ACCIDENTS COSTLY
SAYS "SAFETY NEWS

SAN FRANCISCO, March 15.-In
the lumber industry there is ap
proximately one man injured for
each three and one-half employed
throughout the year, says James
C. Bennett, in a statement publish
ed by the California Safety News,
issued by the State Industrial Ac-
cident Commission. 1t is stated that
the average of all industries
throughout the country is one man
injured out of each eight employ
ed, although this ratio has prob
ably changed during the past year
or two. Experiences of individual
lumber companies show that the
accident ratio can be reduced to
one man in six or seven during the
year.
what the accidents of 1917
meant to the lumber industry in
loss of labor is shown when we find
that the lost time due to temporary
disabilities only amounted to A.
945 days." says the statement.
For the entire lumber industry of
the State, the operating season av-
eraged approximately 210 days. On
this basis the lost time was equiva-
lent to carrying on the pay roll
group of 225 men for the entire
operating season at a cost of prac-
tically $4,000, but without one
days work being realized, where
as this same group of men usefully
employed, together with those IA
tally and permanently injured dur
ing the year, would have received
a wage of approximately $780,

Europe Likes American Mix

European people have learned to
like American dairy products. Tx
ports Of condensed milk TO Europe
rose from 100000 pounds in 1914
70 530,O00,0OO pounds in 1918, and
there were notable increases in eX-
ports of other dairy products. Much
Of this may be due TO abnormal war
demands, but the United States de-
partment Of agriculture believes
that there is both an opportunity
and q tendency 10 expand in this
direction over pre-war require
ments. 4 normal increase in dairy
ing in this country. the department
thinks, is fully justified, provided
there IS the necessary increase in
feed crops.

WORTH WEIGHT IN GOLD, HE ASSERTS Howard Gains IA Pounds Taking Tanlac and Lays
 Cane Aside

I've gained fourteen pounds in sis weeks taking Tanlac, and now I'm well man." said Henry $. Howard, well-known farmer and stock raisei of King Hill, Idaho
 'I had suffered from rheumatism and indigestion twelve years" he con tinued. and could hardly eat a thing because everything went against me apd I had no appetite. Every joint in me was swollen with rheumatism and hurt so I could hardly bear to be touched. I was in~ such & bad fix couldn't work, and had to use a walk ing stick to get along. Tho first bot tie of Tanlac made great change in my feelings. my rheumatism soon left me and I threw my stick aside, for now I can walk as well as anybody.
 And eati Why, I just can't get enough, and feel like I could do as much work as I ever could. Tanlac is worth its weight in gold, and it has convinced me that there's at least one medicine that will do what they say 1t will and I want to do my part in letting everybody know about it"
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu- sively by Eugene Jacobs drug store and Patton-Pope Drug Co.--Adv.

SEES SUSTAINED
 ATTACK ON MARRIAGE
Bishop of Hereford oints to Danger ous Trend of Events In
 Recent Years
By Associated Press

Manchester, Engeland, December % Everything points to the near approa oh of a general, deliberate and sustained at tack on the Christian conception of mar riage, declared the Bishop of Hereford in an address at Manchester Cathedral on New Ideas Of Marriage''
 'The war has lowered the prestige of marriage in the thought of many people and vsibly~ endangered it's character" ." said the bishop This has been accom- plishad partly by endowing women and girls with unprecedented independence and forcing them into public prominence for which nothing in their previous ca reers had prepared them: most of all 5y shaking the whole fabric of civilized so- ciety and bringing into open question the acceoted principle of social order, dis crediting churches. breaking dov'n er- thority and forcing under ruthless clil.- csm the most intimate and fundamental assumptions of human conduct
 "The divorce shows us the picture of a society governed by impulse rather than by principle, swept along by the currents of se,f-indulgent fashion rather than pur- suing determined course by the direction of settled convictions of personal duty.

Movement comes the New Year message from one in charge of several southern states-Dr. James O. Grogan:
 This movement faces the new year with unshaken confidence in the as- sured leadership of Jesus, Christ in these eventful and critical days. When the whole creation is in travail and pain together. surely it is not unrea- sohable to say that we are living in a time when humanity should have de- lverance from the powers of this worlds darkness; from the domination of spiritual wickedness in high places
 Tt is just that humanity must find before we can stabilize political gov ernments, readjust human relationships and create a new social order that will keep the peace of the world and pro- tect the sacred rights of mankind.
 The interchurch world movement does not believe that political rebirth of freedom is in itself as great as that may be, sufficient to meet the funda- mental needs of the present hour.
 "This movement stands first of all for spiritual rebirth' of freedom for mankind as the fundamental need of the hour. The only basis for faith in the power of Jesus Christ to redeem the world-for faith in the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man as the ulll1HdLe Ol lHlS TeueInpllVe pro- cess-is that mankind shall have spiritual rebirth.
 'The only reasonable, impelling and enduring basis of communion and fel- lowship, human or divine. is a spiritual basis. Therefore, the interchurch world movement greets you upon the threshold of 1920 as the only single in- strument or agency through which all evangelical Christian churches can re- adjust and coordinate all of their spiritual and material resources in such fashion as will enable them, under God, to undertake world wide evangelistic campaign for the creation of a spiritual democracy in which we shall find healing peace. political free dom, and social justice for distressed and shattered world

II SHOULD BE IN EVERY HOME, SAYS
 RANDOLPH %. MAN
He Was Speaking of Dreco, the Root and Herb Medi- cine, Which Gave Him Quick Relief From Rheu- matism and Kidney Trou- ble.

T think every home in this country should have a bottle of Dreco in it... are the words of that well-known farmer. MT. D. l.. Jones' who has lived all his 61 years near Pittman, Ran dolph County, Alabama.
 Since taking Dreco I am feeling better than in the past fifteen years [ thought I was getting too old for any medicine to do me much good. for I had rheumatism all over my body; every joint and muscle in me ached. My back ached over my kidney so that il pained me to stoop over, or to climb steps My bowels were9bound up so that had to take some kind of medi- cine for them each night My liver was also inactive, and I frequently had headches. dizzy spells and a foul breath.
 Every day I would see in the pa pers about somebody right near home that was praising Dreco for having cured them of the same troubles as mine, so I bought a bottle and right there is where my pains began to end. Dreco got my bowels acting fine; the liver got active, so that the dizzy spells ceased. My kidneys became nor mai and regular. and that knocked out the rheumatic pains in my joints and muscles. I haven't had pain in my back for some time, and I stoop and bend as I please. Dreco has sure knocked out my troubles, so that say to all who suffer as I did, get Dreco and get over your pains.''
 When the kidneys become deranged and fail to strain the poisons from the blood, rheumatism is very apt to fol- low. The only way to clear the sys- tenn of rheumatism Is to get tha kid- neys and bowels to acting right. there by eliminating the poisons from the system. for this Dreco cannot be ex- celled.
 All good druggists now sell Dreco and is highly recommended in Bir- mingham by Norton Drug company Dreco is also sold in Bessemer by the Fulton Drug company. in Fairfield by Halls pharmacy in Wylam by Central pharmacy.-Adv.
