farmer living on Route 3 out
of Sparta Georgia recently.
"When I began taking Tanlac." he
continued. I had been suffering for
months with nervous indigestion and
other troubles. My appetite went
baric on me and my stomach got in
t.'-ch a shape that what little I could
force myself to eat eoured and made
me miserable. My nerves were in a
terrible condition: I could hardly

In the morning I sometimes felt
worse than if X hadn't been to bed
at all. I fell off in weigbt and lost
f-o much strength that I didn't know

rre any and I was going down hill
rapidly.
The outlook Is a lot more favor-
able to me now. I started taking
Tanlac a while back and it helped
me from the first few doses. I have
taken five bottles so far snd there's
a world of difference in my feelings.

Airocities In German
Prison Camps Told
New York July The Rev.
Spencer Kennard described in the
Madison avenue church here some of
the sights he had seen in seven
months' work among prisoners of
war in Germany.
Saying that he would tell only of
what had come under his personal ob-
servation Mr. Kennard told of a Brit
ish officer a former pugilist who
knocked out with his bare knuckles
ane of bis German guards who drew
a si ore against him and his com
panlons.
The Britisher was sentenced to
death but intervention got this sen
tence commuted to life imnrison
ment in a fortress where he now is.
"A prisoner with the first sign of
tuoercuiosis mignt as well dig his
own grave" said the speaker. "I saw
these men. for want of proper food
dying all around me."
Mr. Kennard said that when he was
in the prison camps the Germans
plied Irish prisoners with favors and
alluring offers to accept service in a
special battalion against the British.
Both were accepted with Hibernian
winks the sneaker continued and
when it appeared that no more of the
iormer were to be bad the prisoners
cooly informed their captors that
they preferred to remain prisoners
of war. "Poles on the other hand."
he said "we coerced by the most con
temptlble methods."

Germans Alsaet Starve.
When the proud German soldier of
days past will collect tne tins we
throw away that he might by heat-
ing be able to collect some grease for
his meal who will say things are well
with Germany?
When a German guard will run the
risk of fortress punishment for years
for the sake of a couple of biscuits
and when even. death is risked In do-
ing favors for a Un of beef what can
the state of affairs be like?
They see the spirit of our men ever
the same despite years of imprison-
ment. Osr beys have suffered all kinds
f textures rataer than do vrark
vvnlea vraald give direct asslsl-
asce e the Germans in fighting
their erades still In the fine.
These men have fought the mili-
tary and the civilians in the neigh-
borhood of munition sheds and pits
rather than commence work.
They have been carried down the
pits unconscious and. when brought
I round again asked to work but in
face of wounds and bruises tbey have
rerusea and accepted torturing spells
on bread and water in dark cells and
confinement in fortresses where cru
elty runs riot rather than forget they
were British.
SstrK Is Defiant.
It is this spirit the German Is now
being brought to understand. He has
very little of it himself. A crowd of
Germans will sbow courage but as a
rule individually they have very
little.
Old men are now joining the army
so that their families may enjoy the
extra ration. If a man over age vol-
unteers his family Is allowed to draw
his rations as though he were at
home.

It is now that the neutrals want to
keep a close eye on our parcels. For
the most simple thing a man is pun-
ished to the extent of being deprived
of his parcels. Now without these our
men must starve just as the Germans
are starving and just like we have
starved whin they thought hunger
would break our spirits and cause us
to submit to all kinds of tasks.
Wealthy Feel rineh.
It must be borne in mind that the
wealthy and official classes are now
feeling the pinch and to them our
parcels will prove a strong attraction.

TEXAS UNIVERSITY LEADS
IN WAR WORK TRAINING
Dallas Texas. July 20. More than
15000 men will be technically trained
in the University of Texas for the
war department before September 1.
While almost every other nubile In
stitution of the kind in the United
States is now devoted to similar work
fitting men for technical work the
university nas gone further and has
accomplished more than any other.
These facts are set forth In a pam-
phlet issued by the board of regents.
Three important schools for In-
struction in the arts of war have been
established at the university.
There are now more than 1004 men
attending the aviation ground school
for a 12 weeks eoni-ae. If the attend-
1s lance is kept to the maximum as it
has been this school will have trained
4800 men for the aviation section of
the army in a year's time. It is the
largest In the United States and has
sent more than 250 graduates to the
flying fields of America. Italy and
France.
The second war school established
at the university is that for radio op-
erators. In this 100 men are now
taking an eight weeks course and
they leave for overseas as soon as
they are graduated.
The third and largest school estab-
lished in the war work of the Uni-
versity of Texas is that for automo-
bile mechanics. This school has a
capacity of 3000 and this capacity will
probably be doubled soon. Men are
given instructions in automobile con-
struction and repairing and leave for
France Immediately upon graduation.
J. E. rergusons choice for presi-
dent of thh school when he was gov-
ernor was professor L. M. Keasbey
who was personally decorated by the
kaiser of Prussia given the "Royal
Purple" degree and sent back to the
United Suites as one of the personal
exponents of kultur with the accred-
ited title of "Master of the German
Viewpoint." He is now editing a dis-
loyal magazine published intermit-
tently in New York city.

