For some months had been in a
badly rundown condition. My APP

little did manage to eat fermented
and bloated me up with gas until ]
was in perfect misery. My nerves
were so upset l could never get a
good nights sleep. felt tired and
worn out all the time, just had to
force myself to work and was going
down hill every day.
II remembered that about two
years ago when was in rundown
condition and my kidneys were wor-
rying me a great deal, had taken
Tanlac with wonderful results, so /
decided to try 1t again. I commence
ed improving right away and in a
short while my appetite was so good
my wife said she could hardly cook
enough for me to eat. can eat meat
or just anything / want without hav-
ing particle of trouble afterward.
My nerves are in fine shape. l sleep
well and that tired. WORKOUT feeling
is all gone"

1t is said that soap in which from
40 to So per cent of the usual fatty
acids have been replaced by colloidal
or finely divided clay is better than
acids At the same time soap con-
tanning clay is less expensive, The
soap consisting altogether OF fatty
soap-clay mixture behaves much the
same as ordinary soap except that It's
cleansing power is greater.

GAS CO. WOULD GAIN
12DAYS ON USERS
Plans to Bill for New Rate From
May 18 Instead Of
June ].

Although the Public Utilities Com
mission order sets June I as the date
for the 1914 per Increase in gas rates,
1t appeared today the 1880 gas
users would pay the rate boost be-
ginning May 1S last, or thereabouts.
This is made necessary 1t Is claimed
by the fact that the meters customar-
lily are read about the eighteenth OF
each month and it thus would be
impossible to tell how much gas the
consumer used from June 1 to 18. The
new rate is S125 a thousand cubic
feet.
When this was called to the at
tention of Walter c. Allen. executive
secretary to the commission, he said
1t was his opinion the company would
read the meters from May IS to June
1S and bill the consumer fof the new
rate during the entire time.
Howard Reeside, president of the
gas company, is out of town. but at
his office it was stated the consumers
would be billed at the new rate for
the gas used during the latter part
of May which the law says the old
rate Of 95 cents should be charged.

the proposal to dispose OF the GOV

.These ships were built At public

For Goverunent HaadIing.
.T am absolutely opposed to the
sale or disposal Of these ships, either
to foreign interests or to american
corpos ations, as long as they can be
operated at q pront to the Govern
ment.
zone Of the excuses for returning
the railroads to private operation
was that they were being operated
by the government at a loss. which
had to be made up by taxation. Now
IL seems that the only excuse they
have for selling the government-owned
ships is because they are not pro-
ducing a dehcit, but are returning d
good pront.
II think the government by all
means should contiue to operate these
ships, at least long enough for the
government to recoup the slosses In
Cured in the operation OF the rail-
roads.
But IL congress Is determined to
place these pront-earning vessels In
the hands OF private corporations and
foreign shipping interests, regardless
of public necessity or public interest,
the shipping act should provide every
necessary safeguard, both as to the
amounts to be realized by the gov
ernment from the sales and as to
their permanent retention under the

CALLS Jury DUTY
TRUE PATRIOTISM
Justice Gould Presides at
Swearing In of 500
veniremen.

True patriotism, in these stirring
times consists of paying taxes and
doing jury duty, according to Justice
Gould who this morning presided at
the examination and swearing In
of 800 residents, out Of which num-
ber it is expected will be found 104
will qualify for jury service for the
month of June.
The court explained to the pros
pective jurors that he was following
a new system of obtaining jurors
under the new law, which became
operative last month; and that he
hoped for juries composed Of men
capable of understanding the ques-
tions involved and of reaching a just
decision"
Many Of those summoned were ex-
cused on account of being residents
Of Virginia and Maryland. Some
pleaded the minimum wage law as an
excuse, declaring that they would be
driven out of business unless they
could attend to it themselves.

TO DESTROY INSECT PESTS
Two Forms of Insecticides Necessary
for Successful Protection OF
Plants and Foliage.

Do not waste your time spraying
paris green on insects that suck the
Juices from plants and foliage, such
as lice, green, black and white aphis
or fly, mealy bug, red spider and scale,
by thrusting their proboscis into the
leaf or stem, for they are not affect
ed by stomach poisons. They must
be destroyed by contact Insecticides.
Those in powder form kill by clos
ing the breathing pores in the Insects
skin, or in fluid form by being alb
sorbed through these pores, the Amer
lean Forestry Magazine points out.
The best contact insecticides In pow
der form are hellebore, slug shot and
tobacco dust. The best in fluid form
are aphine, black leaf 40, fish (whale)
oil soap, nicotine tobacco extract,
kerosene, miscible oil and lemon Oil.
Insects that eat plants, foliage, vege-
tables, fruits, flowers, ETC., whether
bugs, beetles, worms, caterpillars or
slugs are more quickly and effectu-
ally destroyed with poisonous sto-
machic insecticide such as arsenate of
lead, paris green orfhellebore. These,
If applied according to directions, are
so diluted as to be harmless to vege-
tatinn and TO animal life.
