SEATTLE MAN

Il NEVER FELT BETTER IN NY
LIFE" SAYS BLAND AFTER
TAKING TANLAC

"Tanlac has not only made a wonder.
full change in my wife. but have been
greatly benefited by it myself 1t has
put her in shape to where she has
gained twelve pounds in thirty days
and now she feels fine all the time
And as for myself, have picked up
twenty-f five pounds. and never felt bet
ter in my life"
This interesting and remarkable
statement was made by p. o. Bland of
2724 Fourth Ave, North Static,
Washington recently.
Continuing Mr. Bland said: MY
wife has had one of the worst cases of
stomach trouble. it seems to me per-
son could have, and everything she
would eat disagreed with her in way
that caused her the greatest of suf-
fering. During the past five years
We tried everything we heard of in our
efforts to help her and build her up,
but nothing seemed to do her any good.
Her appetite left her entirely, her COM
plexion was sallow, and her health was
all gone to pieces. She used to weigh
one hundred and seventy pounds, but
fell off to one hundred and thirty three
and was so weak she could hardly
raise her arms. For one solid month
before she began taking Tanlac, she
was down in bed, hardly able to move
"About the last of April she started
on Tanlac, and the results have been
wonderful. She has no trouble what
ever with her stomach now. She eats
a particle from it, and she has splen-
did appetite. She was so nervous and
miserable before she began taking
Tanlac she hardly knew what a good
nights sleep was, but now she sleeps
the whole night through just like
child. Her color is clearing up and
she is able to do all her housework
without any trouble.
When l noticed the wonderful bene-
fits she was getting from Tanlac, l
started taking the medicine myself, as
had been suffering for sometime
with Indigestion and constipation and
was badly run down. had fallen off
to one hundred and forty-two pounds
and was still losing. don't suffer
particle with indigestion now, no mat
ter what l eat, and l am always ready
with good appetite when meal time
comes. now weigh one hundred and
siXty-seven pounds. making a gain of
twenty-five, pounds, and my wife and
are both glad to recommend Tanlac,
as it has done far more than we ever
expected of it."
Tanlac is sold in Julesburg by 2. N.
Cleveland and in Sedgwick by w. C.

Utah Hog Production Helped.

Hog production in Utah recently has
received much stimulus because small
farmers, especially those some distance
from railroads, have been able to get
their hogs to market at greatly reduced
expense through cooperate shipping
More than 100 farmers shipped Is car
loads to the North Salt Lake stock yards
in three months. The hogs came from
sections IS TO 30 miles from railroad
shipping point, and in some instances
were brought in wagons by the growers
to central point, where automobile
trucks were used to transport them to
the shipping point Others were shipped
by local freight to a central point, where
carloads were assembled Each lot of
hogs was marked by clipping the hair,
and was yarded, fed and sold separately.
Shipping expense was prorated, and each
owner received an individual check. The
plan has not only increased shipments
but improved the offerings, the bureau Of
markets reports.

TORPEDO FAILED OF MARK
But Struck Another German Submarine
as Wave Lifted Intended Victim.

London, Dec. 2l.-Now that censorship
rules have been much relaxed, extraordi-
nary stories of close shayes and unex-
pected happenings are being published,
Hard to beat is one related by the Liver
pool Evening Express. 1t tells how a
torpedo from Uboat passed under an
intended yietim-which at the psyche
logical moment was lifted beyond its
reach by a big wave-and administered
the quietus to another enemy submarine
on the other side of the steamer. Here is
the papers account of it,:
The British steamer Alories, command
ed by Captain Frederick Taylor, was off
Bardsey island and had cargo of timber
from Rossare to Garston. There was a
heavy sea on and the ship was pitching
about.
The first to see the first submarine was
the gunner, who also spotted the track of
torpedo which if something like a
miracle had not happened, would have
struck them amidships Nothing could
be done in time to turn the ship clear of
danger, but heavy sea lifted high on its
crest the steamer, which was only draw
ing q few feet of water and then those
who had just been expecting to be torpe-
doed themselves, saw a second Uboat
which was working in conjunction with
the one on the other side of the steamer,
struck by the torpedo.
They heard deafening explosion and
saw a mountain of spray thrown up into
vIe air.

with at least three blankets and a wa

In addition to all this, every soldier
on outdoor duty has a leather waistcoat

Dr. Metaxa declared that the great

back to his lair, and that for the Greek
people the day of liberty and national
unity shall at last dawn"
In support of the Greek demand for
the restoration of the territory he out
lined, Mr.. Metaxa review the history
of the Byzantine empire and the centur-
les during which it maintained civiliza-
tons bulwark against the hordes Of
Turks and Bulgarians. In Constantine

One hundred and forty-two negro men
agents and 1914 negro women agents of
the United States department of agri-
culture and the state agricultural col
leges, were at work in the southern
states during the fiscal year ending June
30, 1918. These agents were very sue
cessful in stimulating the growing of
more food crops, giving special attention
to home gardens and the canning and
drying of fruits and vegetables for home
use. They also materially assisted in
helping in the labor problem by urging
negroes on farms to work six days in the

tok, and the prompt medical assistance
rendered that distressed country has
resulted In saving thousands Of lives.
The rescue work done by the Red
Gross for the Czecho-Slovak refugees
has assumed prodlgious proportions
and is daily becoming greater in scope.
Cabled advices received from Vladi-
vostok report that more than 10000
Czecho-Slovak refugees, 1000 Of them
children, are now being cared for by
the American Red Cross at that city. In
addition to this relief work, the cables
state that the Red Cross Medical or
gal:zation is attending hundreds of
wounded Czecho-Slovak soldiers who
have reached V%ladivostok after weeks
Of the most desperate fighting against
the pro-German forces.
The condition Of the refugees, who
were found living in tents and freight
cars along the Chinese Eastern Rail-
way west of Hardin, was pitiable. A
majority Of them are farmers, though
there are many coal miners and rail-
way employees in the number, people
who were driven from their homes by
the Bolsheviki, and some German and
Austrian war prisoners.
The work Of administering to the
wounded Czecho-Slovak fighters, who
steadfastly refused to recognize the

ing the distress Of the homeless civil

plight %ras brought to the attention Of

work was directed by Charles X. Mo-
