Mr.. 7. P. WHITE
MAKESSTATEMENT
HE SUFFERED WITH STOMACH
TROUBLE: FOUND RELIEF
FROM USE OF TANnAC.

become so well known in Tulsa and
vicinity that hundreds are tcstifying
to its great curative powers Among
the many that have found relief from
Tanlac is Mr.. II. l.. White, who re-
sides at No ZIG South Detroit street,

tool-dresser and makes the following
statement regarding his experience
with Tanlac. Mr.. White saws: 81 suf-
fered from stomach trouble; 1t
seemed as though everything | ate
would sour on my stomach and the
food l ate did not taste good At
times | would have dizzy spells and
everything would become black be-
fore my eyes. | had read and heard
about this Tanlac, so l tried a bottle.
This bottle is almost used up and |
intend to buy another bottle when 1t
is gone, because it has helped me
wonderfully and | believe one more
bottle will cure me. Since taking
Tanlac | am no longer bothered with
the dizzy spells and the food | eat
agrees with me and tastes lots differ
ent and better and | now enjoy cat
ing without fear of bad results.
gladly recommend Tanlac to all suf-
fering as | did"

1ODAY'S BEAUTY HINT

It Is not necessary to shampoo quite
so frequently if your hair is properly
cleansed each time by use of really
good shampoo. The easiest to use
and quickest drying shampoo that we
can recommend to our readers may
be prepared very cheaply by dissolv-
ing teaspoonful of canthrox, OBJ
tanned from your druggist, in cup of
hot water. This rubbed into the scalp
creates thick lather, soothing and
cooling in its action, as well as very
beneficial to scalp and hair. After
rinsing, the scalp is fresh and clean,
while the hair dries quickly and
evenly, developing a bright luster and
a soft fluffiness that makes 1t seem
very heavy.-Adv.

PROTEST AGAINST
SEWER BOND ISSUE
Local Taxpayers League
Thought to Have De-
layed the Approval.

Had not Attorney General S. Prince
Freezing been notified by long dis
tance yesterday that a protest would
be filed against the approval of the
100000 sewer bond issue the bonds
would have been approved. This in
formation was received from Okla
homa City last night.
Yesterday was the last day on
which protest could be filed. AL
though the protest was not actually
filed yesterday notice was given and
under the law the issue now will be
held up until a hearing can be given.
According to information from the
attorney generals office last night the
name of the protestants were not
known but it is thought that the local
taxpayers league filed the complaint.
The $250,O0 park bond issue which
was voted at the same election as the
sewer bonds is still pending approval.

PULP FOR PAPER.
It ls Now Mainly Obtained From Wood
and Vegetable Fibers.

II ls Now Mainly Obtained From Wood
and Vegetable Fibers.
Paper derives its name from the fact
that it was originally made by the
Egyptians from papyrus, a rushlike
plant formerly common in Egypt along
the Nile. Today paper is largely made
from vegetable fibers and cellulose. rs
When it was found that the fibers
Of the cotton and flax plants were best
adapted for making paper and the
uses of paper were few the ragman
did fOurishing business in buying
old rags to keep the pAper manufac-
turers supplied with raw material
The rags were first allowed to rot to
remove the substances incrusting the
cellulose and were then beaten into a
pulp to which water was added. The
pulp was then placed in a sieve and
drained and subjected to heavy pres
sure which united the fibers and pro-
duced paper. By the modern method
the rags are boiled with caustic soda,
which separates the cellulose ibers,
and placed in machine in which roll
ers set with knives tear the rags to
pieces and mix them with water to
make pulp. This pulp is bleached
with chloride of lime and mixed with
alum and a kind of soap to give a
smooth surface.
The way mans discoveries operate
to supply his needs in the progress of
civilization is notably illustrated in the
production of paper Under the old
method the big supply required today
for newspapers and other uses could
not have been produced.
The discovery that pulp could be
made from the trunks and limbs Of
trees came to the rescue. 1t was found
that by boiling wood shavings in
strong solutions of caustic soda in re-
ceptacles that would withstand very
high pressure the wood fibers were
separated and very good quality Of
cellulose for paper manufacture pro-
duced. AS result of this discovery
paper today is mostly made of wood
