FORMER MAYOR OF BIRMING.
HAM, ALA, ENDORSES TANLAC
"You Will Hardly Know Me When We
Meet Again for l Am Getting
Well" He Writes Friend.

MeeC Again IOr L Am GeCIng
Well" He Writes Friend.
One of the latest additions to the
list of leaders of thought and action
who have come forward with their un-
qualified endorsement of Tanlac is the
name of Hon. Frank V. Evans, former
Mayor of Birmingham, Ala, ex-State
Examiner of Public Accounts Of Ala
bama, and at one time editor of one
Of the south's greatest newspapers,
the Birmingham Agc-Herald.
Writing to personal friend in At
lanta Mr.. Evans says:
Birmingham, Ala, Feb. End.
" ........................ By the way, you will
hardly know me when we meet again,
because I am getting so well and
strong again. AS I told you while in
Atlanta last month, I have been suf-
fering long time with gastritis, as
the doctors call it-really disordered
stomach and consequent constipation,
pains in the shoulders, headache, belch-
ing, heartburn, loss of appetite, loss Of
sleep, and fainting spells. For weeks
I could not sleep on my back.
Zone week ago, upon recommends
ton of friends who had tried the medi-
cine, purchased one bottle of Tanlac
and began taking it. Since my second
dose I have suffered none of these
troubles to which I refer, and really
believe am going to get perfectly
well and strong again. Won't that be
wonderful at my age? Well, certain
it is that Tanlac is wonderful medi-
cine, and you know am not given to
putting mere experiments and am
rather orthodox as to materia medical
II shall continue the treatment with
perfect confidence in the final results.
Signed,
frank V. Evans"
Commenting on this splendid en-.
dorsement Of Tanlac c. F. Willis, in
ternational distributor of Tanlac, said
Although the list of endorsers is q
long one recall few leading names
that led both dignity and credit tt
the entire array. Some Of them are:
"Hon. C.. w. Mangum, of Atlanta
Ga, for three terms Sheriff Of Fulton
County; Hon. Moses r. Glenn, Super
intendent Of Printing for the State Of
Kentucky; Mr.. c. G. Cooper, Presi
dent of thte Georgia Cotton Oil Com

rumours are.
In the first place the revenue COL
lected for state purposes u . very
small proportion Of the total tax paid
Last year the state got less than nine
cents out Of every dollar paid out BY
North Dakota taxpayers. III . rest
went for county, school, township and
road purposes. The lafEest single
item Was for schools. The schools
It SIC out Of every dllar paid in tax
ation in North Dakota last year and
the counties came second with IN
average Of soc out Of every dollar.
The townships and cities each took
13c out Of every dollar. This proves
how impossible it would b to double
the taxes Of any individual even II
the state taxes were two or three
times as great, for the state taxes
are 4 very small proportion Of the
whole sum paid.
AZ . matter Of fact this year the
state will get trifls more than Ice
out every dollar paid in taxes. The
schools will got about 81 1-2e, the
counties nearly 27c, the townships
about 12c and the citi o. and villages
about Sc. The actual cost Of the
Nonpaftisan League program that
is the terminal elevators and flour
mills, the state bank and the home
building act-will be less than three
cents on every dollar paid for taxes.
This proves how presposterous It il
to blame the Nonpartisan League for
the slight increase in taxes.
tn estate taxes alone will be
doubled this year, but this will only
mean an increase Of eight cents on
every dollar paid in taxation. The
increase in state taxes Is not caused
by the League industrial program, but
it is brought about partly by the
normal growth Of the state with .
partly by the increased prices in all
consequent increase in expenditures,
lines, and partly b ythe neglect Of
previous administrations. Many Of
the state institutions were allowed to
run down and fall into disrepair by
previous administrations and the last
legislature was compelled to make
large appropriations to bring up the

JUDICIARY
Sheriffs' and Deputies Fees-Protee
ton Of ChiIdren-Other Matters

\ proposed increase in the fees Of
sheriffs and their deputies, an act to
amend the law relating to the pro-
ing to the mortgages on real estate
occupied the attention of the judi
ciary committee in its room on
Thursday afternoon.
Three matters. including an act tG
permit the town Of Southport to OBJ
tain a supply Of pure water: an &C:
to make valid the organization OF
the Second Christian Society OF Kit
terry. under the Revised Statutes. in
the year of our Lord 1913: an act to
authorize the town of Pressure Isle
to raise money to pay the purchase
price of the lot of land conveyed to
the state of Maine as a site for the
erection Of the buildings of the North
ern Maine Sanatorium. were laid on
the table for executive session.
Robert T. Whitekouse, chairman
of the State Board Of Charities and
Corrections. appeared in support OF
the act to amend the law relating to
the protection of children. The prin-
cipal changes proposed were the
taking of the appointment of the
agents out of the hands OF the coun
ty commissioners who now recon-.
mend such appointments and the sub.
stituton of State agents for county
agents as under the law as it now
stands.
Mrs. w. II. Newell Of Lewiston ap.
peared in opposition TO the measure
She claimed that the county agents
were doing good work. Tho State
agents took the children and put them
in homes far from the places where
they had formerly lived and it was
impossible to get any record of who
the children were and to whom they
had been sent. She cited sevsral
cases where children were sent tc
places where things were not right
and the children fell into bad sur
roundings and were i'll treated. She
was satisfied with the law as it now
stood.
Rep. Gray Of Troy spoke on the act
to increase the fees Of sheriffs and
their deputies. 1t is proposed to raise
the pay of all special deputies from
SO to 81 day and TO increase the
fees OF travel to 10 cents q mile and
the fee for service to 81.

Not Eractly ON Eremplar.

To understand fully the complete boue-
versment represented in the determination of
the Prussian minister of education to remove
from the public schools and other official build
ings remembrances of the kaiser it is to be re-
membered that during the not only were
such embems universally displayed as a mat
ter of course in conformity with unbroken
usage but in addition special orders were is
sued that the school teachers should make the
sacred person of the kaiser and his edifyng
course of life an exemplar for all the youth of
the land. But that day, as the minister OF
education we'll noted in the Prussan diet the
other day, is of the past Yet even in what
might be considered grim situation a certain
element of humor is shown in that the minister
recommended vacation time for the job of pack
ing up the various effigies Of majesty that yet
remain to disturb the even tenor of the Prus
sian child's life And this will be bad news
to Amerongen, where the effort is being made
daily by means of reports of consecrated at
titude toward the Scriptures and deep concern
for texts and religious exercises in order to
bear his burden as the wife piously writes, to
build up new legend of suffering kaiser
who deserves we'll of his people But the piety
is laid on a little too thick; the whitewash
won't last and that the Prussian diet is SO
hard-hearted as 10 go on a still hunt for the
busts that have up to date escaped iconoclas-
tic hands is bad omen for majesty in exile.
