STILL WANT WHITE COOKS
Man Who Feeds Army Just as Much a Hero as Those
 Who Fight

The ladies' auxiliary of Batteries \ and c of Birmingham is taking steps to make the life of the boys while in service as comfortable as conditions will allow
 These ladies are now devoting their efforts specially toward getting com potent white cooks to enlist with the i batteries. They belieev that there has been too much levity in the discussion of this matter and that the question Of getting competent cooks is really one which means everything for the health and well-being of the boys.
 Furthermore, they believe that the man who enlists in the batteries as cook is just as much hero and entitled to just as much glory as those who take up arms and do the actual fighting. They believe that each man of the militia is doing is part if he does that for which he is best fitted and does it well.
 Several young men have been inter- ested in the plan of enlistng as cooks since it is found that the government regulations do not permit the carrying of negro cooks. These young men have been taken to Montgomery on trial and they hope they will 2e able to make good. They want to 20 with the army and they believe the part they will play is just as important as that of the men who handle the artillery. The batteries, however. are still eager to get in touch with men who believe they could render service in this way

htec drawing showing sxsto remodng

The second and third floors of the annex will be used for the extension of the pres | ent departments and the entire fourth | floor will be occupied with the public and
 private offices, and the auditing and ac- | counting departments. This will be 9 | daylight floor and is to be so constructed | that there will be no need for any artifi- | cial light with the exception of short | time each day during the winter months. | A modern tearoom will be arranged on
 the fourth floor of the present building. | The fifth and sixth floors will be reserved l for stock rooms.
 The construction of the annex and the | remodeling of the present building will
 be done under the supervision of Starrett l & Van VIeck of New York and Joy & 1 Gallup of Birmingham. Bids have been asked for on the annex and it is expected 1 that the contract will be awarded with
 out delay.

 ments. M. " Joseph is president of the 1 corporation; A. B. Loveman. vice pres- | dent J. H. Loveman, secretary and Leo Loeb is general manager. The | beginning of the company in Brming l ham was in 1887, when A. B. Loveman l opened a store here. M. V. Joseph be- 1 came associated with the firm a short I time later. The first part of the present l building was erected in 1890 covering a space of 60x2OO feet. In 1898, an addi- | tional frontage of 80 feet was added and the growth of the business in recent years l has made the construction of the annex l necessary. Some years ago, realizing the | future needs of the firm, all the property | back of the site of the present building was purchased, extending to Eighteenth | street.
 1 '"The growth of our business has made the construction of the annex necessary 1 declared J. H. Ioveman yesterday. We lave been badly crowded for several years and with the splendid business conditions now existing and the pros- poets for further improvements, we have 1 found it advisable to construct this ad
 dition and at the same time remodel our | present store This will give us unques- t,onably the largest department store in ] the south. When we open the completed 1 building it is our purpose to add a com plete department for men, making that one of the most attractive of all the l departments in the store.''

 The income tax section of the bill in- creases the normal tax on every ndi- vidual and corporation to per cent in stead of the present 1 per cent, does not lower the S3000-$4 minimum exemption
 limit, but reclassifes and gradually in creases the surtax from 1 per cent on
 incomes of $20,000-s40, GOO to 10 per cent on all above $500, 000 The administrative pro- visions follow generally those of existing
 law. The rates are now applicable to the
 present year.
 The new munitions tax fixes a schedule
 of percentages of the gross annual re-
 manufacturing gunpowder and other ex- plosives, 5 per cent on receipts under $1 600 900, and per cent on all above that amount; manufacturers of cartridges. pro- jectiles and firearms or their parts, per cent on gross receipts up to $250, GOO; per cent on receipts of s250,0O0- $500, 600; 1 per

 The anti-dumping clause would provide a new tariff schedule on dyestuffs, plac- ing benzol and other ingredients on the free list and imposing a duty of 15 per cent on intermediates and 30 per cent on colors and dyes.
 Tn addition, there are special duties of 21s cents a pound on intermediates and 5 cents on finished dyes and colors, to remain in force for five years. at the end of which time they would be decreased at the rate of 20 per cent a year.

 connected with business or trade of the taxpayer, the losses actually sustained therein during the year to an amount not exceeding the profits arising therefrom' shall be deducted This is designed to apply particularly to stock brokerage.

