Coffman, field veterinary for the state, •who has been working night and day in all parts of the county since last week, inoculating herds and assist ing farmers in preventing the epi demic getting the upper hand. “I think by next week I will have been able to get to all uninfected herds,” said Dr. Coffman today.

E. HODGES Employe of Forsyth Chair Company Tells Why He Will Never Again Be Without Dreco—lnterest ng Story. J. E. Hodges, who resides at 119 j Center street, Winston-Salem, is per haps one of the most popular em ployees of the Forsyth Chair Company. He is a member of the Junior Order and a number of other fraternal and social orga’ .izations. Recently Mr. Hodges was troubled with a severe form of kidney trouble combined with indigestion, loss of sleep and rheumatism, pains in the back and limbs. A friend told him about the wonderful new herbal medi cine called Dreco which is now being introduced in this section and prevail ed upon him to give it a trial. This is what he says after only one bottle of Dreco. I i 111 “My pans and stomach trouble are all gone. So is the kidney disorder. I made a mistake in not getting another bottle as soon as the first gave out —but I’ll never do that again, for Dreco put new life into me, all right! I want all my friends to try it’.’ No two cases of stomach trouble kidney disorder or similar ills seem to be exactly alike. Some will re quire more Dreco than others before the sufferer can say “I am cured at last!” It is, therefore, well always to keep a good supply of this medi sine on hand at all times, if only as a matter of precaution. Dreco is sold and recommended tn Americus by Americus Drug Co. adv CREAM FOR CATARRH OPENS UP NOSTRILS j Tells How To Get Quick Relief ; from Head-Colds.

QUITS CATHARTICS— INTERNAL BATHS RELIEVED PERMANENTLY. Mr. Joseph A. Weis, Hotel Vendome, Washington, D. C„ writes Tyrrell’s Hy gienic Institute of New York, as fol lows: • On the 15th of June, 1915, I pur chased a ‘J. B. L. Cascade.’ The re sults it has produced are simply mar velous. For 20 years I used cathartics but have used nothing but the Cascade tor almost a month. I feel like a new man; I want to be pleasant to every body. Before I used the Cascade, I was a grouch. Did not like anybody ai.-d could not be pleasant.” If you bathe internally with the “J. B. L. Cascade” you will find yourself always bright, confident and capable. Po'sonous waste in the lower intes tine makes us bilious, blue, dull and nervous. Internal baths are Nature’s own cure for constipation —just anti septic warm water properly applied. Drugs force Nature —the “J. B. L. Cas cade” gently assists her. It is the invention of Chas. A. Tyr relL M.

RED CROSS UNIT FROM PHILIPPINES IN SIBERIA VLADIVOSTOCK, (Correspond ence of The Associated Press.) —A Red Cross unit from the Philippine Islands has arrived for service in Siberia. Some members of the unit will leave in the near future on the fifth relief train for the interior, to distribute winter garments to the needy along the trans-Siberian railway, and par ticularly to railway employes who have kept their posts under most try ing circumstances, and in spite of the fact that their pay in some in stances is three months in arrears. DRINK A GLASS OF REAL HOT WATER BEFORE BREAKFAST. Says we will both look and feel clean, sweet and fresh and avoid illness. I Sanitary science has of late made ' rapid strides with results that are of untold blessing to humanity. The lat ; est application of its untiring research i is the recommendation that it is as necessary to attend to internal sanita tion of the drainage system of the hu man body as it is to the drains of the house. Those of us who ar accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise, splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom ach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the sys tem each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stag nant matter. Everyone, whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stom ach, liver and bowels the previous day’s indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire i alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully in vigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the phosphated hot water is quietly extracting a large vol ume of water from the blood and get ting ready for a thorough flushing of all the inside organs. The millions of people who are both ered with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble, rheum ;<lc stiffness; others who have sallow skins, blood disorders and sickly complexions are urged to get a quarter pound of lime stone phosphate from tlie drug store. This will cost very little, but is suffi cient to make anyone a pronounced crank on the subject of internal san itation. ITALIANS RAISE U.S.FLAG AGAIN AND APOLOGIZE WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—Rear Ad miral Niblack, commanding American naval forces in the Adriatic, has in formed the navy department that the action of the Italian authorities in hauling down the American flag on fee s'earner Dinara was due to a mis understanding, and that the Italian commander had apologized and or dered the flag restored. The incident occurred at the Port of Jelsa on Jan. 16. Admiral Niblack’s despatch said: “The Italian government has been authorized by the Adriatic naval com mittee to requisition all Austro-Hun garian merchant vessels to be control led by the Allied maritime council, i The refusal of some of the crew on particular ships to go to sea under the Italian flag is attributed to ill ' feeling toward the Italian people. i “The Italian authorities had not . been advised as to the decision of the | naval committee in connection with the Dinara. The United States and I Allied flags were hauled down by the Italian senior officer and the Italian colors hoisted, the ship not being seiz ed. After the matter was referred to , the Italian senoir officer he stated ' that the act was done through igno i rance and after expressing regret, the United States and Allied flags were again hoisted.” Cotton Should Bring 50 jCents—W elbo rn ATLANTA, Jan. 30.—Just back from Jacksonville, where he went to con fer with officials of the Jacksonville branch of the federal reserve bank, M. B, Wellborn, chairman of the board of directors of the bank, made it cleat today that the federal reserve bank is ccntirraing to extend the usual re discount accommodations to farmers on paper secured by cotton warehouse receipts. “According to the law of supply and demand,” said Mr. Wellborn, “cotton ought to bring a better price than it is bringing now. With four short crops in succession, and with the Eu ropean countries destitute of clothing, my judgment is that cotton ought to be worth at least 50 cents a pound.” ~ Standard MAKING AN UNEXPECTED DIS I’OSAL OF S6OOO WORTH OF COTTON GOODS FOR S4OOO : : ; As you can readily figure, that means way under regular prices for full standard, perfect goods. 3000 Yards Best Percales at 29c.

Postoffice Asks for Pointers on Service WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.—The post office department has sent out a cir cular letter to more than 15.000 busi ness men, firms, boards of trade and chambers of commerce throughout the country, inviting suggestions and constructive criticisms which may tend to the improvement of the postal service. “The postoffice department desires to maintain the postal service at a high standard of efficiency,” says the letter, “and make it meet the neces sities and requirements of the public. Notwithstanding the extraordinary conditions prevailing during the war, the department has attempted to do that which no other country at war has undertaken, namely, to conduct the postal service without curtailment or restriction of facilities or conven iences to the public and at the same time perform the numerous additional duties and war activities imposed upon it.
