LANSING DECLINES
TO DISCUSS TOUR
others Intimate, However, That the
Mission of House is Important
and Delicate One.

Washington, Dec. 21.-Secretary
Lansing tonight declined to add any
thing to the announcement by Col.
House that he was going to Europe a:
the request of the president and Sec
retary of state.
From other official sources, however,
came the intimation that the interna-
tional questions at the capitals of bel
Iigerent powers were Of such al ex-
tremely delicate nature that they could
not be discussed 1t was suggested
that Col. Houses statement should be
taken at its face value and questions
as to whether he would make formal
inquiries concerning the prospects OF
peace elected no response.
Col. House, VINO is the presidents S
close personal friend and adviser
made an extended tour Of European
capitals last spring and talked with
high government officials of Germany,
France and England There was much
speculation at the time as to the OBJ
ject of the trip and the circulation of
varied reports caused the colonel to
deny that he acted as the personal
representative of President Wilson or
had gone on a mission of peace. He
said he travelled as a private citizen,
but indicated that as a loyal citizen
should do, he would communicate such
information of moment as had come to
him to the president.
Later he had long conference with
the president and was understood to
have given MIN comprehensive re-
view of the state of opinion abroad as
he observed it. What he reported never
was revealed, but it was known that
his picture of the situation did not al
ter the presidents belief that the time
then was not ripe for any step from
Washington towards initiating peace
movement.

they hardly expected her to regain her
strength as she has"
Mrs. Monts, when interviewed, gave
the following statement Of praise for
Tanlac:
u will try to tell you of the benefit
Tanlac has been to me. l was so weak
l could hardly, walk any distance.
When l tried to work, even at light
tasks, l became very nervous. l was
lcstless at night.
Before l took Tanlac, what l ate
caused me intense suffering, so much
that l did not care to eat. Now, since
taking Tanlac, l enjoy my meals as l
once did; 1 can sleep we'll and l feel
like getting up when morning comes.
l hope Tanlac will do for others wha,
it has done for me-"
Mrs. Craps said, regarding her con-
dition and that of ner husband, as
follows:
"Mr Craps and myself both are
taking Tanlac, and We have been great
ly benefited. 1 have suffered much
with chronic appendicitis and kidney
trouble. My back and sides frequent
ly panied me intensely. My husband
suffered with loss of appetite and gen.
eral debility.
81 can not praise Tanlac too highly,
for it certainly has proven an inval-
liable remedy for my family. My con-
dition is much better in every way
than before 1 began taking Tanlac, and
my husband, too, has found it of great
benefit"
Mr.. Meetze's endorsement of Tanlac,
previously published, said he had
gained ten pounds in three weeks
while taking Tanlac.
Tanlac, the premier preparation, is
sold at Glider & Weeks, Newberry;
