''My Only Regret Is That l

ular New York Officer.

my experience with Tan1ac has
been remarkable and I feel that I
would be lodging my duty not to come
out and tell my friends about it." was
the statement made by W. E. Ayers,
Chief of Police of Montour Falls. N.
Y, in an interview q few days ago.
Mr.. Ayers has been Chief of Police
of Montour Falls continuously for
thirty-four years, and altho now sew
enty-five ears of age, he performs the
duties of his office with the same
alertness md vigor that has been
characteristic of him ever since he
received his first appointment.
Mr.. Ayers is not only widely known
as an officer. but is also prominent
as a man and citizen. In 1853, at
the age of eighteen. he volunteered
for service in the Civil war, engaged
in many of the fiercest battles, and
after the struggle ended he returned
to his people and his home town,
Montour, unscathed.
For 2 good many years" said Mr..
Ayers, II have been subject to fire.

indigestion and have tried about
everything known in the way of medi-
cines. but always with the same dis

When these attacks came on me

my stomach that I would just double

my stomach were the one thing
dreaded above all else because they
meant the worst of misery and torture
to me.
About a l4onth ago I began to
pressed with what others said the
medicine had done for them that I
concluded to try it myself. Well, in
my case it has come up to every good
word I read about 1t 1 had hardly
finished my first bottle when I could
tell it was doing the work
1T is by far the best medicine I
have ever come across. Why, I can
now eat what 1 want without fear of
indigestion, for Tanlac has put my
stomach in fine condition. Tanlac has
built up my whole system, adding to
my weight and giving me strength
never thought possible for "a man of
my age to have. It has proved to be
such a wonderful thing in my case
that 1 am telling all my friends about
it.
Il am back at my desk every day
with energy and strength to tackle
any task that may come up. They
say a man is only as old as he feels
and if that is true I am just about
forty-five and 1 can't find words to
fully express just how wonderful I
think Tanlac is. My only regret is
that I did not meet up with it years
ago, as it would have saved me SO
much suffering and unhappiness.
IF the rest of the people who are
in poor health don't try Tanlac they'll
certainly be the losers. I believe it
will help anybody who gives it a fair
trial"

Great Britain Will never consent to
separation of Ireland from the en-
pire, but is willing to give 1t the larg-
est possible measure Of self-govern-
ment and to give this at once. Such
was the statement Of premier Lloyd
George to parliament. and he then
proceeded to give an outline of the
home rule bill which the government
will introduce when parliament reas-
sembles. The measure will create two
legislatures somewhat on the Amer
lean model, one for the southern part
OF ireland and the Roman Catholic
part of Ulster. and the other for
Protestant Ulster. Above them viii be
the council of ireland, elected by the
two legislatures. The latter bodies
have the power to combine at any
time without the consent OF the Brit
ish parliament All powers not re-
served to the imperial British parila-
ment are given to the legislatures.
These reserved powers include peace
and war, foreign affairs. the army and
navy, defense. treason, trade outside
OF Ireland, navigation, wireless and
cable. coinage. trade marks. light
houses, and the appointment of the
higher Judiciary until the legislatures
agree on a plan for the appointment
of judges. Also reserved are the In

, Admiral Sims, who commanded
Americas naval lighting forces in the
war. started what may develop into
a real navy scandal when he declined
TO accept the Distinguished Service
medal awarded him by Secretary OF
the Navy Daniels. The admiral In
his letter to the secretary, accused the
latter of injustice and discrimination
in making up the list of those to re-
ceive medals and navy crosses, and
expressed his indignation at the giving
of the medal to swivel chair officers
and to officers who lost their vessels
at sea under circumstances that might
not be to their credit, while 1t was
refused to others who displayed great
bravery and gallantry in combat
Many of the latter, recommended for
the decoration by Admiral Sims and
approved by the board of awards,
were cut from the list by Mr.. Daniels.
The admiral said such injustice would
go far toward destroying the morale
of the navy and he did not wish to
countenance it by accepting the medal
awarded to him.
Secretary Daniels said there was no
basis for the charge of favoritism,
that he was determined to decorate
every commander of torpedoed ship

is in that category-and that the list
is not yet closed. It was said In

was very likely to bring about con-
