RATIONS FOR ENGLAND
Food Dictator Has Evolved Plan to
Be Put in Operation Soon.

London, Jan. compulsory ra-
tioning is to be put % effect in Eng
land soon, it was d 3unced officially
today. The food controller, Baron
Rhondda, Stated that his department
has completed plan of rationing and
that it would be carried out as soon
as the sanction of the cabinet had
been received.
Much difficulty has been exper-
fenced recently, chiefly among the
poorer classes, in obtaining supplies
of some articles of food but this has
been due to faulty distribution rather
than to lack of supplies. Provisional
arrangements were made soon after
the beginning of unrestricted submar
inc warfare tor the issuance of food
cards, but the plan was abandoned
for the time on account of the success
of the voluntary rationing campaign.
The English labor unions have made
insistent demands for compulsory ra
tioning, stating that the present sys
tenn was unfair and at the labor con-
gresS last week the government was
warned that crisis would arise I'M
less energetic measures were taken.

JOHN N. CRADTREE GAINED 34 POUNDS
Quit Taking Tanlac Eighteen Months Ago-Still Retains Weight and Feels Fine.
 Suffered 20 Years.

"I have actuelly gained thirty-four pounds on three bottles of Tanlac and now know what it is to enjoy life and good health, after suffering for twenty years" said John M.Crabtree, a general merchant at Five Mile sta ton A. Dallas, Texas, a few days ago.
 "l bought my first bottle over eigh- teen months ago, when 1 lived at Gallatin, Tenn" continued MT. Crab tree, and I want to tell you, it was the best investment l everma de in my life. l began to improve almost from the start and three bottles simp- ly made me over into new man. I have enjoyed the best of health ever since.
 "I suffered with catarrh of the stom- act and indigestion for twenty years and for eight months before I start ed taking Tanlac. l had to live all most entirely on cereals. My stom- ach was full of gas and l suffered with awful headaches all the time. I was as nervous as a man gets to be and could hardly sleep at all and could get no ease or comfort any time. spent nearly all of one whole year in bed and was unable to do anything at all and l fell off in weight to one hundred and eighteen pounds. I had all the symptoms of catarrh and just can't describe all the suffering l had to endure from it for those twenty years.
 ''I kept reading about Tanlac in the papers but couldn't make up my mind to try it. because had tried so many different kinds of medicines and had been disappointed each time. But when my friends, who knew my dread ful condition, begged me 1 bought a bottle and began taking it and the results in my case have been nothing short of wonderful After using my third bottle I found I had increased in weight from one hundred and eigh- teen pounds to one hundred and fif- ty-two, making an actual gain of thir- ty-iour pounds-all my troubles were gone and I was feeling like another man.
 Although it has been a year and half since Tanlac relieved me of my awful catarrhal trouble and indises- tion and made life worth living, still retain my increase in weight and feel simply fine all the time. I've heen eating anything I want all the time-in fact anything anybody else Can-and sleeping like a child every night Being made into a strong and healthy man after suffering as long as did is enough to make me rejoice and I'm glad to endorse Tanlac be- cause I know what it has done for me You can just tell anyone to ask me about Tanlac and I'll tell them what I told you"

WARDING OFF AGE

Fat is commonplace-midd1e aged. II

the period OF youth. Hence it lessons Rer
influence. She may charm stil1-by MINI
bleness of wit--but that indefinite fascina-
ton fine figure yields has fled from her.
Forever? No! for it can be regained,
and that easily. Youth as expressed in the
straight front, the lissome hip, the wavy
outline, is not beyond recall. Let any
woman who is too well filled out take a

meal and at bedtime. The sprightliness
of youth will come back to her. Off viii

Try this method. No exercising or diet
ing is necessary to take off a pound a day.
The Tablet will do it alone. No wrinkles
or haggard lines will form; instead the
health, the brightness and the litheness
will increase. The Marmola Prescription
Tablet is absolutely noninjurious (being
made of the famous fashionable formula

it is also inexpensive, large case, enough
to show results. costing, at any drug store

CORNERED WOOL !?
New York Starts Probe of Ger
man Plot in c. S.
Wealthy Wool Merchant Impii-
Gated in 1t Is Arrested.

New York, March 15.-Merton r.
Lewis. attorney general of New York
state, today began an investigation
thru public hearings to determine
whether certain American wooden
manufacturers with Prussian agents
in this country sought to corner the
worlds supply of wool and cotton
for the purpose of breaking a posi-
BILE British economic embargo after
the war.
Representatives of the textile alli-
ance, a semi-official agency of the
British and American governments,
will be among the witnesses and will
testify concerning documents seized
when Hugo Schmidt, interned enemy
alier- and so-called paymaster in this
country for Bolo Pasha now under
sentence of death for treason in
France, was taken into custody. Re-
Gently the federal authorities arrest
Eugene Schwerdt, a wealthy woolen
merchant of New York and Boston,
in connection with the wool boarding
scheme.
When embargoes were imposed to
prevent shipments of wool from
reaching Germany, Schwerdt and his
associates are alleged to have made
extensive purchases thru Americans
holding import licenses who acted as
nom-na. buyers.
A. the investigation witnesses will
be examined to determine whether
there is basis for prosecution of those
believed T., be implicated in the
scheme.
