6ut Mrs. Smithers Meant Well, and
No Doubt Her Good Intentions
Are Of Record.

On one side of the hall in the new
apartment building lived Mr.. and Mrs.
SmitherS; on the other side of the hall
lived two girls who taught in the pub
lie schools and who were having their
first experience in "baching it," Mrs.
Smithers didn't know them very well,
but she took a motherly interest In
them to the extent Of hoping that they
had enough to eat and that their neces-
sarily hasty and amateurish spread
would not give them Indigestion.
The other day, out of kindness of
heart, she took them a batch of fresh
biscuits she had just baked. And while
she was there, she showed them how
to use the stove, gave them some hints
ON marketing, wrote down a lot of rec
ipes for simple viands, and gave them
q lecture on food values and the prep
aration of leftovers.
They were very grateful to the dear
lady, and they told us all about it. And
they made us promise solemnly that
we would never tell her that they were
teachers of domestic science.-Cleve-
land Plain Dealer.

QUEER MYTH ABOUT WILSON
Belief in Austria That President of the
United States Is Really Crown
Prince Rudolph.

According to the Vienna Journal, a
serious newspaper, the rural popula,
ton of large districts of the provinces
of Lower Austria and Syria be-
lieved in the death of Crown Prince
Rudolph of Austria. who was assas-
sinated in the castle Of Meyerling. near
Baden, together With Countess Vecs-
cera in 1889.
The people refused to accept this of
fetal statement, and their suspicion
was nourished at the time by the fact
that the coffin of the crown prince at
the funeral was extremely small, while
the crown prince himself was a power
ful man.
The story went that the crown
prince had really not been murdered
at all, but that he had fled across the
bis pond.
Ever since the war there is a grow
ing belief among the rural population
that the crown prince, who, as will
be remembered, was addicted TO scien-
tiic researches, is identical with Prof.
Woodrow Wilson, president of the
United States of America.
The remarkable thing is that there
is an evident optimism as the future
Of Austria connected with the legend.
for the people say it Is plain that Will
son being Crown Prince Rudolph, will
not let his beloved Austria perish.

There is also a partial censorship Of

Tanlac was designed primarily
for the correction Of disorders of
the stomach, liver, and bowels. AT
the same time. however, it is a
powerful reconstructive tonic and
body builder. for it naturally fol-
lows that any medicine that brings
about proper assimilation of the
food and the thorough elimination
the waste products must therefore
have a far-reaching and most bene
fetal effect upon the entire system.
Although Tanlac's claims for SUI.
premacy are abundantly supported
by the worlds leading authorities,
it is the people themselves who
have really made Tanlac what it is.
Millions upon millions have used it
and have told other millions what
it has done for them. That is why
Tanlac has become the real sensa.

KNEW NOTHING ABOUT TOYS
Little Ones Of Palestine Grew Up
Without Seeing q Doll Until
Armenians Brought Some.

Ever since the outbreak of the wary
the children of Palestine have been
without toys, and q whole generation
is growing up that has not even
"mothered" a doll. The miseries that
have all but overwhelmed the city of
Jerusalem have robbed ever the boys
Of any inclination to play, except now
and then a pathetic imitation Of foot
ball as INDUCED in by the British
"Tommies" Of General Allenby's lib
Grating army. So writes Miss Libby
Oppenheim, q New York girl, who is
the secretary of the American Zionist
medical unit which is now operating
In Palestine.
Miss Oppenheim was charged with
the task Of distributing a contribu-
ton Of toys which accompanied n
Of the clothes shipments sent recently
to the Holy land by the Palestine sup
plies department of the Zionist or
ganization Of America. The toys were
distributed to the kindergartens, the
schools, the O%rphanages and to the two
children's hospitals In Jerusalem and
Jaffa.
Miss Oppenheim personally took
some of the toys to the girls orphan
age, and she describes the scene that
transpired. 1--WE first explained the
toys to Mrs. S. the head Of the or
phanage and to her assistant. Mrs.
s. then assembled the children in
one room dnd told them to cover their
eyes, as she had a surprise for them.
"Then she and her assistant brought
IL a few toys at a time and placed
them on a table. The chlldren's pa

were brought in, but when, through
the corners of their eyes, they saw a

Public Now Told All About
/. TanlaC
Aulhorltles Now Show Just What
This Medicine Really IS.

Ia . recent issue Of this paper
announcement was made that Tan
he now has the largest sale Of any
medicine of its kind in the world,
and that more than twelve million
bottles had been sold during the
past four years.
These are unusual figures, and
the question naturally arises in the
mind Of the reader why this phe-
nomenal success and why has this
preparation so far out-stripped all
other medicines of its kind. 1t is
only natural therefore that the
manufacturers should offer some
explanation to satisfy public in
terest.
In the first place. Tanlac is manu-
featured in M of the largest and
most modernly equipped labora-
tories in this country. Its formula
is purely ethical and complies with
al national and state pure food and
drug laws. Altogether there are
ten ingredients in Tanlac, each Of
which is Of recognized therapeutic
value.
Many Of these ingredients have
been individually known and used
since civilization first began, and
some Of them have been used and
prescribed by leading physicians
everywhere. but until they were
brought together in proper proper
ton and association as in the Tan
Inc formula, humanity had not
heretofore realized their full value
nd effect.
In referring to one Of the more
important ingredients of Tanlac,
the Encyclopedia Britannica says:
1T has long been the source of the
most valuable tonic medicines that
have ever been discovered" In
referring to others of the general
tonic drugs contained in Tanlac the

tics, q standard medical text book.
states that-.they impart general
tone and strength to the entire

ents Of Tanlac which is Of value in
treating what is commonly known
as "a run-dou n condition Uses the
following expression:

There are certain other elements
in Tanlac which because Of their
influence upon the appetite, diges-
ton, assimilation and elimination
improve the nutrition and vital &C
tivity Of all the tissues and organs
of the body, and produce that state
Of general tonicity which is called
