GLAD TO TESTIFY
'Tanlac Is Worth Weight in
Gold" She Declares.
Mrs. Van 0rman Willing for
World to Know.

"Tanlac has certainly been worth
it's weight in gold to me and l dom
know what 1 would do without it, =
said Mrs. Grace Van Orman, of 1904
Buchanan street. Topeka, the other
day.
while I never cared much about
seeing my name in the papers," she
continued, eff my experience with Tan
lac will help any other sufferer l shall
be glad to give it to the world For
over three years my stomach was In
a terrible condition and my sufferings
from indigestion were something
awful. My appetite at times seemed
to be morbid and abnormal, but soon
after eating anything my food would
sour and bloat me up with gas, and
would have such a tight feeling in my
chest and stomach, and so much pain
around my heart that 1 would be dis
tressed for hours. Even after going
to bed at night this gas would make
me feel so miserable 1 just couldn't
rest and would have to get up and take
soda to get it off my stomach before
/ could get a wink of sleep. There
was a constant gnawing pain in my
stomach, my nerves were all on edge
and kept me excited and wretched
most all the time.
81 had seen Tanlac so highly recon-
mended that l decided to get a bottle
and give it a trial. BY the time I had
finished my first bottle 1 was feeling
so much better that I kept it up till
I had taken several more bottles, and
I just can't tell you what a wonderful
change it has made in me. Why. that
stomach trouble and indigestion are
completely relieved and I never suf-
fer bit from gas or that bloated feel
ing like / did before. That awful
gnawing pain in my stomach is clean
gone. my appetite is normal and
l., I~i,,
good. too. l am satisfied. both from
experience and observation, that Fan

JUNK WAS NOT THEIRS
Six Negro Boys Arrested When Try

Six negro boys ranging from to 1 2
years of age were rounded up Monday
afternoon by Detective Tim Donovan,
who found them in an alley attempt
ing to dispose Of several sacks of BIZ
cycle tires, copper and other junk to
secondhand man. Upon investiga-
ton it was found that most of the
junk was taken from the barn of the
College Hill bakery.
The secondhand man volunteered
the use of his truck and the boys were
taken to police headquarters, where
they gave their names as Robert
Breakbill, Leo Breakbill, Harold
Burns, Mildred Skaggs, Willie Dean
and Langston Gerten. They were
turned over to the juvenile court and
taken to the detention home. Some
of the boys have been in trouble on
other occasions. it was said.

Unfortunate Expression.

Although our new war secretary,
Lord Miner, cannot exactly be said
to shine as a humorist, he can enjoy
a good story against himself, as wit
ness the following, which he is fond
of relating.
Some years ago, fresh from his
South African triumphs, he addressed
an audience Of undergraduates at his
old university.
1--WE must remember not merely
the beauty of the individual colleges,
but the beauty of Oxford as a whole.
And what a whole it IS"
"Hear, hearp yelled the varsity
men. "Yes, what a holeI" they
groaned. "What a beastly holel"
Then 1t dawned upon Lord Miner
that this was a sentiment he would
rather have expressed differently

ALWAYS HUNGRY AT NIGHT
Kansas City Man Beginning to Fear
He Is Afflicted With an Un-
patriotic Stomach.

A Kansas City man who is trying to
be very patriotic is beginning to won
der If he is not cursed with a pro-
German stomach. During the daytime,
when he is up on his feet, he has no
trouble observing the food regulations,
but just as soon as he lies down at
night to go to sleep, his stomach takes
on his back and refuses to give way
to Morpheus until he eats again.
Sometimes 1 manage to get to sleep
without taking on an extra cargo of
food" he says. But when 1 do 1 usu-
ally wake up in the middle of the night
with a mad craving for food, and the
only way l can get back to sleep is to
get up, go out to the kitchen and cook
myself some hot food"
The man says he has tried his best
to overcome this hunger habit, but is
unable to do so. Several times a week
he will go to the kitchen in the middle
of the night, put on a skillet and fry a
piece Of ham, or bacon and eggs, and,
after eating al ordinary size meal, will
go back to bed and sleep. He says he
has tried eating fruits and light food,
but his stomach will have none of these
and insists upon meats. Often when he
Is standing over a skillet dressed only
In his pajamas In the dead of night he
says he feels like a thief stealing food,
while others who periodically observe
all of Mr.. Hoover's regulations are
asleep.
Maybe you have a tapeworm with
Teutonic leanings," a friend suggested.
Maybe l have" the man replied,
sadly, "but 1 think it Is an inherited
habit that is just getting a grip on me.
l remember when my folks lived on a
farm near Pomeroy. When l was Just
a kid my father used to have to get
up in the night and eat as I do. But it
is only recently that l have becomo
addicted to the habit, and it is only
since the food regulations became so
strict that 1 have worried about it."
Maybe your wife's cooking is not as
good as it used to be-" was the next
logical suggestion.
Don't you ever think it isn't, young
man, the gluttOn of the darkness re-
piled Indignantly. "My wife, sir, is the
best cook in Kansas City! You may &C
cuse me of having German tapeworm
or of having an unpatriotic stomach,
but you must not reflect upon my
wife's culinary art. Good evening, sirl"

