GETS RID OF HER
TROUBLES AT IS
"Tanlac is Certainly a Fine
Medicine For Elderly Peo-
ple," She Says.

Among the many Kentucky people
who have recently testified to the
powers of Tanlac is Mrs. Mamie
Chappell, residing at 3724 Old Third
street, Louisville, who in relating her
experience said:
IL am now seventy-hve years OF age,
but | doubt il there are many women
that old who feel any better than
do since taking Tanlac. Why, during
all the years of my life / have never
seen or heard of a medicine to equal
it. for a few bottles have relieved me
of a case of rheumatism, nervousness
and indigestion that had troubled me
for twenty-three years. Sometimes my
lower limbs hurt me so bad ! could
Mt walk and at times my arms panied
me so | couldn't raise my hands to
comb my hair. / had several attacks
every year and while they were on me
could neither get up or down without
help. Many time | got so nervous
| would shake like a leaf and just
dreaded to see night come, for IT was
impossible for me to sleep. My APP
petite left me, too, and everything l
ate disagreed with me.
Finally | got so bad off with this
rheumatism that | couldn't stay on
my feet any longer While | was
down in bed my son, who is pas
senger engineer on the Louisville and
/, Nashville railroad came to see me and
said, Mother you remember how l
suffered so long with stomach trouble

RADIO COMMUNICATION
 OPENED BETWEEN j NOME AND ANAovR

Commercial radio communications between Nome and Anadyr Is now an established fact, as a result of arrange menss made by the government. The Nome Chamber of Commerce received a wire, from Seattle during the early days of the past week notifying that body that commercial wireless com- mucation would be inaugurated be. tween Nome and Anadyr, service to begin July 1st. The rate announced is 2S cents per word, with a minimum of ten words per message. Addresses and signatures will be free of charge. There are no variations to this sched- ule and there will he no night letter rate.
 Owing to rapidly increa sing com mercial intercourse between Nome and Siberia, the inauguration of commer- cial wireless communications between Nome and Anadyr coasts will un- doubtedly be of great advantage to the business interests and residents of both sections and result in a wiGe increase in commercial intercourse.

FLYING FIELD
 NEARING COMPLETION

The aeroplane landing near Ft.
 Davis is rapidly nearing completion
 under the direction of w. J. Rowe, who undertook the contract of pro- viding landing for the airplanes pa-- ticipat ting in the scheduled flight from Minneola, New York. to Nome via Canada.
 Owing Ot the boggy character of the
 ground. the attempt to prepare field
 on Gold Hill. the site originally SC.
 lected. was abandoned some days ago. The ground was found to be of such character that a proper landing could
 be constructed only at great expense A site was then selected on the broad
 sandy flat lying between Ft. Davis and Nome River bridge and appears to be well suited for the purpose. The work of preparation consists of grading and laying heavy coating of manure over
 the sandy soil. This Is then rolled
 Into the sand and forms a hard, com- pact surface. LeRoy Wells. whose experience as an airplane mechanician during the war qualities him to pas judgement, says the field will meet the requirements. Mir. Rowe expects to
 have the works completed in a few
 days. The great flight is scheduled to
 start from Minneola on July 10th. with
 live army aviaths participating.
