STEERS HEIFERS COWS BULLS CALVES PREDICTS DEFEAT OF DEFENSE PLAN IN STRONG ARTICLE Congress is likely to side-step President Wilson's recommendations for increased naval and military armament at this session and such action will be in the best interests of the United States. This is the belief expressed by S. Edgar Nicholson, editor of the American FrieLd in an editorial in this week's issue of that periodical. The article is entitled, "The Preparedness Program." While arguing for delay in legisla tion for the increase of armament, the editor declares that the American Friend assumes that as its own plea does not "abate one iota of our belief that the '-hole preparedness program is uncalled for and will do more to threaten the permanent peace of the United States than any other act we can perform." Mr. Nicholson writes that many Congressmen including certain best friends of the president in advocating a waiting policy argue that the United States will be in a more advantageous position to promote world-wide peace if she waits until the close of the war to adopt a program. The editorial is one of the strongest of its kind printed in the American Friend. EMPEROR GOES EAST BERLIN, Jan. 19 Emperor William has gone to the Balkan theatre of war. A historic meeting between the Kaiser and King Ferdinand has just taken place in Nish, the "war capital' of Servia. SUES ON MORTGAGE, Robert and Grace Elliott are made defendants in a suit brought by the Richmond Loan and Savings company as a complaint on a note, alleged to be overdue, asking the court to foreclose the mortgage on property. .The demand is for $1,581. v

GRAY RUSHES SPECIAL ORDER TO POSTMASTER

Postmaster Beck received a telgram from Congressman Finly Gray this afternoon as follows: "Require each auto carrier to employ helper immediately so that he can make delivery of mail as early in the day as under the old serviceWire me at once this will be done." Postmaster Beck, after reading the telegram, said that every rural route carrier out of the city has been hiring an assistant since the first of the week and in most cases, patrons are receiving mail earlier than they did under the old system while only comparatively a few are receiving mail later than they did before. Follow on Criticism. It is believed that the effort on the part of Finly Gray to insist that Post master Beck use every method possible to make the new system as effici ent as the old one, has been inspired by the criticism that Mr. Gray has re ceived at the hands of the rural route patrons of the county who have peti tioned the postal authorities at Washington for a return to the old system. Similar Instructions were sent to the postmaster at Fountain City and the rural route carrier out of that place will be forced to hire a substitute until he becomes better acquainted with the work. "We hear of very few complaints now." said Mr. Beck. "The new car riers are becoming acquainted with the routes and are not having much trouble in getting the mail around al most as early as on the old service." How long the local rural route carriers will be required to hire substitutes on their routes will be determined wholly by their ability to get around their routes on schedule time. SUES FOR PARTITION Asking the court to partition the estate of Olive Coddington, deceased, among the heirs and legatees, John Y. Coddington, husband, filed suit against his daughters, Hillie Dana and Olive Hoak, the German-American Trust and Savings company and others interested in the property. The estate of Mrs. Coddington, valued at $13,000, will be partitioned among the three daughters, as well as the husband, according to a court decree several days ago. The will of Mrs. Coddington was refused probate in circuit court when John Y. Coddington made no contention against the claims of the three daughters who desired an interest in the estate. VISIT DAYTON SHOW Although the committee had hopes of reaching a definite conclusion yesterday regarding an automobile show in Richmond this spring, A. N. Chamness, chairman of the joint committee of the old trails association, the "automobile club and the Commercial club, announced today that final action would be taken next Monday evening at a meeting of the committee in the Commercial club rooms. Members of the committee will go to Dayton this week to visit the exhibits there to get an idea of what could be done along similar lines in Richmond.

In the May 25, 1912, is'.e of tl Journal of the American Medical A sociation appeared this st 1 -merit coi cerning calcium (lime) medication I the treatment of pulmonary tuberci iosis (consumption): "Under the systematic, continue! and persistent regime of calcium mi similation, Vsn Giescn has seen a nuni ber of his patients improve, undera an exudation or partial consolidation! in the lung, which then resolving would appear to contribute to the wal ing off and closing of the lesionsf Hand In hand with this course of events, the sputum clears up of tuber! cle bacilli, which finally disappear, and the patients are discharged with heal ed pulmonary tuberculosis." Ethical medical journals seldonf speak so positively about a remedia agent, yet tbis testimony coincide: with that from many consumptive: who hare secured like results througq the use of Eckerman's Alterative. Since calcium is a constit-tent of thi remedy for pulmonary tuberculosa and allied throat and bronchial affex tions, its healing power may in sora measure be attributed to the manne in which this element is so combined with other ingredients as to be vasiH assimilated by the average person ami it does not irritate the stomach. Eckman's Alterative contains no opi ates, narcotics or habit-forming drugs so it is safe to try. If your druggis is out of it. ask him to order, or sent direct to Eckman Laboratory, Philadelphia.
