A DISCOVERY THAT
BENEFITS MANKIND

Two discoveries have added greatly
to human welfare.
In 1885 Newton originated the vac
uum process for condensing milk with
cane sugar to semi-Eqmd form.
In 1888 Horlick at Racine, Wis, dis
covered how to reduce milk to dry
ponder form with extract of matted
grains, zrithoHt cane sugar.
This product HoRLIck named
Matted Milk. (Name since copied
by others.) Its nutritive value,
dieestibility and ease of preparation
(by simply stirring in water) and the
fact that it keeps in any climate,
has proved of much value to mankind
as an ideal food-drink from infancy
to old age.

HUNDREDS
Mrs. Hampton For Ten Years
Sought Relief.
Is Successfully Only After She
Takes Tanlac.

ct Just want to tell YOU that since
have taken Tanlac I am feeling in
better health than I have in ten
years" said Mrs. George Hampton, of
11s North Bellaire ST., Kansas City,
Mo, recently.
Il suffered from stomach trouble
and nervous indigestion" continued
Mrs. Hampton, land was all run down
in health. Almost everything I ate
seemed to sour and lie in a heavy
lump in my stomach and I was also
bothered a great deal with gas on my
stomach. At times I was very dizzy
and suffered lot with headaches and
terrible pains in the back of my neck
and was so awfully nervous 1 could
hardly get my rest at night and would
often just lie awake for hours at a
time. Why, I even had nervous pros
tration at one time and was in such
bad condition hadn't been able to do
my homework for years and, although
for ten years 1 had been taking all
kinds of medicines, I never was able
to find anything that relieved me of
my trouble.
"a friend of mine told me about
Tanlac and how it had benefited her,
so I got a bottle to try it and 1 was
certainly pleased with the results 1
got almost from the very first, SO 1
kept on taking Tanlac until now I
actually feel like a different person
now without being afraid of having
trouble with my stomach afterwards
and 1 have already gained several
pounds in weight. My complexion is
good once more and my nerves are
perfectly normal again and can sleep
just like a child at night and get up
in the morning feeling rested and not
all tired and worn out like I used to.
I have spent hundreds of dollars for
medicine and treatments, but Tanlac
has done me more good than anything
else 1 ever took and my improvement
is so plain that even the neighbors
notice it, but it's no wonder they do,
because before 1 took Tanlac 1 could
hardly get about, but now 1 have lots
of energy and can do all my own
homework with ease. 1 have recon-
mended Tanlac to a number of my
friends and all of them are well
pleased with 1t, just as I am"
Tanlac is sold in Topeka by Tully-
Mcfarland Drug Co, S35 Kan. Ave,
and 729 Kan. Ave.-Adv.

Editor State Journal:
Executives, citizens, business men
and co-laborers of this city, state and
nation: VIII you kindly permit me
to reason with you little while as a
Christian gentleman on the following
points of the after effects of the
worlds war:
First ask the citizens of this gov
eminent to ask congress to enact a
law to regulate the prices of COM
modides and the price of wages, and
to wait patiently to a reasonable time
for reply without striking or COM
mitting violence to any person or
property. My fellow citizens that is
no small job and it will take some
time to do the work justly, so be
patient.
Second ask that the laws regu-
lating the rights of citizens who pat
ronize public businesses and places of
public amusement be published and
posted at conspicuous places for the
enlightenment and edification of the
people. And I further ask that if any
person or persons take or aim to take
or disturb in any way any citizens
rights at said places will be punished
by the law.
Third ask that the general order
81 and all of its supplements of the
railroad administration be enforced.

ENGINEERS DISCOVER 81
AN ANCIENT NIAGARA
(By United Press. !

.Thorold, Ont, Dec 4.-What' en-
gineers believe is an ancienthNfagara
Falls, which has been buried for
of, years, has been un-
covered here during the course i OF
excavations for the new Welland Ship
canal.
Et The "skeleton'' of this great pre-
historic cataract, according to en-
gineers in charge of construction, was
fully as wide and probably had "a
greater fall than the present Mag
ara Falls
:. The first indications of the former
cataract came to light when work
men uncovered series of Lodges in
the form of steps with total drop
of Is feel and a width of 400 feet.
The rock from this point sloped
sharply and at distance of about
100 feet from the end of the ledges
showed a depth of rs feet. Here was
discovered what is believed TO have
been the main precipice over which
the rushing water plunged hundreds
of feet TO its bed below.
The surface of the rock showed aun-
mistakable signs Of having been worn
smooth by the action of water rush
ing over it for countless years. E
There is nothing in history that
mentions this former cataract, but
experts believe it once formed the
chief link between Lake Erie and
Lake Ontario. Eight Mile Creek, a
small stream, now, flows over part of
the course Of the prehistoric water
way, and this in turn will soon be-
come the new ship canal.

VERMONT PLAN TO
FIGHT TUBERCULOSIS
Approved and Subsidized by the Ma
tional tuberculosis
Association.

The executive committee of the Ma
tional tuberculosis association voted to
approve plan submitted by the Yer
mont tuberculosis association entitled,
"A Plan for an Intensive Campaign
Against tuberculosis and also to APP
propriate 81 800 from the missionary
fund from the national association to aid
in developing the plan. The executive
committee of the National tuberculosis
association went over the plan with con-
siderable care. Criticisms were made
over some of the details, but the general
scheme appealed to them as an effort to-
wards solving problem of tuberculosis
in small cities and towns that was wor
thy of their support
The plans were written by H. w. Slo-
cum, secretary of the Vermont Tubercu-
losis association. They included the
opening of a public health dispensary
which will offer expert physical examina-
ton to all, but will be particularly inter-
ested i'll the examination of those who
have been exposed to tuberculosis. 1t
furnishes the services of an expert nurse
n homes where there is tuberculosis. 1t
also provides for an intensive educational
campaign along health lines to be carried
on in various homes for the people of a
limited district.
| One of the important features of the
| plan is to organize public welfare com
mittee and to give to the members of this
| committee a course on welfare work and
have them actually do this kind of work
with the help of experts. In this way, by
the time the association has finished Will
a limited district there will be left an or
ganization trained to care for every cast
of need in the most effective and economi
| cal way.
| If the plan works out successfully
ultimately the whole state of Vernon
viii be covered by intensive work in lin
| ted districts and in each district Their
will be organized trained welfara organ
ization. If this is brought about Vernon
will take a leading place in the countr,
n the solution of the welfare problem i
