BULGARIA SEEKING PEACE
Reportcd to Have Made Overtures to
the Entente Powers.

London, Feb. 14.-Bulgaria is seek
ing peace with the entente powers, &C
cording to the Athens correspondent
of the Exchange Telegraph company,
who, In a dispatch received here
states that he has obtained confrma'
ton in entente circles in Greece of
reports that Bulgaria had made over
lures for a separate peace.
Bulgaria accomplished her object In
entering the European war when
Serbia was overthrown, so her anxiety
to make terms causes no surprise
among the entente powers. Before
declaring war II was definitely an
nounced in her behalf that her par
ticipation would be limited to the cam
paign in Serbia and that once Serbia
was conquered her active participa-
ton would cease. No intimation OF
the terms Bulgaria seeks could not be
obtained.

OLD FOLKS FIND
A CHEEKY FRIEND
A Boon to Those Who Have
Started Down the Hill of Life.

So many of us have been seeking som,
really efficient remedy TO give to our old
folks who are treading in the long
shadows of life That remedy must
contain the proper tonic qualities to re-
vitalize sluggish organs and the blood
That something has been found
1t is Tanlac.
1t is cowardly to let debility sap away
the life and comforts when it can be
stayed A condition of debility never
wears itself out. Instead, it gradually
grows more pronounced unless proper
measures to check it are taken 1t
gathers force and nourishes itself upon
the tissues of the body. To build up
those tissues is to fight debility.
Characteristic conditions of debility
both in old and young are nervousness,
headaches, backaches, depression of
spirits, loss of appetite, sleeplessness
and general good-for-nothing feeling
that comes from lack of energy.
Tanlac is designed to combat these
conditions in many ways. 1t is a SPLEEN
did tonic and tissue builder with just the
right amount of proteids. 1t quiets
nerves and brings back restful sleep,
which is Natures first aid to the debil-
lated. 1t corrects stomach troubles
and there, in nine cases out of ten, you
have the seat Of nervous, facilitating
ailment.
With the body recharged with vigor,
that detested, Respondent feeling passes
away so quickly you are astonished and
mighty regretful that you didn't start
out to hight it long before.
Tanlac may now be obtained in Clover
port, KY, at Weddings Drug Store,
where its great popularity is being bet
ter shown every day.
