Well Day In twenty Five Years

Its the honest truth, l hadn't seen

a young girl again said Mrs. Virginia
Stapp of 1856 Valencia ST. San Fran
cisco California
For the past twenty-five years I
have been in such miserable health,
continued Mrs. Stapp, that I was be-
ginning to think L would have to be
content and bear my troubles as long
as 1 lived. 1 had almost no appetite
at all and when 1 managed to eat few
bites I couldn't digest it and it would
make me deathly sick and as l could
get no strength or nourishment 1 fell
off twenty-five pounds in weight. I
got so faint and dizzy at times would
have to sit down and wait till the at
twenty years I hardly knew what 1.
was to be without a headache and 1
had terrible pains across my kidneys.
All my life l have been constipated
and every day for years have had to
take a laxative, and my tongue was
always coated and I had pad taste
in weymouth all the time. Night af
ter night I have lain in bed rolling
and tossing for hours unable to get
a wink of sleep and of mornings
felt so bad 1 could hardly get up.
"The statements in the papers about
Tanlac seemed so sincere that I made
up my mind to give it trial but as
every thing else had taken for tw
enty-five years had failed to help me
1 had little faith in Tanlac. But, sir,
it began to help me so quick that it
was no time before I had changed my
the greatest medicine I have ever
heard of in my life can hardly realize
what a wonderful change has come ov-
er me. Why 1 am able to eat just
anything l please, with no bad effects
in the least, and I have actually gain
ed thirty pounds in weight. I haven't
had headache or dizzy spell in so
long that l have almost forgotten
about them and the pains in my back
have left me entirely. My constip-
ated condition has been relieved and
my tongue is never coated and l don't
have that bad taste in my mouth any
more. 1 sleep nine to ten hours ev-
cry night can do my homework with
ease and l just feel fine all the time
with this new life and energy about
me. I never lose single opportun-
ity to praise Tanlac, for it has GER
tainly been the greatest blessing of
my life"

PRESIDENT TO PROVIDE
FOR 20 EUROPEAN W4IF,S

President Wilson today called upon
his fellow countrymen' to contrib
ute funds to save three and one-half
million children who ''are facing
starvation in central Europe" The
President announced that he would
adopt twenty Of these children as his
temporary wards, an9 said that $40
contributed through the European
relief council would save the life of a
child
This appeal follows the request
made last week by Arthur C. Moses,
chairman of the local committee of
this relief movement. who called at
the White House executive Offices to
solicit the Presidents aid.
'Three and a half million children
are facing starvation in central Eu-
rome" said the Presidents statement
'Tt is estimated that they can be
tided over until the next harvest by
money and service equivalent to $50
per child. The countries involved can
furnish two-thirds Of this cost in the
personnel and machinery for distri-
button, but for the other one-third
they must look abroad, and they are
looking to us.
Since 1914 our people have given
with unparalleled generosity, and
they should not be lightly called upon
for additional charities. But there Is

Ten dollars contributed through

HALF DAYS LIKELY
FOR U. s. EMPLOYEES
Extra Time Before Christmas
and New Year Is Urged
by Secretary Payne.

Probability Of half holiday for gov
eminent employees on the days before
Christmas and New Year appeared
favorable today.
1t was learned that Secretary Payne
of the Interior Department has Off
cially taken up the cudgel in behalf
OF the employees of the government
departments in Washington and will
urge upon the cabinet, at its meet
ing tomorrow, the advisa bility of re-
leasing government employees at noon
on December "a and on December n
Secretary Payne. it is understood,
claims that government employees
should be allowed an extra half dav
to do whatever shopping they have to
do just prior to Christmas and New
Year.
Plans Changed nt Thanksgiving.
The stand understood to have been
taken by Mr.. Payne follows cancel
lation of te usual halliday on the
day preceding Thanksgiving day. In
an executive order from the White
House a halfholiday for all employees
of the government departments and
of the District government was can
c%led the morning Of November "a
after practically all the heads of de-
partments had authorized such a half
holiday. Cancellation of the half
holiday disrupted ed plans of hundreds of
federal employees and marked new
departure in carrying on the work of
the departments.
1t was understood that Secretary
Houston of the Treasury Depart
ment and Postmaster General Burie-
son claimed stress of work prevented
allowing the employees of their re-
spective departments the halliday.
and on that account the order can
ceiling the halliday was made to in
clude all the other departments
Although Christmas and New Year
have never been designated as hoIi-
days each Secretary informally ex-
cuses the employees of his department
on those days.
Definite Ruling Sought
Now it appears that the half day y
preceding the regular holidays is to
he brought up for final settlement.
Yy order of the President, dated De-
cember 90. 1919, per diem employees
of the District government and of
the United States are allowed a half
holiday on the days preceding Christ
mas and New Year. but no such order
has ever been issued for the regular
employees of the departments.
II is understood Secretary Payne
will endeavor to have an order issued
anplying the same rule to all other
amDlOVeS.

IrreconciIabIes Disturbed by
His Attitude-Mention of
Hoover Annoys Them.
by DAVID LAWRENCE.

Two things are disturbing the MEM
bers Of the so-called group Of cir
reconcila bles' who oppose the en-
trance of the United States into any
association or league of nations what
ever
One is that President elect Hard
ing is veering toward the present
league of nations and has about made
up his mind that the machinery of
the league must be used. even though
amendments and reservations freeing
America from obligations or entansle-
ments shall be the basis of Ameri-
can cooperation with the other ma
tions,
The other. thing is that Mr.. Harding
IS showing a marked friendliness to
Herbert Hoover and has limited that
he wants him in the cabinet
When President -e1ect Harding was
in Washington, it was learned today.
he amazed certain members of the
references to Mr.. Hoover. He got
some frank expressions of criticism
in return.
1t will not be forgotten that Sen
ator Hiram Johnson. leader of the
irreconcilables, fought Mr.. Hoover in
the California primaries and that the
sores of that fight have not alto
gether healed. So when Mr. Harding
comes along and says nice things
about Mr.. Hoover and hints that the

SEEKS TO SPEED
DISTRICT TAX BILL
Mapes Will Ask Conference
Tomorrow on Measure
Now Pending.

Chairman Mapes of the House Dis
trict committee said today that he
will endeavor to arrange conference
tomorrow between the Senate ana
House conferees on his bill propos-
ing to change the fiscal relations be%
tween the federal government and
the District government.
For many years efforts to abolish the
half-and-half principle of financing the
National Capital have been made
through amendments on appropriation
bills. This has been fought as new
Legislation and subject to a point OF
order. At the last session of Congress
Mr. Mapes undertook to change the
fiscal relations by legislation through
the District committees. This pro-
posal was to expend on capital up
keep all the money which Congress
decided to collect in taxes from Dis
trict residents. and if it wished to ap-
propriate more FOR this purpose to
supply it from the federal Treasury.
seAate Resteres $3.50.
This proposition was opposed on the
ground that it destroyed the princi-
pie of definite proportionate contri-
button by nation and capital COM
munity Tor capital upbuilding and
substituted system that was uncer-
tain. f1uctuating and capricious.
The Senate amended the Mapes bill

prevent both surpluses and deficits.

TO meet the requirements of capital

principle of definite contribution
by the United States.
The bill thus amended by the Sem
ate went into conference between the
two houses, from which it has not yet
been reported. Meanwhile the $3.50

on the same subject were put by Mr.,
Harding yesterday to Herbert Hoover,
