SUITS TURNED" IN HUNGARY
Tallors Trick Now Saves the Labor
and Expense of a New
Garment.

Budapest, Hungary.-It is a badge
Of patriotism in Hungary nowadays to
wear a coat with the side pocket on
the right-hand side, revealing that the
garment has been turned so as to make
1t presentable, thus saving the labor
and expense Of II new suit. In fash
iOnable restaurants and hotels n
sees many prominent people thus at
tired.
Nobody, not even a war millionaire,
can afford many new suits nowadays,
and the tailors are reluctant to make
clothes even at their own price, which
is now about 800, cash In advance, for
a suit which would cost about $50
in peace time. The tailor generally
tries to dlssuade a wOuld-be customer
from ordering a new suit, at the same
time offering to turf his old suit and
make 1t look like new for $40 or $16.

RIVER NAVIGATION TO BOOM
Immense Tonnage May Be Moved on
Mississippi From New Orleans
70 ST. Paul.

Memphis, Tenn.-One company is be-
ing organized with a capital stock Of
2, 100000 for the purpose Of develop
ing navigation on the Mississippi river,
and there are indications that other
corporations with the same object will
be organized within the next few
months. River men believe that be-
cause Of the ~congested condition Of
railroads river navigation will come
into it's own. There is immense ton
mage that might be moved by water all
the way from New Orleans to st. Paul
and along the tributaries OF the Mis-
sissippl, including the Ohio river and
the Missouri river.

ONLY WEIGHED 60 POUNDS
After Taking Tanlao Has Gained
T%hlrty-hVe Pounds and Expects

band Well and Happy.

"About six weeks ago I left my
home on our farm near Acworth, Ca
to come to my sisters home here in
Atlanta, and 1 left with only a
shadow Of hope Of ever returning
alive.
IL left Acworth in q comfortable
automobile, propped up on pillows,
coming through the country. 1 had
almost as much medicine as baggage
"a big box full Of all kinds that had
been prescribed for me. 1 reached
here very weak and with scarcely
enough strength to walk to the door.
This trouble from which / had suf-
fered so long and which I was told
was pellagra, had reduced me to al
most a shadow, as 1 only weighed
sixty pounds.
my brother-in-law, Mr.. Battle,
said, WELL, you have tried everything
else with no relief, now 1 want you
to lay aside your drug shop" and
take Tanlac.' Well, he got it for me
and 1 started on my first bottle that
day.
"When 1 had taken about half the
first bottle I began to feel stronger
and encouraged. 1 continued to take
It and it is nothing short of marvel
Gus how 1 improved day by day. My
appetite returned and my food
seemed to nourish me and agree with
me. My skin and complexion began
clearing and 1 improved in every way
possible until 1 am now a well woman,
and when 1 say well l mean absolutely
what 1 say. 1 want to tell the whole
world that l thank God for Tanlac.

