MRS. M. A. TURNER GAINED 31 POUNDS
 ON THREE BOTTLES
Nobody That Knows the Condition I Was in Can Blame Me for Thinking a Lot of Tanlac,
 She Says

T never made a public statement before in my life, but when a medicine actually makes woman gain 31 pounds I think it's as little as they can do to tell other people about it-and that's exactly what three bottles ot Tanlac has done for me- said Mrs. NJ. A Turner 112 West Thirty first street, Savannah. the mother of 10 children and wife of a well known printer and good. substantial citizen who has lived there for number of years.
 Nobody that knows the condition I was in." continued Mrs. Turner "can blame me for thinking a whole lot of this medicine. for I suffered for four years with the worst kind of stomach trouble and indigestion and had actu ally gotten so I couldn't even drink tea or coffee or eat meat of any kind.
 T was in a terribly nervous and run down condition. and I had gotten so I just felt so weak and tired all the time didn't feel equal to any thing. I'd been treated by several doc tors for these troubles. but I didn't seem to get any relief, and l finally got so epson salts and things like that wouldn't have any effect on me or give me even temporary relief, and l simply didn't know what to do about my condition or what to take for it.
 T wasn't able to sleep to do any good, and I suppose this came from my nerves being all torn up and I'd lost flesh and color and gone down just every way when begun reading about Tanlac and decided I'd better try it.
 I'm now on my fourth bottle of this good medicine and l certainly feel ,ketter in every way than I have for T 1 Ang, long time. I sleep better, have lsrtter color. and my health is better,
 fres no doubt about that. The fact

State Will Give Initiative and Referendum It's
 First Trial
SUFFICIENT NUMBER
 HAVE SIGNED PETITION
Among Measures Which Will Be At tackled in the General Election Is the One-Quart
 Liquor Law

Jackson, Miss. July 9.-(Special) The time for filing initiative and ref erendum election petitions with the secretary of state has expired and the names are now being counted. These petitions call for elections next No- vember on the one-quart-per-day ship ment of whisky, on the newspaper ad- vertising of whisky, on the fish and game law and on the proposition to issue sS15.000 in state bonds tor the purpose of repairing the old capitol, to assist in promoting the centennial of the admission of Mississippi into the union. to establish a tuberculosis hos pital and juvenile refornlatory. Under the act, inserting this initiative and referendum amendment into the con- stitution of the state. it was provided that petitions for an election should be filed with the secretary of state 90 days after the passage of the act The time was up Friday night, end judging only by the bulk and appear ance of the petitions the 5000 names required have been secured for all save the bond issues election. wherefore that will stand and the election will be held to test the other laws-that is, as to hunting and fishing regulations and the prohibition restrictions, and all of which drastic. intolerable measures stand a good chance of being defeated at the polls.
 Just so soon as the secretary of state shall have certified that the petitions bear a sufficient number of names ot qualified electors to order an election, the new laws become inoperative and are to be held in abeyance until the matter is settled at the polls. pAA Jaw is very plain that proposition, and it is even held by some of the fore most lawyers in the state that the new laws are imperative now. So convinced are they of this view of the case that they are preparing to put the law to the test of the courts in defense of parties who have been arrested for having more liquor in their possession than the new law allows. So positive are the wholesale dealers in liquors in other states that they are flooding Mississippi with literature advertising the fact that as soon a the election shall have. been ordered they will fill and ship as much as one gallon per day to any one person ordering same.

man, Union Railway car collided with
two automobiles in the Bronx early to-
day and one man was killed and seven

Starting on the first trip of the day,

when it reached the intersection of the
two roads ran headon into two automo-
biles coming from opposite directions.
The car left the tracks and turned tur-
tie and many were pinned beneath it.
One of the automobiles struck was a
large truck carrying laborers to their
work. This truck in turn was hurled
against touring ear, overturning it.
Five of those injured are in cmritical
condition. Many suffered minor iniur.
les from flying glass and splinters of

viii Make Some Speeches But
These Not Before Political
Gatherings
By Robert j. Bender.
ited Press staff correspondent.) }

Omitted Press staff correspondent
New London, Conn, Sept. 12.-Presi
dent Wilson had decided to make a
number of prediction speeches in ad-
dition to those already scheduled Sep
tember 20 at st. Louis and September
"a at Baltimore.
The president reached this decision
after talk with Homer Cummings, vice
chairman of the democratic national
committee on the train en- route here
yesterday. Cummings, who is charged
with the duty of rounding up campaign
orators, told the president he should
accept a number of invitations extend
ed him by organizations in different
parts of the country "where the people
are waiting to be told why the demo
cratic administration should be return
ed to power"
Where the additional speeches will be
made will be left to the judgment of
the national committee, but the presi-
dent has asked that they be confined
so far as possible to the east. His reason
for this is that if he goes on an ex-
tended trip into the west he will be COM
PEELED to deliver numerous platform
speeches-all of a political nature-and
he wishes to avoid this, believing that
the president of the United States
should not campaign for reelection.
Cummings urged the president to
make one speech in Connecticut and be-
lieves he may acquiesce. The president
made it clear however, that he will
deliver no address before partisan or
ganizations or at political gatherings of
of any kind He will accept only invi-
tations extended him by organizations
non-political in character.
Next Monday Chairman Vance Me
Cormiek and Cummings plan to confer
with President Wilson at Shadow Lawn
relative to this feature of the campaign.
The meeting was to have been held yes
terday but the illness of the president IS
sister necessitating his trip here result
ed in a postponement.
President Wilson retired early aboard
the yacht Mayflower last night and
was not informed of the Maine results
until this morning. He made no COM
ment.
