement re cently was made by Mr. C. B. Trull, a well-known farmer on Route 3, this place. "I have, before now, begun feeling dull, a headache would come on, and I would feel all full of cold, and take a few doses of Black- Draught and get all right,” adds Mr. Trull. "Last year my brother had mea sles, flu and pneumonia. They wired us; I went to Camp Jeckson to look him up. Down there different ones were using preventatives. I stayed with him. The only thing I used was Black-Draught. It kept my system cleansed and I kept well and strong.” By keeping your liver and stom ach in good order, you stand in little danger of catching serious ills that occasionally spread through town and country. Get a package of Black-Draught and have it ready for the first symptom of a disordered liver. ' Most druggists sell Black- Draught.—(Advt.) FREE offer. Seize it quickly.

MANSFIELD, ACTOR’S WIDOW, • ESCAPES TURKS NEW YORK.—When Mrs. Beatrice Mansfield, widow of America’s .great tragedian, returns home next week after her year’s sojourn in Turkey, she will have a tale of ad venture, beside which all the drama in which she and her late husband have played will seem pale and painted. Beginning with a bombardment of Turkish bullets and ending with a Turkish massacre when the “con quering heroes” rode through the streets, with the heads of their vic tims raised aloft on their swords, the performance in which Mrs. Mans field played her latest lead surpassed for thrills any that Broadway at its best can achieve. For sixty-two days of nerve-rack ing uncertainty the six Americans waited for the French reinforce ments, while their food and fuel sup ply dwindled. It was February when the siege began, and lack of fuel was more than an inconvenience. The Turkish bullets battered against the doors and windows and crashed through the roofs of the buildings next them. * Mrs. Mansfield has been preceded to the states by Lieutenant Weeden, one of her co-workers, who brought with him letters from Mrs. Mans field written during the siege and de scribing her sensations during those terrible days. Most difficulty of all was the forc ed inactivity. After the doors were barricaded and windows sandbagged there was nothing to do but sit an-’ listen to the booming of the guns and the crack of the rifle fire and to give what comfort they could to the little Armenian orphan hud dled together in the basement. Occasional! French soldiers made their way to the compound at night, wrapped in white shets, in which they stole through the thick-falling snow unobserved by the enemy. But they brought only tales of the suffer ings of the troops, whose supplies were fast going and whose hopes of rescue by the promised column -were every day growing more dim. j By the light of an improvised lamp made from a dipping a piece of rag in a jar of automobile oil Mrs. Mans field wrote her letters home—letters which she realized might never be be read, might never be sent. Tight for Idle In the big living room, scantily heated by the meager fire which was the only source of heat outside the kitchen, the Americans sat together helpless, and almost hopeless, while from the basement below came the melancholy sing-song of the little orphans, chanting their native hymns, a weird accompaniment to the hiss of the bullets and the boom of the guns without. The French post on one side was captured, the American building on the other was gouged with bullets. In back the French garrison fought frantically for their lives. And all about them to make the gloom more oppressive the snow fell heavily or the thick white fog close, shutting out the outside world. Most nights the women ,of the party were quartered in the base ment where', wrapped in blankets, they at least knew that they were safe from fire. On the night's when Mrs. Mansfield, who resented being taken care of, insisted on sleeping in her own room, she was aroused after a few hours’ restless sleep by the alarm of an attack on the build ing. Then followed a hurried retreat to the cellar. Finally, on the sixty-second day, when all hope of reinforcements was lost, the French hoisted the white flag. The Turks granted them a truce, guaranteeing their safe re treat from the city. But the jubilance of the Ameri cans wag brief. Scarcely had the last of the French column disappeared in the distance, when Mrs. Mansfield, who had at once gone to the city to look after her Armenian friends, heard a frightful shrieking and shouting. Turkish brigands, their clothes smeared with blood, their daggers dripping, galloped into the town, bringing the news of the massarce of the French troops. A few moments later the “war riors” returned singing and shout ing, with the heads of their victims carried on their sword points or borne on their saddles while the populace thronged about them wild with glee. Armistice Ended So ended the Turkish-Freneh armistice. With thi s demonstration of the Turks’ howor, it was with great tte piuation that the American relief I workers started on their journey out under promise of safe convoy. But the Turk was weary of blood shed apparently, and the party made its way without molestation to Aleppo, where they were offered their release. Mrs. Mansfield, however, was not yet ready home. She signed for service in Jerusalem, where she carried on relief work with the refugees there until a few weeks ago, when she started for home. An interesting and most unusual feature of the actress’s work in Jerusalem was her dramatic read “}£• , W , h , en the SOU P Save out, Mrs. Mansfield, torn with pity but help less to offer food, gave what com tort she could by dramatic recitals Though there is a. suggestion of irony in offering Shakespeare to hungry people in lieu of stew, so was the interest and pleasure which she aroused for-a time suf ■ ering and pain were forgotten and her hearers were transported to a world beyond their troubles. Big Still Raided In Troup County a L -£- G RANGE Ga., Oct. 14.