Mrs. Katherine Meyer
Finds Relief From
Debility in Tanlac

Louisville. KY, July 22- Many
women suffer from sluggishness
and depression without being
able to find relief from a condition
which they know to be unnatur-
al. One of them who did find
relief is Mrs. Katherine Meyer,
of 1915 High street, this city.
She said recently that she had
recovered from a condition of
nervous debility through the
use of Tanlac, the peerless prep
a ration.
Il was rundown and felt tired
if made the least exertion. y
she said, Il was melancholy and
nervous. Any unusual noise
startled me. My digestion was
poor, and | couldn't sleep well.
Finally | became interested
in Tanlac and sent to the drug
store for a bottle of it. AS soon
as | began taking it got better.
Now sleep soundly, and nave
recovered from my nervousness
and depression"
Mrs. Meyers experience is not
unusual. Women often suffer
from . tired, sluggish feeling
without knowing the why of it.
They are often subject, too, t.
depression and m elanch oily
Where Mrs. Mayer found relief,
others may. She is one of hun
dreds who have given voluntary
testimony to the value of Tanlac,

Making Good at

The following is what The In
dependent, a daily paper of st.
Petersburg, has to say of the APP
pointment of w. M. Dishman as
Judge of The Municipal Court of
that city:
wv. M. Dishman, one of the
leading lawyers of the local bar,
today was appointed judge of the
municipal court to succeed Judge
Roy V. Sellers, whose time has
expired. Judge Dishman will
qualify at once and expects to
hold court tomorrow morning for
the first time.
Judge Dishman's appointment
was generally popular as is he
and the commissioners feel that
he is well qualified to be Judge
of the city court. He is a lawyer
of ability and has the judicial
temperament to a marked de-
gree. He came here from Ken
lucky and has built up a good
practice. Judge Dishman has
served as CITY Judge on several
occasions when Judge Sellers was
out of the city and his decisions
in those cases he tried attracted
the attention of the commission
ers. Judge Jellers retires from
the bench with the respect Of the
people and his record has been
good"

"Swat the Fly" Campaign

The injunction to swat the
fly has become general all over
the country. To this in the last
few years has been added the adj
ditional inj JUNCTION to swat him
early. Spring fly campaigns are
now a feature of the public health
work in many of our cities. An
especially effective popular move
ment in this direction is now
being carried on in Detroit, un
der the direction of the local
board OF health. Taking advan-
tage of the human fondness for
rivalry and competition, the boys
of the different wards and sec
tons of the city are being organ
lied under one chief junior sani-
tary inspector and twenty-four
junior sanitary inspectors. I'm
der each Inspector are from five
TO seven captains. Under each
captain are from two to seven
ieutenants. This furnishes a
force of twenty-four inspectors,
l25 captains and GOO lieutenants.
Each lieutenant has as many pa
trolman rs he can enlist. In all,
over 1000 boys are enrolled in
this movement. Each of these
young health workers is provided
with suitable and imposing
badge. Each lieutenant is pro-
vided with q map Of his district
which he returns, showing all
manure piles, uncovered garbage
receptacles, breeding places for
flies and other insanitary condi-
lions in his district. Restaur-
ants, meat markets, milk depots,
bakeries, etc. are visited at in
tervalS, and 4 report is made on
all the flies which can be counted
i'm a certain number of minutes.
The reports are all tabulated on Il
large map at headquarters. SO
that a comparison is always pos
sible between different districts.
The conduct of the work and the
discipline of the Junior force ere
as far as possible left in the
hands of the boys themselves.
This movement is an interesting
illustration of the growing tend
ency on the part of health officers
to utilize the public and to work
along recognized psychologist
lines. Probably every boy of
from II TO Ii desires above all
things to be a policeman and to
wear a badge. lfhe cannot fight
crooks, says The JoHrH0i 81 the
I.Imerieon .Hedicdi dissertation,
the next best thing is fighting
flies. If the enthusiasm engen-
dered by Several generations of
"Old Cap. Collier" dime novels
can be utilized in fighting flies or
better still, in fighting the filthy
conditions under which flies
breed. the public health propa-
ganda will have gained a valua-
'ble ally.

