I've Gained l5 Pounds by Taking Tan lac. and Look So We'll People Hard- ly Recognize Me-" He Says.

"Fve got all the malaria out my system now and haven't had a chill since the very first bottle of Tanlac 1 took," asserted Eugene D. Rouse, who lives at Monto Santo, Augusta, Ga. "I've gained fifteen pounds, too, and look so much better than l did that my friends hardly recognize me.
 q was just filled with malaria and would have the hardest chills any body ever had. 1 got so bad l had to give up and for month l couldn't do lick of work; in fact, l was so weak I couldn't drive my horse. l had such high levers l would become de- lirious. l ached all over and my back hurt me all the time. | got very thin and had so poor an appetite l could hardly eat thing, and what l did eat didn't do me any good. l have taken several bottles of Tanlac and am a well man today.
 My system has been so cleared of malaria, I haven't pain or an ache anywhere about me and l feel good all the time. I've had no more levers and my appetite is splendid. My meals agree with me like I never had a sick day in my life, and Pm just as strong as I ever was and attribute all my good health entirely to Tanlac."

Scientific Discovery Of Value.

The British Medical Journal ar nounces that 6 remarkable scientific discovery is now on trial at the casuaf ty clearing stations in France. The in. ventor |. James Shearer, Sc0tchman Twenty years old, employed as a ser geant in the medical corps. The new discovery succeeds just where X-ray photography fails. It produces pie lures of structures located far below the surface of the outer skin just ut the point where X-ray photography ceased to perform effectively. By means of it, it is possible in broad daylight to obtain detailed pictures of the internal organs and to see at A glance by what gross lesions they may be affected The apparatus works as long as the body is living. and even until molecular death has set in.

Explalns Rock Formation.

"Rock formation, like other physi' cal and chemical phenomena" says Dr. Arthur l.. Day, director of the Geophysical Laboratory, "is the result of certain forces acting upon certain forms of matter. An exact knowledge of rock formation accordingly will de- pend upon the ability to establish def- nitely the characteristic properties of these particular forms of matter and to measure the forces which act in each case. The facts that in nature the individual rock-forming minerals do not occur in great purity, and that the active forces are applied over a great range of conditions and long pe- riods of time, merely cucumber the problem with technical difficulties of considerable magnitude; they do not confuse its analysis"

White of an Eo0.

The white of an egg is made up o1 little cells filled with albumen. By beating the white these cells are rup- tured and oxygen lfrom the air is in. closed, which gives the white and light appearance of beaten eggs. The white of stale egg will not inclose as much oxygen, will not be as light and as easily digested as that of the fresh egg and is, of course. less valuable. The importance of beating the egg in cold. pure air is readily seen.-Exchange.

MEN WANTED

A . result of the war there is an enormous demand in all lines of busi- ness, both public and private, for trained men and women. Leading men of the nation are unanimous in the opinion that 1t is a patriotic duty for men who are not eligible for army service to pursue buSness or techni. cal training and fit themselves for ser. vice elsewhere.
 Young men who are not in the se- lective draft, are wanted in business positions provided they have tho right training. Little Rock and Arkansas business men are begging now for trained help; they need men-great numbers of them-and must have them. It is splendid opportunity for those who will train themselves in bookkeeping, shorthand, and ethsr branches of clerical work.
 MT. George A. Mclean, President of Draughon's Business College of Little Rock, Ark, advises that tho demand for office help has trebled In volume during the last three or four months, and that in August alone, nearly 300 positions were offered the students of his school. A very large majority could not be filled as there was not a sufficient number of trained students available. MT. Mclean strong ly urges a business training and says that wonderful opportunities are now open to the young men and women of Arkansas.
 Those who are looking for an op- portuntty and believe in the Do it now" spirit, should, by all means. communicate with MT. Mclean and learn his plan for assisting young peo- pla to prepare for business life.

Samphire nscd to be cried in the streets of London under the name of "crest ma rine," but apparently present-day cos termongers never sell it.

Dillisk chopped ur smau and stewed in milk thickened with oat' meal, is a splendid dish.

Bees That Are Bandits,

A New Jersey map is accused by his neighbors of keeping species of bees that, instead of honestly making honey from flower and clover bloom, thievish- ly plunder the hives of all the work ing bees in the neighborhood. It is asserted that this man, although he has not kept an honest bee in seven years, regularly sells more honey than any other bee map in the Delaware valley. No doubt these allegations will surprise most people. Tie bee has been commonly looked upon as incor- ruptibly honest and as an unvarying model of industry. Indeed, 1t was fr> m the bee that man first learned that industry and honesty go through this world hand in hand. The man or the bee that won't work is bound to have unhealthy views and improper practices regarding the rights of prop erty. The degrading effects of idle ness have long been observable in man. But it has been thought that the bee Is of higher order.-Exchange.
