Remarkable New Remedy.
(By the "Tanlac MANI

No other medicine has been quite as
successful as Tanlac. In the State of
Kentucky alone a quarter of a million
of its residents are now taking Tanlac
and expressing an abiding faith in its
powers as a superior preparation.
The sale is unprecedented. The rea-
son is obvious-clear. Tanlac contains
real merit. 1t is a medicine that ap-
peals to the best people everywhere,
men and women who judge it impair
TALLY. The result is always a Tanlac
verdict.
Men and women who take Tanlac
fonce invariably return for the second
bottle. The medicine accomplishes
actual results and that is the reason
why its popularity repeats itself and
its demand is SO phenomenal wherever
it is introduced.
Tanlac obtains of that singular pur-
ity and efficiency that Immediately

WHAT | THINK OF THE
LEAGUE OF NATIONS

lThe following poetry was written
by Private John Yates, of Supply Co.
311th Infantry, 3rd Battalion, and was
sent to The Pleasantyille Press by
him from La Bourbaule, France, under
date of Jan. 4.-Ed.1
Now this awful war has come to a
close,
Will it start again? No one knows.
We all do hope that peace will soon be
signed
And all traces of wal left far behind.
And if peace is not signed in the right
way,
Then we may expect war again some
day;
Let's hope and pray that We'll have
no more war
And that peace may reign foreyermore
Now this League of Nations, in Presi-
dent Wilson's speech,
Just think it over, l think it's a peach.
No more war for all mankind,
No better news could anyone find.
Now that means peace for all the
world,
Where no more troubles will be un-
furled,
Where no more b~attlefields, nor shot,
nor shell,
Will send good human souls straight
into hell.
This League of Nations | truly believe
Is good for anyone to keep up his
sleeve.
Just think, dear ones, what war has
done, !,
1t has caused the death of many a
dear mothers son.
That's why I do hope and also pray,
No more war-God bless that day.
When all countries this League of Ma
lions have signed,
No happier world will you find.
Now, dear friends in dear U. S. A,
Stand by President Wilson both night
and day;
Leave it to him to settle this peace
plan,
I know you will be satisfied, both wo-
man and man.
Just think of what this war has done,
1t has overthrow the Kaiser and also
his son;
No more Prussianism in the land,
We have won the battle, so in League
of Nations firmly stand.
Let every true American by President
Wilson stand,
And forever think what he has done
for our land;
He has stood by us soldiers and all
mankind,
And in all this creation no better Pres
ident could you find.
Stand by the President whatever you
do,
And let him get this League of Ma
lions put through,
Then there will be no more battle, nc
more hate,
Let the League of Nations be signed,
God bless that date.
If the League of Nations is signed in
the right way,
Then peace and happiness will dwell
forever, both night and day;
1t will mean no more troubles will
rise to war,
And that's one great thing that never
happened before.
Now. dear friends, please bear this in
mind,
No better proposition could you find,
This League of Nations l do adore,
It means peace and happiness to all
forevermore.
Now to all true Americans, by Presi-
dent Wilson stand,
And listen to the League of Nations,
his great command,
Stand by him firmly, whatever you do,
And you never will regret it, no not
one of you.

from Everett.
Youth would not so often be dis
appointed if youth were not so OPP
timistic. Because Everett had been
kind, because he had appeared to
good advantage in my home, because
he had shown me attention, built
air castles of what he would do
when we reached our own home
again-air castles that crumbled be-
fore we had been home an hour.
He did not go up to the house with
me, but stopped at the Office to look

White River Oil Field

The following is from late issue
OF the Grand Junction News. and
shows that our White River Oil Field
is well thought OF by eastern oil
men:
"Lucius A. Dick, an eastern oil OPP
orator with headquarters at Akron.
Ohio, was here few hours yesterday
after a hurried visit to the oil fields
Of the White River country, accom-
panied by r. G. Horn OF this city.
The party left Rifle by auto Friday
morning. and after a hasty inspection
Of the White River and Meeker fields
and a couple OF unnamed structures
In the same district, returned to
Rifle last night.
MIR. Dick stated that he was great
ly surprised at the extent Of the un-
developed oil resources of this part
Of the state and that he expects soon
to become actively interested In OPP
erations somewhere in this section.
He expressed himself rs being partic-
uiarly pleased with the possibilities
q the White River field.
1.-The Beaver Oil company. of which
Mr.. Dick is the general manager,
was producing oil from about 22O
wells in western Ohio and southern
Kentucky. and WAS just beginning to
develop its holdings in Pennsylvania
when the country went on II war ba-
sis. Mr.. Dick entered the officers
training at Camp Harrison and after
receiving his commission has served
In the field artillery until his dis
charge last month.
"The Beaver Oil company in the
meantime has disposed OF much OF Its
holdings In the eastern states and Mr..
Dick is now looking up new proper
| ties in the western oil fields. IL IL
quite probable that he will soon make
his headquarters nt or near Grand
Junction and that he or his company
will take An active part in the devei-
opment OF the White River and other
western Colorado oil fields.
"Mr. Dick IL the son of former I'm
tied States Senator Charles Dick of
Ohio, who. for many years has been
| the owener of extensive mining in-
terests in this state. Senator Dick
while in congress WAS chairman OF
the COMMITTEES OH mines. and mining
and WAS author Of the law creating
the federal bureau Of mines"

Not infrequently one observes that
tn. one who is preparing food tastes
and stirs with the same spoon. Nor
IL that practice limited to the very
careless few" Prof. Inga M. X.
Allison, Of the Colorado Agricultur-
al College, has the following to say
regarding this practice:
AT all times this Is TO bs regarded
a. y treAcherous habit. But now. es-
pscially. when every safeguard must
be employed to prevent the spread OF
any epidemic, everyone should sb-
solutely refrain from such = habit

Keeping Up The White House

President Wilson has been extrem-
ely conservative In allowing sxpend-
lures for the White House sincs he
has occupied II, and not dollar has
been expended, particularly since the
declaration Of war, that could pos
sibiy he avoided. Last year, however,
the walls In the STATE parlors were re-
papered, but the same design OF wall
paper wAa kept In all Of the rooms.
The handsome patriotic design Of the
blue field and stars. which was re-
stored In 1908, and which has been 80
popular, still graces the wslls OF the
blue chambers. Tho rugs were re-
placed by new ones, while dainty nav
curtains Of lace were hung under the
heavy draperies. All the furniture
has been reupholstered In tho same
pattern. These small renovations
have given to the first floor at tho
White House very attractive sp-
/ peArance.