Here is something really brilliant,
fairly thrilling-the last word in sets
for motor wear. Just as colored yarns
had established themselves as the
smartest of trimmings for hats and
other things, a new material, as soft
as silk and as shiny as glass, floated
over the horizon of fashion. This ma
terial and yarns were simply made for
one another-modistes discovered it
Immediately, and they were Joined in
this lovely motor set-made for real
service. There is a hat and a bag and
an irresistible belt that supports the
mascot all Paris is wearing. "Nan-
nette" and "Rlntintin," a grotesQue
little maid and her mate. both made of
yarn, dangle from this belt and ex-
change condolences while they protect
their fair owner from harm.
This new material reminds one OF
patent leather but resembles it in the
way that plaid chiffon looks like ging-

IEeIs Are EeIs,

John Treadwell Nichols, assistant
curator of the department of ichthy-
Ology of the American Museum of Nat
ural History, has done his bit for the
food supply by an effort to lessen the
prejudice against cells.
The chapter of the cookbook devoted
to cells should begin: "First catch
your eel; then forget how it looks"
The trouble with eating eels is at
the start. After the first plate of cells
the reluctant customer is ready for
more. -
Mr.. Nichols assures us that cells
have, in fact, no relationship with
snakes. They have developed their
form and %sinuosity by their habit of
poking into cracks and crannies of
waterbeds. They are true fishes and
should not be victims Of the prejudice
against snakes.
The classic way to cook cells is to
skin them, clean them, cut them into
lengths and fry in butter. MANY per-
sons" says Mr.. Nichols, find them
delicious" That's no lie.-Buffalo En-
quirer.

An uncommon little blue jacket has
a circular cape collar which entirely

above the waist. The small turnover
collar is of chalk-white pique, which is
the prevailing material for collars and

attractive front of this unusual little
jacket shows the cape does not meet
or fasten, but falls from the neck in
an overwhelming opening, which finally
forms two points. Down one side of

Shopping bags and work bags have
become Indispensable now that women
are busying themselves about so many
things, and especially since they are
making 1t a rule to carry small par
cells for themselves. Already the shops
are beginning to place new ones on
display, anticipating the holidays that
always bring a tremendous demand
for bags of all kinds. This years
business is expecting a demand for
bags and for the materials of which
they are made, that will exceed all
previous records. For the mood of
the public favors useful gifts at holi-
day time and the bag holds first place
among them.
1t is in new mountings and trim
mings that the new bags differ from
those Of last year. Metal and
celluloid divide honors in frames and
mountingS for both shopping and work
bags. Work bags are a trif1e smaller
than they were-or those made of rib
bon and silk are. Many very practi-
cal bags are made Of c%retonne and
lined with sateen and those intended
for daily service in all kinds of wealth

Rlntintin must have some means of
support.
1t happens that a black taffeta frock
makes the best of back grounds for
this set, but it is made to be worn
with any sort of street dress and will
not clash with any of the quiet fash
ionable colors. 1t is called a motor set
but may be counted upon for other
wear and is either really rain proof or
has put up a most successful and con-
vincing camouflage.

PoIand's Lono-Lost Crown.

When the Prusslans took possession
of Cracow, in 1894, the Polish king
dom ceased to exist. The king of
Prussia coveted the traditional dia.
dem of Poland's kings for his own
adornment. 1t had, however, disap-
peared m~ysteriously, and the Prussian
king was baked of his wish. In Janu-
airy, 1914, seven months before the
world war broke out, during a severe
storm, lightning struck a stately elm
close to the city and brought to light
a secret treasure which had lain bur-
led at its roots for 12S years, the long
lost crown of Poland.