Human Cancer Research

On July 18th, Johnson's Path
illogical Laboratory for Cancer
Research, located in Kansas City
completed the tenth year of re-
search in human cancer, having
reviewed more than fifteen thous-
and cases in this time. 1t has re-
manned for this Kansas City in
stitution to attain the nation 5
greatest progress in the diagnos-
is and prognosis of this disease.
Johnson's Pathological Labora-
tory for Cancer Research bases
its Investigations and conclusions
upon the proposition that cancer
is a constitutional disease-neither
a vegetable nor animal parasite.
Therefore its researches are ex-
clusively clinical; that is, deal
ing with cases of human cancer
coming under its examination, of
practically all varieties, locations
and stages of development. 1t
is proven practice instead of I'M
demonstrated theory, hence the
laboratory review is actual and
practical, instead of being build
ed upon theoretical reserch with
the neoplasms of mice, rats,
guiueapigs, rabbits and chickens.
The determination of Johnson s
Pathological Laboratory for Can
Ger Research, covering period
of ten years in reviewing more

man Cancer. are as follows:
/. Cancer is a chronic alkaline
intoxication caused by the
retention of body wastes.
2. The fixation of the mineral
alkaIies in the tissues by re-
tanned carbonic acid is the
cause of the alkalinity.
3. Cancer is a constitutional
disease.
4. The location of the cancer,
Gus tumor is determined by
chronic irritation.
5. This chronic irritation ma,
be direct or reflex.
6. Cancer is disease of mid
die life and old age.
z. Cancer is not hereditary.
8. Cancer is not contagious.
3. The cancerous tumor i!
merely a local manifestation

to generous growth.

ThePresidential Situation


More than 4 dozen States, ac-
cordlng to present indications,
will enter favorite sons in the
free-for-all race for the Republi-
can nomination for President
next year. With this early and
numerous outcrOpping of candi-
dates, some Of them actual and
others potential, there are astute
politicians who are already declar-
ing that the nominee will be- an
outsider-a dark horse. At this
time, these students of politics
say, the best choice Of the pro-
bable dark horses is Charles Ey-
ans hughes, associate justice of
the United States Supreme Court
Mr.. Justice Hughes Ispeciiical-
/ ly has announced that he is not
to be considered in any way as
an aspirant. This undoubtedly
preclude his being put forward
as New York's favorite son in
the party convention. However
it would hardly operate to stop
a stampede in his direction should
the convention in its deliberation
find that he is the logical person
to unite the broken party factions
Likewise. it is not probable
that Mr.. Hughes would refuse
a nomination rendered him in this
manner on a silver platter.
Out in Illinois the friends of
Representative James K. Mann,
the minority floor leader in the
House of Representative, have
calculated that it is not at all es-
sential that he go to the conven-
ton as a fayorite son of his State.
1t would be vastly more TO his
advantage, in present Republic
can political conditions, to be a
second choice in several States
than first choice i'm only one.
There are. Mr.. Mann's friends
despite the growing prospects
that Senator Lawrence \. Sher-
man will 90 10 the convention
with the Endorsement of Illinois
are going right ahead in their
efforts to cultivate 4 good feeling
for him in other States As we'll as
in his home State. A few COM
plimentary ballots for Mr.. Sher-
man, it is urged, will show the
futility of futher voting for him.
Then the delegates will turn to
Mr.. Mann.
Another formidable dark horse
candidate is likely to be Col.
Roosevelt. Even should he be
eliminated as 4 favorite son in
the New York State primaries,
there is nothing to keep the con-
vention from nominating him
should it take a notion that way.
In politics today. as never be-
fore, there is great uncertainty.
Conditions change almost over
night. Several months ago
President Wilson'S popularity
was thought to be at low ebb.
Republicans We're hopeful and
jubilant, and rs a result of this
feeling there began to be dis
cussed the various leaders in the
party as timber for the presiden-
tial nomination neXtyear Presi-
dent Wilson's prospects have
since materially changed until
they are again rising toward
food. Still the many aspirants
and possibilities for the Repubi-
can prize have not grown less.
There is no chance that any
man will have ON the first ballot
approximately a majority of the
delegates. 1t may require many
ballots to develop the strongest
candidate.
