"I Eat Like a Wolf"
Says Munition Maker
William Hannum. of Steelton. Was All
Run Down, But Master Medicine
Gave Him Lots OF Pep

Il felt all tired out" says William
Hannum, munition maker, who lives
at Steelton, Pa. Il have been working
pretty hard lately and l guess the
nervous strain together with the bolt
ing of my food sort of put me on the
bum.
II know my stomach was on the
fritz and | couldn't eat anything with
out feeling as if l had swallowed a
toy balloon and about a pound and a
half of fine hot lead.
Il didn't have any pep about me, I
was sort of like you get in the Spring
when the Springos hit you Sort of
fidgety and nervous as IL something
was due to happen any minute and /
was waiting for it.
MY head ached all the time and
no more appetite than a bird and l
was constipated, too. / was falling off
in weight, lost II pounds in a short
time.
I'm not much for medicines, but ]
felt so mean that l naturally read
about Tanlac. and when / saw that ii
had helped fellow 1 knew l went and
asked him about 1t. He told me 1t was
all to the good and came into town
and got me some.
It's great stuff, all right. and it
fixed me up o K. I'm full of pep. I
feel like working and / eat like a wolf
My headaches are all gone, too and /
sleep like a top. Never a bulge all
night long"
Tanlac. the famous stomachic in
vigorant and all-round tonic, is now
being specially introduced here al
Gorgas' Drug Store, where the Tanlac
man will explain the merits of this
master medicine to all who inquire.

TO HASTEN TRIAL
OF HARDSCRABBLE
DAMAGE QUESTION
City Solicitor Seitz to Ask
Court to Place Cases on Com
mon Pleas List

Within the next fe wdays City
Solicitor D. S. Seitz will ask the Dau-
phin county court to frame an issue
on the question of the appeals of the
Hardscrabble property owners from
the damages awarded by the board
of viewers so that the trial of the cases
by Common Pleas jury can be placed
nthe court calendar as early as pos
sible.
Co o-incident with the filing by the
Hardscrabble property owners of for
NAL objections to the report OF the
viewers theer were also filed appeals
on the question of the amount of dam
ages allowed.
The court recently overruIed the
objections and yesterday in another
opinion refused to permit the argu-
ment to be reopened. An appeal on
the courts opinion on the objections
can be taken to the Supreme Court
and the appellants may take this step
any time within six months 1t is
considered questionable, however, in
legal circles as to whether such an
appeal will be taken because of the
enormous cost that will be involved.
At least a thousand dollars must be
spent by the property owners to pre-
pare the testimony in book form for
the Supreme Courts consideration, it
is said.

1t states further that the method of
conducting submarine warfare has
been modified out of regard for the
long standing friendship between the
United States and Germany and be-
cause lives of American citizens had

The memorandum states that the

tional because of reprisals must not
be directed against others than enemy
substituted for phrases which in
cluded the word illegal" which Ger
many was unwilling to incorporate
in the memorandum.
Then the memorandum expresses
regret for the losses of American lives
assumes liability for the losses on the
Lusitania and offers reparation in the
form of indemnity. 1t closes with
references to the freedom of the seas
and expresses the hope that Ger
many may have opportunity to CO.
operate with the United States to
bring it about, if possible, before the
end of the war.
Some time ago the State Depart
ment inadvertently conveyed the i'm
preston to the German embassy that
it wished to publish the note and in
Germanic quarters the inference was
drawn that the expected publication
indicated its acceptance.
So far as officials disclose the status
of the case is the same as it was when
action on the memorandum was held
in allegiance pending developments on
how Germany's final promises in the
Sussex case were carried out.
