Celebrated Medicine Has
Done for Them.

IT is seldom, indeed, that men Of prom
! inence, especially men holding high
public Office, willingly express their in
%debtedness publicly to a proprietary
medicine. Many prominent men, how
ever, including supreme court judges,
mayors Of our leading cities, prominent
state and county officials, bankers, law
yers, doctors, editors, leading educa-
tors, government officials and even min
listers Of the Gospel have deemed 1t
their duty to come forward and tell
the people what Tanlac has done for
them.
These well-knOwn men Of affairs
have recognized In this medicine a new
discovery and a scientific triumph in
the medical world. 1t is a well-knOwn
fact that these splendid Endorsements
have been given Tanlac time and time
again and they will continue to be
given just as often as new tests of its
powers are made; and it also ebplains
why numbers of the big drug firms Of
the country are ordering it exclusively
in carload lots.

Washington.-Presiden Wilson in a
statement outlining the administers
tons food control policy, announced
he had asked Herbert c. Hoover to be-
come American food administrator and
that Mr.. Hoover would accept the
place. Explaining that II was abso-
lutely necessary to vest unquestion-
able powers in the government, the
President declared he is confident
that exercise OF the authority granted
will be necessary only lin the few
cases where some small and selfish
minority proves unwilling to put the
nations interests above personal ad-
vantage"
He makes it clear that the food ad-
ministration is only for an emerg-
ency situation and that since it will
be composed for the most part of vol
unteers there need be no fear of the
possibility of a permanent bureau.

Leaks" In Daily Life

The probable fact that large sums
were made in the stock market
through advance information of
President Wilson's peace note
looks like a big abuse, Are dlplo-
matte negotiations to de reddled
about the street, and made to Yield
a profit to the bulls and bears?
Yet many of the men who condemn
such lapses most severely are them
selves unable to keep their mouths
shut about confidential business IN
formation.
The leaders are a large profes ion.
Wall Street is full of them, being
in fact one big ear listening at KEY
holes. Fortunes are made by
premature leaks about raising and
lowering of dividend. In most
cases, through leakers are led as
tray by false tips. In any even
the insiders get the cream, leaving
the skimmings to the rest.
In ordinary business life, many a
stenographer knows enough to ruin
her employer if she talked about
it. Those are wise who draw a
distinct line between their office
life and their out side life, and
never let the two interests cross
each other.
The successful business man
keeps his mouth shut and he ex-
poets his employees to do the same.
But the big corporations must be
hard put to it to keep their pro-
jects quiet. There ore always listen
ing ears of rivals, who would give
much to learn what their COM
petitors are planning to put over
next.
There are some people whose
natural instinct is to talk about all
their observations, experiences,
surmises, and impressions. They
babble artlessly and garrously about
their job, and the work that goes
on under their eyes. Vital trade
secrets are passed along "just be-
tween u.s." That kind of person
does not get very far in business.
Leakers are unpopular in the office.
Thew are sooner or later replaced
by silent, reserved sort of people,
who have the gift of reticence.-

A Remarka BILE Story
Of A Bath County Dog

A remarkable story of a sagacious
little dog comes to The Review
from Sitlington. The dog in ques-
ton belongs to Mr.. G. w. Sim
mons. On January goth Mrs. Sim
mons was very i'll and expressed a
desire for a squirrel to be served
her at the next meal. Her son
took three dogs and went out on a
hunt in the hope Of satisfying his
mothers wish, but he returned at
noon and said he had been unable
to see or hear a squirrel. After the
dogs had chased a fox all day, the
one named julie captured a squirrel
within mile of home. She was
told by her master to carry the
squirrel to her mistress, so the dog
picked up the squirrel and started
home and on reaching there gave
the squirrel to the boy who had
started on a hunt with her in
the forenoon. This actual occur
renee caused those acquainted
with all the facts to believe that
the dog understood what was
wanted and set about to provide
the coveted meal for her mistress.
At anv rate, no man has money to
buy his pa 'ticular dog, for the is
the pet Oh che family and admired
by the neighborhood for Der good
sense.

u. S. Is on Verge of War
With German Countries

Just now the United States
verges on war with the Teutonic
empires and their allies.
Swiftly following the cabled re-
call of Ambassador Gerard from
Berlin came the dramatic incident
of handing to Ambassador Won
BernstoIff his passport. With
these momentous events came the
formal severance of diplomatic re-
lations with G, rmany and tension
in every governmental department
that indicated official Washington
regarded war as an imminent pos
sibility.
Washington, Feb. 3--With dip
lomatic relations already actually
severed, President Wilson this af--
ternoon went before joint session
of Congress and declared that he
did not believe that Germany will
deliberately sacrifice American
lives in a wilful prosecution of her
ruthless naval program.
The President assured Congress
that only overt acts on Germany's
part can make him believe that
American rights are to be deliber-
ately violated.
"But, if such action comes, "
said President Wilson, Il will again
come before Congress-" and he
made it plain that in such an event
he will be forced to demand repris-
ais.
The question of war or peace re-
poses in Germany. If American
lives are sacrificed in the new sub
marine operations, the President
will demand from Congress author
ity to use any means that may be
necessary for the protection of their
peaceful and legitimate errands on
the high seas.
