win Be Confirmed.

In the end Mr., Colby viii be con-
firmed but II would not be surprising
70 find a resolution adopted expressing
the senates opinion Of the choice.
There are senators, on the other
hand, who think Il is about time to
stop confirming cabinet officers as a
matter OF courtesy and TO make In
CURRY into their qualifications.
They contend that cabinet responSl-
bllity will never be emphasized until
congress establishes a precedent that
would make the president give as much
regard to the advice" of the senate on
cabinet appointment as any other Sc
lection that requires confirmation by
the senate.
Mr. Wilson has on more than one oc-
casion held back from appointing men
who might not be confirmed by the
senate and has In one conspicuous case
that Of Thomas H. Jones, of Chicago
Withdrawn a nomination for CHAIR
manship OF the federal reserve board
The Colby appointment however. Is
not merely personal choice but Il
rouses the political ire OF Mr. Wilson's
opponents on Capitol Hill, who Incl
dentally have been feeling none too
pleased over the selection OF Charles
X. Crane to be minister TO China, u
post for which he started only TO he
called back home by philander G, Knox
then secretary OF state, and now an ac-
tive foe Of the president in connection
with the treaty fight
Speaking OF political repartec, the
nomination OF Mr.. Crane is hardly
palatable to Republicans.

my life, twas the remarkable staten emit
made by Mrs. Bethel R. Leonard, 8 Will

evenings ago.
''Could sit here all night" she added,
"and talk about the good Tanlac has done
me and then not tell it all. Five years
ago l commenced suffering from what
was called complication of troubles,
but as no one seemed to understand my
ca Sc or know what to do for me, kept
going down hill. II spent some time in
hospital, was under special treatment for
two years and did everything possible,
but l kept getting worse, My nerves
troubled me more than anything else and
it was almost impossible for me to get
any sleep at all, for would just roll and
toss from one side of the bed to the
other all night long and if did happen
to drop off to sleep would wake up with
start almosta frightened to death. Why,
even the ringing of the front door bell so
completely upset me | had to have it
taken off, and there were days when the
talking and noise around the house would
almost drive me distracted My appetite
was extremely poor, and | did not eat
enough it would seem for q baby-a slice

on my feet. | had terrible pains all over
my body all the time and sometimes these
pains were so bad it seemed like every
bone in my body was splitting in two,
and my head would ache SO thought lots
of times it would burst open.
Il decided to try Tanlac after seeing
where it was benefitting SO many other
people and to my Joy l began to improve
on the very first bottle. have taken six
bottles in all and the benefits l have re-
ceived are more than remarkable. My
nerves are in such perfect condition | can
hardly believe l am the same person.
Why, Just the other night chaperoned
200 school children and the noise made by
them never disturbed me in the least |
