Buckache

In spite of the best care one takes
Of oneself, any part Of the human machine
Is liable to become out of order. The
most important organs are the stomach,
heart and kidneys.
The kidneys are the scavengers and they
work day and night in separating the
poisons from the blood. Their signals of
distress are easily recognized and in
-clude such symptoms as backache, de-
pressions, drowsiness, irritability, head
aches, dizziness, rheumatic twinges,
-dropsy, gout.
1.-THE very best way to restore the
kidneys to their normal state Of health" !"
says Dr.; Pierce, Of Buffalo, N. Y, "is to
from your favorite pharmacy a small
amount of Anuric, which is dispensed by
almost every druggist" Anuric is mex
pensive and should be taken before meals.
You will find Anuric more potent than

MAY CENTER IN WASHINGTON
Probability That One Committee VIII
Purchase All Supplies Needed by
the Allied Countries.

Washington of central
purchasing committee in Washington
for all supplies bought in the United
States for the allied governments was
forecast here by Sir Hardman Lever,
financial expert of the British war
mission. The committee will supplant
]. p. Morgan & Co.
Discussing the world financial situa-
ton, the British expert expressed the
opinion that Germany will be practical
ly bankrupt In the credit markets
after the war.
"Our enemies" he said, "fOr all their
boasted efficiency, have never had the
courage to face their financial prob
lens, with the result that when the
war is over they will be hard put to
it."
The Teutonic governments having
pyramided one internal loan upon an
other, he explained. their interest
charges would be so great that he be-
lieved they would either have to repu-
diate large part of their debt or face
inability to buy the enormous quanti-
ties of material they would need for
reconstruction.
The allies, he added, had paid their
way In the war "by the straightfor-
ward and natural means, by pouring
out their gold, by selling enormous
masses Of American securities, by rails
ing loans" AS result, he predicted
that the end Of the war would find the
allies In good shape financially, despite
their enormous permanent debts.

far-reaching disease baniShing, health
compelling remedy of the age, and
the phenomenal success the prepa-
ration has achieved throughout the
country proves conclusively that my
confidence in Tanlac is well placed.
1.-THE ingredients or medicinal ele-
ments which make Tanlac come from
many remote sections of the earth
the Alps. the Pyrenees, Russian Asia,
West Indies, mountain states near the
Rocky Mountains, Mexico and Peru
are among the points from which prin-

Tanlac."
The wonderful success which Tan
lac has achieved seems almost incred-
ible, as over Seven Million bottles have
been sold and distributed since 1t was
placed on the market, something over
two years ago. and 1t is now selling
at the phenomenal rate Of approx
mately Five Million bottles per year.
One retail firm, the Jacobs Phar-
macy Company. Of Atlanta, has sold
at retail in their eleven Atlanta stores
the astonishing total Of $4,000 bottles
within the past twelve months, break
ing all records for the sale Of pro-
prietary medicine in the same length
Of time.
Memphis dealers and jobbers have
sold 2OS,116 bottles since April. 1915.
Texas dealers and jobbers have sold
approximately Half Million bottles
within the past six months, and 1t Is
now the most widely talked of medi-
cine in the world today.
There is only one explanation for
this Nation wide popularity and rec.
ord breaking demand for Tanlac and
that Is very simple. The inherent
purity and wholesomeness of the med
icine has confirmed 1t in the minds Of
the people and have made it house
hold word throughout America.
The leading drug firms Of Denver,
Colorado Springs and Pueblo are en-
thusiastic over the wonderful success
the preparation is making In this sec
ton and in only few weeks time
Tanlac will be placed on sale in every
city, town, village and hamlet through
out the West.

graphed the entire list of 27,513 nation
al and state banks and trust companies
in the United States, authorizing them
to receive subscriptions for the $2,0OO,-
100000 bond offering, enlisting their
cooperation, and requesting them to
telegraph rough estimate of the
amount of bonds each would take for
itself and its patrons.
"You can render an invaluable serv-
Ice to your country" Mr.. McAdoo told
the banks, "by receiving subscriptions
and cooperating with the federal re-
serve bank in your district"
Loan Subscriptions Pour In.
To all clearing house associations in
the country Mr.. McAdoo sent tele-
gram in which he said:
"The amount of the initial loan has
been determined by the needs Of the
government and not arbitrarily. The
enthusiastic and patriotic cooperation
of the banks and bankers of the coun-
try will guarantee the success Of the
undertaking"
The result of the first announcement
of the loan has been deluge of sub
scriptions. aggregating many millions.
Most of these came in by wire to the
treasury. Virtually every large city
and every state in the Union was rep
resented.

