Address Soldier Letters Correctly.
Attention to the following facts will
avoid much confusion and delay in the
delivery of letters to the Tennessee
soldiers. Recent changes IN the dit
ferent units has caused some con-
fusion and considerable delay has been
reported by the authorities in deliver
ing mail to the boys:
The headquarters company OF the
First Tennessee has retained that
name.
The sanitary detachment and the
supply company also retain the same
name as they did in the First Tennes-
see
Companies A and B of the former
First Tennessee have been consolidate
ed and have become Battery A.
Companies and D have become
Battery B.
Companies E and F have become
Battery C.
Companies G and H have become
Battery d.
Companies I and X have become
Battery E.
Companies L and M have become
Battery F.
The mail for all battery or company
officers should be marked with the
battery or company to which they be-
long. Simply to direct mail intended
for field and staff officers to the 10th
field artillery will be sufficient.

The advantages of using japanese
clover on poor spots on the farm where
red clover might possibly be desired
but would not grow, is being shown by

SENSATIONAL SUIT TO
RECOVER LOST DAUGHTER

Columbia. Feb. 23-A beautiful wo-
man who has been looking for her
child during the past II years insti-
tuted proceedings in Columbia today
for the recovery of her l2-year-old
daughter. The mothers home is Ill
Houston, Texas. and she has come all
the way from there to bring the suit.
The child was born in Chattanooga,
Tenn. The mother shortly thereafte:
went to Atlanta, where the BABY was
taken away from her, according to her
statement, and placed in home.
She later married her second hus-
band, after which she went to Tex
as, and then she and her husband.
according to her statement, spent a
number of years in Mexico in search
of the child, which has just been To-
Gated in Columbia. 1t is one of the
most sensational habeas corpus pro-
ceedings instituted in this State IN re
cent years.
Mrs. Mildred vandiver. proprietress.
of one of the fashionable hotels OF
Houston. Texas, employed Solicitor
Cobb. of this circuit. and former Gov
ernor Blease to bring the PROCEEDINGS
for the possession of the child, which
she claims to be her daughter.
Mrs Vandiver's petition, as prepar-
ed by her attorneys. recites that the
child was CORN in 1905. At that time,
she says, she was living in Chatfa-
nooga, Tenn, as the wife of R. N.
Milkey. She was only Is years of
age. She says in her petition tna;
she afterwards became BADLY involT-
ed financially" and that, while she
was living in Atlanta, the child was
taken from her and put into nome,
from which it was adopted by Mr.. and
Mrs. ]. o. Leach. who now reside IN
this city. Detectives have been coz
tinuously employed says Mrs. Wan
diver, but the search was without e
feet. Finally, she says. she located
her daughter in Columbia and came
here and instituted legal proceedings
to regain possession of her. The
whole matter will come up before
Circuit Judge DeVore her on March
Mr. and Mrs. Leach live in Lincoln
street. They have been living here
about six years and have no children
of their own. Mr. Leach is foreman
of the machine shop of the Columbia

WHY NOT "PAINT, LIGHTS
AND WATERWGRkS" NOW!

Paint, lights and waterworks-
this is the year of ali years to put
them in If you don't do it now, you
may look back to this winter in fu-
ture years and say, why didn't 1
provide these comforts for my family,
my loved ones, back there when cot
ton was twenty cents, and everything
else bringing good prices"
Lumber is getting higher all the
time, and you need paint to save it,
to say nothing of the increased beau
ty you get for your home.
A good sy TN of waterworks will
pay for itself in a very few years in
time saved, to say nothing of the in
creased comfort of the family.
!And now almost for the first time
good lighting systems are available
for farm homes at a reasonable cost.
There will never be better time to
put in paint, light and waterworks.
You expect to have them sometime;
and if you can possibly spare the
money, why not get them now and
enjoy them before you and your wife
GEL older?-The Progressive Farmer.

lac had changed her condition from
that of almost an invalid to healthy,
strong, happy woman. Mrs Wooten's
statement follows:
II suffered from a complete physi-
cal break down and the after effects
of a long drawn out spell of malaria.
l was very weak-so weak that l
was in bed at least half of every day,
and I did not try to do any of my

wonder if 1 ever would get we'll, Or

tell by the way my folks talked that
they had about lost hope Of me ever
getting we'll again.
Then somebody told me to try
Tanlac, and began taking it. l took
six bottles and l have gained at least
twenty pounds in weight. I sure was
skin and bones when 1 began taking
Tanlac, but I am heavy enough now
and l feel like a new person.
"Tanlac did me great deal more
good than all the other medicines I
took put together, and I certainly
did take lot of medicine before
took Tanlac. The Tanlac gave me a
good appetite almost from the start
and soon | began to improve right
along in health and strength, and now

my ironing and l am strong and

derstand how much Tanlac did for me
unless they had seen me before I
took it. and 1 had been almost an in

Tanlac and then I only had to take
six bottles to get my strength back.
II certainly can give Tanlac the
highest praise, because it changed me
