HOSPITAL NURSE
PRAISES TANLAC
Gains Eleven Pounds And Is
Feeling Fine Since Taking
Tanlac.

"Tanlac did so much for me
that I feel it my duty to tell
others about this medicine" said
c. M. Rhamey, a professional
nurse living at the Hotel George,
on Sixth street, San Francisco,
CAL, recently. Mr.. Rhamey has
been nursing patients in the hos
pitfalls for the past eight years.
LAST February" he contin-
ued, owing to an accident in
which my leg was broken I was
confined to my bed for several
weeks. l lost my appetite and
could hardly eat anything to
nourish me, consequently l lost
weight. I took several different
kinds of tonics, hoping they
would help build me up but they
did me no good.
| Zone morning I read a state
ment by a lady in Los Angeles
who said she had gotten such
wonderful benefits from taking
Tanlac that l decided to try it
myself. By the time l had fin
ished half Of my first bottle my
appetite returned and felt hun
CRY for the first time in weeks.
From then on I started right in
to pick up and my appetite got
better and better and l slept bet
ter at night. I have already
gained eleven pounds and am
feeling just fine; even my doc
tor has remarked how much
better | am looking. I would
never allow my name to be used
in connection with medicine
before, but I have had such ex-
cellent results from using Tan
lac that I take great pleasure in
recommending it to anyone
needing medicine to build up
the system"
Tanlac is sold in Rockingham
by L. G. Fox and S. Biggs, and
by all good druggists every
where.

Bad roads and Chatham coun-

closely linked as rabbits and
Chatham. But a divorce is in
prospect for the former. Five
townships of Chatham have vot-
ed large bond issues for improv-
ed roads, and Gulf township is
right now beginning the work of
improvement. The road from
Collision to Carbonton will be
worked first, and when the new
road across that township is
completed, travellers from this
section will have a shorter and
better route to Pittsboro, Chapel

The State and County Council
which has been in session at the
University OF North Carolina, Sept
1918, was attended by more than
three hundred officials and theil
volunteer allies from rs counties
Described by Governor Beckett, who
presided, as destined to prove of in.
cStimable value to the State, the
Council, in response to widely
voiced demand, has been made a
permanent institution.
Problems OF public education, pub
lie health, taxation, highways and
public welfare laws and the new of.
ticials charged with carrying them
into effect, were threshed out during
Jour days of discussions. After every
speaking the meeting was thrown
open and questions were asked,
views exchanged, and experiences
described.
Governor Beckett, in addition to
presiding at most of the discussions,
explained the revaluation act and
made a plea for support for it. IAN
act to make the tax books of North
Carolina speak the truth" was the
title he gave to the law. North
Carolinians have never told the
truth about their taxes because they
have never been allowed to- the
Governor said, but they are telling
the truth now, and the moral effect
will be tremendous.
The system of procedure in the
new Juvenile courts was thoroughly
explained. The largest individual
group at the Council was the County
Superintendent of Public Welfare.
Hon. Frank Page, Chairman of the
State Highway Commission, told the
Council that IS trucks had already
been received from the Federal Gov
eminent for bodybuilding purposes,
and there would be available a.
total of Sl,500,000 worth of road
building machinery from the FEEDER
al Government.
With the exception of Wake coun-
ty, from which % State officials
alone attended, the Council, Per-
quimans led N attendance. All but
four of the land-locked mountain
counties had representatives pres
ent, and the Piedmont section of the
State was almost solidly represent
ed.
Richmond county was we'll repre-
scented in Mr.. w. N. Everett, Jr.,
member of the County Board of Ed
ucation, and Mr. 0. G. Reynolds,
County Supt. of Public Welfare.

Versailles, June 30.-The ceremony of signing the peace treaty, which other wise had been planned deliberately to be austere, beftting the sorrows and sufrerings of almost five years. and the lack of impressive and picturesque col or, of which many spectators who had expected magnificent state pageant, complained, was a matter of design not merely omission
 The actual ceremony was far short CT than had been expected, In view of the number of signatures which were to be appended to the treaty, and the two accompanying conventions, ending bare 49 minutes after the hour set for the opening. The proceedings were carried out without surface incidents, since the Germans were silent and the Chinese refused to sign was evident only by the vacant chairs. The sole words to be recorded in the protocol of the conference were NJ. Clemenceau's short opening allocution with its brief, stern warning to the Germans, and his equally terse phrases declaring the ceremony closed.
 The intervening three-quarters of an hour was marked by the scratching of big goose quills or modern steel pens.
