After seeing the wonderful results
my husband obtained from Tanlac
began taking the medicine myself, and
now we both agree that it is the
grandest medicine on earth,' said Mrs.
Nancy Sharp, prominent and highly
esteemed resident Of Los Angeles,
Calf, living at 921 Camulus street,
whose husband is proprietor of the
Merchants Express Co.
During the twelve years that l
suffered with indigestion and stomach
trouble / tried nearly every medicine
l heard about, but nothing helped me
and l lost faith in everything. So,
my wonderful restoration to health
has been the greatest surprise of my
life.
Il began to feel an improvement on
finishing my second bottle of Tanlac,
and now after taking six bottles l am
like a new woman. l have splendid
appetite, eat three hearty meals a day,
enjoy them thoroughly and am never
troubled in the least with indigestion
or any other disagreeable after eff
fects.
Before taking Tanlac most every
thing / ate caused my stomach to
rebel and l would suffer for hours
afterwards. / was so dreadfully
nervous that many nights l never
closed my eyes in sleep, but now i
am not the least nervous, and l .eep
like child. My strength has been
wonderfully increased, and have
much more energy.
II just wish it was so everybody
troubled like / was knew about this
wonderful medicine"

BRAND CONFIDENT

RESOURCES.

Paris.-The allied reparations COM
mission, in its note to Germany de.
handing fulfillment of article 235 of
the peace treaty, notified the Ger
man government it must pay one bill
lion gold marks before March %, it
deposited in the Bank of France,
Bank of England or the Federal Re-
serve Bank in the United States, Ger
many was told.
1t must complete the payment Of
20,O0O,OOO,OOO gold marks by May 1.
The commission gave Germany I'M
til April l to submit a proposal to
pay the balance of the 10000, 900, 900
marks otherwise than in cash.
Germany may submit a plan for a
foreign loan by April / with the pro-
ceeds of which shall be payable to
the commission. The commission an
nounced that Germany had virtually
refused to pay the balance, asserting
the 2O,000,000,000 marks had been full
ly paid.
Premier BRAND, replying to inter
pellations in the Chamber of Depu-
ties regarding the London reparations
conference, said that if the allies re.
main firm and united the Germans
will discover that they (the Germans)
have astonishing resources. Germany
had been vanquished, he declared,
but, unfortunately, psychologically
this was insufficiently apparent to the
German people.
NJ. BRAND told the Chamber he
went to the London conference bound
to maintain the reparations figures
arrived at in Paris, but ready to make
concessions regarding the methods OF
payment.
Il frankly told our allies there was

CABINET WOULD
BOOST BUSINESS
DISCUSS PLANS FOR EXTENDING
DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN
COMMERCE.

Washington. - How to boost Amer
lean business at home and abroad
was the principal subject of discus
sion at a recent meeting Of President
Harding with his cabiret.
The president took an optimistic
view of the present period of business
depression. He reported to his Off
cial advisers the substance of the
talks he has had in the last few days
with the heads of great industries,
like James A. Farrell, of the United
States Steel Corporation.
Information which has come to the
president in this way is that the
low tide of business depression has
been passed and that conditions are
beginning to improve in those indus
tries, particularly those which have
been hit by the buying slump and
fall in prices.
Mr.. Harding directed the cabinet
discussion to the consideration of def
mite policies for fostering the eXpan-
sion of domestic and foreign COM
merce, which he sums up as the pro-
motion of national prosperity, one Of
the highest functions of government.
The president indicated that he IA
vors the abolition of lettering re-
strictions imposed on industrial and
agricultural development and great
ed degree of cooperation between
the government and the business &C
tivities of the country.
In the field of foreign commerce
the president cited the fact that the
lack of government cooperation and
outright restrictions had served to
place American business at a disad-
vantage in competing with foreigners
whose governments are extremely
paternalistic in the promotion Of
foreign trade. Such foreign paternal-
ism takes the form of government
subsidies of ship lines and the extern
sion of banking and marketing facili-
ties to exporters.
While not advocating direct subsi-
dies to American ship lines, the
president was of the opinion that
American ships should be relieved Of
the payment of Panama canal tolls
and that the government should fur
nish the same aid to exporters en-
dyed by their foreign competitors.
Secretary Of Commerce Hoover ex-
pressed the opinion that one of the
first steps taken should be the amend
ment Of the Webb-Pomerene act,
which permits combination OF export.
ers, so as to enable them to operate
distributing agencies abroad. He also
described his plan for advisory COM
mittees of the principal industries of
the country which will cooperate
with the government in developing
the production and marketing of the
sort of goods required by foreign Gus
toners. He will formulate this plan
at a meeting with a commit tee of the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States in the near future
