Country Runs Up Big Bill for Luxuries

IT COST the women In the United
] States approximately $750000000
last year to rouge their cheeks, dab
their noses with powder and make
themselves fragrant with perfume, ac-
cording to compilation Of the lux
ury tax returns which have been made
by Uncle Sam.
The cost Of cosmetics and perfume
was more than twice that Of women's
furs-in year when the fur prices
were the highest in history. The
amount spent on furs was approx.
mately $500, 900. 900.
The year 1919 was luxurious, ac-
ccrding to the tax figures, which show
that the amount spent on luxuries was
81, 700 100000. The ladies did their
part In spending money on luxuries,
but the expenditures were not confined
to them. Eight hundred million dol
lars went up In smoke-clgarette
smoke, while $4,000 900 we're burned
up In the form Of cigars.
Jewelry cost 100000, ,O0O-an i'm.
pressive sum, but only two per cent
Of luxurious expenditures. Pianos, or
gans and monographs entertained the
people to the tune of S250,OO0,OOO,
while automobiles cost $4,000, 100000.

days ago similar demonstration was
held in the state of Nyarit. for
merly known as the state Of Teplc.
Additional evidence that very little
Is being done to check the spread Of
Bolshevist doctrines south Of the Rio

Mexican government has failed to
keep its word, given a few weeks ago,
to deport from the country the vari.
GUS alien agitators. who. 1t Is admit
ted. are the leaders and the brains Of
the Mexican radical movement.

"The First internationale was held

W. F. MERRILL HAS
GAINED s. POUNDS
Suffered Fifteen Years and Had
TO Quit Work But Is Back
on Job Feeling Fine

II have not only gained thirty-five
pounds since l commenced taking
Tanlac but l feel so fine have gone
back to my work." was the statement
made the other day by W. F. Merrill,
of 1921 N street, West, Cedar Rap
ids, Iowa.
ut was about fifteen years ago
that my health began to give way"
continued Mr.. Merrill, land since that
time my condition has been growing
worse and worse until I was almost
a wreck. l had such bad case of
indigestion that I could hardly eat
thing without having cramping
pains in my stomach afterwards, and
gas would form and press up around
my heart and cause it to palpitate
something awful. Twas very nerv-
Gus and as sure as ate any supper
+ would roll and tumble all night
long, unable to get any sleep or rest.
I was growing weaker and losing
weight right along, and I gave up
my indoor work to try outdoor work
but it did no good and my condition
continued to get worse.
"A friend Of mine who had taken
Tanlac came to me and told me about
it and advised me to give it trial.
l have seen a good many surprising
things in this world but the way Tan
lac restored me to complete health
is about as pleasant a surprise as l
ever had. Indigestion is thing of
the past with me and I eat anything
I please and as much as I please with
no bad effects at all. My nerves
were never in better condition and I
can go to bed and sleep sound every
night that comes. My lost weight
and strength have come back to me
and I can, do my indoor work with
ease and l am in better health than
I've been in years. If I am ever
troubled again in my life the first
thing I do will be to send for
bottle of Tanlac."
