BROWNSVILLE, Tenn.
Gov. T. c. Rye Nashville, Tenn.--ln
the name of every man who loves the
state and stands for law enforcement,
CONGRATULATE you. You have won
over rum and radicals and ! sincerely
pray that you will recommend and
have passed in the early days of the
Legislature an anti-storage and a
search and seizure law and let the
lawbreakers understand that Tonnes
see and the democratic party stands
for righteousness. My time is yours
to help enact these laws and you can
command me. MANN WILLS.
Mr., Wills, as treasurer of the state
campaign committee, has rendered val
lent service to the party and to him is
due much credit for the magnificent
victory achieved, During the heat of
the campaign Gov. Rye was heard to
make the following significant state
ment: II can always tell when Mann
Wills reaches town, for there is some-
thing doing when he is around" :
The anti-storage and search and
seizure law proposed by Mr. Wills
would go a long way toward rendering
the prohibition laws of the state eff
fective. There is nothing more de-
moralizing to a community, outside of
the open saloon, than the common
practice resorted to by some merchants
Of keeping liquor stored on the premi-
SEES for the purpose Of treting custom
ers who can be bought in this way
Let a whiskey loving fellow know that
he can get a drink in the back room
when he has finished trading and there
is not much trouble in separating him
from his money. Merchants who will
not resort to this means of getting
trade should be protected from those
who will and do, by just such a law
as that proposed by Mr.. Wills. 1t is
not worth while to dwell on the moral
value of such legislation, this will be
conceded by all. The States Graphic
heartily endorses Mr.. Wills sugges-
ton and recommends the passage Of
such law by the incoming legislature.

FRITZ KREISLER
HERE TONIGHT
World Famous Violihist at Or
pheum; Special Traffic Rules
Will Be Enforced

There has been a very large sale of
seats for the Fritz Kreisler recital at
the Orpheum Theater this evening, but
the rumor that was circulated yesterday
to the effect that the house had been sold
out was untrue. There are still plenty
of choice seats remaining for the late
comers, so it was announced by the
this morning.
Kreisler is known to crowd nightly
the auditoriums and theaters of the
great and small cities wherever he goes,
which speaks we'll for the genius and
of the violinist. Music lovers
in this city are fortunate to have the
opportunity of hearing the master at
this time, for Kreisler was engaged in
the present great war as a lieutenant
until wounded by CossackS lance i'll
hand -to-hand fight before Lemberg.
Special traffic rules will be in force
tonight in order that the crowds may
be handled efficiently and with dis
patch. All carriages and autom obiles
will approach from the Second street
side, and after receiving their number
will pass on around the square and
park on the Second street side. The re-
cital will begin at S:3O o'clock. Requests
for encores should be handed in at the
box office in writing. No person will
be seated during the rendition of any

PREVENT RELAPSES OF GRIP

This is the time of year when those
who have had the form of influenza
known as "the grip" are suffering from
the condition in which the disease in-
variably leaves its victims.
Grip leaves the blood thin and this
anemia which follows grip is very stub
born one in resisting treatment. Itmust
be corrected however before any cure can
be considered permanent. AS long as
the blood remains thin there will con-
sinue the relapses with which most suf-
ferers from grip are familiar. Warmth
and quiet alone give comfort and these
not for long at time. Sleep is restless
and does not refresh the nerves which
are always at high tension.
The best way to correct this after EFFECT
of the grip is to build up the blood and
there is no better blood builder than DIR.
Williams Pink Pills.
AS soon as the revitalized blood courses
through the system you are aware of its
soothing influence. Gradually the color
returns to the pale cheeks, appetite and

Amazing but Rarely Suspected Truths About the
Things You Eat.
Copyright 1915. by w. McCann.)

100000 children have spinal cur
vature.
100000 children have defective
hearing.
1000, 900 children are suffering from
malnutrition.
100000 children have enlarged
tonsils, adenoids, or other gland dis
eases.
100000 children have defective
teeth.
100000 children need attention
for physical defects which are preju-
dicial to health.
Do you not think 1t legitimate for us
to ask the reason why?
Do you not think 1t our duty, II
the answer to that question be an
honest one, we'll fortified by facts, to
heed the truth and apply it's lesson?
To them who think so these words
are addressed.
We know that in the last year re-
ported by the census director at Wash
ington 159, ,435 infants under one year
of age perished in the United States.
This appalling sacrifice of infants
indicates that that nearly 100000
American women entered into the
shadows of motherhood unfit to bring
their children into the world or, having
brought them into the world, unfit to
LOE
The study of these brutal facts
should not alarm us unduly; it should
inspire hope. BY ignoring the truth
or by refusing to look into it because
of the grim depression which accom-
panies the contemplation of such a
holocaust we betray our unworthiness
of a better fate.
BY facing the situation bravely and
by determining to find out the cause
nf n1nripaiQ clanOhfnr Nf the tnnn-
cents we prove that In some measure
at least We are worthy to account for
our stewardship of the lives that have
been put into our keeping.
If. in the year 1916. hostile army
should visit our shores and put to
death nearly 10000 of our children
there would be weeping and wailing
and gnashing of teeth. We should
cry to heaven for vengeance and in
letters of blood the world would re-
cord in the history of the twentieth
century a crime unparalleled in all
the ages of savagery.
That hostile army has indeed visit
ed our shores and is now ruthlessly de-
stroying our children. 1t is the army
of ignorance, Indifference, complacen-
cy, selfishness, greed and passion.
The crowds in the market-place. in
the cars, on the streets, in the thea
ter, give no thought to the waste OF
life going on around them. They do
not heed with desolatlon is the
earth made desolate because no man
thinketh in his heart"
If most of these deaths are prevent
able, and If by teaching the funda-
mental principles of life to our school
children, to our young women and
men, to our young mothers and faith
ers, we can make this dreadful thing
impossible, then indeed the remedy
concerns us all and our failure to heed
the facts as they stand becomes little
short of tolerated murder.

