The PRETTY FEET OF GIRLS
TAKE UP ALL HIS time
Cinderellas Rush to Win $1,000 Of
fered the Red Cross. He Is
Regretful Now.

DALLAS, Texas.-Finance Com
missioner Doran was so bitterly
against the latest styles in women's
shoes that he allowed himself to be-
lleve there wasn't a girl in Dallas with
a perfect foot. He believed it so
strong that he offered to give 81, 900
to the Red Cross if any girl in the
city would show him perfect foot.
Now he is sorry. Not that he hates
to fork over the $1,000, but because
all his official duties have to be neg
lected while he inspects fairy feet.
Commissioner Doran had not ex-
pected such an army Of modern Gin
derellas when he made that offer, but
his announcement had not been made
three hours when the girls began
f1ocking to his Office and offering to
show him the perfect foot he sought
At first he said it was all a joke, but
the girls would not have it. They had
the feet and were determined that
the Red Cross should have the $1,000.
The result to date is that Commits
sioner Doran has found an even hun
dred Cinderellas in Dallas and more
are coming.

AND FEEL FRESH AS
A DAISY-TRY THIS!
Says glass of hot water with
phosphate before breakfast
washes out poisons.

To see the tinge of healthy bloom
In your face, to see your skin get
clearer and clearer, to wake up with
out a headache, backache, coated
tongue or a nasty breath, in fact to
feel your best, day in and day. out, just
try 1nside-bathtng every morning for
one week.
Before breakfast each dayy drink a
glass OF real hot water with teaspoon
full of limestone phosphate in it as a
harmless means of washing from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible waste,
sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing,
sweetening- and purifying he~,entire

food into the stomach. Thexaction of
hot. water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach is wonderfully in
migrating. 1t cleans out all the sour
lamentations, gases and acidity and
gives one splendid appetite for break
fast
A quarter pound of limestone phos"
plate will cost very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to demonstrate
that just as soap and hot water
cleanses, sweetens and freshens the
skin, so hot water and limestone phos-
plate act on the blood and internal or
gans. Those who are subject to con-
stipation, bilious attacks, acid stomach,
rheumatic twinges, also those whose
skin is sallow and complexion pallid.
are assured that one week of inside
bathing will have them both looking
and feeling better in every way.

rAGE EIIsHI.
BEGIN NEXT MONTH
TO SHIFT WORKMEN
FOUR MILLION WILL BE TRANS
FERRED FROM NON-ESSEN-
TIAL JOBS AUGUST 1ST.

Federal transfer of 100000
workmen from non-essential to war
work will begin on August /, under
the general supervision of the feder-
al department of labor. After that
date the government hopes that en-
ployment advertisements will disap-
pear from newspapers and periodi-
Gals and that all movements of labor
will be directed by the central labor
recruiting service, which will open
and maintain offices in every city in
the country. 1t is planned to carry
through the mobilization of workmen
with as little inconvenience as posi-
BILE. But, with or without conven-
fence, war industries must have men
to stabilize and to increase the pro-
duction of war materials and the gov
eminent is determined that the plants
shall be supplied with all the men
needed.
Aim to Avoid CONSUMPTION.
The government has found that
labor is Influenced greatly by loca,
conditions and that money alone can
not bring men to leave friends and
homesteads. For this reason the la
Dor department will seek first to car.
ry the message of the nations great
need to the workmen of America
through the labor recruiting bureaus
Failure to obtain the registration OF
all men needed for the special work
which must be done may result in g
move to raise the draft age, which
would at once obtain the registration
of the workmen sought for war work
And under the Consumption act il
would be possible to bring about E
condition in the labor market which
does not now exist.

HOW TO DESTROY
RED COTTON SPIDER
STATE ENTOMOLOGISTS TELLS
HOW THE PEST CAN BEST
BE DESTROYED.

ATLANTA, Ga.-Every year the
red spider attacks cotton and other
crops during the hot, dry weather of
July and August, and may do consid-
cradle damage.
The red spider is a small eight
legged mite and works mainly under
the leaves, sucking the sap, causing
the leaves to turn red. Later they
turn brown, dry up and drop off.
In hot, dry weather the eggs of the
cotton red spider are laid more rap
idly and there may be Is or II gen.
erations during the season.
The state board of entomology has
conducted number of experiments
and worked out the life history of
the red spider. A copy of the bulle-
tin on this subject may be secured
by writing to A. c. Lewis, state en-
tomologist, Atlanta.
The red spider NAV be controll-
ed by spraying cotton with one
of the following preparations:
Potassium sulphide, one ounce
to two gallons of water; or
tive per cent. solution of kerosene
emulsion; or a two per cent. lime
sulphur solution. The leaves should
be covered thoroughly, especially the
under side where most of the insects
are. In order to kill all of the eggs
there should be two sprayings made
seven days apart.
AS spraying is a difficult task, it
is better to watch the cotton closely
and pull up and destroy all of the
first infested plants. To prevent the
insect from spreading, sometimes a
strip of cotton ten feet wide is pull
ed up around the infested area and
the land plowed. The red spider can
not crawl over well pulverized land.
Prevention is the best method. In
the fall or winter the weeds upon
which the red spider lives should be
destroyed. These weeds are poke
weed, gimpson weed, golden rod,
Wild blackberry and cultivated VIC
lets. To destroy these weeds spray
them with sodium arsenate, at the
rate of one pound to 20 gallons of
water. Remember this is a poison
and livestock should not be allowed
to Craze upon the treated weeds. The
cultivated violets if not DESTROYED
should be thoroughly sprayed two or
three times with one of the solutions
mentioned above.

GEORGIA HEN DISTINGUISHES
SELF LAYING PATRIOTIC EGGS
Her Latest Production Bears Outlines
of Battleships Flying Stars
and Stripes.

A hen belonging to Elijah John
son, of Gwinnett county, evidently
brooding over the terrible war, has
done her best in the way of prophe-
sying victory for the United States.
This hen laid an egg very plainly
and conspicuously engraved with the
Stars and Stripes, V and the figure
l on it. Wonderment grew when two
days later she added to the collec-
ton another egg inscribed with an
airship. But the crowning effort
came one day later when the third
egg was produced with the lines of
a battleship upon it.
By an ingenious method of deduc-
ton Sheriff W. C. Darby, of Gwin-
nett county, and others have trans
lated the egg marks to mean that the
United States will win the war one
year hence.
