Tifls. June 19.-(Via Petrograd June 20,

 having no effect on Turkish activity along
 the Caucasian front. The Turks are re- ported to have replaced in comparative

 ammunition the Tenth and Eleventh corps reduced in numbers by fighting and dis ease.
 The main Turkish concentration is talk ing place against Olt, Melo and Kislkin, outside of which line the First and Sixth corps and the remainder of Hall Bey s
 army, defeated at Dilman, are drawn up. In addition to attempting to prevent the
 Russians from outflanking Erzerum. the
 Turks are undertaking offensive maneuv- CTS.
 Kurd leaders who were responsible for Armenian massacres In the Van district have surrendered voluntarily to the Rus sians. and are being deported to the in | teror with their dependents.

RURAL ROUTES ID
 BE ESTABLISHED
Automobile Service Will Be Established In
 August

Washington. June 2O.-Automobile rural mail delivery routes will be es- ablished in many parts of the coun- .rv beginning August 2. It was an bounced tonight that orders had been signed by permitting Burleson author zing the operation of 1O5 machines on .hat date.
 Preparations are being carried for ward for installation of the automobile in the rural mail service wherever the roads will permit. Already some car -iers are using automobiles on their routes. Under the new plan, routes designated as automobile routes will oe longer than the old horse drawn Ne- hicle routes and the pay will be more.
 Of the routes selected to date for automobile mail delivery, A are in oklahoma, 2S in Georgia, 19 in Cali fornia. & in Texas. 3 in Florida. In pennsylvania and l in Louisiana. These ncgergate $500 miles of post roads, and are the first chosen for the in- auguration of the new system.
 The number of families to be served by each of the routes selected varies from 13O to 470 and. according to the departments estimates, will average 900 This will be material increase in number as compared with those now served by the slower moving vehicles and is expected by postal officials to result in a reduction of expense to the government as well as an advantage te the people.

Helped to Pass Lonely Hours

"A few months ago l asked for some Kindly women have responded nobly. They have sent me lot of embroidery and floss, some silk pieces for patchwork, etc Not being able to reply to them ndi- vidually, I take this method of thanking each and every one who has sent any thing to me. Words cannot express my gratitude to them for being so thoughtful of a poor, crippled sut-in. It has af- forded me hours of pelasure and helped me to pass the lonely hours. They have also written a great many nice, sweet let in my heart for every one of them though we may never meet face to face on this earth. MRS. l.. E. B."
 It Is but honest and fair to publish now and then such a letter as this. It is due to the Corner to let it know something of the happiness it confers. The moral eff feet of the revelation must be good. since 1t tends to raise in the cynics mind the standard of human nature and to soften harsh judgment of our brother man. While confess freely that the recital Is balm and tonic to my own soul. I do not yield to the temptation to share the joy with my fellow workers for my selfish qualification alone. It strengthens faith and hope to know that what we do for others "in his name does not fall use- lessly to the earth but brings forth abundant fruit even in this life.

of institutions in this city duplicating work, but when they are all considered it will be shown that each attempts to take care of its own particular kind of work, often linked together, but in no way dupli- eating the work done by another institu- tion.
 1t has been considered a good plan for this department to give survey of the many and diverse agencies for human well fare in this city in a series of Sunday articles. This will give better under standing of the whole matter of insttu- tional life in Birmingham, and probably disabuse the minds of those who con- stantly raise the objection to this, and that on account of the duplication of ideas

 A picnic on that day at the park will be a delightful outing. large crowd is expected.

COTTON TRADING SMALL IN VOLUME
Bullish Attitude Toward New Crop-Few Changes
 Last Week

New Orleans June 20.-Trading in and price changes were not important. The close was at a net advance of 3 points to a net decline of points, com pared with last week. The deadlock brought about by the political situa- tion was still on and was intensified by the new crop situation.
 On the whole, sentiment in regard to the new crop was inclined to be bull ish. but against bullish feeling and al most completely offsetting it were ia vorable official crop and weather ac- counts and an acreage report from a prominent authority, putting the de- crease at only 1O.s6 per cent.
 Mill takings for the week were larger than expected and steadied the close. Hester put takings at 223,000 bales. against 176,000 this week last year, and ,o0O this week two years ago. Bears, however, considered the visible supply the most important feature of the sta tistical statement The visible of Amer ican Is, now 4.2s9,965 bales, against 2,400,97S year ago and 2,19S,0S6 two years ago
 The trade hopes to see during this week some development in the political situation which will break the stagna- tion in the future market. It is con sidered that there are possibilities in the negotiations with both Germany and England.
 This week will end the second con dition period of the season. Warm anu dry weather would be used as argu- ments against the price while rains. es- pecfally heavy rains, would probably be powerful weapon for the bulls.

SERVICE DEPARTMENT
 By MRS. SIDNEY NJ. ULLMAN

After the child has been found and the case investigated the case is put into the hands of cooperating agents, such as the Childrens Aid society and the juvenile court and are then considered according to the judgment of the presiding officer.
 The work of the Humane society being chiefly with animals, their intervention ceases when the child is put into the best hands to carry out the work.
 From the juvenile court and Aid society many are found suitable homes, adopted and cared for by reliable persons; many others sent to the sheltering arms of the Mercy Home. When possible the child Is returned to the mother for a test, and in the event she can prove worthy she may keep the child.
 This chain of work shows the co-opera- tion in a large city Of the many institu- tions working along the same line with each other in the life and welfare of the child. It is an evidence of the necessity of the many institutions interchanging ideas and considering conditions, working like an endless chain for the betterment of humanity.

Many consider the work of the Humane society entirely mission of mercy for an- imals, but the work of this society is also to protect the child from the abuse of an improper home, from shiftless and incompetent guardians, from the dis regard through neglect of the best inter- ests of the child.
 In the annual report of the Humane so- ciety of Birmingham for 1914 cases of cruelty to white children were B and col ored children IT. Almost all of these cases were based on the improper guardianship of the children, at least 95 per cent of these cases being directly traced to drunk enness of parents. Failure to provide suit able food and clothing and shelter, as well as medical attention for the child, abandonment, etc, are some of the other causes that would necessitate the removal Of child from it's environment.
 Complaints are often found upon inves- tigation to be groundess, sent in through spite; sometimes the offense is slight and and a threat is sufficient to cause immed- fate changes. Under these circumstances there is no necessity of taking away the child.

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help to
put out the fire? 1t is much the same
way with a cough, A cough is dan
ger signal as much as a fire bell. You
should no more try to suppress it than
to stop fire bell when it is ringing,
but should cure the disease that causes
the coughing. This can nearly always
be done by taking Chamberlain'S
Cough Remedy. Many have used it
with the most beneficial results. 1t
is especially valuable for the most ben
efcial results. 1t is especially valuable
for the persistent cough that so often
follows bad cold or an attack of the
grip. Mrs. Thomas Beeching, An.

Cough Remedy is the best medicine
for breaking up these attacks and you
