STOMACH ILLS
ENDANGER RACE
Organ Called Hotbed Of Disease
by Medical Authorities.

1t is generally conceded by medical
authorities that considerably over one
half of the population of the United
States is suffering from one ailment or
another, and of this great number of suf.
fering people the majority portion are
victims of stomach trouble.
Through many years of practical ex.
periments, with the past medical knowl-
edge of European chemists at his dispo.
sal, Joseph Won Trimbach, the noted
chemist and health authority, discovered
the formula now known as Tanlac. The
ingredients for this Master Medicine
were gathered from the remotest parts OF
the world. Tanlac is purely vegetable
product and is compounded from roots,
herbs, flowers and barks which have
been tested for their therapeutic proper
ties. He now firmly believes he has
found the solution to the grave problem,
which has become an important one for
the present and future of our great race.
That there is no question as to the
merit of Tanlac is demonstrated by the
thousands of testimonials to the benefits
derived from this wonderful reconstruct
i've tonic which are voluntarily given by
men and women in all walks OF life and
from every section.
"Modern ills the title under which
stomach troubles and its complications
are now unusually classed, is running the
lives Of a vast army of people every year.
Catarrh, which begins in the head and
extends through the throat to the
stomach, is the usual form in which
stomach trouble is contracted. The
delicate mucous membrane lining of the
stomach becomes coated from catarrhal
secretions, sand food cannot digest In
stead, it ferments, forming gases, and is
the cause of intense pains in the stomach
and abdomen after eating. Constipation
usually follows and wrecks the entire
nervous system.
The victim of stomach trouble be-
comes nervous, melancholy, has an ir
regular appetite, and attacks of head
aches. Often the eyesight becomes af-
fected in cases of stomach disorder
Relief can be found in Tanlac, the ideal
reconstructive tonic, appetizer, invigor-
ant and rebuilder of torn down tissues.
Tanlac is being especially introduced
in Cloverport at Weddings Drug Store,
and in Stephensport at Shellman's Drug
Store, where the Tanlac Men explain its
merits.

Took Il as a Joke.

There is story of MIR. Disraeli at
the time Of his extremely bumptious
youth when he had Just returned from
his travels In the east, As young
man. much under thirty, he met Lord
Melbourne. who was then prime min
lister, at dinner. Lord Melbourne pro
ceeded to discourse on the eastern ques
ton. but instead Of listening TO the
prime minister with the respect which
he ought young Disraeli said, 1T seems
to me that your lordship has taken
your knowledge of the east from The
Arabian Nights"
Some prime ministers would have
snubbod the young man severely. Lord
Melbourne was not of that kind. He
rubbed his hands with great cheerful
ness aud said to the young man, And
IA devilish good place to take 1t from"

He Got Valuable information.

The story is told Of the times of
Aretas Blood and the old Manchester
locomotive works that student came
to Mr.. Blood once and wanted to study
the business Of locomotive building in
his vacation days. The student came
well recommended, and Mr.. Blood,
who never had much use for these
tech" people, sent him down to the
boiler shop and placed him in charge
of the old foreman. The old man took
the tech man around, and in the
course of the inspection of the shop
they came across one boiler Oh the in
side of which was Il man at work.
How does that man get out?" in
quired the tech man.
ooh" said the venerable pilot, "he
doesn't get out. We always count
upon losing at least one man in build.

WORK IS HEALTH.
IdIeness is Often the Cause of Human
Disease and Decay.

Work is not the curse nor the Attic
ton that some people think it is. When
taken IN proper doses it is the best Of
medicines. 1t is now being prescribed
for many forms of inyalidism, such as
heart disease, Bright's disease, merry
BUSINESS and particularly for insanity
The lack of work is often the cause
of many chronic maladies, and it is o.
wise physician who can determine
when one needs work instead of rest
and in prescribing the remedy produce
no unpleasant situations.
About the most unhealthful person,
as well as the most unhappy and use
less, is the person with nothing to do.
Work is a dispeller of fears. 1t is the
exercise that is as essential to the body
and mind as are food and air. 1t Is
only when work is carried to excess
that it becomes injurious, as In the
case with food. rest and all good things.
The ideal Of a healthy. happy life is
no longer a world where work is not
necessary and life is one grand sweet
song Of idleness. Life is activity: IN
the broad sense it Is woodwork that
produces and entails sacrifice. 1t is not
less work that we need. but work In
the right proportions and under the
right conditions. Such work is health.

