A mother's anxiety over her cbil

Estate of affairs is sure to aggravate
the condition of the mother and it is
exceedingly difficult to relieve cases

Mississippi Lady Recites Her
Family's Experience in Pre-

C and Tells How Quick Re-
lief Follows Use of Black
'J. Draught
;-:' Edinburg, Miss. Mrs. Lula Mc-
iLuchlin, who lives a; few miles out
i of this town, recently made the fol-
i lowing statement m regard to Thed
; ford's Black-Draught, the old, reliable,
: family liver medicine:
: "We have used Thedford's Black-
praught in our family for years, as
a liver and stomach medicine, I have
'used it for indigestion, gas on the
stomach, for bloating and a disagree
able taste in the mouth.
A couple of good doses will relieve
a sick headache and make you feel
like a new person.
' I keep it, especially in the winter,
; for grip and colds. It has been such
a wonderful help to us.
Black-Draught has saved us many
good dollars in doctor bills, as a great
deal of sickness comes from consti
pation, and torpid liver which . . .
can be relieved by so simple a remedy
as Black-Draught. I praise it to all
any friends."
4 Torpid, or slow-acting liver, is the
commonest form of liver trouble met
'with, in America. The liver does not
,:do Its duty in helping the digestion of
food and regulating the bowels.
Thedford's Black-Draught has been
; found a very valuable remedy for de
l rangements or the liver and stomach,
not only in the case of this Missis-
'Bippi family but in thousands of sim
ilar cases.

(By George H. Manning.)
Washington, D. C, Feb. 27. Army
officers, of whom there are six or
geven thousand on' duty in Washing
ton, have been given orders by the
War Department to stay away from
public dance halls frequented by en
listed men and civilians of "uncoth
character."
The order signed by Adjutant Gen
eral Austin A. Parker, by direction of
the Secretary of War, asserts . that
It is unofficer-llke and subversive of
discipline for commissioned officers
to attend these public dance halls and
associate with the habitues of such
resorts.
The order grew out of "the discov
ery by one-of the Washington police
mm T t X A.
women or a Major ana jieuienam
dancing in the old Masonic Temple
dance hall while enlisted men and
civilians of "more or. less uncouth
character" were dancing there. ' This
discovery was made in connection
with some trouble some off icers . had
at that dance hall and other dance
halls when they intruded on the dance
engagements of the enlisted men and
civilians.
The order issued by the Adjutant
General of the army to all Bureau
Chief and all Commanding Officers in
the vicinity of Washington reads as
follows:
"1. The following extracts from a
letter from the Chief of Police, Wash
ington, are quoted for your informa
tion:
"For some time I have been intend
ing to call your attention to the mat
ter of commissioned officers
attending and dancing at cheap pub
lic dance halls in the District. Sev
eral months ago one of our po
lice women reported to me a Major
and Lieutenant dancing in the old Ma
sonic Temple dance hall in company
with the type of girls who frequent
public dance halls. At the. same time
various enlisted men and civilians
of more or less uncouth character
were 'dancing in this hall.
"It was in connection with this same
hall that an officer of the army
got in trouble with some of these men
about dancing with other girls.
"Last night there was some trouble
with two commissioned officers at the
Arcade dance hall
"What the police department is in
terested in is the prevention of trouble
because of the attendance of officer
at a place where enlisted men and
civilians of uncouth character also
dance with girls of the public dance
hall type and if this practice is
permitted to continue there is going
to be trouble because of the jealousies
and the intrusions of officers in the
dance engagements of enlisted men
and civilians."
"2. The Secretary of War directs
that the foregoing extracts be brought
to the attention of the officers under
your command, particularly to those
who are young and inexperienced, and
that they be advised that the attend
ance of commissioned officers at re
sorts of this character and their as
socialon there with the habitues of
such resorts is most unofficer-like and,
J 4-T - , . . .
i" me presence or ennstea men, can
not but be subversive of disefnlinp
Such conduct falls far below the
standard which the War Department
has always set for the observance .of
officers, and the fact that it has caus
ed comment by the Police Department
should prevent a repetition of this of
fense."

Mi COINAGE
OF WENT PIECES
A Bill Introduced in Congress
Providing for Minting Two
Penny Coins
CONTROL WASN'T EXPECTED.
Governmental Action Will Have Bfut
Little Effect Locally.
The anounced intention of the eov
erhment, as outlined in President Wll
son s proclamation of recent date, to
lase over control of all plants, man
uiacturing fertilizer after March 20.
will nave little effect on this season's
output in this section, as practically
the entire output of Southern plants
has already been sold on contract and
50 per cent or more already shiDned
to retail dealers and farmers, although
similar conaiuons do not ore vail in
the North, as 'traffio congestion has
prohibited heavy shipping.
ine governmental decision came as
a surpljse to local manufacturers, al
though they have been keeping in
close touch with the situation, as
price fixing for nitrates has been the
suDject of much discussion of late and
action Qf .this nature was expected at
an early date.
Lack of fertilizer materials has
greatly curtailed this year's shipments
and they will be much smaller than
those of the nast vear. Hnwovoi.
those of last year were the largest
since 1915, when minimum shipments
were made.
(By George H. Manning.)
Washington, D. C, Feb. 27. The
coinage of two-cent pieces at the
United States mints is provided for in
a-bill Introduced In the House of Rep
resentatives by Congressman George
K. Denton, of Indiana.
There has been more or less gen
eral demand for several years for a
two-cent coin.
A recommendation that a two-cent
piece be minted was adopted by the
executive committee of the American
Newspaper Publishers' Association at
its meeting here last Monday. The
new coin, It was pointed out, would
provide a convenient medium of ex
change in purchasing newspapers, the
price of which generally has ad
vanced, to two cents because' of the
news print paper shortage.
The Denton bill proposes that the
new coin shall consist of 95 per cent
copper and 5 per cent tin and zinc,
and weigh 96 grains, or one-fifth of
one ounce.
The diameter and devices on the
coins are to be fixed by the Director
of the Mint, except that on one side
there shall be an inscription of the
word "Liberty," and on the reverse
the words, "United States of Amer
ica," and the designation of the value
of the coin.
The Denton bill also provides that
two-cent pieces shall be legal tender
in any payment to the amount of 30
cents.
Under the terms of the Denton bill
the coin would be of the same mate
rial as the penny is now made and
would be in size between a nickel and
a quarter. A coin quite similar to
this was authorized and placed in use
at the time of the Civil War, and its
coinage stopped in 1873.
Tuesday is said to be the only day
of the week which is not recognized
as the Sabbath by one people or another.
