 FUTURE OF MINE BARRAGE
 The day may come when it will be rcssible to SOW the seas with so many explosives, timed to go off at given moment, that sea fighting will be seen only on the open oceans-provided the fighting craft can reach them.
 Beyond all question such inland seas as Chesapeake bay, the Bay of San Francisco, the Mediterranean and the North sea can be sealed hermetical- iy by the proper employment of enough mines of the modern type, upon whose deadliness to the enemy we are stead fly improving.
 But one of the tasks that mine war fare involves is cleaning up the seas after the fuss is over. It is, of course. out of the question that these ter rible death-containers should he left to bob around in times of peace. Mine-sweeping is more perilous than mine-laying.

 It took 80 vessels and 1000 men from May 8, 1919, to Septembsr 80 to sweep up the mines in the North sea It was desperately dangerous work. carried on without any of the giamor and stim- ulus attaching to actual conflict, but calling for Just as great heFoism and | te Anfx davfn0 ture on land or sea against the enemy. To the men who did this work must go no small share of honor and glory.

My stomach was all out of order and nearly everything ate soured and caused gas to form. lost my appetite and couldn't eat enough to keep up my strength. l lost twen- ty-two pounds and got SO weak that it was risky for me to walk in the street alone.
 My nerves were shattered, I could not sleep to do any good and in the morning I felt so weak it was hard for me to get out of bed and dress. I was constipated all the time and had head aches and dizzy spells nearly every day
 T was in Cleveland, Ohio, about three months ago, and friend recon mended Tanlac to me. Before I finished the first bottle, my appetite had come back and my food was agreeing with me. From then on l picked Up fast and today I'm ill as good health as 1 was the best cay of my life.
 T am no longer constipated and don't have headaches or dizzy spells any more, I feel as well as I could ask and am able to go to work."-Adv.
