thousands of homes, it is pretty good

DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin has
been on the market since 1889, its
use being gradually extended until
now it is generally regarded by drug
gists as the staple family laxative. 1t
is a combination of simple laxative
herbs, free from opiates or narcotic
drugs, gentle in its action and posi-
tive in effect. 1t costs only fifty cents
a bottle and can be purchased in
drug stores everywhere.

well recently that he had tried about
everything without being helped un-

UNCEASING RAIN
COSTS TIMBERMEN.
LARGE FORTUNES
No Rain at All
Listen TO This!

Mississippians who think that they
are experiencing an unprecedented
rainy spell, the equal of which prob
ably is unknown in this section of the
United States, are all wrong.
AS compared with the rainy season
of 81 years ago, the July wet period
is a drought, old-timers in this sec
tion declare.
During the summerf of 1S95-and
there are lot of persons in Forrest
county who distinctly remember that
period-there was constant down
pour for more than 60 days in South
Mississippi, and for while, ten min
utes Of sunshine was a novelty, and
brought every one out of doors to wit
ness.
The rainy period began the first
part of July, 1895, 1t is stated, and
there was no let-up until the first week
in September. While the earth, dur
ing all this time, was like a sponge
on the bottom of the sea, crops were
not damaged as much as one might
expect from such moisture.
This, the twenty-second day of the
rainy season which struck South Mis-
sissippi on July 1, saw as big a down
pour as has occurred at any time
with the exception of possibly two
days, and there is no end in sight yet

itivity again was displayed today by the
three warships of the Allies off Cape
Henry, which are waiting for the at
tempted departure of the big German
submarine Deutschland.
Last night the warships crossed and
recrossed about the entrance of the
capes, placing giant searchlights over
the entrance, and inspecting every
craft that dared to brave the dangers
of storm-tossed sea on such foggy
night.
Today these ships began their north
to-south patrol of the Atlantic. They
are about eight miles out from the
coast, but gradually are working to the
three-mile limit zone.

members of the crew of the submarine
Deutschland were feted by thousands
