Feels Fine, Now.

mo sir, I wasn't much surprised"
said Thomas V. Murphy, a we'll known
citizen of Topeka, Kansas, when 1 got
on the scales the other day and found
I had gained thirty-five pounds in
weight. for I have been eating like a

Of Tanlac.'
Mr.. Murphy resides at 626 Monroe
street Topeka, and has been weight

about three years ago was taken
down with spell of pneumonia that
came near costing me my life. After
getting up my stomach. which had
been in bad shape for years, troubled
me more than ever and my appetite
was entirely gone. I seemed to be
unable TO digest anything and what
little did eat would sour. causing gas
intense pains. shortness of breath, and

raging headaches, and felt absolutely
tiredout all the time.
After persistently taking medicines
doing everything possible. and not get
ting anything to correct my troubles
and build me up so I could work.

my case was beyond the reach of med
Efcines. I had been reading about Tan

helping me. I was willing to try any

them-right from the start. l had not
finished my first bottle until L begar

days could tell was getting stronger

me any more and am feeling simply
fine I'm every way. My wife has also
taken Tanlac and it has built her VI

FLU COST TO TOPEKA
Hospital Expenses $4,000 to Date
Total Above $1,000.

What does an epidemic cost a city :?
From February 2, when the emer-
gency hospital at Thirteenth and
Quincy streets was opened, until Feb
ruary 81 the influenza epidemic cost
Topeka right at $4,000. The amount
included in the emergency fund, set
aside by the commission to meet this
expense, which totals $4,000, will be
insufficient, according to health Off
Gals. The city's hospital will be main
tanned at least until the first of March
and it now looks as If will be neces-
sary to keep it open even after that.
The hospitals payroll for the last
half of February itself will boost the
flu expenses above the $1,000 mark,
it is said.
About 100 patients have been treat
ed at the hospital since the start of
the disease wave.
The hospitals expense account up to
Saturday was divided, in part, as fol-
lows:
Payroll. s1.17O: laundry. ssO96;
groceries. $475; staple drugs. $50;
fuel $414.10; ice, SIS: kitchen sup
plies, s217.26. Total. $2,435.32.
The payroll for the first half of
February included twelve graduate
nurses and fourteen helpers 1t will
not be so large for the last half of
the month.

BY CARL P. BOLIVAR.

The exhibition of original paintings
from the American Federation of
Arts in Boswell Hall, Washburn COL
lege. is undoubtedly the finest thing
of she kind ever seen in Topeka, and
fully merits the large share of atten-
ton which it is receiving from the
local public.
1t is made up of forty-two oil paint
ings by the foremost men and women
Of the art circles of New York, Phila-
deiphia and Boston, together with n
small collection of oils, water colors,
pastels and black and white drawings
by the best talent of Kansas.
In the exhibit are landscapes, ma
rines. portraits. genre pictures, and at
least one categorical subject.
In the New York group, among the
pictures that at once attract and hold
the observer are, pines at Evening
by Charles Warren Eaton 1.-The First
Violin" by Rosamond l.. Smith, cover
Jaquish Ledge" by Frances Isabelle
Neill. and MONDAY Sunlight by
Charles c. Curran.
In the first of these, the beholder
is impressed by the power of the ar
fist in depicting the wonderful shades
of gold, apple green and rosy pink so
otter seen near the close of day. when
the descending sun is half hidden by
d IHln ven OF very nlgn ClOuQS-
The First Violin" is a nearly life
sized portrait of a boy about twelve
years old, playing a violin. The shad-
ows and flesh tints in the lads face
are handled in a mastery way, SO
also is the foreshortening in the vio-
lin. Every tone in the picture has
just the right strength to give that
agreeable harmony, where everything
has its proper accent, yet nothing in
trudeS with undue force.
"Over Jaquish LEDGE
cover Jaquish Ledge is a scene in
a rock trimmed bay on the New Eng
land coast. 1t depicts in an admirable
way that peculiar boiling effect
caused by the ebb and flow of the
sea over submerged rocks The whole
eXpanse of the water, out to the is
lands in the extreme background, is
half obscured by rising bank of foe
on which the light of the sun plays fr
opalescent pinks and delicate grays
This picture is just right in style and
size, to decorate well appointed
drawing room or library, and it is &c
| be hoped that some opulent Topekar
may realize this with sufficient force
to the end that the picture may never
leave Topeka.
MONDAY Sunlight" is the picture
of three girls in white, on a rocky
ledge, in the full light of a very cleal
MONDAY. Each Of the figures is beau
tifully painted, especially when the
small size is considered. Also the
binding simmer of light in the trans
parent atmosphere is keenly felt. The
picture has the bluest of blue skies.
The Philadelphia pictures are not
one whit behind the New York grour
in excellence of quality. In fact Phil
adelphia, the Pennsylvania Academy
of Fine Arts in particular, is the rea
art center of the United States.