—Sheriff b - A - »mith and posse Tuesday raided a moonshine distillery in East Vernon district, destroying a seventy- outfit, 250 gallons of corn ■tnasi) and confiscating ten gallons of corn whisky to be used as evidence against the operators. John Truitt, colored, was arrested near the scene of the raid with a sack in hig possession containing a two-gallon jug filled with whisky. He will be charged with operating the distillery. Sheriff Smith has raided fifty distilleries during the past three months. Sheriff Sells Effects Os Mrs. Tom Thumb MIDDLEBORO, Mass., Oct. 14. The auctioneer’s hammer was raised today over the lilliputian effects of the late Countess Lavinia Magrl, who, as Mrs. Tom Thumb, one of the famous dwarf couple, was known on two continents. Old age, illness and an admitted lack of funds caused her second husband, Count Magri, himself a dwarf, to offer the tiny furnishings of their home and the gowns and jew-els of his midget wife for sale. He plans to end his years at his birthplace, Bologna, Italy, whence he will sail next spring. “Terrapin King” Lives in Georgia ..... %• ‘ il wlWNl'g?'! mHHHHI The picture at the left shows a sector of the only auccessfui terrapin farm in the world. It’s on the Isle of Hope, near Savannah, ... -J I and its owner is Alex Barbee, who appears at the right. T BY JACK PATTERSON Alex Barbee is the only person In the world who has mastered the art of raising terrapins. . The government tried it and fail ed. But Mr. Barbee established a terrapin farm 'eight years ago at the Isle of Hope near Savannah and it is flourishing. He is today the Terrapin King. His farm measures 60 by 150 feet, and is divided into pens. Two weeks ago, there were 5,700 terrapins on the farm, valued at sls to $36 a dozen, according to their size. Terrapin may be raised and hatch ed at a minimum cost, owing to economical habit of requiring no food from October to April. Baby terra pin refuse any food at all until they are six months old. J In writing about his farm, Mr. Barfeee says: “The whole thing can be flood ed with water at will, and the pens are always flooded when the terra pin are fed, which is usually about three times a week in spring and summer, and not at all in the win- Old Hickory Plant In Tennessee Sold by U. S. for $3,505,000 WASHINGTON. Oct. 14.—The Old Hickory powder plant at Jacksonville, lenn., has been sold to the Nash vule Industrial corporation, the di rector of sales of the war depart ment announced today. The price was $3,505,000. The war department under the terms of sale, reserved a large amount of space at the plant for the storage of smokeless powder and other materials as well as powder making machinery. Remaining also in possession of the government are the numerous concrete foundations which will as sure to the government the nucleus of a smokeless powder plant for com pletion and use in time of national emergency. The department’s announcement said that by sales and transfers of materials at the plant through other government agencies it had recovered from its venture the total of $9,400,- 000. “The Nashville Industrial corpora tion will operate this mammoth plant and develop a thriving industrial city there,’’ said the department’s an nouncement. “Arrangements have al ready been made to operate certain portions of the chemical units, and it is expected that within ninety days parts of the various plants will be producing. “Old Hickory, pronounced the greatest achievement of the war, is a complete city. The plant is so large and has so many duplicate units that a part of the equipment must be sold. The release of this vast quantity of chemical equipment will prove a boon to the A-merican Chemi cal industry which is now suffer ing from a shortage in the equip ment market. “By this sale, the operating inter ests of the nation also are saved housing costing more than $12,000,- 000, as a sale to a wrecking concern would mean the destruction to this modern industrial city, a city capable of caring for 20,000 persons. It also means that the boiler house and the water purification plant, and the foundations of a smokeless powder plant, will remain intact. .The two former plants will be kept in opera tion by the purchasers. “The corporation has purchased the village with its modern facilities, the immense boilers and two power plants, sulphuric acid plants, cot ton purification plant, and nitrating units. There also are 1,800 acres ot land used exclusively for manufac tur in g.” Police Believe They Have Master Mind Os Petty Burglaries It appears from his recent perfor mances that Will Jordan is the mas ter-mind among the Atlanta minor - league burglars. Certainly he ts one of the master-minds. Will was a tleaffi classy enough to pick a detective s pocket while the detective was es corting Will about the town, so Will could point ou tvarious points of in terest, such as the places he had liv ed and stored silk shirts by the dozen, and so on. Will was arrested Tuesday by De tectives T. O. Sturdivant and Pat Campbell, and a hundred expensive siik shirts and other wearing apparel