BERLIN, Feb. 11.-On February is
Admiral Won Tirpitz' threat, made
several months ago. that eventually
Germany would find 1t necessary to
"starve out England" will go into ef-
feet. or at least the Kaiser's dogs
of war will try to make the blockade
of English ports effective through the
use Of the Kiel fleet, the destroyer
flotilla and the huge submarine boats
of unrevealed cruising radius. When
Won Tirpitz first mentioned the Ger
man plan to isolate England he was
not taken seriously. Even now, since
the imperial announcement has been
made that all English waters consti-
tute war zone" the British Admir-
atty expresses contempt Just walt
we, have named the day when our
blockade will become effective. We
will make It effective" say the Ger
man naval officials.

Woman'S Health
Requires Care

Women are so constituted as to
be peculiarly susceptible to consti-
patton. and their general health
depends in large measure on care
full regulation and correction Of
this tendency. Their delicate or
ganisms rebel at the violence OF
cathartic and purgative remedies,
which. while they may afford tenn
porary relief. shock the system and
seriously disturb the functional
organs. A mild laxative is far pre-
ferable and, II properly compound
ed. much more effective.
The combination OF simple laxa-
tive herbs with pepsin sold in
drug stores under the name Of DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is ideal
for women's use. A free trial bot

When Actor Made an Enemy.

When Actor Made an Enemy.
 Willie Edouin once told of an actor in a certain company who one day in' cautiously disclosed the secret that he was actually saving $2 week. The rest of the company were dnmfounded Ut it. Then they enjoyed "the joke" immensely. He was chaffed unnerci. fully. There was only one person present who did not join in the fun against him. He remained silent and when the money saver left te took an opportunity of slipping out after him xnd congratulated him on his common sense in providing for rainy day. Then he informed him that he himself had often thought of doing the sam% thing, but circumstances had always been against him, and just then he was at his wits ends. Would the saver 22ind lending him, say. a ten spot till Sunday? He did not get 1t and became from that time one of tho mos:. bitter ridiculers of saving as tending to make a man think of nc one but himself. It really requires courage in many circles to own to one's qualities.

JEFFERSON GIRL
 CHAMPION CANNER Miss Martha Culpepper Earns More Than Any Can ming Club Member in Ark PROFITS A RE $l3,142 Miss Mary FOrtner, Returning From State Conference, Reports Girls Produced Last Year Vegetables
 Valued at $Is.GS0.
PROFITS A RE; SIS, ,142

Miss Mary Fortner, canning club agent for .IeffersCn county, has re- turned from the state conference of canning club agents. at Fayetteville, enthusiastic about the work done in the past in this line, and determined that 1915 shall bring even greater re- suits for Jefferson county.
 Miss Fortner took particular pleas ure in announcing that the Jefferson county girls last year earned an aver age profit from their canning cluD work which was greater than the average profit of the state, Jefferson county girls averaging profits of S2S. 62, while the state average was only $22.62.
 A Jefferson county girl, Martha Cul pepper, earned more money from her canning club work than any other girl ii tho state but because she did not keep a complete record, nor make a written report as demanded by the rules of the club, a scholarship at the state university, which would have been hers, was awarded a girl from Randolph county. Miss Culpeppar earned $211.s1 last year, over and above all expenses, as a result of her canning club work.
 Some of the results achieved by the canning club girls of the state last year, as reported at the Fayetteville conference, were as follows:
 Total value of vegetables raisedl $1S,6SO.39.
 Total profit to club members, $13,- 142.22.
 Average cost per member, $9.33.
 Various products put up required 41,677 cans and S5,242 glass jars.
 Total of 349,745 pounds of tomatoes were raised and canned.
 Three counties raised an1 canlied 37,571 pounds of other vegetables.
 Membership in canning clubs of the state, 1,1S0.
 Membership in poultry clubs of the state, 2O1.
 The great advisability of having rural school teachers cooperate with the canning club agents was brought out strongly in the talks at the con- ference, and the canning club agents were also instructed to pay greater attention to the new department of work, covering home economics. Wives of farmers are to be interested in home economies, as we'll as the girls.

TAX COLLECTING TOT7R.
Deputy Sheriff stewart CoAcIude, Trip. Few Accepting Oppor-
 tunity.

Deputy Sheriff T. P. Stewart yes terday completed his tax collecting tour of the county, finishing at Red field. The tour is made compulsory by ancient law, but is not consiGereu profitable as only about S4000 was collected during the tour and not all this was paid at the places visited, 2 considerable amount being turned into the office here. The results show that less than l per cent of the $425,- GOO taxes assessed are paid during the trip of the deputy collector.
 From now until April 10, when taxe~ become delinquent, taxes may be paid at the collectors office in th3 courthouse
