81 have survived an ordeal which one OF

twenty pounds in weight besides" said
Mrs. w. .. Truss of No. 1 West 9th street,

most remarkable statements yet published
n connection with the master Medicine
Il have suffered from "A catarrhal condi-
ton of the stomach and intestines for ten
years. | felt dull and drowsy in the morn

ton in my throat which would take me
hours TO expcl. | suffered dreadfully with
heartburn and pains in the pit OF my stom-
ach, and finally became so nervous | could
hardly sleep at all. ! kept getting weaker
and about the first of February a terrible
cough got hold Of me and was % bad
couldn't get any rest at all. About the
middle Of February | got % weak | had
TO give up and go to bed. Nothing gave
me any relief. | couldn't eat anything and
felt that my time was rapidly drawing to
a close.
81 lay in bed for a month feeling despon-
dent and with very little hope of getting
well. 80 sometime in March my husband
brought me a bottle Of Tanlac. | certainly
was in a bad condition when | began tax

OF help. high cost of fertilizers and chemic-
ais, and the natural economic effect of wal
are given here in the wine country as the
reasons for the rise. Another reason is
the purchase of "wine on the vinc," and
successive transfers of the crop from one
SPECTATOR to another, even before the
grapes have ripened, the same system a.
adopted by spectators in coal importation
licenses last winter.
This abnormal dealing has made ordi-
nary wines relatively dearer than the fine
wines. ~Burgundies, ~clarets and good white
wines, generally are abundant and have
not increased excessively in price. They
are not 80 much subject to speculation and
they escape acquisitions, but they suffer
quite a much as ordinary grades. even
IN more cases, from the insufficient supply
of bottles and casks.
The minister Of provisions proposes TO
either requiSition the entire crop, annulling
all speculative contracts, and supervise the
distribution to the retail trade, or fix a
maximum selling price at which common
wines may be sold to the consumer.
The opinion Of the wine country wa thus
expressed by q grower of the Gard "They
propose 10 limit the ayails of the wine
growers work, but no one has ever talked
about keeping down the profits of the mer-
chants who sell us sulphate of opper and
sulphur said he. 'The great danger in
these projects for limiting selling prices
or rcquisitloning at arbitrary figures is
their vineyards: consequence, a scarcity Of
wine and higher prices yet"
The Winegrowcrs' association proposes
"a a compromise hat concessions he made
to the state on the quantities of wine re-
Questioned for the army and that. in re-
turn the state leave the wine market to adj
Just itself.