jectedly away after being told she had
no chance.
Because 1 want to do something
quick for my country" she answered.
"Td have gone 70 scrub floors. Do you
know II they pay q stenogrOpher any
thing2 Yes, well, I'd have gone for
nothing"
Il. There's heart-burning and dlsap-
pointment among those left behind In
the hospitals Of the city. One nurse,
a Canadian, registered as a French
army nurse as we'll as with the Ameri-
Gun Red Cross, insisted that she be al
lowed to 60, since she had served a
year in the small hospitals of France
and knew the game.
THAT'S just why you must stay
here" answered the head nurse to
whom she applied. "You have had
your chance and now you'll have to let
someone else have O try at 1t. 1t
wouldn't be fair to give 1t twice to
you"
The Canadian gave up with a bad
grace, but finally cOnsOled herself with
the thought that these early units
would o be followed by others, and
that II the war lasts as long as now
seems probable those who went late
would be less near the breaking point
when peace came.
When mobilization orders went out
Of Washington last month for seven
hospital units to proceed as soon as
possible to France, the first to get
away was the one from Cleveland.
"That's because we did that mobili.
cation stunt In Philadelphia last year."
said one Of the young khaki-clad doc
tors before he sailed. "We thought at
the time the practice idea was all flub-
dub, but we're tickled to death now.
We were told that II we could mobilize
in ten days we could get the first ship.
We did 1t In seven"
Some of C%leveland's most eminent
doctors threw up practices worth
scores of thousands to go with their
unit on a majors pay Of three thou
sand a year. DR.. George w. Grille, its
director, will follow later, but his part
ner, Doctor Lower, went along, as well
as Doctor Hoover, head Of the medical
staff of Lakeside hospital. Out of the
units hundred and fifty civilians, 70
are college boys, some Of them within
a month Of their diplomas. Just be-
fore the ship sailed news came that
the organization was to be received
with celebrations on the other side.
1--WE can't march without music"
said the director, and the civilian force
was hastily canvassed for musical tai
ent. Ten minutes before the gang
plank was raised three snare drums
and a bundle of flies were hurried
aboard, and the first division Of the
American army in Europe expects to
parade to the tune of yankee Doodle"
past Buckingham palace or down the
Champs Elysees or wherever a CRATE

KIDNEY REMEDY
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

There is no medicine which we handle
that gives such good results as your
Swamp-Root. Many of our customers
have informed us at different times that
they have derived great benefit from its
use.
There was one case in particular which
attracted a great deal of attention in this
neighborhood early last Spring, as the
gentleman's life was despaired of and two
doctors treating him for liver and kidney
trouble were unable to give him any re-
lief. Finally a specialist from st. Louis
was called in but failed to do him any
good. l at last induced him to try your
Swamp-Root and after taking it for three
months, he was attending to his business
as usual and is now entirely well. This
case has been the means Of creating an
increased demand for your Swamp-Root
with US.
Very truly yours,

Eighty Per Cent Mail Routes.

One of the essential requirements of
the federal road authorities is that a
road upon which federal aid is ex-
pended must have mail route mile
age or at least 80 per cent, either a
star route or R. F. D. route. That is
the reason for the delay in securing
the approval of the federal road au-
thorities for the Mile Laos lake road
and also the Princeton-Zi Zimmerman
road.
Steps are being taken to have a
mail route extended from Onamia to
Page, and when that is accomplished
there will be no trouble in securing
the approval of the federal authori-
ties for that road. Then bids can be
advertised for and contracts let with
out further delay But it is altogether
probable that active work can not be
commenced before next spring, as the
road building season is now we'll adj
vanced this year. In the meantime
That important highway should be
kept in good condition.
There must be Encouragement of
the mail route running north from
Zimmerman on the state road. The
route must be extended further north
in order to furnish the required mail
route mileage to secure the federal
aid. The change can be effected with

sooner it is done the better, for at

Prominent Road Men Here.


Yesterday State Commissioner of
Highways Charles M. Babcock, Chief
State Highway Engineer J. H. Mullen,
and United States District Engineer
Erwin O. Hathaway visited Princeton
and Zimmerman in connection with
the proposed permanent improve
ment Of the State road be-
tween the two villages. The par
ty, accompanied by R. C. Dunn,
went over the road to ascertain the
exact mileage covered by mail routes.
There must be an additional 11a miles
of mail route before the federal au-
thorities will extend federal aid.
The district of which Mr.. Hathaway
is chief engineer comprises all of the
states Of Wisconsin, Minnesota and
the two Dakotas. His headquarters
are located in the post office building,
Minneapolis. Mr.. Hathaway is an ex-
ceedingly pleasant and courteous gen.
tleman, and seems anxious and willing
to lend every assistance in his power
to better road conditions in Mime
sofa. There will be no sighting of
road work over which he has any con-
troll. Both Mr.. Babcock and Mr.. Null
len regard Mr.. Hathaway very highly
and feel certain that they can work in
harmony with him.
