The following statement from
James A. Forbes. Pho, who for
thirty years has been a leading
druggist OF his city and who has
been mixing medicines and prescrip-
tions all that time under the direc-
tion of some of the nations most
noted doctors. and specialists surely
must convince everyone that in
Earle's Hypo-Cod a real tonic is to
be had. And everybody unless in
perfect health should take some sort
of fall and winter tonic now.

you why" declared James A, Forbes

ter all day and every day run me
down until I was badly in need Of

son who never had any shoes-drug-
Glsts are apt to be half sick all the
time and never take any medicine.
but finally I spent my last sIeepless
night and got up one morning and
couldn't eat breakfast. 1 went down
to the store knowing the Hypo-Cod
formula, picked it out from the
other tonics and took it regularly.
Results were just as 1 expected, but
whole lot quicker than I thought.

felt better all over. My nerves
quieted down and in a few weeks

1t is preferable to all other prep

not have that unpleasant fshy and
nauseating taste and agreeable to

discussions on the convention floor.

Georgia are small compared to
those from other States, but they

have the legion's constitution SO re-

LONG A BRITISH POSSESSION
Island of Bermuda Colonized Eight
 Years Before the Mayflower.
 Sailed From England.

The island of Bermuda was discov- cred in 1915 by Spaniard. Juan de Bermudez Nearly 100 years later an English vessel with Virginia colonisfs was shipwrecked on the island. which had been known as the Isle of Devils because of the terrific storms on it's coast. and had been summed. Ad- miral Sir George Somers. leading the Virginians, died. His body was taken back to England, where the colonists told the wonders of the island. The Virginia company determined to colo nize the islands, and had its charter amended to include islands within 300 leagues of Virginia. AS result. 5O coionists were sent out in 1912, eight years before the Mayfiower sailed: Later the Virginians sold their rights to a Bermuda company, which so sub- verted the inhabitants that they formed a parliament and fought fos their rights. Three branches of govern ,ment were devised. Regulations were most severe. and penalties were of the most extreme nature. .@

DIAMONDS IN RWER'S BED
Diving Bell Employed to Bring Gems From the Bottom of tho Vaai
 River in Africa.

Deep in the Vaal river in South Africa are diamonds. To get them a device on the diving bell principle is employed having tubular shaft and an air lock. This consists. of two pon- toons rigidly connected by decks, between which a roOmy caiSsOn or div ing bell is sunk to the river bed.
 A tubular shaft joins the caisson to d chamber above the water level and inc whole is air locked. To keep the caisson submerged it is weighted with iron ballast, says the South African Mining and Engineering Journal.
 Compressed air is forced into the interior of the upper or air lock cham her, the shaft and the bell or caiSSOn. and the river water being thus forced out below it is possible to carry on digging and loading operations con- venipntlv. The gravel is hoisted up the shaft and delivered into a chut' which holds about a ton. The bell i> provided with cOllapSible seats attacl3 ed to the wall for the accommOdation of workers during lifting operations.

Won His Honors WorthiIy.

First Sergeant Dan Daily, undoubt- edly the best-known man in all the services, with the exception of Ser geant York of Argonne fame, has been placed on the inactive list of the Ma ,rine corps reserve. Daily won two medals of honor for valor in the Boxer rebellion and in the capture of Fort Riviere, in Haiti, and is said to be the only man in all the services who holds two medals of honor. In the world war his feats of exceptional bravery won for him the metallic militaire and the croix de guerre from France and the distinguished service cross from General Pershing. His passing from the active list to accept a position with prominent banking house in New York removes from the marines their most picturesque of the old school soldiers.
