ton has been presented TO Captain

ia, urging him 10 take charge of the
movement and reorganize the com
pany and take the Captaincy of the
same. Captain Morris has the ques
tion under advisement and has been
in correspondence win Congressman
Lee, who is also interested in seeing
that Marietta receives some of the
benefits and advantages provided for
in the new army bill Mr.. Lee has
sent Mr. Morris a copy of the bill
which will become law within the
next few days.
The law provides pay for the of.
f1cers and men as follows: Captain
$4,000 per year, First Lieutenant
$4,000, Second Lieutenant $4,000,
and for the enlisted men from about
$4,000 to $1,000 per year provided

Representative in Congress from tn.
several states and gradually increas-
ed at a rate not less than 80 per cent
until within five years the number
will be 500 TO each representative in

$4,000 men in Georgia the first year
and 1900 at the end of five years.
There are number of young men
in Marietta who have had several
years military training in the old
company and at other places which
would be of great assistance in start
ing and making fine new company.

H. W. MILLER DIDN'T HAVE USE
OF RIGHT ARM FOR YEARS
GAINS Is POUNDS ON TANLAC.

Il am 10 years old and hadn't
been able to strike lick of work for

this Tanlac medicine" said Mr.. H.
w. Miner, at Jacobs Pharmacy, Sat

rible spell of typhoid fever, ana
since that time | hadn't been able to
use my right arm to do any good
1t felt weak and numb and had no
strength in ii, but ! didn't get Tan
lac for this trouble, as | had no idea
| would ever be able to use it again
Il bought it for kidney trouble.

Well, it relieved me of these troubles
alright, but, strange to say, it help.
ed my arm, too. Yes, sir, it has ac-
tually made my arm so much better
that | can now do lot of work
something | hadn't been able to do
in all these years. | don't know
how to account for it, but that's
what actually happened, and all my
neighbors who have known me for
years will tell you the same thing.
Going back to my other trouble, |
suffered great deal from my back
and joints, and was so nervous all
the time ! couldn't sleep much.
sometimes | would get so nervous
and strung-up that the least noise
would almost make me jump out o.
bed before | could control myself.
My Stomach was all out OF shape
too, and | couldn't eat to do any
good. NoThlnS seemed to taste right
and / got so finally | would have
vomiting spells after trying to eat
TO tell you the truth i was in
mighty bad fix and was Just getting
weaker and weaker all the time. /
don't feel that way now, and after
taking only three bottles of this
Tanlac, | have gained Ii pounds in
weight, besides my stomach feels just
like ! had had a new one put in,
and eat and sleep just like a school
boy The rheumatic pains are all
gone, and ! am feeling better ana
stronger in every way.
1T has helped my wife too. She is
now on her second bottle, and it is
doing her more good than anything
she has tried in years. She was in
almost as bad a fix as | was and it
has relieved her of ailments she has
had for a long time. Both of us
think there is nothing too good to
say about Tanlac, and | can under
stand why everybody is talking about

Nearly Vanished.

A Once Thriving Industry That Has
Nearly Vanished.
At the outbreak Of the American Rev
olution and for period of seventy five
years following the conclusion of that
struggle whaling was the most impor
tant branch of the American fisheries.
From 500 to 100 vessels sought whales
in all the oceans and seas OF the world,
and in one year New Bedford alone
sent out 300 vessels, whose cargoes OF
bone and oil were the basis Of the in
dustrial life Of the city.
The pursuit Of sperm whales reached
its climax in 1887, when oil valued at
nearly S4.5O0O0O was brought in, most
" from the south Pacific. The height
of the industry was In 1846, when TO-
coo persons derived their support from
whales and 720 vessels, valued at $21.-
100000, were engaged.
For more than fifty years the fishery
has been declining, and in numerous
ports that once derived most Of their
wealth from the industry there have
for long time existed only memories
Of former greatness. For number Of
years the>sperm. right and bow head
whales that supported the fishery in
early years have been very scarce and
their pursuit has been improbable.
and the present importance Of the
whale fishery, amounting in value to
less than 2 per cent Of the American
fisheries. depends on the taking from
shore stations Of species Of whales that
formerly were for the most part neg
lected.
The glory of the whale fishery has
departed forever, and the commercial
If not the biological extinction of all
kinds Of whales is proceeding rapidly,
