Stage Center.
 Paris, May 29, 11:45 a. m.-Two at tacks were made by German troops advancing last night from Corbeaux Wood, on the Verdun front. The French war office report of today says these assaults resulted in failure.
 East of the Mouse the night was comparatively calm, except for heavy artillery action in the vicinity of Fort Vaux.
 Fifteen aerial encounters occurred and two German machines were VI brought down, one of them falling in flames.
 French Artillery In Play.
 The text of the statement follows:
 '"To the south of Rove, in the re- zion of Beuvraignes, French artillery overwhelmed the first line German or ganization.
 "On the left bank of the River Mouse both the French and the Ger man artillery were active last night. y Yesterday evening at o'clock, a German attack advancing from the Corbeaux Woods was completely re- pulsed by our curtain of fire and the fire of our artillery. A second wig orous attack about midnight in the same locality also was driven dack.
 "On the right bank of the river in the region of the Fort of Vaux, there was spirited artillery fighting.
 1In the Lorraine district we have dispersed a strong German reconnoit- ering party in the Forest of Parroy.
 French pilots yesterday delivered fifteen attacks upon German aero planes. Two of the enemy machines were brought down. One fell fam ing the edge of the Argonne For est, near Monthers, and the others came down in the region of An1-F'on- y taine, to the north of Berry-Au-Bac.
 While one of our pilots was mak- ing trial flight, he was attacked in the region to the north of the River Aisne by a German Fokker. The enemy machine fired over a thousand shots at the French aviator, Under this hail of bullets and in spite of the fact that his machine was virtually < cut to pieces by this fire, the French aviator succeeded in getting back to our lines, followed by his adversary Another French machine came for ward and attacked the German. He was not more than thirty yards dis tant and was brought to earth at a point near Bourgogne, to the west of Rheims.
 'On the left bank of the River Mouse cannon mounted on automo- piles brought down two German air machines, the first to the north of Avocourt and the second in the direc- ton of Forges.''

Bulgarian troops crossed the Greek frontier on May 26 and occupied the Greek forts of Rupel, Dragotin and Spatovo. The Greek troops which had garrisoned these forts withdrew on the advance Of the Bulgarians, who claimed permission from the Athens government for their act The Bull earians were said to be led by German officers who explained to the com nanders of the Greek forts that the central powers were merely being &C., corded the same privilege that had been given the allies in permitting them to occupy Saloniki.
 It was reported from Athens yes terdav that feeling was running very high in the Greek capital over the Bull garian invasion. The Herald, the or gan of M. Venizelos, appeared yester- day with a black border and con- tained fiery article from the pen of the former premier.

BAPTIST MINISTER
SAYS TANLAC HAS
RESTORED HEALTH
Always thought Most Patent
Medicines Were Fakes, But Is
Now Convinced That TanIac
Is an Exception.

81 am an ordained Baptist min
lister, and have always been greatly
opposed to patent medicines of any
kind" said Rev Jno. M. Sims, of
Atlanta, few days ago. I'm fact,
I have always regarded the great ma
jority Of them as nothing more Or
less than fakes, but want to say to
you that / believe Tanlac is an ex-
ceDtion to the rule, because I have
never taken anything that helped me
as much as this medicine.
Mrs. Sims had not been very we'll
and on the recommendation Of
friends I bought the first bottle for
her, but when I took it home she re-
fused to take it. I was also very
badly rnu down myself and in need
of a medR'ine of some kind, and as
nv friends had spoken so highly of
Tanlac ] decided to try it myself. I
have only taken two bottles and have
gained ten pounds in weight When
I weighed day before yesterday with
nv overcoat on, I weiehed two hun
dred and fifteen pounds. When J.
weighed this morning on the scales
up the street without my overcoat,
I weighed two hundred and ten
pounds, which is ten pounds more
than l weighed before I began taking
it.
81 suffered principally from nerv-
Gus INDIGESTION and inactive liver.
Nv kidneys also gave me a great deal
of trouble I would lay awake for
hours at night as l was so nervous
I could get no rest or sleep-in fact,
I was so run down I was almost q
nervous wreck | was not myself at
all and was losing weight and
strength rapidly My digestion was
so badly impaired I had to avoid
sweets of all kinds, as much as |
loved them Frequently after eat
ing I would suffer for hours with
heartburn and other forms of indi-
gestiOn.
'Tanlac seems to have corrected
entirely relieved of indigestion and
can now eat anything with impunity.
can even eat honey without suffer-
ing any i'll effects whatsoever.
GAS I told you before, used to
suffer a great deal with my kidneys
and would have to get up at all
hours of the night. / can now go to
bed and get a good nights rest, and
never wake up until morning. L get
up feeling rested and refreshed and
ready for my work.
Eyes, indeed, Tanlac is a onderful
medicine. There is no doubt about
It. I heartily recommend it for
what it has done for me-"
Rev. Sims son was also present at
the time he made this remarkable
statement, and was so favorably i'm
pressed with what his father had to
say regarding Tanlac that he at once
decided to get it for his wife.
Tanlac is sold by leading drug

