to both measures. The conscription bill
il said to be particularly unpopular with
a certain group of legislators who repre-
sent communities wherein the doctrines
Of paclfism have enjoyed wide exploita-
ton by the propagandists. To a smaller
faction also, a little group who consti-

1t is certain that the emergency army

BAD COULDN'T WALK
For Three Years Mrs. O. r.
Lee Had Suffered Tortures,
Her Husband Says.
TANLAC BRINGS RELIEF
Swelling in Her Limbs Has
Disappeared and Troubles
Are Being Overcome.

"Before my wife took this Tanlac
she suffered so with rheumatism she
sleep" said q. X. Lee while
in the ReNall Drug store n few DAYS
ago. Mr.. Lee was carpenter Tor
many years I'm Tulsa, but is now living
ON his farm az Sand Springs.
My wife simply suffered tortures,' v
he continued, FOR three years with
rheumatism, and |
couldn't find anything that would re-
licve her. She would have attacks In
her lower limbs and her joints would
swell especially at night. and worry
her so she couldn't sleep, and many
times the suffering was SO intense she
couldn't walk Then the trouble
would go 90 her arms. which would
become red and swollen and hurt her
SO bad she could hardly use them.
one time | paid sixty dollars for a
treatment that is supposed TO he the
best in the world for such case, but
It didn't do her one hit of good She
used many bottle ot liniment and
took lots ~ other medicines. but only
got relief for little while at time
its the honest truth. one bottle OF
TSulaD has done her more good than
everything else she has ever used put
together She is just now beginning
on her second bottle. and all the swell
ing has disappeared from her limbs
entirely and they haven't bothered her
now I'm several days Tanlac seemed
to- go right 10 the spot and gave her
relief IN Just a few DAYS. She feels
sure and 80 do that her rheumatism
will soon be thing Of the past, and
l will always speak a good word for
Tanlac."
Rheumatism Is not only one OF tho
but one Of the most painful
and difficult to treat of all present
day diseases. When the digestive or
gans and bowels are not working
and the kidneys become
clogRed up. the whole system becomes
deranged and saturated with uric acid
poisons and other impurities. which
accumulate In the joints and other
parts of the body and produce the
known as rheumatism
Tanlac Is powerful reconstructive
tonic and quickly oVercomes this con-
dition by acting directly on the vital
organs. toning them up and enabling
them to perform their proper func-
tions. so that the impurities are soon
eliminated from the system In the
natural way. Liniments and external
as general thing only
afford temporary relief Tanlac Is
treatment and gets
right at the root of the trouble by
removing the cause.
Tanlac is sold in Tulsa exclusively
by Roy Getman's ReXall Drug Store
and Quaker Drug Co. under the per-
sonal direction of a special Tanlac
representative.

New Yorll's lead in the National was

the four games played. The series
with Boston ended in a victory and
the series with Philadelphia began
with the defeat OF Alexander st.

Philadelphia was the best winning

Connie Mack's men showed their heels

New Orleans Cotton.

NEW ORLEANS, April 29-A cent a
pound rise was recorded in the cotton market
last week on the strongest months, Octooe.
and December both showing net gain OF
exactly 100 points at their highest levels.
Closing prices were at a net rise Of 81 to 90
points. Lowest prices were made around the
opening Of the week and highest on the
closing session.
The rising tendency was due in large
measure to talk OF reduced acreage, owing to
large planting of food and feed crops, but
on the closing session fear OF cold weather
in sections where young cotton Is up and
greatly improved demand for spots were
the supporting influences Spot sales last
week were the largest for a single week in
months the total being 19,s0s bales on the
spot and 789 TO arrive
War conditions caused caution in the early
part OF the week and many traders were
anxious to see how financial conditions would
be affected by the war loan. The great
number OF vessels lost by the activity Of
submarines also worked for caution.
