A Few Bottles of Tanlac Re-

clares Houston Man.

after | spent over two thousand dol
lars for medicines for my wife without
doing her any good, it sure does seem
wonderful to me that lust few bottles
of Tanlac have restored her to health
again is the remarkable statement
made few days ago by Harry G.
French who resides at All La Branch
street Houston, Texas.
Several months ago" he continued,
my wiie's health failed, she lost her
appetite and, before | realized it, her
condition had gotten to be so bad that
she was in danger Of complete break
down. What little she forced herself
to eat disagreed with her and she suf-
fcred agonies from the gas that rose
from the undgested food in her stom-
ach. She was badly constlpated and
suffered from such terrible headaches
that her nervous system went all TO
pieces and she couldn't sleep more than
half the night She worried so much
over her condition and became so de
spohdent that she would hardly speak
dozen words during the day
Il got several specialists to prescribe
for her and got her to take many dii-
ferent medicines and positively nothing
did her the least good but Tanlac Soon
after she started on her first bottle |
noticed that she was picking up and get
ting to be more cheerful and she has
continued to improve right along ever
since She eats anything she wants
now and it all agrees with her she talks
and laughs most all the time and is
always in good humor She sleeps
like a child and nothing worries her at
all In fact she is entirely like a dif-
ICrent person"

SHORTAGE OF Fish
DELAYS The MAIL
Scarcity Causes CurtaiIment of
Motive Power by Which
Mail Is Carried in Alaska.

Shortage of fish Is interfering with
the mail in Alaska. On account of
their scarcity, the motive power by
which the mail Is carried In that cold
territory Is curtailed. An abundance
of fish, according to a report to the
post Office department, is essential to
the prompt delivery across the region
of ice and snow, and a necessary sup
ply Is not to be had.
The mail carrier out from Anchor
age, Alaska, wrote to the department
under the date of March %. 1918:
"Your letter of February q, 1913.
is at hand, and I notice the late ar
rivals of mail as indicated In same,
The whole trouble Is on account OF
my dogs. / was unable, and still am,
to get fish for them as 1t Is not to be
obtained in the country. The dogs l
use on this mail are wolf dogs that
have been worked on fish all their
lives. 1t is almost impossible to change
from a fish diet to cooked feed and
work them. / have done the best l
could to keep this mail moving and
have had to stop and rest my dogs sew
eral times while the mail was in trans
1t as they would not stand 1t. . . +.
All of the late mails were caused on
that account. A.. i have man.
aged, however, to keep this end (Sew-
ard-Anchorage) running on schedule
time and believe in a satisfactory man.
ner owing to the fact that am on
this run myself, drive n of my own
teams and / have been able to keep 1t
going somehow. The mail is
moving now better. Our dogs are get
ting SO they stand up under cooked

LAST OF FAMILY
INDIAN WOMAN DIES AT THE
AGE OF 90 YEARS.

Pierre, May 22.-One of the real
pioneers of South Dakota is gone in
the death of Mrs. Paul Narcell at
Cherry Greek. She died at the age
of SO years, so far as anything def
mite could be learned of her age.
She was the Indian wife of Paul Mar
cell, one of the young French fur
traders who was sent out by the
American Fur company of St. Louis,
when they established their post al
the mouth of Bad river nearly 10O
years ago. After the fur trade died
down Narcell, who had taken an In.
dian wife, settled on Cheyenne river
and built up a fortune as a stockman
A number of years ago he died anC
left his children wealthy, but they
soon scattered it and through dissi
patton the sons met their death, ex
istence of the family name dying
with the mother. The last of the
family, a grandson, was killed neal
Dupree several years ago.

UNUSUAL CASE
DRY COUNTY CIRCUIT
COURT.

Burke, May 22.-At a term of cir
cult court for Gregory county held
here, n of the cases disposed of was
that involving the ownership of a
tract of land valued at $4,000. The
title of the case was Olson VS.. Re-
nard, the land involved containing a
full section. In 1904 Olson gave a
deed to the land to Renard, who was
president of a bank at Wausa. Neb.,
to secure a note of $4,000, bearing
6 per cent interest, with the under
standing that the land was to be sold
to clear up the Indebtedness against
it. Renard has had possession OF
the land and collected the rents. but
had never made an accounting to
Olson. On the other hand. no inter
est had been paid on the note. Re
nard claimed clear title to the land.
Judge williamson. after hearing the
evidence in the case, held that the
deed was but a trust deed and order
ed Renard to make an accounting OF
the rents, ETC., collected from the
place, and gave Renard an equity in
the tract of land to the amount Of the
note with accrued interest.
