"Not In a long time have l enjoyed
such good health or felt so well gen.
orally as / do since taking Tanlac,"
said w. III. Johnson, $40 East 43rd
st., Portland, Ore, who holds re-
sponslble position with the Northwest
Transfer Company.
"About year ago I began suffer-
Ing from lack of appetite and stomach
trouble and since that time-that is,
until Tanlac set me right have felt
so poorly that 1 could hardly do my
work. My food seemed to do me little
good, IL any, as my digestion was bad,
and I lost both weight and strength
continually.
"After every meal there was dull,
nagging pain In the pit Of my stomach
that kept me feeling miserable for
hours.
'The gas from my sour, undigested
food would bloat me up terribly and
my nerves were so upset that I would
Ne awake half the night unable to
sleep. l was constantly having blind
ing dizzy spells and could not bend
over and straighten up quickly but
what everything seemed as dark as
night to me.
II was telling friend one day how
bad I felt and he advised me to try
Tanlac and I just want to say he
couldn't have done me greater kind
ness.
~ have picked up all of fifteen
pounds in weight, my appetite is fine,
and although I am eating just any
thing want my stomach never gives
me particle Of trouble. My sleep
is sound and restful and my strength
and energy have been so renewed that
my work is no longer burden to me-"
Tanlac is sold by leading druggists
everywhere.--Adv.

DECISION AGAINST
LEVER FOOD LAW
SUPREME COURT HOLDS THAT
SECTION OF LEVER ACT is
UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Opinion Rendered in Appeal From
Decision of Lower Court in ouash-
ing Indictment Against Alleged
Profiteer In Sugar.

WashingtOn.-The supreme court on
February % held unconstitutional the
sections of the Lever act under which
the government stopped the coal strike
of 1919, and subsequently launched its
campaign to reduce the cost of living
by prosecuting alleged hoarders and of
profiteers in foodstuffs and other
necessities.
The courts opinion was rendered in
an appeal by the government from a
decree in lower courts quashing an
indictment against an alleged profiteer
in sugar, but it was sweeping In it's
terms and will have the effect of end
ing all prosecutions instituted by the
department of Justice in its cost Of
living campaign.
The action of the government in OBJ
tanning injunctions to stop the strike
of miners in November, 1919, was not
before the court, but department of
justice officials said it was under sec
ton 4, which was held invalid, that
the government had proceeded.
The opinion was based largely on
the Indebtedness Of thhe sections un-
der review. Chief Justice White, de-
parting from his prepared opinion, re-
marked that the scope of the sections
apparently was "as broad as human
Imagination and that the degree of
crlminality was left to ever-changing
standards"
Associate Justices Brandeis and Pit
ney dissented as to the reasoning by
which the courts decision was reached,
but concurred in the result.
The chief justice said in his writ
ten opinion that the sections under
discussion did not constitute u fixing
by congress of an 2scertainable stand
ard of guilt" and were not adequate
thereof of the nature and cause of the
accusation against them"
The latitude of possible interpreta-
ton was clearly evidenced, he said, by
the various cases brought before the
court. These cases, numbering ten,
ranged from specific convictions to
denial of injunctions sought by retail
ers to restrain government agents from
proceeding against them. In some cases
the government appealed from adverse
decisions of lower courts, quashing in
dictmentS, and in others 1t defended
decisions in its favor.
The decision will result in the dis
miSsal of profiteering charges brought
against seventeen prominent Utahns
h fourteen indictments found in Utah,
Idaho, North Dakota and Montana.
Most of the indictments grew out of al
legged proflteering by the Utah-Idaho
Sugar company, eight of the directors
of which are named in the findings of
the grand juries of the four states.

LATIN NATIONS ON
THE VERGE OF WAR
PANAMA REPORTED TO BE READY
TO BEGIN HosTILlTIEs
AGAINST COSTA RIGA.
President Porros Declares the Entire
Country Behind Hin In Defense
Of Republic, Which He Says
is Being Invaded.

Panama. --IIostlitles between Pan
ANA ana Costa Rlcu show possibilities
of developing into conflict involving
all of central America and Colombia.
Leading COlOmbians residing i'm Pam
anna have sent a wireless message to
Bogota asking the Colombian govern
ment to furnish them with arms for
the purpose Of enllsting against Costa
Rlca.
II was learned officially Saturday
that President Belisario porras has
signed proclamation declaring war
against Costa Rica. but Is holding 1t
temporarily in allegiance. The presi-
dent, assured that the entire country
is behind him, contemplates taking
over dlctatorlal powers for the defense
Of the republic, relying upon the ma
tional assembly to confirm his ac-
ton.
The presidential decree declared that
the country has been invaded and re-
cites the necessity of expelling the
invaders. 1t suspends individual
rights, calls upon all Panamans be-
tween Is and 40 years of age to reg
lister for military service and con
vokes the assembly for special ten
day session beginning March |.
While nothing has been learned re-
garding the status of hostilities In the
Coto district, where Costa Rican forces
occupied territory held by Panaman,
II was learned automatically that hur-
riedly gathered unorganlzed forces
were being sent from Panama toward
Bocas del Toro.
Lack of arms and munitions to equip
government forces being organized
still is proving a difficulty. The be-
lief is strongly held In official circles
that the United States government Is
In duty bound to furnish the Panaman
forces with arms, since the country
disarmed after completion Of the Pan
ANA canal treaty.
The dual nature of the obligations
of both republics under the streaty Is
advanced as an additional argument,
especially I'm view of the belief that
Costa Rica Is counting upon the sup
port of the recently formed union of
Central American republics.

GERMAN OFFER IS
REJECTED BY ALLIES
HEAD OF TEUToN DELEGATION
MAKES OFFER TO PAY
THIRTY BILLION MARKS.
Informed That Unless Germans Had
Something More TO Offer There
Was No Need Of Con-
tinuing Conference.

London.-Germany, through her
delegates to the conference with the
allies here, on March /, made reparu-
tion offers OF approximately 10000
100000 gold marks, or about $500
100000.
Dr. Simons, the German foreign
minister, had finished his statement on
Preparations to the conference, Mr..
Lloyd George, the British prime min.
lister, replied in substance that unless
the Germans had something more to
offer than appeared In Dr. Smon's
statement, there was no need Of CON
tinulng' the conference.
Suggestion by Premier BRAND that
"Germany's pockets be searched"
found cordial advocacy In several
quarters here. Premier Lloyd George
said that the question of Germany's
would be one Of the subjects discussed
later.
The Morning Post declared, "We
ought to sit on Germany's head until
France is again first-cass European
power"
The newspaper forecast the plan for
Joint invasion of Germany, which
Marshal Foch and Premier Lloyd
George are supposed to have discussed
over the weekend at Chequers Court.
II was declared the plan doubtless
contemplated the seizure of the Ruhr
mining district In western Germany.
Everything is ready along that part
of the Rhine held by the French for
n jump forward on short notice should
the occasion arise. In the words of a
high official of the war office, Mar
shall Foch has but to say the word"
The Germanic contemporaries
created nothing short of amazement
in Paris. Advance information regard
ing the propositions to be submitted
by DR.. Slmons, German foreign minis
ter, as received there, was that the
proposals were more reasonable and
might form the basis of discussion. The
consensus of opinion, however, was
that no discussion was possible.
