SOCIETY TEACHES
NAVY COOKS TO COOK

Many prominent society wo-
men, led by Mrs. Adrian lselin,
have given up social activities in
order to teach sailors how to cook.
Mrs. Iselin, writing in the No
vember issue of Harper's Bszar,
tells how, thru her New York
Cooking School, these women are
training able seamen to prepare
food properly and are rapidly
lessening the shortage of capable
chefs in the navy. Rear Admiral
Usher, u. S. NJ, has cooperated
with Mrs. Iselin and has indorsed
her work.
The men have learned very
quickly. In fact, Admiral Usher
says: Without this aid, it would
have been difficult matter for
us to supply a sufficient number
of competent cooks to the small
vessels in the district. and to the
large german liners which were
recently taken over by the govern
ment. "

AMERICAN FARMER PATRIOTIC
PROVIDES SUPPLIES and MONEY

Few will question the patriotism oi
the American farmer.
If there Is any man in whom the love
Of home, the love Of liberty, and the
love of independence is thoroughly
grounded, It is the American farmer.
Naturally, therefore, he Is the one
man more than any other, who will
stand firmly behind his Government
In making the world safe for Democ-
Ycy.
The farmer is doing, and will con-
tinue to do, all in his power In the
matter Of the production of foods to
support our people at home, our boys
in the trenches and our allies.
But 1t is as necessary to finance lib
erty as It Is to fight for It, or to feed
those who fight.
= Because all OF this 10 true and be-
cause he can afford it on account of
the prices he Is receiving for his prod
ucts, the farmer should be one of the
most eager purchasers of Liberty
Bonds.
He should be willing and glad to
share a part Of his profits in support
of his government in the prosecution
of the war.

DROWNED TRYING
TO SAVE CHILDREN
Bodies Of Mrs. }. C. Russo
and Two Children Found in
Fish Pond Near Their
Home.

South Pittsburg, Oct. 19.
Plunging into the water in an ef-
fort to save the lives of her two
children who had fallen into a
fishpond near their home, Mrs. ].
C. Russell met death by drown
ing Thursday. The accident oc-
cured near the home of Mrs. Rus
sell in Dorans Cove in Jackson
county, Ala, about four miles
from Bridgeport. Both the chill
dren were drowned, one aged IS
months and the other 4 years. 1t
is believed the smallest child fell
into the water and the other in
trying to save it fell in also, and
their cries attracted the. mother,
who got beyond her depth in try
ing to save the children and was
drowned also. A coroner's jury
which meets today will endeavor
to get solution of the mystery
as no motive can be assigned for
the drowning of the children and
the suicide of the mother as she
was in good health and the best of
spirits on the morning of the day.
There were no marks on the bod
les which would lead one to sus-
pect foul play. Mrs. Russell and
her children were left at home
alive by the husband and father.
J. c. Russell, and were not MISS
ed until their return at noon for
dinner. Search was instituted
and after all reasonable places
had been examined it was thought
to examine the fish pond when
the shocking discovery was made.
The Russell family were well
known in Marion county where
Mr.. Russell formerly held a posi-
ton with the t. c., /. & Ry Co.,
first at Inman when the iron
mines were IN operation and later
at South Pittsburg. Later he re-
tired from the employ of the
company and purchased the farm
in Doran's Cove where the un-
fortunate tragedy occurred.

FR0SIS lkFLICT DAMAGE
ON LATE CORN

It now develops that the recent
frosts did considerable damage to
late corn, and in some cases entire
fields were ruined. Corn has
been very slow in ripening this
year and hence even in large
fields there were spots where it
had delayed to ripen thoroly be-
fore the frost damaged it. What
effect this will have on the pro.
duction in this county is hard to
tell, but at any rate farmers are
cutting such fields for fodder and
housing it before the rains as fod-
der from frosted corn when wet
is worthless.

MANAGER KADELL, ,KREicHFlELD
SHOWS IN AUTO WRECK

Mr.. Kadell and wife, of Illinois,
were in an auto wreck Sunday
afternoon on the mountain road
near here. The brake on their
Ford machine gave way and the
emergency being already out of
commission the car was turned
loose on the road about a mile and
a half up the ascent. Mr.. Ka-
dell called on his wife to jump
and Immediately steered the car
into the bank. The car climbed
the bank but fortunately stopped
before turning over. The damage
was mostly confined to broken
radius rods. A mechanic was
summoned from the Pryor garage
and Monday morning Mr.. and
Mrs. Kadell resumed their jour
ney. They were en- route to
Bridgeport, Ala, where their
show has a weeks engagement.
They and their company of play
ers travel in their special railway
car, which is 80-feet in length
and perhaps the longest car in
the world. 1t is so long that the
railway company refused to haul
it to Tracy City, claiming it would
be dangerous to do so on account
of the sharp curves in the road
on the Tracy Branch.

