HELPED BOTH HIS
WIFE AND HIS SON
Sinking Springs Contractor Says
Tanlac Restored Health and
Harmony at Home
RESULTS CAME PROMPTLY

MY wife was in a bad way from
nervous indigestion" says Peter r.
Leininger, a well-known stone ma
sonry contractor of Sinking Springs,
Pa. "She couldn't eat or sleep and
she was in constant misery.
She was awfully nervous and con-
tinually so distended with gas that
she could hardly breathe, for it
seemed as though her diaphragm
was compressed by the distension of
her stomach.
I'VE had tried many remedies
without satisfactory results and we
had about givenNu hope when I
read in the paper where Tanlac had
brought relief in a similar case. |
bought my wife a bottle of this won-
derful medicine and it gave her re-
lief from the very first doses. She
improved steadily and il wasn't long
until she found herself enjoying her
meals and sleeping we'll and long.
I'VE both feel now that she is per-
manently cured and we have been
giving Tanlac to our young son ana
he is rapidly becoming well and
strong so that thanks to Tanlac
health and harmony has been restor-
ed to our home"
Tanlac, the famous reconstructiye
tonic, is now being introduced here
at Gorgas' Drug Store where the
Tanlac man is meeting the people
and explaining the merits of this
master medicine.

would be ready to be taken away
by his mother at the time appointed
by the court.
When the case of Mrs. De Saulles
is called for trial. according to the
statements of her attorney, Mr.. De
Saulles will be pictured as a man
who had ha his infidelities forgiven
many times by his wife because of
her devotion for the child. 1t was
also learned the defense would at
tempt to show the murder was not
premeditated but that Mrs. De
Saulles carried the revolver, a gift
of her husbands, for her own pro-
lection.
In support of this theory Con-
stable Thorne said that last Friday,
probably a short time before Mrs.
De Saulles sent her son to go to his
father, that he had been called on
the telephone and told of an at
tempt~to rob Mrs. De Saulles' garage.
Mrs. De Saulles' attorney said the
revolver was not a new one, but a
relic of her honeymoon and had been
given her by her former husband
wha had taught her to use it,
Mrs. De Saulles' devotion to her
son was the subject of comment, ac-
cording to the Rev. George NJ. Brew
er, pastor of the Trinity Episcopal
Church at Roslyn. He said he did
not remember ever seeing her unless
she was accompanied by her son.
Others who, like DR.. Brewer, live
near the home of Mrs. De Saulles
were quoted as saying she lived only
for her child, spent all her waking
hours playing with him or telling
him stories while seated in the
arbors on the grounds of her coun-
try home.

ORPHANS TO BE
GIVEN AN OUTING
BY MOTOR CLUB
Annual Affair Will Be Held
at Hershey Park Latter
Part of Month

At the regular monthly meeting
of the Board of Governors of tho
Motor Club of Harrisburg, it was de-
cided that the annual Orphans Day
Outing should be held this year and
the secretary was instructed to Sc
cure a date from the management of
Hershey Park for the latter part of
this month.
The fact that the children were
disappointed last year on account of
the quarantine for infantile paralysis
made it seem all the more important
that the outing should be held this
year. The statement from President
Wilson that forms of amusement
should not be abandoned on account
of the war would surely mean that
the little unfortunate children of the
different institutions were not to
forego the pleasure of days out
ing.
At least fifty automobiles will be
needed to transport the youngsters to
Hershey and if you want to enjoy
genuine gladness and experience the
thrill of unadulterated joy, take part
in the coming automobile outing of
the orphans.
No motorist is barred, members of
the Motor Club and nonmembers
may take part. What is needed now
is a list of good fellows who will
volunteer the use of their automo-
biles on the day of the outing. 1t is
not too early to notify the secretary,
whose address is 100 South Second
street, or can be reached by Bell
phone asa.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1917-08-06

100000 to meet the expense. Few
details of the plan were given to
Congress or to the public. Mr.. Cof-
fin merely said it could be done, and
Secretary of War Baker declared he
was convinced the idea was feasible.
Upon little more than these assur-
ance the money was voted.
1t was, generally realized the real
problem involved was the produc-
tion of motors with sufficient power
and minimum weight to drive the
airplanes ae speed that would per-
NIT them to compete with German
machines. The production of the
mere planes was n comparatively
simple matter. especially in view Of
the fact that the models used by the
allied powers were at the disposal
of this government. But foreign
countries could not furnish the mo-
tors, for the reason that their plants
were already oYerburdened.
American Ingenuity Triumphs
American ingenuity and enter
prise has met and solved the prob
lem. Automobile motors, manufac-
tured by some of the oldest and best
automobile manufacturers in the
country, have been adapted to the
purposes or the government and
with successful results. The power
has been generated, the weight re-
duced and the reliability provided
which make these motors fill every
requirement., and even exceed the
performances of the motors used
abroad.
Secrecy has surrounded the tests
that have been made at the Bureau
of Standards and it is not permis-
sible to give details, but it can be
stated that the results have sur
passed the hopes of those who have
been responsible for the development
of the motors. That they will do
the work required of them there is
no longer any room for skepticism.
Now that the motors have been
developed, there is no reason for de-
lay in carrying out the program. A
large number of manufacturers will
be given the duty of turning them
out, since all the parts are standard
lied. In some shops they will be
assembled complete, while other
factories will produce only certain
parts. Speed will be urged upon ev-
erybody concerned, with the idea of
producing $4,000 completed air
planes within a period of ten
months. The original estimates
called for 10000 machines, but the
government now believes it can build
$4,000 in that time.

Shortly before midnight Ed Blay-

More than two hundred members

poor tenant farmer class, with a
Eumber of negroes and a few In

FRENCH LOSSES
In WAR ONLY
1.28 PER CENT.
Casualties Shown to Be Much
Less Than Sup
posed


Washington, Aug. 6.-Allied losses,
heretofore pictured to the American
people with terrifying details of their
enormous extent, are shown, in a re-
markable letter to the Secretary of
War, to have been comparatively
small, and to be constantly decreas-
ing as the fighting forces increase
their ability to protect themselves.
The letter is written by Andre Tar
dieu, high commissioner of France
to the United States.
IL contains statement, also, Of
the wonderful achievements of the
french nation since the war began.
whlch, while it cannot fail to arouse
the admiration of the whole Amer
ican people, should also inspire them
to emulation.
France now has 100000 men in
the field, says M. Tardieu, and can
MAINTAIN this number effectively for
several years. She is stronger now
than at any time in the war. This
remarkable nation has also com
pletely re-equipped and Nrearmed the
Belgian, Serbian and Creek armies,
In view of the descriptions OF
frightful carnage on the battle
fronts, upon which the Imagination
or the American people has been
fed for the last two years, and which
mas undoubtedly caused much of the
teeling of opposition to the war in
this country, the figures of actual
losses presented by Mr.. Tardieu are
OF the greatest Importance.

utterly inaccurate information pub
lished in this country regarding mill

and especially in the French army.
Casualties Only 1.2S Per Cent.
He shows that in the last sis
months of 1916 the total casualties
OF the French army, including killed
wounded and taken prisoners
| amounted to just 1.2S per cent. OF
the men actually engaged in the
war.
This was the smallest percentage
of loss for which figures are obtain.

figures for each period of six months
from the beginning of the war show

of men lost, due undoubtedly &

In the battle of Charleroi anC
Marine, the battles into which tho
French fighting men rushed without

In the first six months of 1915, the