were found in his house. Will said they had been “left” with him by i various persons. He denied any hand in stealing them, but the officers, in the course of their investigations, have turned up at least a dozen rob beries in which portions of the goods were identified as having figured. They were taking Will about town on ’this Investigation Wednes day, and Thursday morning the pre caution was taken to make a second search of Will’s person. In one of his pockets were found papers that on Wednesday were in the pocket of Detective Sturdivant —evidence in a case against another suspect. , Will said he didn’t know how the papers got in his pocket. What De tective Sturdivant said —well, he said a plenty. Will also is charged with swiping a bulldog, left on guard at the home of ~.T. C. Aycock, 65 Bast avenue where other shirts were taken, along with the guardian canine, which will be used as evidence in Jordan';- trial. Canada Fixes Sugar Price at 21 Cents OTTAWA. Ont., Oct. 14.—The re tail price of granulated sugar was fixed at not higher than 21 cents a pound, plus freight, by an order issued here tonight by the board of commerce of Canada. The order, flwhich remains efective until the end of the present year, also pro hibits the importation of sugar. Wholesalers must sell to retailers, the order provides,'at a price which will permit of re-sale at 21 cents a pound with a profit of 2 cents to the retailer. Snake Bite Cure Is Referred to Prohibitionists RALEIGH, N. C„ Oct. 14.—State Auditor Wood has received a let ter from a man in Texas asking to be advised as to the rules and regula tions for the putting on the market in North Carolina, a remedy for snake bite, which the writer claims contains 65 per cent alcohol. The letter has been referred to the super intendent of the Anti-Saloon League in this state for a reply. ter, when they bury themselves in the mud for their annual hiberation. The pens are sunk several feet be neath the surface to prevent them, from escaping by digging. A founda tion of brick wouldn’t do, because we found the terrapin would wear their claws away scratching at it. “The terrapin are divided into three sizes—the largest are known as ‘The Count’ and measure about 6 1-2 inches. The next are known as the ‘halves’ and measure about 5 1-2 inches. And a smaller size is known as the ‘quarter.’ The ‘halves’ are a fine marketable terrapin and can always be counted on to bring a terrapin society. “The demand for terrapin is small south of Baltimore. Atlanta and Macon buy a few dozen off and on during the winter to supply tourists, but southern people themselves eat very few of the ‘Diamond Backs.’ ” Terrdpins have two laying periods, and deposit an average of 10 eggs each time in sand provided for that purpose. The eggs are placed in in- FORTUNES AWAIT INVENTORS Here are a Few Simple Things the World Will Pay Handsomely for If You Can Dec vise Them Breathes there a man with soul so dead who hasn’t said: “I’d like to invest something?” At heart every human being is an inventor. To be sure, most folks’ inventions are little things of value only to them selves or their own households. A few make discoveries of value to all their fellows and rate the title of “wizard” or “genius.” Most folks lament, thinks H. Gernsback, editor of Science and Invention, that they live in an age “when everything worth while is invented.” Not so, says Gernsback. 1 “Look about you!” writes he in the current Humber of Sci ence and Invention. “Strive to reduce the load from our workers. Take, for instance, your mother or your wife. Their daily dish washing task—particularly where there are no servants—is tre mendous, if you figure up the time and the hard, Unpleasant work. “Dishwasher.— What is wanted is a practical dishwasher.’ To be sure, there are some of them on the market toHay. But I’ve never seen a good one. To begin with, it must not be too big. It should fit the sink, or be of an equivalent size. It should have a gas attachment to general steam. Hot water alone does not cut the grease from a roast pan. You must have steam, or steaming hot, boiling water. That does the trick, and quickly, * too. And the dishes, glasses, forks and knives come out per fectly dry because the heat from the steam evaporates the water, drying everything. “Envelope-Letter.— Why not combine letter and envelope? To be sure, many patents exist on such, but the ideas were not good because we recall few firms using such an envelope-letter. Your fortune is made, if you invent one that, when opened, does not mutilate the letter, and looks respectable after opening. “Letter Opener.— Big firms receive thousands of letters in every mail. Such letters are not opened by hand any more to day. Machines are used. But there are few that fit the bill. And they all get easily out of order, an<D mutilate the contents of a letter. Here’s your chance. “Pencil Sharpener.— Ah, for the genius who will bless our stenographers with a REAL pencil sharpener. There is, as yet, none in captivity. They all break more pencils and chew them up faster thaA you can feed them. A simple sandpaper-wheel, correctly constructed, should be better than anything containing funny knives and foolish cutters. “Paper Collars.— Now for a cheap white paper collar that you can’t tell apart from a linen one. Sells for 5 or 10 cents apiece. Used once only, then thrown -away. But it must be stiff and non-wilting—a man’s collar.” Mother of Slackers Who Defied America And Was Convicted Z- . < whß Si ML Jt ■■ Here’s Mrs. Emma C.

