Immediately after his address,
which was his first public discus
sion of peace-time aims of the or
ganization since his recent appoint
ment as its head by President Will
son, DR.. Farrand sailed for France
to prepare for an international con-
ference of Red Cross societies which
will meet in Geneva 80 days after
the signing of peace. The interna-
tional organization will be proposed
at this conference.
Must Soon Raise Funds.
DR.. Farrand warned Red Cross
workers that they would be called
on for continued service for a long
time after peace had been declared
and announced that a nationwide
appeal for funds 10 carry on the Or
ganization's work would be made
soon.
I'VE shall postpone the call as
long as possible" he added, but
! don't mind telling you that the
bottom of the Red Cross treasury
is in sight, and it would be quite
impossible for the American people
not to act in this particular field"
Discussing the proposal of the
organization of the international
Red Cross, DR., Farrand declared the
war had shown that the war basis
of the Red Cross has become out
grown"
THE war" he said, has shown
that the great possibilities of the
Red Cross lie in time OF peace, and
we propose now that not only shall
the American Red Cross assume its
responsibility in the United States
and possibly take the lead in an in
ternational movement, but we now
assume and propose that the allied
Red Crosses, that the Red Crosses
Of the central powers, shall all unite
in an international movement for
the prevention of disease, for the
relief of suffering, for the possibili-
ity of making the word what the
war was fought fora better place
to live in"
Peace Aims To Be Realized.
OF the peace aims of the American
Red Cross, DR.. Farrand said:
Il happen to be one of those who
for some 10 or IS years have been
looking for the day when there
might be some organization strong
enough, fit enough, representative
enough to coordinate all of those
random and unofficial efforts in the
direction of the prevention of dis
ease and the protection of public
health, upon which the welfare of
any nation depends.
1T seems to me that now for the
first time in the history of the world,

A SURPRISING CHANGE
Remarkable Improvement Shown
Il By E. G. Bates.
Ten Years Trouble Overcome by
Tanlac.

"A number of people who ride my
car every day have asked me what
I've been doing to cause such a Won
derful change in my condition, and all
the boys who work for the Company
say they never saw me looking so
we'll" said L. G. Bates. a popular
street car motorman, living at 110S
North Park street. Bloomington, Illi-
nois, in relating his experience with
Tanlac. recently.
well, it is astonishing" he con-
tinued, ''how Tanlac has put me on
my feet when I was completely down
and out and nothing else ever did me
the least bit of good. 1 certainly do
feel thankful and everybody will
agree with me that I have the best
OF reasons for praising Tanlac when
/ tell them I hadn't been able to eat
a meal in ten years without suffering
agony afterwards. 1 would almost
double up with cramping pains caused
by the gas on my stomach and 1 would
get so dizzy and blind that if 1 hadn't
had something to hold on to 1 would
have fallen off my car. If I ventured
TO eat anything except something very
light 1 would have to lay off for a
week and my work was just a drag
and a burden to me for years. 1 was
so badly constipated that had to take
a laxative every night, and 1 took so
much strong medicine for indigestion
that my stomach was in terrible
shape. 1 got in such a bad fix that
1 couldn't stay on my run more than
half the time and when 1 did work I
was so weak and run down that I was
in misery all the time.
Il knew very we'll I couldn't go
much longer unless I got something
to- help me. but I was at a loss to
know what to do. It was about this
time that 1 heard some of the boys
talking about what a great medicine
Tanlac was. I also noticed in the
Papers where 1t had done some good
work. so 1 bought a bottle, and It
heats the world the way it helps a
man when he's down and out. Just a
few doses stopped gas forming on my
stomach. Then I quit having cramps
and dizzy spells and was so much
pleased that 1 took care never to
miss a dose Of Tanlac So I stuck
right to the treatment and now 1 never
feel a sign of my old troubles.
am now on my run every day and,
IS 1 said. all the boys say they never
saw me looking better. But no Won
der I'm looking better. I haven't
missed eating a big meal three times
y day since right soon after I started
on Tanlac, and I am never bother
q particle with cramps, dizziness, con-
etipation or anything else. In fact,
! am as well and strong as 1 could
wish to be, and I'm here to tell you
that's a great change, for 1 was
doubtful about ever being any better
So it is that 1 have the best of rea-
sons for feeling thankful and 1 will
always boost Tanlac for the good
health now enjoy"
TANLAC is sold in Topeka by Tully-
MacFarland Drug Co, S35 Kansas
Ave, and 729 Kansas Ave-Adv.
