"Tanlac has benefited me SO
much I wish | could go all over
the country and tell the people
about this wonderful medicine .
declared Rev. Charles H. Sand

FIVE years, is a member of L. 0. O.

and is not only prominent as a
minister of the gospel, but is
popular as a man and citizen.
Reverend Mr.. Sanders is by no
means the only minister to come
forward with his unqualified en-
dorsement of Tanlac, as many
hundreds of the denomination,
north, east south and west, IN
fact, throughout the entire Amer
lean continent, have testified to
having used the medicine with
the most astonishing and crafty
ing results. In describing his
case and failure to heretofore
find relief, Rev. Sanders said:
AT the time | began taking
Tanlac l had suffered from stom-
ach trouble, loss of appetite, and
rheumatism for twenty years, the
last seven years of which | was
almost as helpless as a baby.
The rheumatism finally got SO
bad that | actually forgot all
about my stomach trouble and
lost appetite.

Sends 294 Staff
 Officers to Front; Executes Others

Sebastopol, April 15.-(By the As sociated Press)-General Wrangel.. who recently succeeded General Denekine as commander of the anti bolshevik forces in southern Russia, began a wholesale house cleaning by discontinuing 294 various staff or ganizations and committees and sending their members to the front five days after assuming command. Two officers have already been exc. cuted for violation of discipline and it has been made clear that insub- ordination will not be tolerated.
 General Wrangel made it clear that he had no platform, except General Denekine's original plan to defeat the bolsheviki annd then let the Rus sian people decide through an elect ed body what form of government they want.
 General Wrangel is an absolute dictator and declares he is working with the conviction that this is nc time to discuss future political pro- blems.
 The economic and finacial situa. ton is bad and food supplies scarce Health conditions however, are i'm proving and the typhus epidemic. is disappearing with the warmer weather.

HOUSTON ANNOUNCES STRENGTHENING PLAN
 FOR LIBERTY BONDS
Government Purchase. Except Through Sinking Fund,
 to End

Washington, April Achievement purchase of Liberty bonds in the open market, except through oper- ation of the sinking fund will stop July 1, Secretary Houston announ- ced tonight. "A beneficial effect" on the bond market was expected to result, he said. Other officials curities already had begun to right itself and that bond quotations here after might be expected to trend upward.
 MT. Houston explained that in con- tinuing the purchase of bonds un- der the five per cent bond pur- chase fund the government was in- creasing it's floating debt while de- creasing it's funded debt. He said that current requirements of the government were such that if the purchase of bonds were to continue the treasury would have to issue more certificates of indebtedness with which to buy them.
 The five per cent bond purchas- ing arrangement was planned by congress to expire automatically one year after the termination of war but the secretary of the treasury was empowered to decide when it had served the purpose of stabilizlng the bond market-the underlying reason for it's original enactment into law.
 .-. End One, Begin Other.
 MT. Houston's decision, however, was based largely upon the fact that on July 1 the two and one-half per cent sinking fund, provided in the Victory loan act, becomes operative. He said it was not his intention to treat the two funds as cumulative, but to end one with the beginning of the other. The approximate amount set aside by the treasury for use in the period between now and July l will be taken over by the war finance corporation which will make all purchases of bonds for which funds are available until the expiration date.
 Hereafter such purchases as the treasury may make for the bond pur- chase fund will be occasional and not habitual," Mr. Houston said.
 The low levels to which bonds have fallen were attributed by him to for ced iouidation by heavy bond pur- chasers-large industrial and other corporations-wh have been under pressure to find funds to finance their current expenditures. He ad. ded that this had come when it had been necessary for measures to be invoked which would control credit and make bank loans both difficult and expensive.
 No announcement was made re- parding the attempt of bonds retir- ed through the five per cent pur- chase funds. All bonds bought were obtained by the treasury at dis count ranging from two to seven per cent. thus saving the government both the interest for the life of the bonds as we'll as the difference be- tween their par value and the mar ket quotation.

WILSON IS BROKEN
 MANI AS RESULT
 OF TREATY FIGHT
Hitchcock Pictures President as Victim of Political
 Foes

Omaha, Neb., April 17.-President Wilson is an invalid and broken in health over the failure of the senate to enter the league of nations. Uni ted States Senator G. M. Hitchcock said in an address here tonight.
 "I want to say a few words about President Wilson," he said. " think there is too little said nowa' days in defense of his administra- ton and in praise of his record.
 "I.et me say first of all that am under no personal obligations to the president. My standing in the senate was net due to his influence. It is no great secret in Washington that I became chairman of the com mittee on foreign relations when the democrats controlled the senate at a time when the president preferred another senator for that honor. Be- fore he left the United States to go to Paris he did not call me into con- su.tation any more than he did any other senator, although l was still chairman of the committee and had not been superseded by Senator Lodge. mention this to show thM I have no personal reason for championing the cause of Woodrow Wilson. I have received no favors from him and I can speak of him as frankly and judge him as dispas- sionately and justly as any disinter- ested person.
 "Todav he is an invalid, broken in health. depressed in spirit and bitterly disappointed at the failure of the United States senate to permit the United States to enter the league of nations. Since last September when he broke down he has known nothing but weakness and weariness and pain.
 "Of course. Woodrow Wilson made mistakes. He made a mistake when he proceeded to negotiate treaty of peace without taking few lead ing membeEs of the senate into his confidence. He made mistake when he hurt the feelings of proud senators by ignoring them until after he had negotiated the treaty. If he had catered to and consulted with these senators he would have had any easy time with ratification. He lacked the tact and forethought. He knew that the constitution placed in his hands the negotiation of treaties and he unwisely assumed that if he performed his duties his senate would do it's duty and consent to ratification"

 q have never written this before the former ambassador added, "but to think I was stupid enough not to understand what he meant that did not realize at that time this man could throw the whole world into chaos and commit wholesale mur- der"
