England Is Interested
in Retaliation Feature
of New Revenue Bill

London, September 6.-Officials of the
British foreign officN have not yet had
time to consider the general revenue bill
as affecting the various blockade ac-
tivities but news of the passage of the
bill through the United States Senate
last night excited considerable interest.
One official of the foreign office said
today that the department fully recog-
nized the Importance of this legislation
but any statement as to the attitude of
the British government must await the
return of Lord Robert Cecil minister of
war trade. 1t is expected that one re-
suit of the action of Congress will be
to hasten a reply to the Washington pro-
test against the British blacklist.

'Tanlac certainly is fine" she contin-
I'd. II have actually gained sixteen
funds In weight on two bottles and I'm
pw able to cook for house full of peo-
e and do all my other work besides.
or % years L suffered with nervous ind-
estion of the worst sort and was never
BILE to get anything to relieve me oefof e
liking Tanlac. Everything l would eat
urt me and could eat no meats or veg
tables at all. The pressure from the
gas on my stomach would almost smother
me at times and l would simply have to
fight for breath. My folks would nave
to rub and work with me and several
times / thought 1 would never speak
again. L suffered with pains in my Shout
ders and limbs until 1 couldn't rest and
was so weak 1 would have to lie down
three or four times a day. My back and
head hurt me dreadfully. I lost weight
and strength until l was almost a total
wreck and could do none of my work at
all.
After spending lots and lots of money
for other medicines, without getting any
relief I decided to try Tanlac and it's the
truth, began picking up at once. am
eating just anything l want now and l
haven't had one of those awful smother
ing spells since l started on Tanlac. I'm
not nervous any more and 1 sleep fine
every night. It's perfectly wonderful how
quickly Tanlac relieved me of every pain
and bad symptom that troubled me al
these years. I'm only too glad to give
you my Endorsement; maybe it will cause
others to take Tanlac and get relief from
their troubles like 1 did from mine"
The public is warned against buying
Tanlac from any dealer excepting duly
authorized agents. Genuine Tanlac bears

Slandered Him and
Sues for Big Damage


Atlanta. September SRA w. Partin,
former guard at the federal penitentiary
here, today brought suit for $4,000
damages against Thomas J. White, a
prisoner who was a New York provision
dealer and who is serving a year and a
day. Partin was suspended pending in
vestigation of charges by White that the
guard did not spend $50 entrusted to him
as White directed. Partin, who former
ly was in the interior department at
Washington, stated in his petition that
Whites allegations are untrue and detri-
mental to his character. Efforts to serve
notification of suit on White today were
futile.

sent to serve the papers. The sheriff
later announced, however, that notice of
the suit has been left at the prison and
that under the Georgia law this consti-
tuted service.
