.DR. EAVES TELLS OF
 TUBERCULOSIS NEED
Reports on Work of Month and Tells of Accumulat-
 ing Deficit

Secretary George Eaves of the Anti Tuberculosis association yesterday made
 the following statement on the organiza- tion work and it's needs;
 By courtesy of The Age-Herald the Anti Tuberculosis association desires to keep it's needs and its services before the people of Birmingham and Jefferson coun- ty The deficit is accumulating in a man. ner distressing to tlfe management as hal already been reported. Large and gener- ous gifts or a steady stream of monthly gifts of smaller denominations can alone avail to keep the work going on it's pres ent scale. The failure of funds is in ef- feet mandate from the people to turn
 away those needy and sick persons who apply for admission to the sanatorium or who depend upon the ministrations of the visiting nurses. These statements must be read in view of the report herewith
 submitted covering the month of April. First the visiting and dispensary work A total of 77 persons were examined of whom l7 white and 2S negroes were found
 positively suffering from the disease or
 seriously suspicious cases. The nurses paid 3ss calls and distributed 1870 sputum cups and 2800 napkins. They applied medicine to 90 of these cases and relief to four
 along with 80 quarts of milk: ii analyses
 were made by the city laboratory on sputum specimens. nine persons reported
 to the board of health and 20 houses re-
 ported for fumigation There were seven patients admitted to the sanatorium through the dispensary and two to the almshouse. Twelve deaths took place among the patients being cared for by the visiting nurses.
 Second, the sanatorium. AS abova stated, seven new cases were received. a total of 92O hospital days services were rendered in which B patients were cared for Of these, IT were on the free list and Il have undertaken to bear part of the expense. though in some instances these pledges are not kept. Twelve patients ara under the age of 21 and seven are children under 15 years. or the B cases, 19 are reported as improving or greatly improved The demand for space at the sanatorium is as usual in the early spring and summer. very great indeed
 Tn the educational department three ad- dresses were given by the nurses and i've by the secretary concerning the methods of protection and service against tubercu- losis' besides a very large number of let- ters to inquirers in all parts of the state.

TAKES THE PLACE OF
 DANGEROUS CAL0MEL
New Discovery! Dodson's Liver Tone Acts Like Caome Bl Doesn't Gripe SaIvate or Make You Sck-Don't Lose Days Work Harmless Liver Medicine for Men,
 Women, Children Read Guaranlee

Ugh! Calomel makes you sick It's horri- ble! Take dose of the dangerous drug to- night and tomorrow you may lose days work.
 Calomel is mercury or quicksilver which causes necrosis of the bones. Caomel, when it comes in contact with sour bile crashes into it, breaking it up. This is when you feel that awful nausea and cramping. If you are slug gish and "all knocked out, if your liver is torpid and bowels constipated or you have headache, dizziness, coated tongue, if breath is bad or stomach sour, just try spoonful of harmless Dodson's Liver Tone tonight.

 There is no intermingling of the sexes in the home. thanks to the spacious grounds and buildings apart. Mrs. Wood has her apartment In the woman's dor mitory and has her wards under constant personal charge.
 As to it's maintenance, a small appro- priation is made by the city and county, the only other source of revenue being vol untary contributions and to the chartably inclined there could be no more worthy cause for contribution. As with all other charitable institutions of the city the calls on the home have been many dur ing the past months of industrial depres- sion but thanks to the careful manage ment of Mrs Wood the institution has been kept going although at times 1t was hard pulling to make both ends meet
 A feature of the institution is a beallt- ful b months old baby girl born in law ful wedlock. Her mother was deserted about the time of her birth and she found refuge in the home. The child Is the pet of everyone connected with the institution. She is as pretty as a picture and her fresh baby beauty is in striking contrast with the majority of the down and outs that are inmates of the home. Her mother acts as assistant matron. and the childish prattle and innocence of the baby has doubtless caused many a penitent sinner to recall the brighter and better days of his youth and innocence.
 In the effort to make the home as nea self sustaining as possible a large tract of land on the north side of the inclosure has been cultivated and at this time an abundant crop of vegetables is under way. The truck garden is worked entirely by the men inmates and aids materially in the food supply o fthe institution

Dodson's Liver Tone is destroying the sale of calomel because it is real liver medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore it can not salivate or make you sick.
 1 guarantee that one spoonful of Dodson Liver Tone will put your sluggish liver to work and clean your bowels of that sour bile and constipated waste which is clogging your system and making you feel miserable guarantee that a bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone will keep your entire family feeling fine for months Give it to your children. It is harmless; doesn't gripe and they like its pleasant taste.

