MY nephew, James Hogan, who is
fifteen years of age, has gained SIX
teen pounds on Tanlac and is now a
robust, happy boy after thirteen
years of awful suffering" said Miss
| Maggie Goldsmith, 2SO Henry Ave,
Memphis, Tenn. Miss Goldsmith has
been connected with the Joe L. Ula-

ty-seven years and is a stakeholder
and director in the company.
Ever since James was two years

has been afflicted with stomach trou-
bic. Two or three hours after eating.
especially the evening meal he would
begin to complain of severe pains in
his stomach which would increase UNI
til he would so into commissions. These
spells would come on five or six times
a month and last about thirty min
utes and he would be unconscious for
an hour. Some said he had heart
trouble and others said it was vertigo
His condition kept him down to al
most skeleton and it was pitiful to
see how he suffered
His mother took him to st. Louis,
and many other places for treatment,
and We spent thousands of dollars
| trying to find some relief for him but
it was all to no avail
But all that awful load of anxiety
has been lifted. James is now well
and happy boy and is going to school
and few bottles of Tanlac did 1t. He
always complained of having to take
other medicines, but he seemed to
like Tanlac and since taking five
bottles he is sixteen pounds heavier
and doesn't look like the same boy
He wants to eat all the time and can
eat anything without it hurting him
1t makes us rejoice to see James we'll
and stout and enjoying life like other
boys. We are not looking for notorie-
ty, but for the sake Of suffering hui
manity, We are willing to give our UNI
qualified endorsement for Tanlac.'

Editorial Comment
on Current Subjects
APPLIED CONSERVATION.
.om die Morgantown Post.

From the Morgantown Post.
Speaking before the Natural Gas As
ISOLATION of West Virginia at its re-
cent session in Wheeling, DR.. l. c..
White, State Geologist, and for many
years one of the leading authorities
OF the world on mineral deposits, es-
pecially coal, oil and gas, declared that
three-fourths of the natural gas sup
ply OF the Appalachians has been ex-
hausted and urged the adoption of
methods for the conservation OF what
remains OF this precious fuel. His ad-
dress on the general subject of con-
Bervation is in the language of ripe
scholarship and calm philosophy, per-
yaded by the essence of long and care
full observation and experience, ano
charming in its beauty of diction and
wealth of imagery. One can not read
II without condemning the prodlgal
wastefulness of past years, and mar
Yelling that men should have been so
unjust to those who were to come aft
er them, SO thoughtless of the die
tum that the earth is the Lords and
the fullness thereof, and that man in
his day and generation is merely the
custodian of whatever of material mat
ter is given into his control. But these
contemplate in the abstract are
rudeiy shocked when the remedy for
the evils complained or is presented
in q practical way. To conserve the
supply of natural gas, DIR. White sug-
gests two outstanding methods--re-
striction of its use to domestic pur-
poses, and increase in price from 25
cents to 80 or even rs cents q thou
sand cubic feet, with the adoption OF
the newest improved methods of get
ting the greatest amount of heat out
of the smallest amount of fuel-the
elimination of all wasteful gas burn
ing devices.
Practically every manufacturing
plant In the city of Morgantown, ex-
cept the Sabraton tin mill, and the
Economy Tumbler factory, which has
installed gas producer would be
compelled to close its doors and stop
Its wheels ii these remedies were ap-
piled. Morgantown's plants are built
for the use of natural gas, and any at
tempt to change them to other fuel
would entail an expenditure at pres
ent prohibitive. Neither can they be
operated with the use of gas If the
price of that fuel be advanced to the
figures suggested by DR.. White. Close
the factories, and increase the price
of gas to so or rs cents and "the do
nestle consumer" will at once be re-
duced 10 an inconsiderable fraction OF
It's present proportions. Thousands OF
Morgantown homes are built only for
the use of natural gas as fuel, and

or to pay the prices suggested. Cut
on the gas supply of the factories, and
many Of them will move to other loca-
tons, with better railroad facilities,
nearer markets, and more easily &C
cessible raw material, finding that the
transportation of coal for fuel would
be more than Offset by other advan-
tages. DR.. Whites proposed system OF
conservation is based on broad vision
and wise foresight, but its direct ap-
plication at this time can not be view
ed with equanimity by West Virginia
manufacturers who have all their CAPT
tai invested in plants dependent upon
natural gas for fuel, or by the humble
citizen in whose scheme of house
hold economy there is no place for To-
cent gas. On the other hand, 1t mus.
bring great solace to the gas compan-
les which have pending before the
Public Service Commission applica-
lions for increases in rates, and to the
big gas producing companies which
are trying to set at naught West Vir-
ginia's laws for the protection OF West
Virginia consumers. The address, we
have no doubt, will be filed as a part
of their evidence In the case.
Everybody realizes that West vir-
ginians must prepare for the time when
there will be natural gas neither for the
home nor the factory, but West Vir-
ginians can not be expected 10 adopt
these altruistic measures of conserya-
ton while Pittsburgh, Cleveland. and
other Pennsylvania and Ohio cities are
burning West Virginia gas in home
aud factory. In the bill of complaint
filed by the commonwealth of Penn
sylvania against the state of West Vir-
ginla before the Supreme Court of the
United States, seeking to enjoin the
enforcement OF the provisions of the
Steptoe bill, the compliments set
forth under oath that factories sup
piled by natural gas in Pennsylvania
and the same is true in the Ohio case
can not be changed or remodeled
for the use of other fuel. Are these
manufacturers, who pay not one cent
in taxes to West Virginia, to be favor
ed with supply OF gas. while West
Virginia. in paroxysm of remors..
shuts off the supply OF her own fac
tories, and impresses the humble
householder with the precious charac-
ter OF natural gas by boosting its
price?
The entire situation involves a men
ace to the prosperity of West Virginia
which few have as yet realized. Pro
pogandists in the employ of the great
gas corporations, are filling columns
of newspaper space with the doctrine
that there Is a sudden and tremendous

public officials. The great corpora
tons own what is left OF the gas pro-
ducing fields, and may well undertake
the conservation Of what remains, lin
iting its sale at great prices TO its IA
yored interests, but they can hardly
expect the general public to Join with