This is the New Banking System
President Wilson Gave Us.

Editor Jeffersonian:
Dear Sir: The Adrich-Vreeland
law, enacted by Congress in 1908,
provided for issue Of emergency cur
rency to National Banks at an
initial rate Of 5 per cent. interest.
This law, by it's own terms, expired
June, 1914. However, Section 26,
of the new Federal Reserve law,
passed in December, 1913, continued
in force the Northumberland law
until June 1915, and reduced the
rate of interest from 5 per cent. to
per cent.
This law having expired by hmita-
ton last June. no longer does the
government issue money under it's
terms.
The new Federal Reserve notes
provided for in the act of 1913, are
now issued to the twelve Federal
Reserve banks, upon acceptable col
lateral and 40 per cent deposit Of
gold to secure same.
These federal reserve notes. al
though obligations of the govern"
ment, payable on demand in gold, are
issued without any interest charge
therefor.
Section 16, Federal Reserve law
says the banks shall pay for federal
reserve notes "such rate Of interest
as may be established by the Fed
eral Reserve Board
Although federal reserve system
has been in operation almost eigh-
teen months and millions of notes
have been issued, no interest is paid
the government by the banks. No
interest rate having been established
by the Reserve Board.
No loan with maturity of over six
months at time Of re-disount can be
placed as collateral for issue of
Federal reserve notes, as farmers
notes are for a longer time than 6
months, even where made to finance
making of crop; his notes are
therefore Ineligible for re-discount
at any federal reserve bank, hence
National Banks, although authorized
to make farm loans" are. not MAX
ing them for this reason, they can
not re-discount them to secure fed
eral reserve notes.
The Federal Reserve law also au-
thorized the transfer of government
deposits from National Banks to the
twelve Federal Reserve Banks. This
transfer will cause a loss of 2 per
cent. on these deposits, as there is
now no law requiring payment Of
interest by Federal Reserve banks on
government deposits.
Will you tell us why government
money is now issued without any
interest charge therefor; and why
government deposits in Federal Re-
serve Banks do not draw 2 per cent.

Give Whitefly Larvae a Little Oil

A few growers have sprayed
for the fall brood of whitefy. The
whitefy should not be neglected
since it saps the life out of trees
and not only weakens the tree but
impairs the ripening of fruit. The
combined methods of fighting
whitefy are necessary to keep
the pest in control.
j. r. Watson, entomologist to
the University of Florida Expert
ment Station, recommends that
those growers who have not spray
ed do so at once. November is a
little late, but a great deal of pro-
lection may be had even that late.
Several instances Of effective
spraying in early November are
on record.
Oil emulsion or soap solution,
/ pound of soap to or 5 gallons
of water, will be effective. The
spray should be directed to the
under sides of the leaves where
the whitefy larvae vii be found.
The work must be thoro since
each larvae must be hit to be kill
ed.
