Pleasant Surprise
“About six months ago my father
wa® very sick with his stamach
which had been troubling him for
several years. Several doctors said
he had cancer and one said it was
gall stones—all agreed an operation
necessry, but on account of his age
1 was afraid to risk it. I told a friend
about it, who said his wife had been
through the same trouble and had
'been cured by taking Mayr's Won
derful Remedy. 1 at once bought a
bottle for father, and he is now as
strong as a bear and can eat more
‘ham and cabbage than any three
‘men. It is a simple, harmless prep
aration that removes the catarrhal
mucus from the intestinal tract, and
allays the inflammation which causes
practically all stomach, liver and in

ANNISTON, ALA., Nov. 28.-—Jude
Charles 8. Leydon, who succeeded
Dr. Knowlton Mixer in the work of
the American Red Cross Society at
Anniston, has received instructions
authorizing the distribution of 5,184
sweaters that were sent here for the
soldiers at Camp McClellan.
These sweaters have been on hand
for some time, and have been held
at the base hospital pending instruc
tions. Judge Leyden took the mat
ter up with the divisional authori
ties and instructions have ben given
that they be distributed in camp at
once. They will come at a very op- |
portune moment, as the temperature‘
at Camp McClellan has given the
boys a strong suggestion of real win- |
ter weather. The sweaters will sup
plement the large number of over
coats that were recently distributed
to the men in camp at the bvginning‘
of the recent cold weather. The new
overcoats are different from the long‘
coats heretofore worn, and some of{
the tall fellows make a very striking
appearance in their short wraps. }
The local Red Cross has also re-}
ceived notice -that twenty-five thou
sand Christmas packages will be sent
here for the hoys at Camp McClel

Messroom Waste and Dead
Horses at Columbia Cantonment
All Being Utilized,
COLUMEBIA, 8, C., Nov. 28.—Dispo
sal of the accumulations of garbage
at Camp Jackson is a matter of no
small ccnsequence and Henry Knight
& Son, of Louisville, Ky.,, who have
the contract for this disposal, have a
comprehensive organization, designed
to produce economic results,
'Each day from eight to ten tons of
garbage, both l!iquid and dry waste
Irom the mess rooms, is collected and
hauled to the assembling statisff
where 1,100 Kentucky shoats and more
more than 500 Tennessee steers are
thriving on the swill. The hogs weigh
now about 100 pounds each and the
steers would tip the scales close to
1,000 pounds. A light feed of cotton
seed nulls and meal is intermixed
for the steers, but the hogs are con
tent to eat wide swaths through the
heaps of provender—accumulations
of beans, potato peelings, soup, bread
crumbs, bones and dishwater. Plans
are to inerease the number of hogs
to 1,500 and the number of steers to
1.000 when the division is completed.
The consumption of the Kkitchen
waste at Camp Jackson in a thor
oughly useful maner is but a small
part of the program involved, Knight
& Son also have the contract to bale
up the tin cans in which the food for
the division is received, instead of
throwing these into a corner to be
devoured by some stray goat in the
sand dunes. The tins are sold in
Philadelphia, where they are melted
down and remolded. Secraps of paper
are utilized in a similar manner, and
another important saving thus af
fected.
Another big project is the disposal
of all the dead animals from the re
mount denot, from which place an
avernge of twenty dead horses have
been hau’ed daily recently in conse
quenrce of the big stampede and the
necessary heavy death rate from

animals are all skinned ard the hides