Entering the temple, they pass into

q dome of gold, beautifully carved and
literally incrustei with precious stones.
Two similar coverings lie below them,

RADIANT HEAT.
n 10 Not Real Heat, but Only Form
Of Wave Motion.

When fire is lighted it throws on
what we call heat rays or waves.
These waves are very much like the
waves of light which come from light
or fire or the air waves which produce
sounds. The rays of light and heat
which come from the sun are like the
rays Of light and heat from a fire.
Heat is of two kinds-heat proper,
which is resident in the body, and ra-
diant heat, which is the kind which
comes to us from the sun or from
Ere. This radiant heat is not heat at
all, but form of wave motion thrown
out by the vibrations in the ether. The
heat we feel is the sensation produced
upon our skins when it comes in con
tact with the waves created by the fire
Heat was formerly thought to be an
actual substance, but we know now
that radiant heat is known to be the
energy of heat transferred to the ether
which fills all Of space and is in all
bodies also. The hot body sets the par
ticlcS Of ether in vibration, and this vi
brating motion in the form of waves
travels in all directions.
When these vibrations strike against
our skin they produce a heat sensation.
Striking other objects these vibrations
may produce instead of a heat sensa-
ton either chemical action or lumi-
Mostly. This Is determined by the
length of the vibratory rays in each
case.-Philadelphia Press.

DENMARK ONCE A POWER.

THE KINGS COURIERS.
EngIand's "Silver Greyhounds" Have
Hard Work and Poor Pay.

FIdTu NOTH anu TooT
The most exciting job that can be
held in the United Kingdom is that Of
kings messenger. He is charged with
the delicate and in war time danger
Gus duty Of carrying important state
papers i'm cases when 1t would be Ell
Their unwise or impossible to use the
telegraph or the postal service.
During war the kings messenger has
nearly as difficult task as has the
dispatch rider. who Is actually at the
front. He must be continually on the
lookout for spies, and 1t is quite within
the probabilities that the steamer on
which he Is travelling may be stopped
by an enemy vessel and his valuable
papers taken from him.
Owing to the fact that they wear a
badge consisting Of silver greyhound
surmounted by a crown, kings mes
sengers are nicknamed silver grey
hounds" and indeed they often have
to initiate that breed of dog in swift
ness and sureness Of scent. To qualify
for a messengership many things are
needed. The candidate must be a man
of first rate education, Of excellent
family and a good linguist.
Considering the qualifications re-
quired. the salaries of the "silver grey.
hounds are by no means large. The
foreign service messengers receive re-
muneration ranging from $3.50 to So
600 year, while those employed on
homa servica pet from Sf5O IN 81 005 a

WHEN 4 SHIP TURNS TURTLE.
Often the Bottom of the Vessel is
Blown Out as She Goes Down.


To turn turtle" means in nautical
language that ship rolls too heavily,
fails to recover herself and after a
brief period on her beam ends turns
topsy turvy. so that her keel points
skyward. Then. of course, she goes
down.
Frequently the compressed air i'm
prisoned in her hull blows her bottom
out as she goes down, or If she is

results.
As rule, ships turn turtle because
they are burdened with too much top

Rarely does It happen that there are
any survivors. but there is one notable
exception In the case of the battleship
Captain, which was lost after this fash.
Ion in the bay of Biscay. In her case
exactly three minutes elapsed from the
time she first turned turtle until she
finally sank, and forty of her crew of
600 men clambered up her side as she
rolled over ana on to her keel. OF
these eighteen men were eventually
rescued and We're able TO describe later
on precisely what occurred. -Pearson's
