ANTHRAX SERUM SAVES
VALUABLE ANIMALS

Pearl River, N. Y, July 26, 1917.
Mr.. H. C. Fondren, Parish Agent,
Jennings, Louisiana.
Dear Mr.. Fondren: / was very
pleased to learn from our DR.. Geb-
hard of the good results you are hav-
ing with the simultaneous treatment
for the prevention Of anthrax. We
have many similar reports at hand
and it is gratifying to learn that out
breaks of this dreadful disease are
now readily checked with this treat
ment.
Moreover, it might be of interest
to you to learn that during recent
trip to the South, I collected about
twelve strains Of virulent anthrax bac.
I'LL from Southern Louisiana and
Texas which we are now using for
the injection Of our serum producing
horses and we are also endeavoring
to prepare the vaccine from these par
ticular strains. This would naturally
yield more effective product for the
disease in those localities. Besides,
it is also our intention to establish
the maximum amount of vaccine which
animals will safely tolerate, and our
investigations already show that in
stead Of the two million spores which
are now contained in single dose OF
the vaccine we might be able to in
crease it to a considerably higher
number, which naturally would afford
the animals proportionateiy greater
protection.
}, Again expressing my appreciation
for this report and assuring you OF
our willingness to give you at all times
, any assistance we nay be able to
along the line Of suggestions, we are,
very Truly yours,

To Live Long!

A recipe given BY famous physician
for long life was: keep the kidneys in
good order! Try to eliminate thru the
skin and intaetines the poisons that other
wise clog the kidneys. Avoid eating meat
a. much az possible; avoid too much salt,
alcohol, tea Try milk and vegetable
diet. Drink plenty Of water, and exercise
30 you sweat-the skin helps to eliminate
the toxic poisons and uric acid"
For those past middle life, for those
easily recognized symptoms Of inflamma-
ton, as backache, scalding water, or
if uric acid in the blood has caused rheu-
matim, rusty" joints, stiffness, get
Anuric at the drug store. This is .
wonderful eliminator of uric acid and was
discovered by DR.. Pierce of lnvaids
Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y. If your druggist
does not keep it send 10 cents to Dr.:
Pierce for trial package and you will find
that it is thirty-seven times more potent
than ithia and that it dissolves uric acid
as hot water does sugar. e

Threats of future outrages upon pub

nation"
The opening of Parliament, always
picturesque, was shorn of much of it's
color and pomp. The peers wore none
of the customary robes and regalia.
The King wore the uniform OF an ad-
miral, and all the lords and members
OF the House of Commons who are
entitled to wear either army khaki or
the navy blue did So There were
also other innovations in keeping with
the time Of war. The Kings escort
consisted of officers of the overseas
fighting force. The Kings gallery in
the House of Lords was set apart for
wounded soldiers.
For the first time in the history of
Parliament the Importance of the for
eign press was recognized by the al
lotment OF seats in the press gallery

expressed what has proved to be the
sentiment of the vast majority Of Ger

at that time that the possibility OF
war was remote, she discussed that
possibility freely. IF it should be
war; she said. Il am an American

be broken but it. is America l would
choose in my heart. America is my
home. 1t is my home because l love
America. / can pro-e my love for
America better than those who were

that Madame Schumann-Heink has a
son, brother and a brother-inlaw
