DR. CHEEK THREW
 AWAY OVER S3OOO Troubles Disappeared When He Took Tanlac-Gained
 Twenty-Five Pounds

From Dr. NJ. c. Cheek, well known optician who resides on F D. No. I. out of Hawiinsvi!le. Ga, comes the follow ing remarkable statement regarding the extraordinary powers of Tanlac. pr. Cheek. who has practiced his profession in Hawkinsville and vicinity for years. declares he spent s3o00 trying to get re- lief, and 1t was just like money thrown away, as he didn't improve.
 Writing to Eli w. Goode, the progres- sive Hawkinsville druggist, pr. Cheek said:
 T spent over 5000 trying to get rid of stomach trouble. had the best treat ments could find in this state and was even treated by a specialist in Chicago, without relief. I lost weight and went down hill until only weighed 1O7 pounds.
 T began taking Tanlac on the first Of January and took four bottles. I gained 9 pounds and now weigh 132 and my troubles have gone''
 Statements of this kind coming from well known people and published right in the community where each and every fact can be investigated and verified, leave nothing to be desired in establish ing the merit of the widely talked of med tcine. Tanlac.
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu- sivcly by Eugene Jacobs drug store and Patton-Pope Drug Co.-Adv.

LONDON. Aug. 1s.-The seriousness of
the situation confronting the Czecho-
Slovak forces in eastern Siberia is in
dicated by a cable from Gen. Diedrichs.
their commander. His message, which
he wanted sent to all allied Governments,
stated that the position of his troops was
daily becoming more critical, whereas
the enemy forces are growing.
The task before us becomes, II not
impossible. at least very difienlt." he
says "Our troops will cheerfuily do
their duty. but ] feel II is my duty TO
point out to the allied Powers that the
fulfilment of this task may mean the
loss of all the troops II we do not Sue
ceed in our mission before winter sets
In, six weeks hence.
1T is clear the loss OF all these troops
would be severe blow to the Allies
and great gain to the enemy as Rus
sia would then be left at the mercy OF
Germany"
The General adds that the liberation
OF Siberia from the Germans and Mag
vars can be accomplished II the Allies
do not confine themselves to the opera
tions at Habarovsk. but provide sufii-
cient military assistance TO insure his
advance to Irkutsk.
His message emphasizes a fact which
has been the burden of all messages
from Siberia in the last few weeks,
namely, that there are two problems
there, the relief OF the CIechs between
the Volga and Baikal. and an expedition
from Vladvostok. Diedrichs states that
the German-Magyars can concentrate
10000 troops and 200 guns against him.
This indicates that the enemy forces
enormously outnumber his own and that
they are far superior in artillery.
He anticipates pressure against the
Czechs on the Volga front in order TO
nulliaG assistance from the Baikal zone.
He Also fears his detachment will be
held WI lie the main body OF enemy pris-
oners will be sent to Irkutsk, beyond
which they will be able 10 organize fur
ther forces, thereby threatening the
whole body of Czechs between Irkutsk
and ths volga.
Regarding the western group OF
Czechs 1t might be possible to wait until
spring to relieve them. but In the Far
East help Is needed Immediately. Died
ricfs is now moving westward more
than 1900 miles from Nladivostok, and
II the Allies remain aloof the Czech
leader has little hope of success

T ,IEUT. H. J. ATKINSON, Sew
enth Infantry, writes to a
SUN Tobacco Fund donor:
"Your box of smokes was dis
tributed 500 yards from the
Boche on the Marne battle front.
They sure were appreciated by
the men who received them.
One man said:
"I don't know who sent these
but he's good plug and I'm for
him!
"That means a lot, although a
rather crude way of expressing
it. THE SUN Fund seems to
have followed this outfit all over
France. We get everything we
need-good eats, clothes, books,
&C., and from THE SUN the
smokes to top it off,"

SOLDIERS GET MORE
PORK TO SAVE BEEF
Action Only Temporary, War
Department States. --
Special Despatch TO THn suS.

WAsHINGroN, Aug. 1s.-Fresh pork
twice In every ten days In lieu OF fresh
beef will be incorporated in the ration
of the soldiers Of the American army
within continental United States.
In making this announcement the War
Department says the expedient Is only
temporary ono, and the action is to be
taken for period sufficiently long to
permit the supply of fresh beef to re-
sumo norma!lty.
There is an abundance OF fresh pork
on hand ard the move made by the sub
sistence division OF the Quartermaster
Corps was with view to restoring the
balance between the supply and demand
for fresh beef.
II will mean a large saving In fresh
beef. for the substitution will make pork
20 per cent. of the soldiers fresh meat
ration.
