PLAIN CLOTHES' OFFICER TALKS
 ABOUT TROUBLE
X-Ray Brought Into Service But Revealed Nothing. Gains 10 Pounds
 On Tanlac

The Birmingham district has no more faithful or efficient peace of ficer than Vernon Long of 2504 Ave nue G, Ensley, who is a member of the "plain clothes" squad at the Ens- ley station. For years he patrolled a beat and has been a terror to all law breakers ever since he became a mem Der of the force, for he is known as a man who is true to his oath of office and plays no favorites where duty is concerned
 Mr. Long had enjoyed excellent health until about a year and half ago. being of powerful physique and tipped the scales at IFS pounds. But. like so many other men who lead ac- tive lives in this day and time. he all at once, began to lose vigor and strength, With no apparent cause he commenced falling off in weight and instead of the former lively step, he found it an effort to discharge his du ties.
 Here is what he had to say in a conversation with Tanlac represen- tative at D. w. Morris & Co.'S drug store. Avenue E and Seventeenth street, Friday:
 'The doctors made IS different ex- amina tions and took several X-ray pho- tographs. but never did locate my trou- ble, but when I began taking Tanlac it seemed to take right hold and all ready I have gained 10 pounds of solid flesh. I believe before I get through with Tanlac will weigh a great deal more. for it looks like the more take the better off I am.
 'r was in a pretty bad shape. Noth- ing ate gave me any strength, and 1x.f& l-a ,.I I 1.x.. and I couldn't sleep good at all. hard 1y knew what it was to be without a headache.
 q felt so tired and worn out in the mornings I dreaded to get out of bed and that same kind of feeling all through the day totally unfitted me for duty. I was getting in worse shape every day. it seemed, and I got to where only weighed 139 pounds. just what I weighed when a 14-year- old boy Then began to get really wor- ried about my condition, as my regular weight was IFS pounds.
 q had heard a great deal about Tanlac, so I bought a bottle and set out to give it thorough trial. I have taken seven bottles of it, and have not been disappointed one bit. If it had not have done me worlds of good I would not have kept on buying it. The money I have paid out for this medicine I consider the best investment ever made, for it has toned me up like nothing else ever did. My food all nourishes me now, and I have more get-up- and get about me now than have had in mighty long time. I sleep good and don't have that tired mo- account feeling about me any longer
 T am mighty glad to be able to say these good things about Tanlac. for what it has done for me has con vinced me that it is the best tonic on earth.'
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham ex- clusively by Patton-Pope Drug Co.,, and Jacobs Drug Store. In Ensleys by b w. Morris Drug Co.,; Bessemer, Peg ram Patton Drug Co.. North Birming- ham, Walker Drug Co.,. and Pratt City, Gale Drug Go. It is also on sale at exclusive agencies in all parts of the state.--Adv.

 NEW ORLEANS INTERESTS

NEW ORLEANS INTERESTS
 In this connection Mayor Behrman de- clared that a great mistake had been made by practically all ports except New Orleans in allowing their water fronts to pass into private ownership.
 New Orleans, he said, not only has not parted with title to its harbor prop ~ty, but through it's government has ut ed the common property for general com merce by the construction and operation of wharves and terminal facilities for use at minimum cost.
 When the capacious warehouse now un- der construction in New Orleans is com pleted, Mayor Behrman said the city will become the greatest deposit market for cotton in the world.
 Col. c. McD. Townsend, U. S. A., de- scribed the German system of waterways. In Germany, he said. waterways were developed first and factories lined their banks, while in America manufacturing plants were built on railway spurs mak- ing preliminary handling of freight shipped by water too expensive.
 Former Governor A. O. Eberhart of Minnesota blamed municipalities for neg lect in development of waterways
 The annual report of Senator Joseph F. Ransdell of Louisiana. president of the congress, urged legislation to pre- vent railroads from cutting rates at water competitive points.

FINANCES IN GOOD SHAPE

eThe financial situation of this coun- try" he continued, 'has never been so strong and favorable as now. Our finan- cial resources are the greatest in our his- tory ,and our banking system, through the creation of the federal reserve system is now the strongest in the world In every respect the economic and financial condition of the country is extraordinarily sound. It is greater than that of any other nation and if we use our resources and our opportunities intelligently and wisely, we shall establish the prosperity of this nation upon an impregnab,e foun- dation for many years to come"
 In that connection the Secretary'S re- port showed the stock of gold in the United States on November l. 1915, was $2. .19S, ,113762, compared with ,S05,S76. 5SO on January and that it is by far the largest sum in gold ever held by one country. Indications were. he added, that the pres ent stock would be greatly augmented.
 The report reviews at length operations of the treasury department for the year, Mir McAdoo's deposits of gold in the At lanta Dallas and Richmond federal re- serve banks, and his decision to make re- serve banks government depositaries and fiscal agents.
 Legislation recommended included $50,- 900 for a second Pan-American financial conference in Washington in 1917 and $25,- UU0 Tor the use or the united States SeC- tion of the International High Commits sion on Uniformity, of Laws for the Two Americas
 The method of legislation for public buildings in an omnibus bill received the Secretary'ss sdisapproval and he asked that it be discontinued. Needless waste of public money, he said, will be avoided if Congress will hereafter not authorize the acquisition of public building sites until authorizato is made for the buildings to go on the sites. He asked that the Sec retary of the Treasury be authorized to fit the building to the city and not to make it just as imposing as the sum appro- priated under the present system will per- init.
 Mir McAdoo asked for two cruising cut ters for the coast guard service on the Pacific coast to cost $700.00O; a harbor cutter for New York to cost $125.000, and one for San Francisco to cost $50, 1000. He says that in plans for national defense the coast guard will have important as- signment and that authorizations for the service will be valuable from a military standpoint.
 Reviewing the o1eomargarine and whisky frauds of the year the report again recommends changes in the oleo law to reduce the invitation to commit similar frauds.

suffering in this country as well as in Europe" said the secretary. Our indus trial situation was for a time seriously hurt and the cotton growing states of the south sustained heavy losses through de- clines in the price of cotton. Every power of the government was exerted to mitigate the situation and I believe it is not in- exact to say that but for the active agency of the government in protecting and conserving the business interests of the country during that critical period grave disaster would have resulted.
 Ut is pleasure to acknowledge that the efforts of the government were sec- onded and supported by the earnest and patriotic cooperation of the business ln- terests of the country. During the year there has been steady, healthy, forward movement in every line of activity, until now prosperity has been firmly established throughout the country"
 Mir McAdoo included letters from mer- cantile agencies to support his statement. and quoted figures on railroad and other business operations to show increased ae- tiVitieS.