CHAPTER 10

Sf1<AE ~
A hostile army has visited our
shores and is now ruthlessly destroy
ing our children. Shall we repel the
slaughter?
We have learned with shocking
surprise that in the last mortality sta
tistics issued by the census director
at Washington there were reported
in the United States for one year the
deaths of 376.s70 children under ten
years of age.
The record of these deaths was
compiled in what is known as the
Registration Area" which, in the
year 1918, embraced only 65.1 per
cent. of the total population of the
United States, the other 34.9 per
cent. lying outside the Registration
Area" as it is now composed.
The total deaths in the "Registra-
ton Area" in 1913 were S90,S48, of
which $4,000 were of white persons.
The Registration Area contains as
yet few Southern States in which the
negro population is large. 1t is thus
seen that the high mortality record
among the negroes has in no manner
affected the figures reported here,
which would be still larger If the
negro population were taken into
consideration.
ed the deaths of 235, ,260 children un-
der ten years OF age. The "Registra-
ton Area" was then much smaller.
While we were moaning and groan-
ing over the fatalities of the most
terrifying war that has ever cursed
civilization, we were unmindful of the
fact that during the past four years
100000 children under ten years of
age have been allowed to die in pain
in tho ITnifad Sfntnc nf An1arinQ
If these children, a million and a
half of them, had lost their lives in
an epidemic or in a massacre 1t
would have indeed aroused the ma
ton. But if the little army, secretly
condemned, travel obscurely into
death the nation neither heeds nor
understands.
Are we not all alive and we'll
Are we not all wonderfully fed q?
Never was a nation better fed" they
tell us. Yet here are the facts:
When the Titanic and the Lusi-
tania went down with few more
than 1000 souls aboard the cities of
civilization put on a cloak OF sorrow.
A few thousand perished, but they
perished in a heap. Mans power for
them had come to an end.
The earth was dazed because these
two tragedies were strange and sud
den. The slow moving, deadlier peril
that walks with us by day and lies
with us at night arouses no man.
While we are forgetful of facts and
congratulating ourselves without
cause, let us see upon what foundation
our happiness rests.
A bulletin prepared as long ago as
1912 by the United States Bureau of
Education declares that:
100000 children have organic heart
disease.
100000 children have tuberculosis
in some form.

Sure Way to Get
Rid of Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this, just
get about four ounces of plain, or
binary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will COM
pletely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of it, no
matter how much dandruff you may
have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop
instantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times bet
ter.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store 1t is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need. This
simple remedy has never been known
to fail.-Advertiseme

Zen1o For DGndruff

You do not want a slow treatment
when hair is falling and the dandruff
means-no hair
Get at any drug store bottle of
zemo for 25c or S1.00 for extra large
size. Use as directed. for it does the
work quickly. 1t kills the dandruff
germ, nourishes the hair roots and i'm
mediately stops itching scalp. 1t is
use and will not stain. Soaps and
shampoos are harmful. as they contain
alkali. The best thing to use is zemo,
for IL is pure and also inexpensive.

FINDS NEW REMEDY
FOR ECZEMA
Andseptic Ucanol Is Credited With
Great Success.

The many sufferers from eczema in
this vicinity will welcome the news
that a new antiseptic has been dis
covered to relieve the itching and
soreness almost as soon as it is ap-
piled, and which already has won for
itself a remarkable record for its
healing and curative properties in
some of the worst and most chronic
cases.
Antiseptic Ucanol aims to kill the
germs when applied to the diseased
skin-to grow new, healthy flesh that
is free from soreness and eruption.
A liberal supply of antiseptic
Ucanol can be had for not more than
so cents at any good druggists, while
H. c. Kennedy sells it with a guaran-
tee to refund the money If Ucanol
does not do all that is claimed.
Do not suffer longer with eczema
or other skin troubles but use this
scientific combination of healing anti
septic agents combined in antiseptic
Ucanol and get quick relief.
