The dispute between Greece and
Italy over the lands along the east
coast Of the Adriatic seems TO be
taking better turn. After much OF
argument and considerable display
of temper there is now more of
disposition to come to terms and
Italy is said to be ready to arbi-
trate the matter and abide by the
result. This is surely a hopeful
beginning for a settlement of vex-
ing territorial questions and other
conflicting nations may be led to
take a similar course.

The Ameer of Afghanistan has
just been assassinated. Few people
know much about him or the sig
nificance of the act. Suffice it to
say that Afghanistan is the little
buffer state that protects India from
the Russian empire in Asia. The
late Ameer was friendly disposed
to the interests of England as was
his father before him and that is
about the extent of European and
American interest in the matter.

WATT TO DECLARE
STOCK DIVIDENDS
ny BRoADAN WALL

New York, Oct. 1a.--An uproarous
bull market was Wall streets re-
sponse today to the announcement
that union labor was surrendering
In the steel strike and that the pres
ttient was very much improved in
health.
Those were not the only reasons
for the advance In tho market, how
ever. The big underlying reason is
that very rich men will not sell on
account Of the income tax. Another
reason Of almost equal importance la
that there ia general expectation of
a decision from the supreme court
exempting stock dividends from in
come, tax payments
More than a score of the big corpo-
ratlons stand ready to declare such
dividends the moment they are off,
cially pronounced immune
Another reason for some OF the
buying was the expectation that the
supreme court would hand down a
decision In favor Of the Southern Pa
cifc Railroad in the oil case.
II will be seen. therefore. that this
is really market of great expecta-
tions. 1t is none the less a sub
stantiai market, for the best kind
of investment buying is in progress.

holiday next Monday. But in spite
of the profit-taking, the market
showed material net gains. for gross
advances were very large in many
cases.
Mexican Petroleum crossed $50.

high record. The stock IL now In

Tobacco stocks attracted respect
full attention all dav. The street is
beginning to realize vaguely that
something big is going on in tobacco.
The tobacco stocks. by virtue of what
Is now being done. will be lifted
from the speculative department OF
the market and put In a class of

We'll Known Salesman Praises Tanlac For Ending Four Years
 Trouble


 'T have been relieved of four years suffering, and have gained exactly fourteen pounds in weight since ! commenced taking Tanlac," said R. A. Whitcomb, a we'll known salesman for the Caldwell Grocery Co., who lives at 237O Franklin Ave, San Diego, Cal, the other day. ,
 My trouble started with an attack of acute indigestion" continued MT. Whitcomb, "and these spells have been coming pretty often for the past three years. In fact, when I began to take Tanlac, my stomach was in such bad condition that everything ate would cause me to suffer terribly afterwards. I would have the worst sort of cramping pains in the pit of my stomach, and when these spells hit me, I would be in so much actual misery that cold sweat would pop out all over my body. Sometimes gas would form so bad that it would rise up into my chest and cause my heart to halDitate.. and make me feel so weak that I would almost faint. These troubles kept getting worse all the time until I was so run down and worn out that was hardly able to work. B.
 cone day last fall I read about a man who had suffered exactly as I
