FROM REMOTEST
PARTS OF GLOBE
Tanlac Elements Come From
Many Lands Far Away
From Here.

The ingredients from which the cele-
brated medicine Tanlac Is made, come
from remote sections Of the earth,
and are transported thousands Of
miles over land and sea to the great
Tanlac Laboratories at Dayton, Ohio,
and Walkersville, Canadn.
The Alps, Apprentices, Pyrenees Rus
sian Asia, Brazil. West Indies, Rocky
Mountains, Asia Minor, Persia, India,
Mexico, Columbia and Peru are
among the far away points from which
the principal properties Of this re-
markable preparation are obtained.
What is said to be the largest phar-
maceutical laboratory in the United
States has been completed at Dayton,
Ohio, for the manufacture Of Tanlac,
which, according to recent reports, Is
now having the largest sale OF any
medicine of fits kind in the world,
over 20,O0O.000 bottles having been
sold in six years.
The new plant occupies 10000
square feet of floor space and has
daily capacity of 10000 bottles. Uni
form quality is guaranteed by series
of careful inspections by expert chem
lists from the time the roots, herbs,
barks and flowers are received in their
rough state from all parts of the globe,
until their medicinal properties have
been extracted by the most approved
processes. The finished medicine is
then bottled, labeled and shipped ont
to tens of thousands Of druggists
throughout the United States and
Canada, to supply demand never
before equalled by this or any other
medicine.

rare marksmen who shoot with both
eyes open-and that meant that he

said simply. "One of 'em won't work

looking closely for weapons. He pulled

end"
Cranston turned through the door,
intD the kitchen. He was gone long
time. Lennox heard him at work /;
the crinkle Of paper and then pour
ing sound around the walls. Then he
heard the sharp crack of a match. An
instant later the first wisp of smoke
came curling, pungent with burning
oil, through the corridor.
'You crawled from your couch to
reach that gun" Cranston told him
when he came In. Lets see you crawl
out now."
Lennox's answer was a curse-the
last, dread outpouring of an unbroken
will. He didn't look again at the gilt
tering eyes. He scarcely watched
Cranston's further preparations: the
oil poured on the rugs and furnishings,
the kindling placed at the base Of the
curtains. Cranston was trained in this
work. He was taking no chances on
the fire being extinguished. And Len
nox began to crawl toward the door.
He managed to grasp the corner Of
the blanket on the divan as he went,
and he dragged 1t behind him. Pain
wracked him, and smoke half-bllnded
him. But he made 1t at last. And by
the time he had crawled one hundred
feet over the snow crust the whole
structure was in flames. The red
tongues spoke with a roar.
Cranston, the tire-madness on his
face, hurried to the. outbuildings.
There he repeated the work. He
touched q match TO the hay in the
barn. and the wind flung the flame
through 1t in an instant. The sheds
and other outbulldIngs were treated
with oil. And seeing that his work
was done, he called once to the prone
body of Lennox on the snow and
mushed away into the silences.
Lennox's answer was not a curse
this time. Rather 1t was a prayer, un-
uttered, and in his long years Lennox
had not prayed often. When he
prayed at all, the words were burning
fire. His prayer was that of Samson
that for q moment his strength
might come back to him.

FIFTH ANNUAL ROLL CALL
BEGINS ARMISTICE DAY
American Red Cross to Enroll
Members Throughout Nation
November IL to "a.

, The American Red Cross will con-
duct its Fifth Annual Roll Call this
year beginning on Armistice Day,
November IL, and ending the eve Of
Thanksgiving Day. National head
quarters in Washington, division head
quarters In the eight divisions of the
Red Cross, and headquarters of each
of the more than 1000 chapters, are
buslly engaged on their Roll Call pro-
gram, according to information given
out at local Red Cross headquarters.
The effort will be to reenroll every
present member of the Red Cross and
to add as many new members to the
roster as possible In the period given.
There are at present GOAL, ,163 mem
bers in the American Red Cross. John
Barton Payne, chairman of the Red
Cross, hopes TO hear the answer,
'present," when each one of these
names is called between Armistice Day
and Thanksgiving Day this year, he
says, thus providing for the contlnu-
ance Of the work Of service to the
public Of America and the sufferers in
foreign lands which the Red Cross
has started and is conducting on the
basis Of Its peace-tlme program.
In letter sent out from national
headquarters, w. Frank Persons vice.
chairman Of the American Red Cross
In charge Of Domestic Operations, calls
attention to the fact that the strength
Of the Red Cross in the past has been
In its volunteer workers. He urges,
therefore, that all chapter membership
committees seek TO re-enllst the larg-
est number possible of the men and
women who have served the Red Cross
rs volunteers in the past, and suggests
that the Roll Call is logical channel
for bringing former workers back to
service In the Red Cross.
The interest manifested in the Red
Cross Convention at Columbus, Ohio,
the first week in October, showed that
the public is as keen to stand behind
the work Of the Red Cross in its peace
time program as during the war, and
that the thinking public realizes that
the Red Cross is as necessary to the
VI lllt NOTlu III time
Of peace as In war Officials Of the
Red Cross believe, therefore, that the
Roll Call this year will result in many
more members than were placed on the
roster Of the American Red Cross last
year.
The Red Cross throughout the coun-
try Is putting on this year its new
peacetime program, which includes
public welfare service in every dlrec-
tion wherever such service is needed.
In health work alone in the last year,
260 chapters have organized health
centers with 6,264 clinics and 90,252
cases in these clinics, More than 1000
health talks have been given by these
ana other chapters engaged In health
work, and health exhibits to the total
of $50, both travelling and stationery,
have been set up to inform the public
on matters pertaining TO their own
and their communlty's health.

READY FOR FLOOD
Chapters Near Stricken District
Send Aid Inside Twelve
Hours.

The Southwestern Division, so ex-
ceptlonally hard-hit these last three
years by disaster of various kinds, had
fine exhibition of chapter prepared
hess in the recent Central Texas flood,
according to information given out at
the headquarters of the Southwestern
Division at St. Louis.
When the Brazos River started ris-
ing and floods seemed imminent, the
Division Disaster Relief Director was
notified and as soon as 1t was found
necessary to send relief, night let
ter was sent to chapters In the vicin-
ity of the flooded district but outside
of the flood area. The call asked for
clothing principally, and in less than
seven hours in one case and twelve
hours in others, supplies were on their
way.
Dallas replied at p. m. following
the call received In the morning, that
clothing had been shipped. Waco not
only responded to the first request,
but sent a second supply of clothing.
Houston sent SS3 garments which had
been cleaned and sterlllzed. Other
towns in the adjacent territory sent
more than their quota within the next
two days, and the result was that by
the time a sufficient degree of order
had been created to look after the
the stricken inhabitants Of the flooded
area, there were supplies on hand suf-
ficient to meet all the needs Of the
situation.
A feature of this wonderfully ready
response, 1t is stated, was that all the
garments sent were usuable and were
the type needed This showed that
the chapters sending them considered
the character of the disaster and the
conditions Of the people needing relief,
making their contributions accordingly,
and did not use the "hit or miss meth
cd Of collecting supplies so frequently
seen in cases of similar cathstrophes.
The towns contributing to this par.
ticular flood, The statement show. In
addition to those mentioned above,
were Port Arthur, Jasper, Huntsville,
Jacksboro, Greensville, and Denton,
Tex. and Okmulgee, Okla. The latter
sent its box Of clothing, containing
seyenty-flye garments, voluntarily
without waiting to be called on by the
division office.
