 HOPE or REiUR ING Went to Atlanta 6 Weeks Ago
 Pr0pped Up on Pillows
 Takes Tanlac and Gains 5
 Pounds
 A short time ago MT. J. B. Battle, who is well known in Atlanta, came into Jacobs Pharmacy to get bottle of Tanlac for his sister-in-law, Mrs. Q. c. Cason, who lives some distance out of Atlanta, near Acwirth. While making the purchase, MT. Battle told of the wonderful improvement in Mrs. Casons condition since she began us ing the medicine about six weeks ago.
 He also made the statement that Mrs. Cason felt so grateful for the wonderful benefit she had received that she wanted to make public statement as she felt it her duty to tell the whole world about Tanlac. He then suggested that Dr. Elder, the Tanlac representative at Jacobs, call at his residence for a personal inter- view.
 When Dr. Elder called at Mir. Bat ties residence on English avenue, the following morning, it happened that Mr. Battle himself met him at the door and very cordially invited him into his living room. Mrs. Cason, who was bright and happy, soon made her appearance and began with de- light to tell of the wonderful recovery of her health, and her statement will go down in history as being one of the most remarkable ever given a pre- prietary medicine. Here is her story in her own words:
 About six weeks ago l left my home on our farm near Acworth, Ga, to come to my sisters home here Tn Atlanta, and 1 left with only sha- dow of hope of ever returning alive to my home and husband.
 q left Acworth," she continued, "in a comfortable automobile, propped up on pillows. coming through the coun- try 1 had almost as much medicine as 1 had baggage-a big box full or all kinds of medicines that had been prescribed for me- I reached here very weak and exhausted and with scarcely enough strength to walk to the door. This trouble, from which 1 had suffered so long, had reduced me to almost a shadow, as I only weighed 60 pounds.
 My brother-in-law, MT. Battle, said, Well, oyu have tried everything a'se with no relief, now l want you to lay aside your drug shop and take Tanlac.' Of course I was willing to try it. for the medicine is the talk of the whole country Well, he got it for me and started on my first bottle that day.
 When l had taken about half of the first bottle began to feel strong CT and encouraged. l continued to take it and it is nothing short of mar vicious how l improved day by day, l felt myself further and further from the grave. My appetite returned and my food seemed to nourish me and agree with me. My skin and complex i2a began clearing up and improved lin every way possible until am now a well woman, and when I say well, I mean absolutely what l say, I want to tell the whole world that I thank Go1 and Tanlac
 "I weigh 95 pounds now and feel as well as I ever felt in my life. I am going back to my husband and home on the little farm five miles from Ac- worth tomorrow, and won't it be joy ful meeting, returning to my husband and home absolutely well and happy and won't tell everybody about what Tanlac has done for me?"
 "Yes, it's just like she says" chim- ed in Mir. Battle about this time.

AMSTERDAM. Sept. 9.--Although
it is not admitted in Germany, the
famous old German coffee houses, the
popular resort of the masses. is about

war.
There's a reason.
Germany is about out OF coffee.
For the last two years the Ger
mans have used RESERVE supplies Of
coffee stored in Hamburg and Bre-
men. Antwerps supply augmented
this when 1t fell to the Germans in
1914. There since has been a little
from Holland and Scandinavia.
Today. however. the British have so
effectively stopped shipments to ports
reshipping to Germany that none is
available therefrOm. Germany is
brewing the last Of her precious ber-
ries.
Before the war Germany imported
about 80 million dollars worth OF cof-
fee year mostly from Brazil and
Guatemala.

provisions Of the Adamson eight-hour
law for railway workers until direct
ed to do so by the Supreme Court,

Committee on Interstate and Foreign
Commerce. the author of the law.
Mr.. Adamson said he would soon
make an extended reply to the argu-
ments of those who have attacked the
constutionality of the eight-hour bill.

gressional Record but Mr.. Adamson

ali can say at this time is that If
Mr. Ripley or any other railroad Off

first step taken will be the swearing
out of a warrant and the violators are
likely to find themselves in jail. II

A couple Of young fellows from
Nordness, we believe, came to Ossian
Sunday night with a motorcar, on the
Rock Island railroad. The boys left
the car standing on the track, near F..
Frantzen's grocery store, and went
about town, believeing that all was
safe, especially on Sunday, as there
were no trains moving over this divi-
sion. A little later in the evening
the Rock Island motercar, belonging
to the Ossian section, was taken out
by some one in authority and started
west at a pretty good clip. The Os-
sian contingent didn't see the Nord-
ness car and there was a collision,
but not serious one, no one having
sustained injury. The Nordness car
was Jared somewhat, throwing out
of commission some of the intricate
and the boys had quite
a time starting the blamed thing.
