.TANLAC'S GOOD NAME
A ASSET
Thousands of Men and Women
Are Daily Testifying to
Merits.

A good reputation is the best
thing in life, and a good reputa-
ton is worth as much to a medi-
cine as it is to an individual.
The truth of this is clearly
brought out by the fact that
business men, professional men,
artisans, and women in all walks
of life whose common, practical
Judgment guides them in all
acts and conclusions, are daily
testifying to the merits of Tan
lac.
"Tanlac" has become a house
hold word. It's success is unprec-
edented and its fame is based
very solidly on its accomplish
ments in nearly two million of
homes. Tanlac is natures own
remedy. 1t is a purely vegetable
compound, made from roots,
herbs, flowers and banks. The
ingredients for this wonderful
remedy are gathered in the re-
hottest parts of the world, and
under the personal direction of
the noted chemist, Joseph Won
Trimbach, are compounded into
Tanlac.
Tanlac acts like magic against
stomach trouble, gas fermenta-
ton, dizziness, bloating, and
heavy distressed feeling after
meals. 1t attacks poisons in the
blood, corrects diseased condi-
tons of the liver and kidneys,
and restores them to normal con-
dition.
Tanlac works wonders where
men and women suffer from
catarrhal troubles, which may be
indicated by any one of the fol
lowing symptoms: coughing OF
mucous, offensive breath, dizzi-
ness loss Of flesh, ringing in the
head or ears, headaches, pains
in the side or stomach regions
indigestion, bloating of the stom.
ach, constipation, or dyspepsia
Tanlac is an invigorant, APP.
petizer, tonic and builder of tbs.
sues. 1t cleanses the entire sys
tenn of wastes and vitalizes The
blood and brings back color t
the cheeks and sparkle to tn,
eyes.
Tanlac is now being especial!

Yields; In Bad Grace, to United
States Demands

The undersigned, OH behalf of
the Imperial German Govern
ment, has the honor to present to
His Excellency, the Ambassador
of the United States, James w.
Gerard, the following reply to the
note of April 20 regarding the
conduct of German submarine
warfare.
The German Government
handed over to the proper naval
authorities for further investiga-
ton evidence concerning the
Sussex as communicated by the
Government of the United States.
Judging by the results that in
vestigation hitherto yielded, the
German Government is alive to
the possibility that the ship men
toned in the note of April 10 as
being torpedoed by German
submarine is actually identical
WIFI TIC OuSSGA.
The German government begs
to reserve further cOmmunica-
tons on the matter until certain
points are ascertained which are
of decisive Importance for estab-
fishing the complete facts in the
case.
Should it turn out that the com
mander (of the submarine) was

(the SUSSEX to be a man-of-War
the German Government will not
fail to Saw consequences result
ing theig 81
CRy II sgoihg sentence the
German Government guarantees
to make amends it would deem
proper under the circumstances. J
In connection with the case Of
the Sussex, the United. States
made a series of statements, the
gisf of which is the assertion that
the incident to be considered was
but one instance of a, deliberate
method of the indiscriminate de-
struction of vessels of all sorts
and all nationalities and destina-
tons by German submarine COM
manders.
The German Government must
emphatically repudiate the asser-
ton, but the German Government
however thinks it of little avail to
enter into details in the present
stage of affairs, more particularly
as the Government of the United
States omitted to substantiate by
reference to concrete facts.
The German Government will
only state that it has imposed
tar-reachlng restraints upon the
use of submarine weapons solely

GERMAN GOVERNMENT REPLIES
To AMERICAN NOTE DE- APRIL %

in consideration of the interest of
neutrals, in spite of the fact that
these restrictions were necessar-
lily of advantage to Germany's en-
enlies.
No such consideration has ever
been shown to neutrals by Great
Britain or her allies.
German submarine forces have,
in fact, had orders to conduct
submarine warfare in accordance
with the general principles of Wis
it and search. The destruction
of merchant ships has been rec
ognized by international law, the
sole exception being the conduct
of warfare against enemy trade
carried on against enemy freight
ships encountered in the war zone
waters around Great Britain
British Isles). With regard to
these no assurances were ever
given to the United States.
No such assurances were con-
tanned in the declaration of Feb.
8, 1916.
The German Government can
not admit that it has any doubt
about these orders being carried
out in good faith (by the subma-
rine commanders.
Errors actually (may have) oc-
Cured. In no ind of warfare can
they be avoided altogether, and
allowance must be made in the
conduct of naval warfare against
an enemy that is resorting to all
kinds of ruses, be they permits
sible OF illegal.
But apart from the possibility
OF errors, naval warfare, like war
fare on land, implies unavoidable
dangers for neutral persons and
goods entering a fighting zone
Even in case where naval &C
tons were confined to the ordi-
nary form of cruiser (man-of-
wary fighting, neutral persons
and goods have repeatedly come
to grief.
The German Government has
repeatedly and explicitly pointed
out dangers of mines that have
led to the loss of numerous ships.
The German Government has
made several proposals to the
Government of the United States
in order to reduce to minimum
for American travellers and goods
the (inherent) natural dangers of
naval warfare.
Unfortunately the Government
of the United States decided not
to accept the proposals. Had it
accepted them the Government
of the United States would have
been instrumental in preventing

Vera Marx Night Officers Logan
and Dodson left at once for the place
and arriving there Logan went in the
front way and Dodson remained in
the rear expecting the man to run
out, Logan on entering surprised
the man, who proved to be a negro,
in the act OF gathering up what he
could find. The negro showed fight,
but Logan raped him over the head
with his gun, which had a tendency
to quiet him, when he was handcuffed
and taken to the jail by the officers.
Aiter placing their prisoner in jail
the officers returned to the house to
see what the negro had made away
with, and in their search some cloth
ing and other things were found out

Among the lot were a couple of bot

Lewis, a negro, who was sentenced
from Humboldt county to from two
