Who Are Americans?

A Canadian newspaper voices a
feeling which it says is quite common
on the other side Of the line that
the people Of the United States are
not entitled to the designation Of
Americans" But on pursuing the
subject it finds that the use of the
term has become practically universal
throughout the world and for the
most part without any organized at
tempt on the part Of the people of
the states to monopolize the desig-
nation. It is true that the inhabitants
of the lands north and south Of us are
citizens of the American continent
just as much as we are. While the
Canadians refer to themselves as Ca
nadians and Mexicans call themselves
Mexicans, all of them unite in speak
ing Of the people of the United States
as Americans Even in their officia
documents they have begun to do so
The whole question has apparently
been settled once for all by common
usage and common consent

MOTRORMAN TELLS

Caused Pain-Tanlac Put
Him on Feet.

'Tanlac deserves everything good
that has been said about it," said An
ton Ficber, 446 Ray street, St. Paul,
Mimi, motorman on the short rail-
way.
'sFor three years I had suffered from
rheumatism all over my body. I could
hardly raise my hands to my head,
and turning on and off the current and
handling the brakes on my car caused
me to suffer agony. I had very little
appetite, and l had awful cramps in
my stomach after every meal. l Of
ten had sharp, shooting pains across
the small of my back and my nerves
were badly upset. was troubled a
great deal with constipation and every
few days I would have a mean, dull
headache.
Several of my friends advised me
to take Tanlac and it proved to be
the very thing l needed. Although
have taken only three bottles the
rheumatism has left me entirely and
never have pain of any kind. l am
hungry all the time and no matter
what or how much I eat never suf
fer from it afterward. I am mo-
troubled with constipation any more
never have a headache and my nerve!
are in splendid shape. I don't thinl
there is another medicine in the worlt
that will begin to compare with Tan
lac, and I recommend it to others ev
cry time l have an opportunity"
Tanlac is sold in Princeton by tn,

ing druggists in every town. Adv