It would have been impossible to build this town as 1t has been built without the street railway service. It is ini- possible for the jitneys to operate sue .essfully except for short distances during the crowded hours of the day. The service they give cannot super sede that of the street railway COT, = pany. How could East Lake. Ensley. Pratt City, Vivian. Corey, to say noth- ing of Edgewood have been developed on jitney transportation? How could those flourishing suburbs of Mountain Terrace and Idlewild have been created or maintained on jitney service?
 But it fig said that the jitneys are popular. The evidence on this point is that the people patronize them. Of course, they do. but that does not prove that the people think that they are entitled to a special subsidy in the way of exemption from proper rhare of public burdens, nor that the

 While weatherboarding and ceiling are still needed to complete the structure it is at present admirably arranged for it's
 several purposes.

 liever in the adage that cleanliness is next to godliness.' One of the imperative rules of the institution is that everyone entering it's gates must take a bath, and incidentally in nearly every instance a change of underclothes is provided. The best that can be done under the present conditions is a batah in a tub and the batber has to carry the water to the bathhouse. The efficiency of the home would be greatly enhanced by the install lation of bath rooms at both dormitorles
 In conclusion, the place is ideal for its intended purpose. It is sufficiently far away from the city to ensure fresh air and it's spacious grounds admit of God s sunshine. It is as yet incomplete but it does not require a large degree of im- agina tion to predict that in a few years it will become noted as a model instit,i- tion of it's kind not only in the south but In the country at large.

REPORTS ON AIR ATTACK
ON U. S. SHIP CUSHING
Capt. Herland Calls Bomb Dropping
by German Aeroplane Attempt to
Sink Unarmed Vessel.

PHILADELPHIA. May 20.-Capt Lars
Larsen Herland of the American oil
tanker Cushing has arrived here with
his ship and submitted to his employers
report dealing with the attack made
on the Cushing April 2S by German
aeroplane which dropped three bombs,
one of which struck the rail of the
vessel.
In this report the captain refers to
the bomb dropping as a "dastardly act
a deliberate attempt to sink an un-
armed vessel and murder the members
Of the crew" A copy of this report
was forwarded to the State Department
at Washington.
The German airman swept in mar
row circles over the tanker. trying to
get directly over the funnel, with the
idea apparently of dropping bomb
down it and wrecking her engine
room.
The crew, at first swarming on deck,
quickly beat a retreat to the fore
castle, and no one was hurt by the
explosion OF the bomb which did strike
the Cushing.
Evening star., 1915-05-20
No Thought Of Attack.

When the airship was first noted by
the lookout it was several thousand
feet in the air and was coming, appar-
emily, from the coast of England The
airship began to drop down as it ap-
preached the ship and soon was only
about 500 feet In the air. Everybody
watched with interest the skillful way
in which the lone pilot of the bipiane
handled his machine. An attack was
not even considered a possibility. for
up to that time all thought the flying
machine an English craft
Suddenly the biplane swooped down
until it was only 800 or 400 feet above
the Cushing. A second later there
was tremendous explosion and solid
wave of water flooded the stern deck.
The crew fled for the nearest hatch
way and dived down just as a second

Name of Ship Visible.

The attack occurred while the Cush-
ing was about twenty-five miles from
Antwerp and eight miles from the
North Hinder lightship. 1t was near I
o'clock in the evening, but the sun had
barely touched the horizon, and there
was ample light for the officers and
crew to see every detail of the attack
and also for the pilot of the biplane to
see the words, Gushing, New York,
United States of America painted on
each side of the vessel in letters eight
feet high and to note the Stars and
Stripes at the masthead and the taf-
frail.
On her return journey from Antwerp
to this port the Gushing grazed float
ing mine in the North sea, off the Eng
lish port of Deal. Clever seamanship
by the first mate, Charles Christopher.
who was at the wheel, enabled the
Cushing to avoid this mine, but by
such a narrow margin that though the
stern of the vessel touched the mine.
it struck SO gently that no explosion
followed.

terdam with 5000 tons of crude oil,

days later and was referred to by
