Learns of the War.


A woman was discovered in this
city yesterday who has lived all
through the great war and did not
know that 1t was going on. She is an
aged woman of German birth. Her
age kept her son from telling her
about the horrors of the invasion of
Belgium and Of the sinking Of the Lu-
sitania. He didn't wish her to worry
and fret. But the day of the peace
demonstration made it impossible to
keep silent. The old lady heard The
whistles blowing and the crowds
cheering and she demanded to know
what it was all about When they told
her she raised her hands in a gesture
of imprecation and said: "Oh, if only
could get these two hands on the
kaiser" The interesting part of her
story is that her husband was a Ger
man soldier. The gray uniform was
so detested by him that he made his
wife, before his death, promise that
she would come to America so that
none of their sons ever would be COM

Had Been Failing In Health Past Two Years; Nerves Frazzled Out; Hands and Feet Would Swell Up; Vii tality Low.
COULD NOT SLEEP
Rheumatism, Stomach Trou- ble, Heart Palpitation, Fit full Dreams great Annoy ance. Two Bottles of Dreco Overcame It All.

'I have never experienced such won derful relief from anything, as this new medicine Dreco has given" declared Mrs. w. c. Rozelle of 3l24 N. 12th avenue Birmingham. Mrs. Rozelle holds the re- sponsible position of head filter for The Parisian," the well known ladies store
 For the past two years I've felt my self going backward from the standpoint of health, and have been under the cars of doctors most of the time, but their medicine was not giving the desired eff feet. My hands and feet would swell up and get very painful, which I believe was rheumatism. My stomach was out of order, and I had to be quite carefu, of my diet, My nerves were frazzled out so that I could not sleep at night but would lie awake most of the night. Work ing as I did and failing to get restful sleep was pulling me down. My heart would palpitate and my dreams would scare me most to death. My vitality was failing fast and the color was going from my checks
 Pleading about the Dreco expert being in the city, I went to see him and his talk was so sensible, and he explained $eo fully how his medicine Dreco went tc4 the bottom of the trouble and removed theN underlying cause, that 1 bought a bottle, and I've never spent any money in all my life for which I got such goo returns Almost immediately I was feel ing better. and today I'm the happiest woman in the city. l sleep good eat good, and the rheumatism is gone. I am full of energy all the time, so that my work does not wear me out. My nerves are steady and the heart palpitation has stopped. Dreco is the best medicine ever took, and I gladly recommend it.
 Dr. Tharpe the well known Dreco ex- pert, has headquarters at Jacobs Phar- macy, to meet the local public and ex- plain the merits of this great remedy. See him today. Dreco is also sold by the Fulton Drug Go. in Bessemer; Hall s Pharmacy in Fairfield; Central Phar- macy in WI .m.--AdV.

Tuscaloosa, July 7.-(SpeciaD. Petitions addressed to Mayor Robinson have been started in Tuscaloosa, the caption Of which are: Being greatly oppressed by the prices 6 which food is being retailed in this city, prices which we are con- viaced are uT,waTrsntably high and con- tain an aniSH1t oi profit out of all con science, and bsing citizens here, men of moderate income, We desire to lessen as far as possibie the eXsctions to which we are now beirG subjected for food, canned vegetables, fsHits. meats and bulk meat CT bacon iE particular.
 And the opportunity now being at hand to obtain a portion of the surplus sup plies not now needed TOT the United States army, said supplies Icing available to be shipped upon your order, to be sold at So per cent Of the cost price to the United States government, plus freight from nearest U. S. commiSsary depot to this point:
 We as citizens of this community re- spectfully request that you at once open d list at the city hall to receive orders or pledges from citizens who desire to obtain such goods and the advantage of reasonable prices, so that car lots may be assembled in this way; and that you take steps to facilitate citizens here in obtaining this which appears the only moderately priced fooG now obtainable in the United States"
 The petitions are being largely signed. Congressman Oliver has wired that car lot shipments will be made on the order of the mayor of any municipality, the price to be sold a being so per cent of the price the government paid; the munich pality paying the freight on the shipment from the commissary depot good deal of interest is being displayed locally in the proposition and it is probable that several ears may be ordered for distri- button here.
