signees had been lost, and their
delivery, except in a few cases,
made possible. Personal baggage,
hardware and automobile tires
comprise the largest proportion OF
the NO Mark shipments, which
are attributed largely to the fal-
ure OF shippers to mark clearly and
to pack their goods substantially.
With the help OF the shippers and
through the influence OF the cam
paign the express company hopes
to solve this problem.
Many NO Mark" shipments lose
their individual character because
the single tag upon which a ship
per depends to carry his package
to destination, is torn oil. The
use OF tags at all is discouraged by
the cXpressmen, but where it is
absolutely necessary, shippers are
urged never to use less than two.
With personal baggage sent by
express, it is wise to enclose the
name and address Of the shipper,
in case further Identification Is
necessary.
Another cause OF damage to or
loss OF shipments in transit is the
use OF poor quality paper and
twine or an insufficient amount Of
good DaDer. Old or second
hand cartons and other con-
tainers, which do not stand
up or carry several old
marks are found to be responsible
for many shipments being dam
aged, wrongly delivered or going
astray. Old marks on baggage
have sent many trunks and suit
cases to the wrong destination.
A special effcrt will be made to
secure the help of business exc
cutives and managers of large con-
Germs in all trades and industries,
in the belief that the proper prep
araJion OF express shipments is a
matter OF Importance to every sue
cessiul business. They will be ask
ed to give the subject personal at
tention and to look into their

this time through the filing Of initia-
tive and referendum petition No
9967 through the agency Of which
it is to again be submitted to vote
Of the electors of the state. A bill
to yitalize Section Twelve a. which
provides for an equal distribution
Of public service corporation taxes
in all counties, was introduced early
in the session.
Former Senator Campbell Russell,
present chairman OF the state cor
poration commission, who has led
the fight to vitalize Twelve A, Joined
in debate in the hall of the house
with A. f. Nandeventer and T. T.
Blakely prior to any action upon the
house bill. On FRIDAY OF last week
an attempt was made to lift the
measure from the committee and
have it placed upon the calendar. A
motion TO table prevailed and it has
been conceded that the measure is
dead as far as the houses action in
the present session is concerned.
unless, as Russell points out in the
present issue Of his paper, The Cat:

1910 Carter county voted l30 YES to
5l5 no; in 1913 the vote was 1910
yes to 35l no, and in 1915, when the
repeal OF the section was proposed,

Demand For IrOgen
AmazeS Druggists

Druggists from almost every section
OF the South report that the demand
mas already assumed record-b breaking
proportions ana is still growing.
In referring to the remarkable sales
Of lrogen in their territory, T.. A. Gin
Hand sales manager of the big Nash
vile drug firm, the Spurlocli Neal
Company, said:
We have been absolutely amazed
at the instant demand for Irogen. Since
beginning distribution. about three
weeks ago, we have sold the astounding
total of 1000 packages, which Is, / be
lieve an unprecedented record"
Mr. Dan Chambliss of the Kuhlman-
Chamblss drug stores, unquestionably
one Of the largest and best known retail
druggists in the Southern State said:
81 have been closely identified with
the drug trade in Knoxville for the
past twenty years, and in all my ex.
perience we have neved handled any
thing in the way Of similar line that
even approaches lrogen as a seller"

IROGEN STRENGTHENS

Il have frequently been asked just
what lrogen is good for. l can best
answer this by using the words of Pro-
fessor Irving r. Bacon, noted au.
thority, who made the much talked
about lrogen investigation. In his re-
port he declared that Irogen had pro.
duced astonishing results among the
people who were pale and with sallow
compilations, and who suffered from
physical weakness, nervous weakness,
nervous dyspepsia and indigestion,
sleeplessness and loss Of weight.
"He further stated that gradually
the nerves, muscles and vital organs
acquired their normal strength and
endurance, and the complexion showed
the enrichment of the vital fluid from
which all parts Of the body draw life
Irogen is. therefore, of special use in
cases of general physical weakness,
due either to disease germs or faulty
habits. The Strengthening effect is
noticeable within eight or ten days
and the digestion also is quick to show
improvement"

It will be noted that the People's
Hospital made very thorough test
Of Irogen before putting their stamp
Of approval upon 1t. They took the
most severe surgical and medical
cases-that is the most stubborn ones
in their institution. They found that
lrogen gave just what was needed by
these weakened, rundown, suffering
people. In every case, they say. the
patients showed marked improvement.
Their blood became rich, red and
healthy, their general condition grew
