Danger Signs of Tuberculosis
SOCIAL SERVICE DEPARTMErr By MRS. SIDNEY V. LILLIAN

Sometime back the services of this de- partment was solicited to aid in a cam paign of education against tuberculosis. Articles have been contributed putting forth danger of neglect of the disease and the necessity of education along this line so that the "ounce of prevention' may be used and the dread disease stopped in Alabama.
 In the course of many lectures in all parts of the state" said 5Dr. George Eaves, mo question has been asked so frequently as this What are the signs of possible tuberculosis? The following article answers the question in very sim pie language.
 Tt is sad beyond words continues Dr. Eaves. when people come to a clinic thinking that they have only slight sick ness. or at the worst very early symptoms of tuberculosis, and they learn that they are in an advanced stage and dangerous condition. We are working hard to get all people, even the doctors themselves to be on their guard lest they neglect or fail to recognize the early stages of the disease that grows incurable by neglect Ninety per cent of the cases that come to the free tuberculosis dispensary are past the incipient stage. Why this trag- edy?'
 These arc the danger signs sent out by the Alabama Anti-Tubercuoss league. They should be read with care:

 II naturally come in contact with a great many travelling people" states Mrs. Van Nostrand. Since Vitalitas has been pla ced on this market l have heard so much in it's praise that take pleasure in writing of the same. Also, felt justified to recommend it to several of my customers who complained of being run down. In each case l have had them tell me 1t seemed to be just the tonic they needed and they could not say enough in it's praise.''
 Vitalftas is different from man-made remedies. It is wholly, and purely a natural product extracted from a re- markable earth stratum that Is rich in mineral properties. It is wonderful tonic and corrective and 1t gives to i'm povcrished and rundown systems the natural elements that help to restore health.

CARRANzA WILL
 REJECT PROPOSED
 PLANS FOR PEACE
Will Reply to United States Within a Few Days. Says He Deserves
 Recognition

Washington, August 17.-General Car ranza will reply to the Pan-American ap- peal to Mexico within a few days, it was learned tonight. He will reject the peace conference proposal urged by the Pan American conference and 1t is reported will suggest that the conferees use thei,. influence to obtain recognition for his gov ernment
 According to his friends here. Carranza appreciated the friendly tone of the Pan American appeal. He has consulted his civil and military associates and has com municated with his Washington agents. As a result of these conferences it is declared. the general had determined to make a courteous reply. giving his req sons for rejecting the conference plan and arguing that recognition for the Car ranza government Is warranted and necessary for the re-establishment of peace
 That some of the Latn-American diplo- mats already have been apprized of Car ranza's probable course has been To- ported. Elizio Arredondo, Carranza' s agent here, conferred yesterday in Phila- delphia with Eduardo Suarez, Chilean ani- bassador to the United States, one of the Pan-American conferees. He is said to have submitted informally some sugges- tions regarding the present strength cf the Carrranza cause.
 No formal replies to the peace appeals have reached the state department.
 Quiet prevailed along the Mexican bor- der today, war department reports indi- cated. Some anxiety for Americans in Vera Cruz is felt again, however, because of the circulation of plaeards there con taining highly inflammatory' language and protesting against interference in Mexican affairs. Secretary Daniels said the battleships Louisiana and New Hamp- shire would reach Vera Cruz tomorrow morning.

INVENTED BY AN AUSTRIAN
Torpedo, So F~earfuIly Destructive, 10
Comparatively Modern Weapon
of Warfare.

The modern torpedo is virtually a
locomotive mine, the charge being
carried in the head of a long, cigar
shaped steel body propelled by its
W machinery and kept on its course
by means of a g~yroscope. The history
of this weapon dates only from 1866,
in which year an Austrian officer, Cap
tain Lupus, submitted the germ OF
the idea to Mr.. Whitehead, then man
ager OF an engineering works In Fl
ume. BY him the weapon was per
fected, and the British torpedo is
still known by his name. The most
up-to-date torpedoes are credited with
a range of about 10000 yards, over
which they are propelled by engines
driven by compressed air which is
heated, and therefore made capable
of doing more work, on Its way to the
engines. The rate of speed varies
from forty to twenty knots, according
to the distance which is to be trav-
eled, and although the weapons can
be set to travel at varying depths be
low the surface, nine feet is the usual
distance. this taking them well below