CUMBERLAND FARMERS TO
COMBAT HOG CHOLERA

The farmers of Cumberland
county are preparing to combat
hog cholera. and meetings are to
be held over the county to teach
methods of fighting the disease.
In this county, Marion, the hog
crop is now almost a negligible
quantity, owing to the inroads of
cholera. The people have fought
the disease vigorously and since
inocculation has been taken up,
it seems that the disease is less
aggressive. Hundreds of dollars
worth of hoQs have died in the
past four years and hog raisers
have become pretty we'll discour-
aged. The policy of the admins
tration, as manifested by Mr..
Hoover, is to keep the price of
pork up instead of fixing a lower
price as has been done in the case
of wheat and other commodities,
and this must inevitably result in
increased hog production as the
high price will be an incentive.
The fancy prices for grain is also
another factor that has discour-
aged hog grower from further eff
fort, and it has made its influence
felt even to the village pen.

# KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache is sign you have
been eating too much
meat.

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region it
generally means you have been eating
too much meat, says Well-knoWn au-
thority. Meat forms uric acid which
overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter it from the blood and they
become sort of paralyzed and loggy
When your kidneys get sluggish and
clog you must relieve them, like yor
relieve your bowels; removing all the
bodys urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy spells
your stomach sours, tongue is coated
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy
full of sediment, channels often gel
sore, water scalds and you are obliged
to seek relief two or three times dur
ing the night.
Either consult good, reliable physi
clan at once or get from your phar.
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts
take tablespoonful in a glass Of wa
ter before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize
acids in the urine SO it no longer ir
ritates, thus ending bladder weakness
Jad Salts is a life saver for regular
meat eaters. 1t is inexpensive, can
not injure and makes delightful, eff
fervescent lithia water drink.

POTATO PRICES DOWN.
Federal Food Investigators Find Ric,
Prices Going Up.

Chicago-While food investigators
were endeavoring to verify rumors
that 100000 bushels of potatoes are
in storage at Blue Island, a suburb,
E. Percy Miller, commission mer-
chant, admitted that he controls one
million bushels in different sections
of the country. His total holdings,
he estimated at approximately 1900
cars.
Mr.. Miller added that he is prob
ably the largest holder of potatoes
in the country and tn TAFT is not I'M
usual for him to control so many. He
said he is not in control of the pota-
to market and he denied there was a
corner in the vegetable. No potatoes
have been destroyed wilfully to create
a shortage, according to Mr. Miller
but many that have been frozen or
otherwise spoiled while in storage
have been destroyed.

WHY "ANURIC" is AN
INSURANCE AGAINST
SUDDEN DEATH.

Before an insurance company will take
n risk on your life the examining physi-
clan will test the urine and report whether
you are good risk. When your kidneys
get sluggish and clog, you suffer from
backache, sick headache, dizzy spells,
or the twinges and pains of lumbago,
rheumatism and govt. The urine is
otter cloudy, full of sediment; channels
often get sore and sleep is disturbed
two OF three times a night. This is the
time you should consult some physician
of wide experence-suc as DR.. Pierce
of the lnvalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute, Buffalo, N. Y. Send him
10 cents for sample package of his new
discovery, "Anuric." Write him your
symptoms and send a sample of urine
for test. Experience has taught DR..
Pierce that "Anuric" is the most power
full agent in dissolving uric acid, as hot
water melts sugar; besides being abso-
lutely harmless it is endowed with other
properties, for it preserves the kidneys
in a healthy condition by thoroughly
cleansing them. Being so many times
more active than lithia, it clears the
heart valves of any sandy substances
which may clog them and checks the
degeneration of the blood vessels, as we'll
as regulating blood pressure. "Anuric"
is regular insurance and life-saver for
all big meat eaters and those who deposit
lime-salts in their joints. Ask the drug
gst for "Anuric" put up by DR.. Pierce,
in 50-cent packages.

SPECIAL SESSION APRIL is.
Democrats Control New Senate-To
Await ANY Crisis,

Washington.-Lead of both par
ties in congress greeted with approx
al President Wilson's call for spe-
cial session on April 1G.
There has been feeling evident
that congress should be in Washing
ton when the president takes any step
further in the German situation.
The length of the special session,
the legislation it will enact and the
debates that may mark its progress
will depend largely on three factors
just what legislation the president
expects, what results from the arming
of American merchant ships and the
way the new house Of representatives
conducts itself with it's evenly-bal
anced membership.
The democrats control the new sen
ate by II votes, and despite its bit.
ter debates on international prob.
lens, and its failure to pass the arm.
ed neutrality bill it can be safely
counted upon to stand behind the
president in almost anything he asks
in handling the German situation.

LISTEN TO THIS!
SAYS CORNS LIFT
RIGHT OUT NOW


You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because few
drops of freezone applied directly on a
tender, aching corn or callus, stops
soreness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens so it can be
lifted out, root and all, without pain
A small bottle of freezone cost very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft
corn or callus. This should be tried
as it is inexpensive and is said not tc
irritate the surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house. 1t is
fine stuff and acts like charm every
time.
