Grew Despondent
Over Her Troubles
ONCE WAS "MOST WRETCHED
PERSON," SAYS MRS.
GREENE.
"Before I began taking Tanlac I
was the most wretched person I expect
you ever saw, but now I am as
, happy as I can be over the good that
Tanlac has done me," said Mrs. Magr
gie Greene, of 1219 Avenue A, Ensley,
Ala.
"For a long time I suffered from
indigestion and stomach trouble,"
she continued, "and had grown so
weak from loss of energy that I
really took no interest in anything.
I would suffer for hours from gas
on my stomach that made me dizzy
and gave me palpitation of the
heart I fell off until I weighed
only 95 pounds, and was so weak
and run down I could not do any
work about the house. I was so
nervous that at times I trembled all
over and I got so cross and fretful
t -I was not like myself at all and was
growing more despondent every day.
"Nothing I took seemed to reach
my troubles and I just went from
bad to worse. My husband got a
bottle of Tanlac for me, and as soon
as I began taking it I started to improve
and began to eat and my apr
petite got better every day. The
disagreeable fulness does not trouble.
me any more after meals and I
just feel fine. In fact, I do not
know what it is to have a pain now.
I sleep like a log at night, have
gained 10 pounds and everyone tells
me I look like a different woman."

OTHER NEUTRALS TO
t FOLLOW TO END |
?
Neutrals Have Been Afraid of Gernanj
up to the Present Time
Germany's retreat along the western
front is being accepted by the
neutral nations of Europe, whoconstitute
the only adaquate impartial
observers left in the world, as the beginning
of the Kaiser's inevitable defeat.
America's collosal military
strength which is accumulating overseas,
is now exerting a profound influence
upon all the neutral chancellories
and is giving courage to them
to defy the insolent outlaw of Berlin.
\
The first neutral to snow unmis
takably how tjie world outside # the |
' conflict regards the present plight of]
the German militarists is Spain. The|
demand by the Spanish government1
that Germany consent to the seizure
of interned German to make good the!
losses of Spanish vessels sunk by
German submarines shows how Spain j
feels over the situation. ,
Spain has played an opportunists
part without the war. Spain has
^ tried to pick the winner in advance,
but has hesitated as to the tide of
battle fluctuated. Now, however,
by challeging Germany's piratical
rights at sea, King Alfonso's government
demonstrates that the Spanish
,authorities believe Germany is going
to lose the war.
The meek acceptance of Spain's
ultimatum by the Kaiser is within
itself a confession that Germany
I committed the greatest diplomatic j
mistake in modern history when she
refused to abide by a like ultima,
turn from the United States,
i It is impossible for the Kaiser's
carmarflla to offer a satisfactory explanation
to the German people con
' cerning this reversal of attitude. The
malignant influence upon Germany
morale will be extensive and loss of
confidence in the judgement of those
entrusted with Germany's future
,fate will certainly become evident.
GLADYS COKER IN Y.M.C.A.
Columbia, Aug. 29.?Fearing that
her younger brother would manage to
get into the army and get overseas
before she could do it, Miss Gladys
Coker, of Hartsville, S. C., has en.
tered Y. M. C. A. overseas work and
is happy.
"I did not want my younger brother
to beat me into the service", she
said, "so I started after an overseas
appoirtment and got it, and I'm very,
L
very happy."
Miss Coker usually gets what she
starts after. She is a portrait paint- J
er and a daughter of a prominent
South Carolina family, Coker College
in Hartsville having been founded
by her grandfather, Major J. L.
Coker. She recently received an A.
B. degree in Swathmore. Miss Cok*r
will be in Y.M.C.A. canteen, service
for which she is well equipped.
KEYSTONE OF ENEMY LINE
IN HANDS OF THE BRITISH
French Trodps Are Again Advancing
on City of Roye.
Smashing through the German
lines in battle field of northern Pic
ardy, British troops have reached the
western and northern outskirts of Bapaume,
the town which has been considered
to be the keystone of the enemy
lines in that sector of the front.
The official statement issued at
London shows slow but continued
progress in almost every part of the
line from Croisilles, for to the north,
to well below the Somme river.
The British are advancing toward
Beugnatre, two and a hr.lf miles
".crthcast of Bapaume nearer the
Somme river they have moved eastward
along the difficult ground borders
that esteem. They are report-:
ed east of Suzanne which is situat- '
ed on the northern bank of the river
and are closing in on Dompierre
which may be the pivot of the German
lines south of the Somme in the
direction of Chaulnes.
French troops are once more advancing
near Roye, the official statement
issued at Paris telling of successes
near St. Mard, about a mile
south of Roye. Heavy German
counterattacks were repulsed in this
region.
Betweep the Ailette and the Ainse
the French have repulsed German
counter-attacks and have advanced
their lines about three quarters of a
mile in the direct east of Bagneux.
This advance should bring General
Mangin's army nearly north of the
town of Juvingy, which appears to
I be important from a defensive point
i of view.
There is little indication, however,
! that the German armies are demoral?

from Arras to . Soissons. At every
point they seem to be fighting savagely
and to be compelling the British
and French t oextendthemselves
to the limit. This resistance seems
to be especially vigorous in the region
of Crosilles and further north
between the Cojuel and Scarped riv*>r
where the British attacked recently.
I DRINK HOT WATER" 1

Says you really feel clean, sweet
and fresh inside, and
I are seldom ill. j
I If you are accustomed to wake up
with a coated tongue, foul breath or
a dull, dizzy headache; or, it your
meals sour ana tarn into gas ana i
acids, you have a real surprise awaiting
you.
?To-morrow morning, immediately
upon arising, drink a' glass of hot
water with a teaspoonful of limestone

first neutralize and then wash out of
your stomach, liver, kidneys and
thirty feet of intestines all the Indigestible

! urged to get a quarter pound of limo|
stone phosphate from the drug store
and begin enjoying this morning inside-bath.
It is said that men and
women who try this become euthul
elastic and keep it up daily. It Is a
1 splendid health measure for it is more
j important to keep clean and pure on
I the inside than on the outside, because
the skin pores do not absorb impurities
into the blood, causing disease,
while the bowel pores do.
The principle of bathing lnBide Is
not new, as millions of people practice
It Just as hot water and soap cleanse,
purify and freshen the skin, so hot
water and a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate act on the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels. Limestone phosphate
is an inexpensive white powder
and almost tasteless,
CAPTURE SINKER OF LUSITANIA
A French Patrol Boat Caught Him in
Mediterranean.
Paris, Aug. 27.?Lieutenant Schweiger,
the man who sank the Lusitania,
has been captured by a French
patrol boat in the Mediterranean, according
to La Journal. A large sub
marine, of which he was second command,
had just torpedoed a British
steamer, between Malta and Sicily.
The' German was waiting to see the
vessel sink when two French patrol
boats emerged from the fog and sank
the U-boat. Of the crew only one
officer and four men were rescued by
the boats. (
While being taken to Toulon 'the
officer appeared ill at ease. When he
thought no one was looking he tried
to throw some papers overboard, but
a sailor seized his arm. He refused
to answer questions but examination
of the papers explained his uneasiness.
Lo Journal asks if the man who
committed the "most vile, the most
barbarous and the most cowardly act
in the annals of war" is merely to be
sent to the prison camp.
A dispatch from Toulon Friday
which described the sinking of a German
submarine in the Mediterannian
patrol boats added that the mate of
the submarine attempted to commit
snio.irip wlipn hrrmo-Vif nn VinawJ nf
rescue ship. The man appeared to be
insane and is reported to have declared
that the U-boat had torpedoed
the Lusitania.
