WORLDS RECORD
BROKEN BY TANLAC
Over One Million Bottles Sold the
Ten Weeks of This Year.

Tanlac has brought a new romance
to the commercial world. 1t is the
story of an acceptance and appreCia-
ton of merit never before attained by
proprietary medicine. Staid bust
ness men to whom the actual figures
of the production of Tanlac have been
presented have secuted them until
the proof was shown. The production
of Tanlac now stands at the rate
almost four million bottles per year
The exact figures are 3,992,S00. The
sale of a million bottles in the first
nine months which far exceeded any
record ever made by a proprietary
medicine, now seems insignificant.
OVER 1900 BOTTLES A DAY
Sales this year bid fair to smash
all previous records, as the sale for
the first ten weeks of this year amount
ed to over One Million bottles an
average of over one numbered thousand
bottles per week, which is at the rate
of more than seventeen thousand bot
ties per day. 1t seems almost in
credible, but these are actual figures
and such is the record established by
this wonderful medicine
Zone firm alone" said Mr.. G.. F..
Willis, the international distributor Of
Tanlac "has given orders for a total
of 10000 bottles within eighteen
months time The firm refer to i
the Spurlock- Neal Co., of Nashville
Tenn. Mr.. c. S. Martin, president of
this great firm, who is also president
of the Southern Drug Jobbers' associa-
ton, will verify this statement
"Tanlac is the result of many yea
of arduous study by Mr.. Cooper and
his principal chemist. In fact, the two
of them have carefully watched its
development from the beginning of the
experimental stage to its present state
of efficiency So remarkable have
been the results obtained from this
medicine that l doubt seriously if either
of these men realize the immensely of
their success. Like many other great
discoveries, it has required time to-
prove its far-reaching effects"

GAS. CO. PLEADS
 BANKRUPTCY + INCREASE DENIED
General Manager Says Only Raise in Rate Gan Save Concern From Going Out of Business-Chicago Ex- pert Takes Stand.

That the working capital which the Pacific Gas and Electric company fixed at Ss4.0O0 for gas operation is s34, 900 too high.
 That the present depreciation rate ot per cent was. more liberal when fixed than justified and that the ( per cent, which is being asked for, is too high.
 That the allowable rate of return. which the company requested be placed at 12 per cent minimum. was ar least 2 per cent too high.
 These were some of the statements made by W. J. Huddle, rate expert of Chicago, in his testimony before the corporation commission yesterday at inc hearing for the Pacific Gas and Electric company for an increase in its rates.
 The direct testimony of MT. Huddle and his cross examination was fol- lowed by an argument by IT. l.. Aller of the gas company, who in conclusion stated that unless the increase was granted he could see no other course for the company than 10 face bank ruptcy in the federal court or to ap- ply to the corporation commission fol permission to discontinue it's opera lions. He stated that the company owed $125,000 to the banks in additor to $125.OOO in current bills that coulC not be paid.
 It is understood that the matter vii rot be determined until at least tn, latter part of December. J. E. Nelson assistant city attorney, asked until De cember 20 in which to file brief, an' time will be given to the compan. should 1t care to answer.

touch with him concerning the case.
 Only the representatives of the com pany. the city and state were present at the hearing, although previous to the hearing the public appeared to be intensely interested in the matter. MT. Johnson, member of the commission, who sat in the hearing with Amos A Betts, chairman commented upon this at the conclusion of the case yester- day.
 T am sorry the public showed so lit tie interest in the matter. It was sur prising that the hearing attracted so little attention in view of the fact that the people will be affected by the commissions ruling-either in the matter of increase in bills. or if the application is denied and the company l takes the steps it threatens, in the dis continuance of gas in the city" The case, which was continued from Monday. was called with MT. Huddle on the stand. MT. Huddle qualified as an expert, having served as public utility commissioner of Wisconsin anc Huddle & Co. having served in many
 states as gas experts. He declared | that in his opinion the advance of iron
 4 to 6 per cent in depreciation reserve
 was not justified in view of the fac | that when the per cent was aloWed I
 was far too liberal.
 On the amount of gas sold up tC
 Sept. 30, 1920, he considered 20 pei cent a. liberal allowance on the output
 which would place the working capita at $60,000. The company declared tha for it's gas operations it required ; working capital of $94,000, MT. Ale asking of the witness if it were no necessary to have sufficient working capital for stores and supplies;
 taxes that had to be prepaid were no
 an element of cost to be considered if a $400,000 gas business did not hav
 to have a bank balance of approxi
 mately $35,00O; if gas construction di not have to be a consideration; If fue stock did not have to be included as al } item; and pay roll was put forth as an other element of cost
 Mir. Huddle stated that all were ele ments of consideration but not neces sarily included under the working cap z ital He said it did not make any diff ference to the consumer of gas wher ] they were included.
 Tn taking up the matter of allowabl return MT. Huddle was opposed to tn Q minimum rate of 12 per cent, which h l, declared too high. The present rate from 8 to 10 per cent He testif1e l that an allowable rate of return shoul y not be so high that 1t would retard tn
 sale of the product and stated tht : other competing fuels would be used n place of gas, mainly kerosene.
