clergyman in regard to sickness of one of
his children from which quote as follows:
"Our two-year-old baby was very sick
a, two different times and we came near
losing her. We had the best doctors,
but they did not know what the trouble
was. In the first sickness she had high fever
for several days, and the doctor said it acted
like scarlet fever, but as there were no other
cases he did not think it could be. After
wards she broke out in rash all over her
body. The last sickness was similar and
the doctor was puzzled. She was very
nervous and we feared we would lose her.
Your DR.. True's Elixir was recommended,
and after two days use she passed several
worms from two to three inches in length,
and is now we'll and strong and sleeps at
nights withoutfretting, tossing and starting
in fright as she did formerly"

mans name and address to anyone who
cares to write to me.

STATE GAME LAWS
/ TO Be emf 0RCED
Federal Authorities Take Vigor-
our Action to Prevent Ship
ments of Quail.

Lynchburg. Va, June S.-The Federal
authorities are seeking by strenuous
measures to cooperate with the
States In the enforcement of the game
laws, especially In the matter OF ship
ping game out OF the States where
a State law makes such shipments un-
lawful. 1t is learned here from an
authoritative source that the Depart
ment Of Agriculture at Washington has
brought about such changes through
Its agents that ere long shipments of
quail from the Old Dominion will be
few and far between.
The Federal statute making 1t un-
lawful to ship birds from q State which
has = similar law is to be enforced
vigorously, and not a few Virginia mer-
chants Will suffer for shipments made
under false billing during the past
three years, for thousands OF cases
have been traced up by the govern
ment.
At the recent term of the Federal
District Court at Harrisonburg, TWEEN
ty merchants doing business In the
Valley were indicted on the charge of
making such shipments In 1910, and
many Of these have paid the 500 fine
imposed by Judge Mcdowell without
the formality OF a trial. Only short
time prior TO this forty were indicted
at the Abingdon court, and 1t is known
that there are other charges pending
for 1910. while the department has not
reached the numerous charges for 1911
and 1912.
c. Z. Brewster. Washington at
torney, who Is representing the De-
partment OF Agriculture in the matter.
is authority for the statement that the
department has knowledge OF 100000
quail which were shipped from Vir-
ginia unlaw fully in 1910. and he says
that the next two years will show n
considerable increase over 1910.
The Federal law makes 1t a misde-
meanor for such Ehipments to be sold
In another State, and commission men
who have been handling them In
Washington, Baltimore. Philadelphia
and Cincinnati, from Virginia shippers
have been warned against the prac-
tice, and there are indications that the
professional hunter In Virginia in the
future will be without a mart in which
to market game unlawfully sent out of
the State.
In addition to the indictments al
ready returned In Judge McDowelrs
district, 1t is understood that there are
are to be brought to the attention Of
grand juries empanelled at the other
courts. In this net numerous coun-
try merchants will he caught who
probably will have forgotten the ship
ments by the time they are cited to
answer the charge. Further. IT will
be interesting to see the Developments
of such cases for 1911 and 1912, for
they are said to be much more nu-
merous than 1910.