His Wife Has Gained Fifteen Pounds on Only Three
 Bottles of Medicine
SICK AND RUN DOWN
 FOR NEARLY 20 YEARS
Was Hardly Able to Get Around, But Since Taking Tanlac She Is Able to Do
 Own Housework

I'm taking 40-mile trip to get more Tanlac." was the remarkable state ment made by J. D. Hawkins, well known and prosperous farmer to the ,Tanlac representative in Jacobs phar- macy, Memphis, Tenn. a few days ago
 ''Yes. sir" continued MT. Hawkins q live at Bartlett, Tenn. and I drove eight miles to Raleigh this morning and caught a trolley car there fol Memphis, which is 12 miles more, SC you see when l get back home I've travelled 40 miles. and that ought to be proof enough of what l think ot Tanlac.
 q declare I never saw or heard ot a medicine doing as much good as Tanlac. My wife has gained 15 pounds on three bottles of it and besides ii has gotten her over troubles that have been weakening her down for nearly 20 years, and I don't aim for her to be without it. She suffered awfully with indigestion and was growing very weak and badly rundown Every single thing she would eat made gas and gave her severe pains in the stomach She had no appetite at all and what little she would force herself to eat hurt her so bad it seems she would have been better off without eating it She suffered terribly with nervous headache and couldn't sleep on accourt of it. She was so tired all the time she never felt like doing a thing Iu fact, she wasn't able to do any of heI housework at all. She had tried ev- erything without getting any relief and I was about to give uE in despair when I read about Tanlac and got her a bottle of it.
 T just can't say too much for Tan lac for my wife's improvement has been wonderful. She can do all her mousse work now and before she could scarce ly get around at all. She is relieved ot the indigestion and has a good appe- tite. She eats most anything she wants and is relived of the gas and pains she used to have. Her nerves are quiet and she sleeps good at night and don't have the sick headache like she did As I have already said, she has gained Is pounds in weight and is gaining strength and health all the time since taking Tanlac. She looks so much bet ter all our neighbors are talking about her improvement It certainly has done wonders for her and I wouldn't let her be without it for anything, and that's the reason I'm taking this 40-mile trip today to get more of it for her I cer- tainly do indorse Tanlac for [ think it is the greatest medicine in the world.'
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu- sively by Patton-Pope Drug Co, anc Eugene Jacobs Drug store: in Fnsley by D. w. Morris Drug Co.,: in Besse- mer by Pegram Patton Drug Co.,; in Pratt City by Gale Drug Co.; and in North Birmingham by Walker Drug Co.-Adv.

UNIDENTIFIED MAN
 ASSAULTS CHILD
Huge Posse Securing Woods for As sailant of Ruth Boysell Near
 Sandusky

Almost a hundred armed men were securing the country and watching all trains in the neighborhood of Sandusky and Docena yesterday afternoon and last night looking for a negro who is al- legged to have criminally assaulted Ruth Boysell, the 11-year-old daughter of John Boysell, early yesterday morning. At a late hour last night news of the capture had not reached the sheriff's office, but the searching parties kept up their vigil lance.
 From the reports, the little girl was going from the house to the spring for some water, and while on the way was attacked by the negro man. As soon as the news got out a posse was organized and every effort has been made to run down the negro The sheriff's office was notified and several deputies went out to aid in the search. The deputies reported last night that the feeling was running high against the negro and he probably would be lynched if caught by the cit iZens.

old building will be connected through out without any partitions. There will be continuous mezzanine on the first floor running the entire length of the
 building on the north and the south ! sides. It will be utilized for manicure parlors, kodak supplies, optical rooms and other small departments of that na- ture.
 The office a present on the meZzanine will be removed to the fourth floor and the space thus vacated will be utilized as an addition to the phono- graph department. A concert hall will l be feature of this department. The basement of the annex will be utilized for locker rooms and lavator- ies for employees. and all the receiving and shipping will take place in this basement.

 rest room for men, possibly the first place of this kind ever introduced in a department store. On the mezzanine of the annex VII be the ladies writing and rest room. which will connect with a splendid retiring room.

The portion of the line selected by the British for the inauguration of the drive runs from the Somme northward past AL bert to a point about eight miles south of Arras It is on the section of the vest ern front which runs roughly north and south from the North sea through Bel gium and northern France, before 1t swings sharply to the south and east, and or to the Swiss border.
 There has been much heavy fighting over this ground, but not to the extent of that further north, where lie the bat tlefields of Arras. I.oos, Neuve Chappelle, Ypres and Dixmud.
 During the early stages of the battle of Verdun, when the French were com pelled to bring up large reserves to meet the German drive the British took over a long section of French trenches and now hold about 30 miles of the western front.
