Three generations have found great re

proaching motherhood, by the safe, time
honored massage, "Mother's Friend".
It gently softens every fibre, cord, ten

comes soft and elastic. Tension and
strain upon the expanding abdominal
muscles is relieved when baby arrives;
morning sickness or nausea usually is not
felt and the crisis is passed with infinite
ly less pain and danger.
"Mother's Friend" has been used by ex
pectant mothers with the greatest suc
cess for over forty years.

Some commentators on the prophe

or whatever will be his fate, he seems
to be a pretty hard customer when
the combined world can't whip him.
You can't whip him and you can't
scare him. He seems intrenched m
his devilment.
Tho difference between drilling the
troops now, and during the war of
61-65 reminds the writer of an old
rough-looking captain who came in
with company on the drill ground,
and in forming his company from
two ranks into one, gave the com
mand "From two ranks ilto one,

Daniel White Johnson of the Spring
Hill section was one of the few great

the university a year afterwards he
was met a mile out of town and the
horses1 taken out of the carriages
and he was pulled into town by his
admirers. He studied law and moved
to Alabama. He entered as a private

colonel of his regiment invited the

McDonald, July 17 Since the heavy
rains have ceased the roads have im
proved greatly and render traveling
much easier and more pleasant. How
ever, the grass grew so fast that
the farmers are working very hard
to catch up with their work. In some
places the cotton looks scorched and
burnt up, and tobacco bids fair to be
the best . crop in this section, al
though little of it has been grown.

How Long Must I Suffer
From the Pangs of Rheumatism?
Is there no real relief in sight?
Doubtless like other sufferers, you
have often asked yourself this ques
tion, which continues to remain un
answered. Science has proven that your Rheu
matism is caused by a germ in your
blood, and the only way to reach it is
"by a remedy which eliminates and re
moves these little pain demons from
your blood. This explains why lini
ments and lotions can do no perma
nent good, for they cannot possibly
reach these germs which infest vour
blood by the millions.
S. S. S. has been successfully used
for Rheumatism for more than fifty
years. Try it to-day, and you will
find yourself at last on the right
track to get rid of your Rheumatism.
You can get valuable advice about the
treatment of your individual case by
writing to the Chief Medical Adviser,

eminent is lending money to Entente
governments.
Indications are that the amount of
the second authorization will be no
less than the first, and may go as
high as $5,000,000,000.
There is every reason to believe
that the administration's policy of
financing the allied governments for
nurchases thev make in this country
will be continued during the period
of the war, and that the vast sums
to be loaned dn the future will be loaned
as in the past, at the same rate of
interest the American government
will have to pay for the money and
on the security of Entente govern
ment bonds to be deposited in the
Treasury.
While no official announcement has
been made of what the government
intends to do toward continuing to
finance the Allies when the present
authorized loan of $3,000,000,000 is
exhausted and none is likely to be
made until after the flotation of the
next liberty loan sum during the fall
it is pointed out that nearly one half
of the $3,000,000,000 already has been
exhausted.
The amount of credits placed to
foreign governments already is $1,
303,000,000, or approximately 34 per
cent of the total and this covers the
financing of only two months and
twenty aays

Flies Breed

FILTH MEANS DISEASE and flies are bom in filth, feed on filth
and carry filth with them wherever they alight. Flies hatching
today in an outhouse, etableyard or in garbage, may bring distress to
your family later on in the summer. They may bring typhoid fever,
summer complaint, consumption,, malaria, or perhaps infantile paralysis.
The fly is almost the exclusive conveyor of diarrhoea and dysentery
among children and babies.
Eats Filth and Destroys tho Fly Eggs
This wonderful Lye eats up filth and leaves absolutely nothing for files
to feed on or breed in. Just sprinkle it once or twice a week in the
privy or outhouse. It does the work. Encourage your neighbor to
clean his out-house also, because what's- good for yours is good for his.
RED DEVIL LYE is also simply wonderful for making soap, con
ditioning' hogs, and for making compost for fertilizer.
RED DEVIL. LYE is sold by all grocers. Demand 10c cans. One dime can