C., Oct. 15.—The' western Carolina apple show, which willi be held here October 27-29, promises to be the greatest event of the kind ever attempted in North Carolina, if not in the south. The ,only trouble now seem to be in get ting a building large eoough to hold displays which are expected to pour in from every county and' almost every township in western North Carolina. Exhibits frdm the show here will be taken to the national apple show to be held soon afterwardsMn an at tempt to capture the national sweep stakes prize.

C. Vincent, president of the Kan sas City Board of Trade, here at tending the convention of the Grain Dealers’ National association. The convention planned to take action aimed at activities of “professional organizers” who, grain men contend, are urging farmers to form co-oper ative societies to control prices “re gardless of world supply and de mand.” The report of the legislative committee characterized these organ izers as “a menace to established law.” . “They deceive the farmers and the public by unwarranted attacks on existing marketing methods,” Judge Vincent said. “They tell the farmer he is not getting enough for his products and is paying too much for everything he buys." “When the world supply is large and prices slump, the farmers al ways assail the exchanges,” said Hi ram Sazer, of Chicago. “But right now don’t hear any complaint from the consumer because prices are low er under a perfectly natural read justment.” Harry A. Wheeler, president of the Union Trust company, Chicago, as sailed the deflation policy of the fed eral reserve board, declaring infla tion, rather than deflation, has re sulted. ■. Sims Bound Over for Alleged a ßunco” Game For alleged participation in a “bunco” game. W. O. Sims, of 141 Grant street, Thursday morning was bound over to the state courts un der a bond of S3OO by Recorder Johnson, on charges of cheating and swindling. It was alleged by S. R. Jackson, of 136 Gordon street, that Sims and an other man, unknown to the police, enticed him to bet SSO that he could open a trick lock. He claimed that after placing the bet, the locks were switched, and one which could not be opened was substituted for the one which could be opened. When arrested, Sims had two locks similar to those which Jackson de clared were used. Sims defied i.ny knowledge of the affair, and stated he was out of the city at the time Jackson claims he lost his money.

Business men who must speed up the works and make busi ness boom during these days —after the war—must recognize the necessity of keeping fit. When mind is befogged, when you have dull headaches or feel logy, when not “up to snuff ” keep the bowels free with a mild laxative. In the morning take a tepid sponge bath (cold water may be used if it does not chill), follow with a brisk rub down; a sufficient “setting up” exercise in good air until you are in a warm glow. Have you tried it lately? \ Don’t let the poisons accumulate in the intestines either, but try a dose of castor oil the first thing on rising, or a pleas ant laxative .occasionally, such as one made up of May-apple, aloin and jalap, rolled into a tiny sugar-coated pill, and sold in every drug store as Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. Then a cup of hot water before breakfast, and you’ll feel better than a king! If you continue in life thus, you can pass a Life Insur ance examination at sixty. If you wish to prevent old age coming on too soon, or if you want to increase your chances for a long life, you should drink plenty of soft (rain) or distilled water daily between meals. Then procure at the drug store Dr. Pierce’s Anuric (anti-uric-acid). This “Anuric” drives the uric acid out and relieves backache and rheumatism, as well as kidney trouble. Anuric dissolves uric acid. Try it now!— (Advt.) REEVES VACUUM CLEANER fcntoY(,u ftl l I ;| |j!| Bail I Ile most wonderful vacuura uSIR il Ijll "" in I I kIIiPIIIIIIH WSHSfIP cleaner ever devised.