Thousands of the most prominent
people in st. Louis, Cincinnati, Dallas,
Memphis, Atlanta, Birmingham, Louis
Vile, Nashville and even the larger
cities Of the North and East, where
his celebrated medicine has been ac-
complishing such remarkable results,
are even more enthusiastic over Tan
lac than Mr.. Cooper himself.
It is Mr.. Cooper's theory that nine
tenths of the diseases and ill-health
Of the average person is due to ca
tarrhal Inflammation Of the mucous
membrane which produces faulty d.
gestion and improper assimilation Of
the food.
In a recent interview, Mr.. Cooper
was asked If Tanlac would relieve
Kidney trouble. Liver complaint and
q dozen other ailments and in this
connection, said:
"As have repeatedly said, my med
icine acts directly on the mucous
membrane. stomach and blood. expel-
ling from them the impurities and
toxic poisons, and rendering to them
IT am convinced that the stomach
regulates the condition of the blood,
and is the fountainhead Of health or
disease. as the case may be. Ny
medicine is intended primarily for the
regulation of the stomach and catar-
rhal Inflammation, but 1t is no uncom-
mon thing for persons who have used
It to come to me and explain that 1t
has relieved them of rheumatism and
many other ailments not generally
recognized as having their origin in
stomach trouble.
"Most Of the so-called stomach,
liver and kidney troubles" continued
Mr.. Cooper, ''are due almost entirely
to a catarrhal Inflammation of these
organs and it is believed that Tanlac
Is the first actually direct specific
therefor.
"Catarrh of the stomach, liver and
Kidneys is the most frequent cause of
dyspepsia and kidney disorders and a
catarrhal condition Of the nose and
throat often leads to deafness. Fre-
quently the lungs become diseased by
the extension Of the catarrhal inflam-
nation by way of the bronchial tubes
to the lung substance. The mental
and physical state of the chronic ca
tarrh sufferers is indeed very unfortu-
nate.

MINERS WIN; PRICES HIGHER
Raise Promised on Condition That
Prices Advance.

Washington, Oct. 7.-Bituminous
coal miners of the central competitive
field won their fight for a general
wage increase, when a joint confer
ence here reached a compromise agree
ment on a new contract. The agree
ment presages a wage raise through
out the industry, since the central
field scale serves as a basis for all
other districts, and a consequent ad-
vance in the governments fixed price
for coal.
In seeking a revision of coal prices
to meet the wage increases, opera
tors, it is understood, will ask the
fuel administration fcr an additional
increase in prices to- cover higher min.
ing costs generally. Operators in
many fields are ~contending they can
not mine coal at a profit at the prices
recently fixed by President Wilson
and that any increases must of neces.
sity more than cover the wage raises,

Washington, Oct. 8.-The War de-
partment is preparing the railroads
for the transportation of millions more
men and billions of dollars worth more
munitions and supplies, in case of pos
sibility Of a desperate conflict before
the war is ended.
In 4 pinch the normal freight and
passenger traffic Of the nation would
be reduced to a minimum, and prac-
tically nothing would move but men
and materials for war.
1t is learned that complete plans
are in the hands of the war depart
ment for the turning of all freight, fiat
and cattle cars into troop trains and
all day coaches and Pullmans into hos
pital trains. The plan ever includes
making hospital trains out of boz cars
in emergency.
For War Purposes First.
Another plan has been proposed
whereby every ton of railroad equip,
ment in the country quickly would
be turned into rolling stock to move
unprecedented tons of war supplies
speedily to destinations anywhere in
the land. Every emergency has been
prepared for. The war department
has kept constantly in mind theSpos
sibility that America really may have
to make war to the last man and
the last ton of material before the
balance against kaiserism is swung
If this final effort becomes neces
J sary the American people will b.
called upon to make sacrifices of per
sohal convenience they have no
dreamed of.
