HUNTSVILLE

Huntsville, January 12-(Special. ) A strong letter urging the voters of Alabama to vote for the proposed issue of state bonds in next weeks election has been written by Capt. John w. Grayson Madison county member of the legislature, and published here. Captain Grayson says the defeat of the bond issue will cause a very radical increase in the rate of taxation, thing which is opposed by everybody. He says Ala bama owes more than $2,000,000 which it cannot pay unless bonds are issued. The bond issue is the only way to pro vide money for the state to meet it's debts, he says, and no one has sug- gested any better way, and no one has suggested any other way

PUBLIC WORKS HERE
AT LEAST EXPENSE.
RECORDS kept SHOW DODGE BROTH.
ERS MACHINES DO Miles AT
Two CENTS FLAT.

The report of the department of
pubic works on the individual main
tenance cost of 81 automobiles oper.
ated by the department shows the
Dodge Brothers motor car operated
by Mr. John Dunn was the most
economically driven car in the de-
partment. The statistics include
every expense incurred by the cars
from July l, 1915, to December /,
1915, gasoline, oil, repair cost, tire
expense, etc, and show that Mr.
Dunn's car was operated at the low
cost of exactly two cents per mile.
The five Dodge Brothers cars
used in the department also are
given several records which place
them at the top of the low mainte-
nance records. Not one of the 81
used in the department was run for
the six months at a lower cost per
mile than any one of the five Dodge
Brothers cars. They also showed
the highest mileage, the lowest ex.
pense on tires and the greatest mile.

touring car in the department. =.
Three of the Dodge cars were
operated for the six months without
any expense on tires. On the other
two cars Of this make the only tire
expense was for the replacement of
spare tires which were stolen from
the machine.
The report shows many interest.
ing comparisons of the maintenance
cost of automobiles which range in
cost from two cents mile for the
Dodge Brothers car to 27 cents q
mile for one of the heavy duty
trucks.
Such figures are interesting to
motor car owners and to prospec-
tive buyers of motor cars" said
Thomas ] Doyle, local distributor
for Dodge Brothers cars.
In these days of the high cost of
gasoline every one is looking for a
car that can be operated economi-
cally, but it is seldom you can find
any owner who can tell you the
exact cost per mile for the opera
ton of his car. Such Dodge Broth
ers owners who have recorded the
expense for their cars have found
them exceedingly low and that they
we're getting unusually high mile.

Dancers OF Draft.

Drafts feel best when we are hot
and perspiring, just when they are
most dangerous and the result is neu-
ralgia, stiff neck, sore muscles OF
sometimes an attack of rheuma-
tism. In such cases apply Sloan's
Liniment. 1t stimulates circula-
ton to the sore and painful part.
The blood flows freely and in short
time the stiffness and pain leaves.
Those suffering from neuralgia OF
neuaalgic headache will find one OF
two applications Of sloan's Liniment
will give grateful relief. The agoniz-
ing pain gives way to a tingling sen.
sation of comfort and warmth and
quiet rest and sleep is possible. Good
for neuritis too. Price 25c, at youl

Message of Easter.

Easter again proclaims its mes
sage to the world. Nature lends
her enchantment to the day, and
makes all things bright with her
unfolding promise of the resurrec-
ton. The wooded hills, the mystic
canyons, the fowered meadows, the
home-building birds, the sparkling
dewdrops on grass and flowers awak-
en-, under the warming rays OF the
rising sun, into world beautiful,
made sweeter by the presence OF
Him who is risen from the dead.
And man, looking up from his
work, rejoices.
In city and country; in art-domed
cathedral and isolated church; in
mansion and cabin is sung in har-
monious cadence, sometimes soft
and low, and, then again, in ac-
CELEBRATED movement, the glad tidings
of Eastertide, with its message OF
the day and to the days toilers,
Christ is risen!"
So man must ever seek to rise
superior to the destructive forces
around him. He must measure up
to his ideal if he would escape the
debasement wrought by the domi-
nance of his lower self. In no other
way can he expect to live the. ideal
life. His inspiration and ideal are
found in Christ. His entrance as
an amateur into the Christian life is
but indicative Of his growth into
that of an artist. And in this pro-
gressive cumulative ascendancy he
is conscious of the leadership of
One, who, by one decisive stroke of
matchless power, in the resurrec-
ton from the death, proved his
Sonship, authority, superiority and
divinity.
= Therefore, however wild and steep
your path may be; however mighty
the sweep of sinful propensities and
habits; however dark and threaten
ing the clouds that cross your path,
take heart and press on! Casters
message is for the world. 1t puts a
song in the individual heart. So as
nature responds to the touch Of
spring, may mankind everywhere
enter into the spirit at Easter

ATLANTA SHERIFF COMES
OUT WITH STRONG BOOST,
Seyenty-Year.0Id Official is Filled With
Gratitude.
RECOMMENDS TANLAC.
Declares He Feels 1t His Duty to
Praise Medicine Which Helped
Him So Much.

