TIME TO FIGHT WITH
 GLOVES ON PASSED

London, August 22--(6:25 D. m.)--A
 dispatch to the Reuter- Telegraph com
 pany from Paris quotes an official
 statement:
 owing to strategical considerations
 It has been impossible to cooperate
 earlier with the Belgian army in the
 de1ense Of their country, but the en-
 agreements which we have undertaken
 are only the more solemn and our CO.,
 operation will be still closer and will
 be pursued with extreme energy. Tn contrast with the consideratc
 treatment accorded German prisoners it has been established that the enemy considers as nonexistent both interna- tlonal conventions and the most an cient traditions of right and military order. We are suffering vertiable in- vasion of barbarians. We wish indeed to remain civilized and will do so till She end, despite this return to savagery on the part of nation which has pre- l tended to be tho arbiter of civilization But 1t is impossible to preserve to- wards our present adversaries tho lchivalrous generosity which until now has been the rule between soldiers HTime for war with. gloves on has passed. The enemies with whom we ex- changed at Fontenoy courteous words before opening fire have become today our faithful and useful allies We have before us unbridled savages We, owe to them only the strict observation os the rules of humanity and the laws of war.
 The minister of war has issued strict instructions that German prisoners2 r ncers as well as soldiers. not be treated with the consideration and favor which should be reserved for our own men Life Is assured, naturally and that is all we owe them.'

 FEELS ABOUT IT

 New York, August 2.-The As sociated Press has received the fol- lowing message through the Ger. man embassy:
 Berlin, August 22. 1.-THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.
 New York: "Germany is completely cut off from the rest of the world and neither can send out news nor re- ceive 1t. The empire therefore is unable to defend itself against the alsehoods propagated by the press hostile countries. It only can 6efend itself by its deeds. The German people will be profoundly ufoteful for every effort to dissem- lnnte the real truth.

BATTLE OF GIANTS AT LAST BEGINS

London, August 23.-(1:45 a. m.) After nearly three weeks of mobiliza- tion the battle of giants has begun.

 Almost all the encounters that have gone before have been mere reconnais-
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-08-23

The rapidity of the German move ments in Belgium was in a measure due to the failure of the retiring Bel gians to destroy railroads and bridges behind them.
 These facts must be faced, the cor respondent continues. Northern Bel gium now is German province, at least temporarily, since the battle has yet to be fought
 Ghent is only one hour by express train from Ostend, consequently the German cavalry could arrive there at any moment.
 :. The populace of Ostend is still ig- norant of the true situation.

HOW TO CURE A
CHRONIC COUGH
Told in the Following Letter
by a Jackson Man Who
Knows from Experience.
His Word Is Good.

Jackson, Miss.-"I am a carpenter,
and the grippe left me not only with a
chronic cough, but | was rundown,
worn out and weak. | took all kinds of
cough syrups but they did me no good.
finally got 80 weak l was not able to
do day s work, and coughed so much 1
was alarmed about my condition. One
evening read about Vinol and decided
to try it. Before | had taken quarter
of a bottle felt better, and after taking
two bottles my cough is entirely cured,
all the bad symptoms have disappeared
and have gained newvim and energy"
JOHN L. DENNIS, I'll Lynch Street,
Jackson, Miss.
The reason Vinol is so successful in
such cases is because the active medic
inal principles of cod liver oil contained
in Vinol rebuilds wasting tissues and
supplies strength and vigor to the nerves
and muscles while the tonic iron and
wine assist the red corpuscles of the
blood to absorb oxygen and distribute
it through the system, thus restoring
health and strength to the weakened,
diseased organs Of the body.
If Vinol fails to help you, we return
your money.

The present outbreak first appeared
in Southern Michigan. How it was
introduced there is not ::nown. Ship
ments if diseased hogs from this
place which passed to Chicago are
believed to be responsible for the in
lection of the pens in the Union Stock
yards. Once the yards became infect.
ed there was danger that every ship
ment of live stock through Chicago to
other parts of the country might pick
spread the contagion. These ship
ments, composed largely of feeders
and stOckers, were sent to farms for
fattening and did not remain in Chi
cago long enough for the disease 20
show itself in external symptoms.
Sode of the cattle, carrying the coh-
tagion, after shipment develop exter-
nal LESSONS and this accounts for the
outbreak of the disease in States as
far apart as Iowa and Massachusetts.
For this reason large force of Fed
eral inspectors is now running down
every shipment and examining the
animals or herds at their place of
delivery.
At present the chief danger lies in
the possibility of there being conceal
ed sources of infection. Every effort
is being made by State and Federal
authorities, not only to trace suspi-
ciOus shipments, but to convince farm
ers of the seriousness of the disease
and the extreme cas- ewith which it is
communicated, and to urge upon them
to report ar once to State or Federal
authorities all suspicious cases of sore
mouths or iameneSS.
