Older But STRONGER

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
strength-building and blood-nourishing
properties of Scott's Emulsion which isa
food, tonic and a medicine to keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol In Scott's.

ERROR IN THE BILL BRINGS
ABOUT THE UNIQUE SITUA-
TON.

The bill passed a. the last session of
the legislature and introduced by Col.
j. z. Dart, representative from Glynn,
providing for graduated increases in
pensions annually until 1920, when
all pensions. as it was thought. would
be brought up to basis of 800 year.
will have to be amended and corrected
at the next session.
Representative John Dorsey of Cobb
county. has discovered the fact that
one class of pensioners was entirely
eliminated. The disabled and invalid
pensioners will get no increase this
year, though all other classes will.
When Mr.. Dorsey gave his construc-
ton of the law to Pension Commission.
er Lindsey and the terms of the bill
were more carefully gone into, Judge
Lindsey agreed with Mr. Dorsey. A
conference was called of the governor.
Mr. Dorsey, Mr.. Lindsey and Attorney
General Clifford Walker and once
again the bill was put through an an
alysis with the conclusion that Mr..
Dorsey seems to have properly con
strued it. However, it has been passed
on to Attorney General Walker for fur
Their study and an opinion. In order
to relieve any later trouble, however,
Mr.. Dorsey will introduce an amend
ment to the present bill in the June
session this year, making the proper
correction, and ask that it be passed
Immediately and made effective for
1916.
Col. j. E. Dart, when asked about
the bill, said he would make an effort
in June to amend the law so as to
make all increases operative this year

TROOP MOVEMENT LEAVES ROAD SHY
 OF ROLLING STOCK

New Haven, June 28.-The following statement was issued from, the offices of the New York, New Haven & Hart ford railroad today:
 ''The heavy movements of troops from Massa oh usetts, Rhode Island Connecticut and New York has taxed to the utmost the coach and sleeping car equipment of the New Haven rail- road
 ''It is essential that the soldiers be moved to the Mexican border with every comfort that it is possible to furnish, and the New Haven railroad is making every effort to do this.
 "A large number of coaches and sleeping cars have been taken from the regular service and given over to the troop trains and this has created a shortage of equipment which will be particularly felt during the heavy movement of business during the Fourth of July holidays

Headquarters of the Italian Army, June 28.-Adame1lo. which Virgil crowned king of the Italian Alps" is the most elevated spot in the world where war has ever Teen waged.
 Through the courtesy of the Italian General S:*s if. which is desirOus that the wo. Id outside of Italy should know the i1a. ds hips of this unpre cedenled camDaicn the correspondent of The Associated lress was tho first civilian allowed 10 witness the fighting on this colossal mountain, which is Il, 800 feet kish and GOV cred vita eternal snows.
 The correspondent SEW the noun tsin swarrning with thousands of white-clad Alpine soldiers singing, alert, eager, crossing glaciers. chal- longing avalanches, charging the enc my with fixed bayonets-a1l above the clouds.
 There the correspondent witnessed the action of heavy artillery, a bat tery of which fired from the highest point in the world where artillery had ever been placed or from which it had ever been fired. It seemed almost a miracle that such big guns could have been transported in two months of hard labor from a distance of fifteen miles in one of the valleys below. Over two hundred men had been required for the dragging of a single one of the pieces, and at one stage of the work an avalanche had swooped down from the mountain sides and swallowed up the cannon and devoured forty of the men.
 The professional mountain climber never attempted to reach the top of Adamello, but in summer the view of the surrounding Alps with Mount 1slanc, the Jungfrau, and Monte Rosa | in the distance is considered the best 1 in Europe. Winter and summer, the 1 fr1 iS fbot 1 prevail only in the Arctic regions. | There kuslrians and Italians meet in silenA death grip, their deaths and their deeds all but unrecorded save in dry army annals, given but a brief line in the terse bulletins of General Cadorna.
 While the Austrian and Italian can non rumb1ed 1azily, exchanging rude | courteste% or seeking to dislodge ava lanches to better destroy and hamper the enemy, awakening echoes that 1eaped from dozens of miles up and
 down the abrupt peaks, the genial
 Italian colonel accompanying the cor
 respondent remarked that in no other
 way had such fighting ever been, that neither the armies of Hannibal, nor Caesar, nor Napoleon ever dared en-
 gage in such work, that their armies, which did go over mountains not half the height were hardly larger than a regiment of Alpine troops as to-day
 orga nized, that above all they did not winter in the mountains nor deal with
 heavy artillery, nor drag up to these fastnesses pound by pound, plank by plank, piece by piece, their food, their supplies. and the guns and ammuni-
 ton.
 These conditions are not limited tc the Adamello region, but repeat them
 selves on two-thirds of the Italian front or over a line of 275 miles ot Imountain chains going from the Swiss
 frontier down to the banks of the 1son-
 70 river from which can be seen the l "bitter'' blue of the AdriatiC, as the