''Tanlac has certainly helped Inc
and I recommend it to others for
what it has done in my case," said
Hon C w Mangum, Sheriff Of Full
ton county, of Atlanta, Ga.
Sheriff Mangum needs no intro
duction to the people of this section,
as he is unquestionably not only
one of the best. known but one OF
the most popular officials in the
State Of Georgia. He is also known
to be, by everyone, a kind, genial
gentleman of the old school and has
the reputation of being the biggest
hearted man in public life today.
His friends are legion-and his ex-
treme popularity as man and as a
public official IS further attested by
the fact that he is now serving his
third term as Sheriff of Fulton
county.
For some years he was a railroad
official, but has been in public life
since 1907. He served in the Con-
federate army from 1862 to 1865 in
the first Georgia regiment, and later
in the fifth Georgia.
Yes" continued the Sheriff,
your medicine has done me lots OF
good and l have personally recon-
mended it to a great many people.
I know of at least Is or 20 families
who have bought it on my say 80.
Il am seventy years old and have
most always been pretty strong and
healthy until here lately. | have
been in a nervous, worn out, run
down condition. My stomach was
upset most of the time and digest
ed my food poorly. Most always
after eating I would have full, un-
comfortable feeling that would last
for several hours.
AFTER taking the second bottle
of Tanlac the fullness and all the
disagreeable symptoms disappeared
and nv condition is now that OF a
well man. Inow eat heartily with
out any bad after effects and | sleep
well at night.
"Tanlac seemed to be just what |
needed to put my system in shape
and it has toned me right up. I'm
der the circumstances l think IL per
fectly naturally for me to say a good
word for it and recommend it to
my friends. "
Commenting on the above state
ment, T w Galyon, State agent for
South Carolina, said: 1T is rarely,
indeed, that men of prominence,
especially men holding high public
Office such as that held by Sheriff
Mangum, voluntarily express their
appreciation of the benefits received
from a medicine. Thousands OF
such convincing endorsements, how
ever, have come to Tanlac.
Among the large number OF
men in public life in the South who
have recently given Tanlac their un:
qualified endorsement for specific aid
to them are Hon Mckenzie Moss,
Judge of the eighth Kentucky judi
cial district; Hon Moses R Glenn,
Kentucky State superintendent OF
printing; John B Gaines, editor and
publisher of the Bowling Green Daily
News; George w Hinton, former sec
retary of the Warren county equity
league; Pres Pegg, Of Newport busi-
ness college, and others.
Tanlac, the master medicine, is
sold by Kingstree Drug Co, King
stree; Mallard Lumber Co.'S store,
Greelyville; price, 81 per bottle,

UNIFORM RANK w. o. w.

Wichita Falls, Texas, July 25.-An
encampment of the members of the
uniform rank, Woodmen of the
World, opened today at Lake Wichita,
a resort near here, with about 2500
Woodmen from all parts of the state
attending and participating in the
drill exercises. Prominent Woodmen
from all the United States were eX
pected to address the Texas gather
ing. In addition to tnose encamped,
about 1000 visitors were expected.
The uniform rank of the Woodmen
of the World is military auxiliary
to the main body 1t contains mem
bers of the various drill teams of
hundreds of lodges over the state.
There was some doubt at one time
whether the encampment would be
held on account of a ruling of the
United States war department declar-
ing the Woodmen uniforms should
be changed on account or their sem
blance TO the regular United States
army uniform. However, the effect
iyeness of this order was postponed
until after the Wichita Falls meeting.

WEATHER CONDITIONS AFFECT
CATTLE AND CROPS IN TEXAS

Corpus Christi, Texas, July %
Probably no more unusual and eli
matte weather conditions, as affect
ing agricultural pursuits, ever ex-
listed in this portion OF southwest
Texas than the prolonged drouth,
which was broken by general rains
in this section during July. During
this time stock raisers were COMPEL
ed to send cattle on summer vaca-
tions to central and northern Texas
pastures.
As a result of this drought varied
conditions in cotton farming are to be
found. On several large farms three
stages of cotton production are found
to exist simultaneously: planting
cultivating ans picking. Cotton will
be from 80 to 12O days late in this
section, agricultural authorities have
predicted. Last year the fourteen
counties affected by the drouth pro-
duced by September l, 10000 bales
of cotton, valued at approximately
$4,000. 900, and other diversified
crops valued at s4,5OO,OOO.
