Richmond Woman Comes
Out for Tanlac and Tells of
Improvement.

Mrs. Rose Dedisman, % S. w. Sec
ond street, this city. took full dozen
bottles of Tanlac and said she felt lots
better in every way.
MY system was run down and
was getting thin and felt tired about
all the time before took Tanlac," Mrs.
Dedisman said Il was nervous and
never could sleep soundly. 1t seemed
to me that | didn't much more than
just doze at night.
Il read about Tanlac and decided to
try It, | guess l took about dozen
bottles in all and l felt a lot better In
every respect. My health seemed to
be better than 1t had been for a pret-
ty long time.
Il think Tanlac is a mighty good
medicine and I'm ready to recommend
it."
Many Richmond men and women are
publicly recommending Tanlac. They
have tried it and know 1t to be the sys-
tenn builder, strength producer and ap-
petizer it is claimed to be. II you are
not feeling right why don't you try
Tanlac and get back health like you

NEARLY THIRD
OF FOREIGNERS
BOUGHT BONDS
Pennsylvania Railroad Pub
fishes Figures on Liberty
Purchases.

Thirty-two percent Of foreign-born
employees of the Pennsylvania rail-
road subscribed to the first Liberty
Loan, according to a statement issued
by that railroad.
In making the investigation 1t was
learned there are men Of forty-two
nationalities employed on the Pennsyl-
yania railroad. Members of 80 alien
races were included among the buyers
Of Liberty Bonds.
The Italian race furnishes the larg-
est number Of foreign-born employees,
the number being about one-third OF
all the alien born. About 80 percent
of the Italians bought Liberty Bonds
Forty-three percent Of the Irish
born employees subscribed to the Loan
Thirty-six percent of the English born
and thirty-six percent Of the Russian
and Polish born employees invested In
Liberty Bonds.
Germans Bought Too
The statement shows the interest
ing fact that 80 percent of employees
Of German birth were subscribers to
the Liberty Loan.
Two japanese and two Chinese
were found to be In service but none
were recorded as subscribing to the
loan.
Other buyers of the bonds included
such diverse nationalities as Swedes,
Slavs, Spaniards. Bohemians. Swiss.
Roumanians, Norwegians, Hollanders,
Danes, Cubans, Firms. Greeks, Aus
tralians. Portuguese, Serbs. Syrians.,
South Americans, West Indians, Ar
abs, Armenians, Persians, Africans,
Ukrania, Costa Ricans and Croats.
The inquiry brought about the fact
that since the fall of 1914, the Penn
sylvania Lines East of Pittsturg have
sustained a net loss of 1877 employees
Of foreign birth. as result OF men
returning to their native country for
military service, or have taken posi-
tions at higher wages brought about
by economic conditions caused by the
war.

GOOD ROADS HELP CHILDREN


The rural population is more willing
to support better schools today than
at any previous time. Ii Is being re-
allied that all educational activities or
agencies must be more or less cor
related. and. more than all else. that
they must be more accessible to the
children In many counties where
bad roads prevail. most OF the schools
are OF the antiquated one-room va
riety. They are usually located along
bad roads which. during the winter.

GERMANS BEGIN RETREAT.
FALL BACK ON SOM1fE FRONT
BEFORE BRITISH AD-
VANCE.
German Military Critics Say Retreat
is Strategic Move to Draw British
Into Open - French Say British
Gained Advantage by Pursuing Ger-
mans with Artillery Fire.

New York. March 14.-Another
great retreat by the Germans on the
Homme front is in progress, conse-
quent to the advance which brought
the British to the ridge west of
oapaume where the Germans aban-
doned their main defensive works on
front OF three and a-half miles. The
speedy fall of Bapaume is probable.
German military writer's, who an.
hounce that Gen. Won Hindenburg is
directing the operations on the wes-
tern front. see in the retreat a strate-
Slc movement to draw the British into
the open, much as he did with the
Russians in East Prussia.
Paris writer's say that if the Ger
man retreat was begun to disconcert
the British plans it was frustrated by
the British tactics. The British forced
the Germans to continue their with
drawal by following them up with SUI
perior artillery fire instead of going
after them with cavalry.
The French have captured Roman.
Vile Farm in the st. Mihiels Salient.
The Turks continue their retreat

BERLIN REVIEWS EFFORTS
To Have the Prusslan. American
Treaty Amended.

Washington. March 12.-Germany
today renewed her efforts to have the
United States sign protocol amend
ing the Prussian American treaty Of
177s SO as to exempt all German
residents In the United States from
arrest or interference during war, and
reserving to all German ships in
American ports the right to safe con-
duct to home ports. 1t is the same
protocol that Ambassador Gerard re.
fused to consider before leaving Ber-
lin.
The Swiss minister, DR.. Paul Ritter,
called at the State department today
by direction Of the German foreign
Office with a copy OF the proposed
amendment to the treaty. He was un-
able to see Secretary Lansing. The
matter probably will be given due
consideration by State department Of
ficials though 1t is realized that such
an amendment, even though the ad-
ministration favored it. would not
have much prospect Of ratification in
the senate.
