"f wouldn't take five hundred dol¬

a well-known farmer of Stonewall,
Georgia, a short time ago.
‘‘For forty-five year I suffered al¬
most every day,” lie continued, “and
was so crippled up with rheumatism
that 1 had to hobble around on
crutches. My knees were so stiff I
could hardly bend them and. often 1
have been so weak that I have had to
take to iny bed for weeks at a time.
More than half the lime 1 couldn't do
any work. I had Indigestion and stom¬
ach trouble, too, and my back hurt so
lmd that I couldn't lay on my left side
at all. I tried every medicine 1 saw
advertised and many prescriptions be¬
sides, but kept getting worse.
"My brother living in Atlanta told
me what Tanlac had done for him and
begged me to try It. Well, sir, I have

Submarine improvements.
Since April 1 German submarines
have been equipped with four new de¬
vices which increase their destructive¬
ness, and render it more difficult for
chasers to discover their whereabouts.
Formerly the U-boats, to remain in one
spot, had to come to the surface, or
anchor themselves to the bottom; bnt
four small pumps are now "Used which
enable them to remain stationary while
submerged. This not only conserves
fuel, hut prevents its enemies from
hearing the throb of the submarine’s
propellers. Telescopic periscopes give
further assistance to the submarine in
concealing Its position. A mixture of
oxygen and strained gau is now used
In the engines, and the exhaust is
washed free of smoke and broken into
small bubbles' which do not leave a
wake. Finally, new listening devices
enable It to hear and judge the size of
ships at a considerable distance.—Lx

Prospects Excellent.
A friend dropped in to say hello the

A young native, a widower of a
year, called at the shack of the father
of a numerous family, and after beat¬
ing about the bush for a while, asked
the parent for his daughter’s hand.
“So ye want to get hitched with

Antonio Pass, opposite Candelaria,
Texas, according to a report sent out

Efforts toward the relief and con¬
trol of hookworm disease in eight
Southern states of this country and

health board at a meeting in New
York City.
In the presence of a great, throng
at Camp Mills, Minepla, N. Y., the

eral Mann and his staff. The thou¬
sands of soldiers from all parts yef

with a military precision that thrill¬
ed the spectators.
Ten of the negroes who have been
on trial at Belleville, 111., for a week,

the Sixty-fifth congress was the vot¬
ing of more than twenty-one billions
of dollars for the first year of the war
without, a dissenting voice in either
house.
Notice to the public to make its tax

new war revenue tax law has been is¬
sued. All individuals receiving in¬
comes of $1,000 and over come under
the operation of the new law. Per¬
sons failing to make returns will be
prosecuted as slackers. i
It is pointed out since congress ba
adjourned that the administration has
had its way in every instance save
one—-that of censoring the newspa¬
pers, and the newspapers practically
volunteered to preserve the interests
of the country in the publication of
war news.
The Greater Savannah Commercial
Club adopted resolutions asking for
the expulsion from the United States
senate of Senator Thomas W. Hard¬
wick of Georgia, declaring that his
published utterances and antagonistic
attitude toward the government de¬
manded that such be done.
European.
Greece is nearly ready to put a very
large and effective array in the field to
co-operate with the allies, according
to dispatches received in Washington
from Athens. Lack of equipment is
being met with that facility which
has characterized the French since the
beginning of the war, who are sup¬
plying the Greeks with the sinews of
war.
A large crowd of soldiers and wom¬
en in London broke up a meeting pac¬
ifists attempted to hold in the Broth¬

The'British in Flanders, it is report¬
ed, are getting ready for another hack
at the German lines.
The best fighting, accompanied with
the most consistent gains, thus far
in the war, has been done by the Ital¬
ians. Not since they entered the war
have they been on the defensive, and
tlieir campaign has been one long ad¬
vance. They now practically control
the Adriatic sea. and it is only a ques¬
tion of a few weeks till they will have
taken the greatest port at the head
of that sea, Trieste.
An Austrian officer was killed in a
naval battle in the Adriatic between
an Austrian warship and an Italian de¬
stroyer. The warship got away, how¬
ever.

In their offensive in the Ypres sec¬
tor the British gaified all their ob¬
on a front of 16,000 yards and
to a depth of 2,500 yards. Sixteen thou¬

tion of 2,500 yards wotrtd mean more
than a mile gain info the German-held

nouncing that Doctor Perl, the German
minister to Peru and Ecuador, resi¬
at Lima, will not be officially
received by the Ecuadorean govern¬
in case he attempts to go to Ec¬
uador. This action is no surprise to
Washington.

a factor in reducing the country’s coal
The department of labor and com¬

soft coal mines jn the country.
Vice Admiral-Sims has cabled the
navy department that an American pa¬
trol vessel, on duty at night in the

of Flanders is claimed by Secretary
of War Baker in the weekly review
of war operations issued by tile war
department.
It may be premature to assert that
the Hritish war machine has forced

of the allies in the ultimate.

