"Tanlac is a good medicine, and I am glad to say I think it as good or better than any other remedy I have ever used," declared Mrs. J. T. Mc Alister, of No. 9 Bryant St., Brandon Greenville, in a statement she gave June 2nd. "My (laughter took Tan lac because she was suffering from a badly weakened condition, and she was so sick she was just able to be out of bed. Her appetite had left her and she didn't eat anything at all hardly. All the time she complain ed of pains in her side and of head aches. "But the Tanlac soon had her strong and well and she wentt back to work and is working regularly now. Ie gave her a good appetite and built up her entire system. IIer strength increased rapidly after she began tak ing Tanlac, and now she never com pllains of those pains in her side nor of headaches."

Washington, Aug. 19.-The War Department is plhlnning to send more than 800,000 infantrymen to France. On the basis of two infantrymen to one artilleryman, the- ratio preserv ed in the organizations of the new divisions, this will mean that at the very least our overseas forces will number 1,200,000 fighting men. Of the more than a million and a half the United States will soon have under arms the remainder will be re tained in the United States as depot troops from which the vacancies in the expeditionary forces will be filed. This statement, the first authorita tive indication of the actual number of fighting men to go abroad, was con tained quite incidentally in a bulletin from the committee on public infor mot:on today. Officials have hitherto maintained strict silence on the -matter and to day no further information as to the time or order of the moving of troops was permitted to be publ i ghed. The Beauty Secret.'

DICKSON'S [ It is known, however, that 100,000 men a month can be transported to Europe and kept in supplies there with the shipping now at hand. If the full possibilities of the shipping facilities availed of, and it hos always been insisted that they would, this will mean that the 1,200,000 men will be in Europe within the year. Equipment. The bulletin of the committee on information in which this statement was contained, related to the cost of the equipment of infantrymen. Each man's full equipment to start with will cost $156.30, divided as fol lows: Clothing, etc., $101.21; eating utensils, etc., $7.73; fighting equip ment, $47.36. The fighting equipment, which in cludes steel helmets and gas masks, is to include the United States rifle, mode 19.031 generally known as the Springfield. It is announced that the first 600,000 to $800,000 troops to go to France will carry that weapon, but the socalled Enfield rifle, used by the British troops, is being manufactured to equip the American troops, and has been oflicially designated as tht United States rifle, model of 1917. The Springfield. This means that all of the infantry of the original expedition will carry the "Springfield." It is not stated in the announcement where the British Enfield is being manufactured, but recent reports have been to the effect that it is being made in England. The estimates of cost given are for infantrymen only and only those who are to go to France are mentioned. Figured on a basis of 800,000 it will cost in round numbers $125,000,000 for infantry equipment alone. These figures do not, of course, in dlude transportation, subsistence, medical supplies, ammunition, etc., ex cept that on the item of ammunition each man is furnished, as- a starter, with 100 cartridges. The additional ammunition which will be needed at the front is not mentioned, nor many other items. BACKING UP PROOF SThe Kind 'T'hat Manning People Can not Deny.

"Yes," said Mrs. Thice Morgan, "I am only too glad to talk about it but it seems almost too much like a miracle to be actually true." "It's strange to think I am here and well and doing my housework. I hart been suffering for two years with the most awful blood disease. 'Finally I had to take to my bed, and I steadily lost ground. After I had been down in bed for two 'months, the Doctor said that I must go to the Hospital." "I asked if I might stay at home And try Sulferro-Sol as several of my neighbors had been heale dof blood diseases by this medicine. The Doc tor said it was my last and only chance, and I might try it." "Were you ever given up to die, and then got well? If you have ever had that experience you can imagine .my gratitude to find myself improving almost at once." "I got well so quickly that it seems hardly possible. I certainly do bless Sulferro-Sol every (lay. All my neighbors know of my case and tell me often of the wonder of it." "I feel that there cannot possibly be another blood medicine in all this world like Sulferro-Sot." Ask your Druggist how Sulferro Sol heals and builds, he knows.

The Murray Drug Co., I Columbia, State Distributors.--adv. 76 MORE SIIPS MAY BE TAKEN OVER BY U. S. S. Negotiations Opened With the Neth erlands for Use of Vessels Held at American Ports. Washington, Aug.-'Ihe Nether lands government and the United States government have entered upon negotiations which may result in al lowing the United States to use 76 ships belonging to the Netherlands, now lying idle in United States ports. These vessels have been tied up at Atlantic ports since the Ger man submarine warfare was inten sified February 1 for fear they would be sunk by submarines. Makes Offer. Herbert C. Hoover, food adminis trator, has made a proposal to Che valier Van Rappard, the Netherlands minister, that the United States be allowed to pse the Dutch ships for the purpose of carrying more food to the other side of the Atlantic for Belgium relief work. In return for the use of the ships the United States government proposes to see to it that a large portion of the cargo carrying space be used to send more food to the Netherlands for the consumption of the D~utch people, who have been in dire straits and who have recently been obliged to slaughter their cattle in large numbers fof the wvant of grain. "I dlo not knowv what my govern ment intendls to (do about the propos ail," Minister Van Rappardl said to night. "I havre communicated it to my foreign office and aon awaiting a reply. Perhaps Germany is being consultedl. We are in the position of an anxious neutral trying to serve all friends of the Netherlands. We must have grain from the United States and wve must nave coal and iron from Germany. In return for the coal and iron we receive from Germany we export to that country some perishable goods we (10 not needl for ourselves." Satisfied. Minister Van Rappard was asked as to the recent annoaincement that the United States is reqluiring from neutral countries that commodlities shipped from the United States to neutrals shall not fall into enemy ha ndls. "The State D)epartment," he replied, "is satisfied on that point so far as my country is concerned. Everything shipped from the United States to the Netherlands is consigned to the Neth erlands government, and my govern ment oflicially sees to its distribution. Nothing from here reaches Germany through my country.". --- Metcalf Succeeds Smith. Richmond, Va., Aug. 20.--John C.