Authentic News of Autumn
FashionsThat's Interesting
SURELY you will be interested at this time in rinding out just
what the new styles in garments accessories and furnishings
are for the approaching Autumn season.
Believing that much authentic fashion news would be of particular
interest to you we wish to extend a cordial invitation to visit this
store at your earliest opportunity and see the advance new styles for
yourself.
Our stocks now display some of the most favored of the early crea-
tions in Coats Suits Dresses Waists Skirts Millinery Dress

The New Style Coats
fOATS for the coming season show simplicity but not se-
verity. Generally speaking the straight line garment that
is sUghdy fitted to the figure is predominant. There is a ten-
dency to do away with belt in both the coat and suit lines but
it is only a tendency for innumerable smart models are fea-
tured with a conservative belt at the normal waist line. Some
consider that the beltless model is less youthful than the one
with at least a semi-belt and for that most important reason
choose the belted garment.
The slight flare that is frequently noticed below the waist line
is produced by shirring or various types of pleats. The bottom
of the coat averages two and a half to three yards in width
and comes usually to the bottom of the dress skirt. It is left
for the fur coats to use die three-quarter length. Pockets
have retreated from their former conspicuous place and while
they exist in the coats they are more for use than ornamen-
tation. Although numerous models do exist that are not fur trimmed
the large majority in the better lines have at least a fur collar.
Many models sbow blocks of fur trimming on the bottom of
the coats and also deep cuffs of fur. To return to the collar
the shawl shape is probably the most often used but the de-
signers are by no means limiting their efforts to this one style
and there is enough variety to suit the most individual taste.
your individual taste in style matters.
New assortments are being added to our present displays each day
and by accepting this invitation to see all of these latest Autumn
fashions you do not obligate yourself in the least although prices
are all so reasonable that any purchase you might make would be a
step toward true economy which should be uppermost in every
thrifty shopper's mind during these days of National conservation.
When may we have the pleasure of showing you these beautiful
advances and early fashions which form the keynote of style infor-
mation for Autumn?
Kinds Of Fur Used
HUDSON seal nutria raccoon opossum and others of
.the longer haired furs are used for trimming for the coats.
It is interesting to note how certain furs are becoming identi-
fied with certain types of garments. For example opossum
might be called a coat fur while squirral is favored for suits.
Of course these combinations are not wfaJEble but they ap-
pear so often that it is noticeable. In coming back into promi-
nence lynx has chosen to be identified with satin and chiffon.
The soft lustrous quality of this particular fur harmonizes un-
usually well with these fabrics.
The New Suit Styles
fHE suits created of velvet and satin that have appeared
in the high priced lines show the suit coat that reaches
at least to the knees. The bottom of this type of coat is
usually uneven and is frequently fur trimmed.
The cloth suits are not so extreme in design; in fact many
models are severely tailored.
In the suit lines the beltless tendency is distinctly apparent in
the consistent effort to do away with the belt entirely or at
least make it inconspicuous.
Colors And Materials
' I "HE favored shades in both the suit and cloak lines run
from the tans through the browns reds and blues into the
purples. A mention of a few of the tones will more dearly
indicate the preference for the various members of the color
card. Beaver brick prune wine garnet pekin. navy ma-
hogany and terra cotta are some of the names that appear
most often.
The materials used are as varied as the colors but the dif-
ferent velours among which the silvertones are prominent are
high in demand. In the highest priced lines duvet lu laine.
duvetyn and boliria are favored. Velvet and satin find a
place in this grade of merchandise. Velveteen and plush
along with broadcloth appear in the medium priced fines.
Types Of Trimming's
2 ONSIDERING the suit Meld as a whole there is a notice-
able use of various styles of trimming. Cord tucks ap-
plied in numerous ways have been found successful as a deco-
rative motif. Embroidery in both yarn and silk in tones closely
blending with the color of the suit fabric is noted frequently.
Beads are still in demand as a suit trinunmg and are often
found in combination with silk floss of the same shade. Silk
braid also comes in for its share of attention.
The New Fall Frocks
BUT the trimming question is more intimately con-
nected with the Fall and Winter dresses than it is
