Father, Mother and Daugh-
ter Recover Health by
Taking Tanlac

MY wife, my daughter and myself
have all derived so much benefit from
Tanlac that we cannot speak too highly
of it, and take this opportunity of
strongly recommending it TO others" said
c. ID. McIvor of llS State street, Rutland
Vt.
Mine was a case of stomach trouble
Of 10 years standing and / was in such
n run down, weakened condition that |
was tired all the time and the least bit OF
heavy work completely exhausted me.

kind. Often for hours after a meal
sour taste would come up into my mouth
and the gas that formed on my stomach
caused me great distress. | had the most
fearful sick headaches and was also
troubled with. rheumatism so badly in
the right leg and hip that | couldn't
sleep at night on account of the pain.
when we saw by the papers that
Tanac was helping so many people |
bought bottle. just to give it a trial, and
its wonderful effect surprised us all. 1t
settled my stomach so that | wasn't
bothered with indigestion any more and
the rheumatism left me so that | can
sleep just as well lying on the right side
as on the left. feel stronger and better
in every way and can get through my
work with far less fatigue.
Then my wife, who was in very ner
vous condition and unable to sleep at
night thought she would try it too, and
the results in her case were equally salts.
factory. She hadn't any appetite before
but now she is hungry all the time, her
nerves arc quite normal again and she
sleeps well. Our daughter Mabelle also
was in very n-down condition, and
like her mother, was nervous, unable to
sleep well at nights and had no appetite
Since taking Tanac she says she feels
ever so much better and cant get enough
to eat. Only the other day my wife
jokingly said that if we continued tc
eat so heartily she would require an in
creased allowance for housekeeping
Tanlac has done us all so much gooC
that we think there is nothing like i
and cannot recommend it too highly.

COAL.

Today everyone Is thinking of coal. Probably the thought came first when chill air greeted men as they awoke Then the thought. with its ramifica- tions, progressed.
 So the news this morning that Att torney General Palmer has ordered an investigation of the situation. and the trial and conviction of bituminous operators who have used the car shortage and export demand to raise prices and take unwarranted profits, Is especially good news.
 It happens rather fortunately that there Is a Presidential campaign on. Mir. Palmer is mentioned as a possible or probable candidate. He will he inclined to push the investigation rapidly. It Is safe to say that if his operators. If there be any guilty of charging s7 to s11 a ton for coal at the mines when production is said to ccst but s2.7e. with resultant fall LII tHN pFiCes his stOCk as d preslden- ttal candidate will mount high.
 Governors of New England States In conference with members of the Interstate Commerce Commission and Shipping board declared yesterday that industries were on the verge of closing down: that there seemed Iit- tic chance of laying in the winters supply of coal. They ask that coal may be shipped by boat from Nor folk.
 As pfe'ting tho small consumer this action cannot fail to brinS good results. All that said small con. sumner can do at present is to have the kindlies of feeling for the harassed local dealer: tell him gently about how much coal he will need. and when. and await the ability of the local dealer to supply him. sure that the local dealer will get his coal just as soon us he is able. and at as req sonable Il price as possible.

familiar wieh in his youth. Probably every school boy did learn of them. How many remember? How many youths would be willing to devote an evening to review of such matters? !? How many need it?
 Stress has been laid on the eager ness of many foreign born men and women to learn of the traditions of this country. Much has been said, of tho commendable spirit shown by many from other lands to seize chances to better themselves by edu- cation and to it themselves for bet ter citizenship.
 Much has been said; but not enough. And there has been d fail- ure to appreciate the significance of the reports. often poorly made but in- spired by a desire 10 give credit to these people for the interest they take in the land which they have adopted.
 The one characteristic of the for eign-born-this desire to improve themselves for their own sakes and in order that they may take a proper place among the citizens of this coun- try-should bring them a far greater respect than Is accorded them.
 Men who pride themselves on their ancestry, of which they are rightly proud. should think seriously Of the lack of recognition given these men from other shores who, some day may be pointed to by their descendants as the first of their name in this country. Sympathy. appreciation and practical aid and encouragement should be given such men. Employers should make 1t a point to show interest in their actions. and their fellows should follow the example thetr employers should set.

"JEST RUNnNATIN'." (Robert Russell.)

A self-effacin' modesty is mighty good to see, but it ain't wise to wear the sign: Come on; please walk on me-" The self-assertin' habit is a most unpleasant one, an it's not right to ask too much when all is said an done. A worm through life most allus gets a lot the worst of it, am when he comes to turn it doesn't seem to help a bit. It usually ain't best to be too awful mild an meek; another will be apt to get the little thing you seek. For people get the habit, once they sees you make no fuss, O walkin' on you regular-'He's such a jolly cuss." My sput- terin' ol' bowl O briar sug- gests a little creed: It's sen- sible to ask jest that which you deserve an need.

Ii is said that no community will be is not desired.
 A significant fact is that some of the prisoners w1ho worked in the har- vest last year will return to the scene Of their former labors. Such fact shows that some of the farmers. at least, to whom they were sent, were more than satisfied with their de- meanor and work, and prefer to have tho same men return rather than take d chance on new men.
 This sort of plan seems to be good. The chance given these men to be- come free from the depressing or worse influence of prison bars cannot fail to give them new hope and new ambition. The talk of a prison. where there is any talk allowed, is notor- iously evil. No good resolutions are apt to be formed there from inter- course with other prisoners at least, though rare cases of reform have been reported. The short period of being as other men. free to work and enjoy life, must produce good results old. decent thoughts must return in some degree at least. The conscious ness of being of use in the world can- not fail to inspire.
 And the wheat crop must be har- vested. There is a shortage of men and these prisoners will help out. Probably Governor Aliens plaa was not inspired so much by a desire to help the men themselves as the wish to aid the farmers whose wheat is so necessary to the land. Nothing but commendation can be given to the plan and nothing but good to the men themselves and to the country should result.

 TROUBLES ENDED
Trolleymen Vote to Accept Compro- mise Wage Proposal and Con.
 tract Is Signed.


 Now Haven, Ct., June 1S.-The trollymen of the Connecticut company have accepted the new compromise wage proposal of the company, it was. announced here last night after tho state conference board of the trolly- mems union had tabulated the bal lots from all parts of the state.