ALL STAPLE FOODS
MANUFACTURERS AND DISTRIBU¬
TORS MUST NOT EXACT UN
REASONABLE PROFITS
WILL PROTECTJUNSUMERS
Restrictions Will Only Touch Those
Retailers Whose Business Ex¬
ceeds 6100,000
Washington.—Virtualy all the staple
foods consumed by the American peo¬
ple will be put under government con¬
trol by November 1.
The food administration has an¬
nounced that President Wilson will
issue an executive order requiring that
manufacturers and distributors of
some twenty fundamental foods oper¬
ate under license restrictions design¬
ed to prevent unreasonable profits and
to stop speculation and hoarding.
Regulations wil be prescribed for
meat packers, cold tsorage houses,
millers, canners, elevators, grain deal¬
ers and retailers doing a business of
more than $100,000 annually, in the
commodities to be named.
“The prime purpose of the food ad¬
ministration,” the announcement said,
“is to protect the patriot against the
slacker in business. It has generally
been recognized that the enormous ob¬
ligation imposed on the American peo¬
ple to feed our soldiers at the front
and the allies create a disturbing fac¬
tor in trade which allows opportunity
to a few to impose burdens upon the
many and that it is of vital national
importance that such control should
be exerted as will remedy, so far as
may be, the economic disturbances in¬
cident to the war.”
Issuance of the president’s procla¬
mation was delayed, the announce¬
ment observes, that the food admin¬
istration might complete conferences
with representatives of trades and pro¬
ducers and consumers. Already about
two hundred conferences have been
held at which were planned regulations
and constructive methods of control.
GERMANY’S STRENGTH
ON BATTLE FRONTS
SHOWING DECREASE
French Commission Presents Figures
That Illustrate Waning Of Mili¬
tary Power Of The Teutons
Washington. — Germany’s military
strength, now shows a clear decrease
for the first time since tiie war began,
according to a review based upon data
of the French general staff .made pub-S
lie here by the French high commis¬
sion.
Worn down and driven back by the
never-ending pounding of the allies
on the western front, the statement
says, the Germans have made their
supreme military effort after drawing
heavily upon their inactive armies in
the east and calling out their IMS am!
part of the 1919 reserves.
Thus, while the allies have reached
and are prepared to maintain iheir
full strength while awaiting the com¬
ing of America’s great army, the en¬
emy’s resources are diminishing at the
very moment when the military sit¬
uation demands that they increase.
‘This shows,” concludes the state¬
ment, "the decisive character attend¬
ing the operations of 1918 when three
great democracies, England. France
and America, will unite their entire
strength in attacking the enemy, in
conformity with the only sound prin¬
ciple of war.”
Another Peace Bid By Teuton Powers
Amsterdam.—Germany and Austria
Hungary have agreed to make another
peace offer to the allies, the Deutsche
Tages Zeitung of Berlin says it learns
on good authority. The offer will
have as its basis no territorial aggran¬
dizement. the surrender of Belgium
and French territory, the renunciation
of positive territorial acquisitions for
payments in money and no indemnity
on either side.
Submarine Danger Less In North Sea
Copenhagen.—The danger from sub¬
marines having decreased insurance
on Norwegian cargoes in the North sea
lias been reduced from S to 7 per
cent.
Small Investors Are To Be Sought
New York.—Small investors, those
who are able to buy $50 and $100 bonds
are to be the main objects of the com¬
ing activities in the “drive” to obtain
$1,500,000,000 for the second Liberty
Loan in the New York federal reserve
district. Campaign managers declar¬
ed a degree of apathy concerning the
loan was shown by this element dur¬
ing the first week of their work. This,
they say, probably was based on the
! erroneous idea entertained by many
persons of limited means that small
subscriptions would be of no avail.
Bars Are Lifted On Cotton Exports
Washington.—Stoppage of cotton
shipments to northern European neu¬
trals has resulted in such a surplus
of the staple in this country that the
exports administrative hoard determin¬
ed to permit for an indefinite period
the expdftaticA of raw setton to the
allies without licenses.
306,000 Australians Now At Front
London.—It is announced that the
total enlistments of the Australian
forces now aggregate 306,000 men.

Help to Save
Nation’s Food Supply
In this time of high cost of living ev- '
erybody should use ail possible means to
prevent waste and to help save food. No
one means can be more effective than a
vigorous campaign to exterminate rats !
which destroy over two hundred million
dollars worth of foodstuffs annually Keep
garbage in rat-proof cans, stop up tlieir
holes, and above all exterminate them
with Stearns’ Paste, which can be bought
for a few cents at any store. A two ounce