with suits for it is essentially a dress not a suit ac-
cessory. The variety of the ornamentation of the fall dresses is
even greater than that of the suits but if one type of
trimming had to be selected among the many for especial
mention that one would probably be fringe. Buttons
tucks embroidery in yarn and silk Hots beads and braids
are all in use as well as combinations of two or more
brinunings. but fringe is doing hi best to hold the center
if the field while the chance lasts. The present vogue
for sashes tunics and panels is particularly adaptable
to the use of fringe.
Silks And Wool
'THE high lustre fabrics such as meteor and satin in
black and blue and such wools at serge velour and
gabardine are favored for the coming season's frocks.
Many of the sarin models are as tailored as the severest
serges while at the same time many are as dressy as
any occasion may demand; so the range in the styles
of the satin numbers is quite obvious. Tricolette and
Georgette both used alone and in cotnbinatioa are fa-
vored materials in the dresses for fall and winter.
Dame Fashion is particularly interested in fur this sea-
son and consequently the fur market is cSspIaying the
results of her caprices. At this time when pelts and
workmanship are bringing unheard-of prices she has
set her mark of approval on fur garments that have
reached the top notch in lavishness both from the point
of view of style line and the value of the skins employed
in their creation.
One phase of this inconsistency is the short fur coat that
at first glance seems to be an effort at economy. The
short fur coat is in vogue not because it has a foot or
two cut off from around the bottom and consequently
something off the price as compared with the full length
coat but because it is a very chic garment that is par-
ticularly adaptable to sport needs. This conclusion is
drawn because the short coat will apparently sell in
districts where smartness and not price is the main con-
sideration. The staple full length coats that is. if one can safely
term anything in fur staple these days are selling well
along with innumerable stole and collar effects but the
attention for the moment is centered on the various loose
wraps that are appearing in all shapes and forms. Not
so very long since an all-enveloping fur garment was a
coat Today it may be a coat or a cape or one of
several dolman styles. These models which are gen-
erally full length exhibit the greatest extravagance in
skins for besides being on voluminous lines tbey display
enormous collars and stole effects. A fur contrasting
with that used for the body of the wrap is favored for
the trimming and the collar.
Fancy Linings
Favored
PPLYING to furs the time-worn admonition to look
for the "silver linings' of dull clouds does not
imply that the outer side of these garments is so unin-
teresting that they need a gaudy lining to make them at-
tractive. On the contrary the linings apparently are
trying to keep up with the outside for they are as lux-
urious and as varied as the pelts themselves. Chiffon
over satin brocaded satins crepe de chine and various
other silks are used for these linings which are corded
at the seams and feathers stitched into the garment in
many of the higher priced models.
Separate Shirts
And Waists
' I "HE suggestion has been offered that on account of
rising prices some materials less expensive' than
Georgette be used for waists but there is little indication
in Fall and Winter waist lines that this material will be
superseded for many of the manufacturers are creating
Georgette models in huge numbers.
Probably fifty percent of the present business is being
done in white and flesh color waists in various materials.
Besides the Georgette there are numerous cotton fabrics
and satin in these two shades are featured. Practically
the same styles appear in the darker tones that are
featured in the white and flesh colored. While the col-
lar less waist that has enjoyed quite a wide vogue during
the Spring and Summer season is stall noted the Winter
waists generally show a collar in some form.
Elaborate trimming is still favored. It may be either
of glazed or doll beads lace or embroidery in cotton or
silk fringe or balls. The tailored effects favor tiny
tacks r minute pi eatings. Hand embroidery or the
imitation of hand enibrosdery is becoming identified
again with sheer white cotton waists. The higher priced
lines are using hand hemstitching extensively.
Separate Skirts
JpLAIDS. both in the deep Autumn shades and in
black and white have first place in the separate
skirt lines for Fall and Winter wear. Laid in soft deep
side pleats box pleats and even accorrfian pleats these
model: promise to be extremely popular and much in
demand. Not only is the plaid used alone but it is often
combined with a plain material of a harmonizing shade
Cut on the bias and used as folds it serves as an interest-
