RESULTS were
FAR BEYOND HER
HOPES, She SAYS
Declares She Knows From
Own Experience What
Tanlac Will Do.

The list of testimonials in be-
half of Tanlac, the medicine that
is accomplishing such surprising
and gratifying results in Tacoma
and vicinity, grows daily as new
tests of it's powers are made. Miss
Alice Wolford, who resides at
|S1O3 Twelfth avenue, Seattle,
Wash, recently said:
81 am now in splendid condi-
ton and my recovery is due en-
tirely to Tanlac. It has bene-
fitted me so much that my mother
and brother are now taking IT.,
too, and it is doing them so much
good that we are all praising it.
"A little over three months ago
I began having trouble with my
stomach and kept getting worse
until everything I ate hurt me. l
had to be very careful and the
few things / did eat would fer
ment, causing gas, smothering
spells and much pain. was con-
SANITY belching up sour, undl-
gested particles of food and had
very disagreeable taste in my
mouth all the time. also had
rheumatism in my ankles, and
whether I was standing up or sit
ting down, the pain never let up.
There was a continual pain right
under my shoulders and, in fact.
I ached all over all the time. |
was very restless at night, slept
poorly, and would get up in the
mornings just as tired as when |
retired at night.
Il just kept suffering this way,
and seemed to be getting worse
all the time until ! began taking
Tanlac. I decided to try 1t from
what others said about it and now
I know for myself that it's fine.
I have taken three bottles and
have been relieved entirely of the
rheumatic pains and everything
else that bothered me. My ap-
petite was never better and ] can
eat just anything | want without
suffering the least bit from gas
and Indigestion. I sleep soundly
the whole night thru and feel
thoroly rested and ready for my
work in the morning. So | feel
deeply indebted to Tanlac for the
splendid health l now enjoy. 1t
has accomplished all I bought it
for-even more than I expected
and it's a pleasure for me to
recommend it to others
A tired, overworked stomach
and kidneys, often produced by
too much hastily eaten food, can
cause innumerable ailments,
among them being dyspepsia,
nervous break-downs, blood trou-
bles and even rheumatism. Peo-
pie SO affected, and there are
thousands of them, are logy and
nervous and feel tired. They are
WORKOUT after a little exertion
and are moody and depressed.
They also are apt to suffer from
sleeplessness and, as a general
rule, lose rapidly in weight. These
are symptoms of overworked vital
organs which need cleansing and
toning up. Tanlac, the powerful
reconstructive tonic, does thu very
thing.
Tanlac is sold in Tacoma by
French Drug Co., under the per-
sonal direction OF special Tan
lac representative. - Advertise

A FORWARD STEP

The allowance to United States mar
Shals in Alaska OF funds with which
to detect crime is great step for
ward for the proper administration OF
JUSTICE in the North. Heretofore the
officials of the department of justice
have had no funds which they could
expend for the investigation of crime.
Action could only be taken after com
plant had been had and a warrant
sworn out. This even applied to such
crimes as murder. Unjust criticism
has been constantly made that the of
tcials of the department of justice
were not taking proper steps to ap,
prehend offenders against the law.
when as matter of fact there have
never been any fnuds which could be
used for investigation The use of
John Doe warrants has long since been
ordered discontinued.
There have been instances when a
warrant has been sworn out against a
known defender and expense incurred
to attempt his arrest, but service has
rot been accomplished owing to the
departure of the criminal in the mean
while to parts unknown. In such
cases the marshal has been unable to
receive reimbursement for his serv-
ices.
Tn" ruling of the attorney general
places the administration of law on an
entirely new footing, due entirely to
the harmonious relations existing be
tween the delegate and the governor.
Without such harmony no progress
can bee made in Alaska Juneau EN-

and our war requirements make it i'm.
possible for Us to pay our bills in
those neutral countries as We have
been in the habit of paying them in
times OF peace, viz. through tn" snip
mont OF manufactured goods and com
moditics which those countries are
eager to buy from us. This means
that certain amount of debt to those
countries must be paid tor in credits
or in gold.
This brief statement will, ! hope
make clear to your constituents the
great necessity that exists for the
maintenance of gold production at the

ment of the soundness of Mr.. Nc
Adoos views respecting this matter
Let us rather direct attention to what
may be done to ameliorate the pres
ent adversely of the gold miners. They
must bow to the operation of immuta-
BILE economic laws But is 1t too much
to ask that they be exempted from all
federal taxation? We think not. We
hope that this important matter may
receive adequate attention in the

THE PLIGHT OF GOLD MINERS

The present plight of the gold min
crs has been the subject of much dis
cussion They get the same number
OF dollars for an ounce of their prod
uct that they used to, but their dol
lars will buy only about half as much
labor and material; in other words,
their operating costs have risen enor-
mously. Some publicists have argued
that gold is non-essential, that the
gold mines ought to be shut down, so
as to release their men for the mining
of copper lead and other metals di-
selves. have argued to the contrary.
The secretary of the treasury has now
EXPRESSED the view of the administra-
ton on this subject in letter to the
Alaskan delegate in congress, as fol
lows:
81 beg leave to acknowledge receipt
OF your letter of June |, in relation 10
the present conditions surrounding the
production OF gold in Alaska, | fully
appreciate that, with the rising cost
OF raw material and labor. and with
fixed value for their output, the gold
miners OF the world are facing diff
cult conditions. | should be sorry,
however, II for this reason there were
any relaxation in the effort to produce
gold. At no time has this country so
much required the largest possible
production of gold as at present. Next
to food and ammunition, gold is one
of the most.needed war essentials. In
order to place the enormous amount
of government bonds required to
finance our war expenditures, large
credit structure will inevitably be
erected on our gold reserves, and II
Is necessary that those reserves.

King of Montenegro
Denounced by Serbs

Thirtyfive Serbian Nontenegrins at

Lewis. across the st. Lawrence River
from Quebec, have written to Secretary
Lansing on the eve of their departure
overseas that self determination for
Montenegro would be an injustice to
Serbia and to the Serbs dwelling in
Montenegro iAey wrote:
"A separate Montenegro would be the
greatest CT crimes against the prin-
clples of the peoples freedom and a
great injury to the symbolized idea OF
all our people. King Nicholas is eN-
clusively for a separate Montenegro,
and in 4 most fatefu moment and
with determined intention he sold the
country and surrendered the army and
the people Ct Montenegro to the enemy
Such King, with his personal min
listers, brought into the Cabinet after
the fall Of three other cabinets since
the capitulation. cannot and must never
represent the Serbs of Montenegro in
the question Of national unity Of south

national interest

self-called rulers and their representa-
tlves who are falsifying to the world
