DECLARATION OF WAR CAME AT A VERY FAVORABLE TIME AS

While SO much wheat land was ripe
for the harvester that a scarcity of
food could be at least but a matter of
days. Had war broken out in June,
the matter of harvesting the grain
would have been a far more serious
problem.
Through England, the people of ev-
cry class regard the war with one
mind. They approve of it because
they believe there was no honorable
way for England to stay out of the
conflict. Not a man but wants to go
to the front and all the people, high
and low, are accepting the privations
of war, slight as vest but apt to be
come heavy before long, with great
good humor and grace
Perhaps one of the most unexpect.
ed results of the war was the abso-
lutte ending of suffrage militancy. For
years the British public has been &C
customed to the depradations of the
wild women" manifested in the
smashing of windows, crusades on
parliament, burning of houses, mutt
lation of pictures and explosion of
bombs. One of the first things King
George did after England declared
war, was to Internationally pardon
all the suffragette prisoners who are
in the various jails for militant Of
lenses. The militants reciprocated
Immediately by declaring cessation
of their violent campaign for the bal
lot. The suffragette organization vol
unteered to take charge of the work
of providing for the needy women
and children, made dependent by the
war and some Of them volunteered
to act as nurses at the front.

LONDON, Aug. 15.-Shopkeepers
of London now are organizing their
clerks into fighting forces. Every
evening in the streets of the business
districts may be seen companies of
shop employees, earnestly drilling to
be soldiers. They are getting ready
to change the yard stick for a musket
and the counter for a trench. In the
big department stores, where there
are many employees, whole regiments
hav been organized. In lesser estab-
lishments companies are being form
ed and where there are small stores
with only few clerks, two or three
employers are putting their men to-
gether to form company.
Apparently all the clerks are en-
thusiastic over the possibility of go
ing to war. They seem to take to the
drilling with interest and when they
are being put throug their PAGES, the
streets ring with good natured shouts
of laughter.
From the appearance of the recruit
ing stations, it would appear that all
male England is trying to get to the
fighting front. Men of all classes
and degrees beseige the Offices, stand
ing half the day long in lines in the
streets, silk-hatted peers rubbing ell
bows with grimy laborers. The en-
listment is proceeding at the rate of
thousands day.

British consumer that war was delay

TRUSTEES OFFICE
HAS EXISTED FOR
RATHER SHORT TINE
BEFORE 1850 TAXES WERE COL
LEcTED BY THE SHERIFFS

PRESENT SYSTEM BEGAN In 1876
Only One Official, James 3. Gran

More Than Two Terms and in the
Early Days One Term Was Rule.

Prior to 1850 the office of county
trustee did not exist in Tennessee
Before that time the taxes were as
sessed by justices of the peace and
collected by the sheriff. For sever
al years thereafter the Offices of trus.
tee and tax collector were separate
but in 1876 they were consolidated
and we have since that time had the
present system.
In 1864 William C. Allen was elect
ed tax collector. He held the Office
for only two years and was followed
by w. B. Ramon, who served until
1868, being succeeded by w. B. Con-
ner in 1868. In 1870 ]. H. Akin was
chosen. He served two years to be
followed by D. A. Craig in 1872. Two
years later he was in turn succeeded
by Capt Archibald A. Lipscomb, aft
erward twelve years the representa-.
tive from this county In the general
assembly of the state, establishing
the local record for long and contin-
uous service in that body.
Capt. Lipscomb was the last tax
collector of the county. In 1876 the
Offices of trustee and tax collector
were consolidated under the name of
trustee and w. T. Edwards was elect.
ed, serving for one term. In 1878
J. c. McGaw was chosen. He like all
of his predecessors was a one term
official and was succeeded by E. F.

every human being Understanding that
DR. Wood is sure Of his faets-I feel that

The essence OF the explanation is
found in the following sentences:
Babies are born free of tuberculosis
but begin to acquire 1t as soon as they
can crawl around. pick up the bacili with
dust and dirt. and Immediately, convey
them to the mouth after the manner OF
all babies.
These germs are weakened or attenu-
ated by sunlight, drying, etc. and are not
able to spread actively. though they
establish themselves. Those which are
taken in by the phagocytes have the Same
effect as vaccination and cause the pro-
duetion OF Antibodies which make us

So, II all this is correct, and / am

Tho answer is as interesting as any
thing that has preceded and is perhaps
Of greater Importance:
"If an adult develops active tubercu-
losls II is not new infection, but an
activation of latent LESSONS that he has
been carrying since childhood.
Something has happened to him which
has caused a temporary lessening Of his
antibodies and allowed tho latent ,tuber-
oulosis to spread and nothing is more
potent in doing this than infections like
measles, whooping cough and typhoid
fever. Without these activatlng causes

rooms lack Of outdoor exercise and a
thousand other ways of lowering general
health, but II one in such condition
does acquire another infection like pneu-
monia, typhoid fever or influenza his
chances OF becoming actively tubercular
later are very large"
And then read this:
"Post.mortems OF children almost al
ways reveal tubercle, no matter what the
disease was which caused death. Post
mortems OF adults always show Healed
LESSONS. proving that at some time in our
lives each of US lost resistance suffi-
ciently to allow the LESSONS to become
active, though we were later cured by
re-establishment OF the immunity. One
eighth or one-tenth OF MS are unable to
re-establish it and perish from tubercu-
losis." ..

blessings on the crawling baby that picks
them up and nourishes them in It's blood

l have no thought OF treating this sub
ject lightly II what Or. Woodruff says
Is correct, he is undoubtedly right in de-
ciaring that the facts he sets forth are
bound most profoundly to modify the
anti-tubercuiosis crusade. One OF the
new weapons of defense against CON
sumption will be publication Of the water
supply. which strikes at the universal
enemy over the shoulders Of It's ally, ty-
phoid fever.

and telling him she cannot see him again.
At the inn where he puts up he notices
Tabor in an argument with a strange
Italian sailor. Crosby protects the sailor
from the crowd at the inn and goes on
to the Ainslies. where he again encoun-
ters Miss Tabor, who has told her hosts
nothing of her former meeting with the

Well, when DR.. Walter Reid, Miss Tabor's 9

Crosby returns to the inn and demands

Crosby declines to go until she tells him
herself. Miss Tabor greets him in q

He says he will not unless she send for

Crosby learns that DR.. Reid Is married TO

of its getting into the papers. Crosby IS
Informed that his former ejectment from

had made for the family. The newspapers
