WILSON HANDS OFF
ARMAMENT MEET

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-Wood-
row Wilson, one of the central fig
ures at the Versailles peace con-
ference three years ago, has de-
cided to remain completely aloof
from the forthcoming limitation of
armament conference.
The silence which the ex-president
has maintained unbroken since he
left the White House last March
will be continued all through the
arms conference, it was learned. In
no way will he try to influence the
delegates to the conference or i'm
press his views regarding the
League of Nations or other world
problems on any one.
So anxious is the ex-president not
to be accused of interfering in any
way with the conference that he
also has determined not to meet in
a social way during the early part
Of the arms conference the principal
foreign delegates, several OF whom
are his close friends.
Mr.. Wilson is said to feel that
even social calls by distinguished
foreign leaders might be construed
in some quarters as an attempt on
his part to bring his influence to
bear in the conference.
The position. Mr.. Wilson has de-
cided to assume during the con.
ference has been revealed by close
friends in replies various embassies
have received to letters stating tina
leading foreign delegates would like
to pay their respects to the war
president and to thank him for his
aid to the allied cause.
The replies politely state that the
ex-president, while DESTROYS of meet
ing the distinguished foreigners
feels that he is unable to do So
in the near future, and the inference
is clear that he desires to remain
completely in seclusion until it can.
not be charged he is ''meddling in
the conference"
1t was said by close friends OF
Mr.. Wilson that this policy of re.
naming completely aloof was partly
responsible for his failure to see
Marshal Foch today. He was, how.
ever, slightly indisposed, according
to his physician, Rear Admiral Cary
T. GraysOn.

Motherhood creates almost q
new state of being for woman.
AS a result, new nerves, those
heretofore restful and quiescent,
spring into activity, they cry out,
they tingle, they burn in their
unrest.
The network of nerves across
the abdomen, the loins, the back
and other parts now become super
sensitive. All these nerves are
being called on to perform unusual
duties.
These nerves must be paci-
fed and con1forfed; must be
put in condition for the crisis
that is pending.
IF these nerves are not soothed
and quieted, they may set up
aggravated nerve tension, increas-
ing in severity from month to
month, sometimes even culminat-
ing in a nervous paralysis of the
back and limbs. This leaves the
mother-to-be in a condition where
she is unable, fully, to meet the
test when the climax of maternity
arrives.

Distressing Malady Is
Most Prevalent Or All
Present Day Diseases
Thousands Are Re-
lieved By 'TanIac.

Of all the conditions that afflict
humanity, chronic dyspepsia, Of
what is more commonly known as
indigestion, is probably the most
prevalent.
This most universal malady has
baffled the medical profession fo1
years, and the most skilled special
lists have been unable to cope with
it successfully.
Hours might be consumed in dc
scrlbing the sufferings, mental and
physical, of the sufferers from
chronic dyspepsia and their failure
heretofore to get relief. A morbid,
unreal, whimsical and melancholy
condition OF the mind, aside from
the nervousness and physical suffer
ing, is the usual condition OF the
average dyspeptic.
Dyspepsia, OF Indigestion, as the
case may be, is usually caused by the
eating Of too much or unsuitable
food, and the mucous membrane OF
the stomach heoOmes irritatod, and
theer is set up a. acute or sub-acuta
gastric catarrhal condition which
prevents the proper diges ion Of the
food. This food is apt to ferment
and deconnosed. and as a result the
familiar distressing eymtom~ of dys-
0ensia may arise. IN mild cases
there is nothing more than an IN
comfortable feeling in the stomach
WITH a certain amount Of depres-
sion, headache, loss of appetite, per
haps helching Of gas and occasional
vomiting. There may be also ac.
comranying intestinal symptoms,
such as constipation, pains in the
hack, collie, etc. There may be only
The familiar heartburn due to the in.
flaTmation of the stomach from ex~
cessive gases of fermentation or pu-
trofaction. In the most severe cases
those that last over a day or two
the symptoms enumerated may be
much more intense. The distress
may 10 marked ard the general con-
etitutional SYMPTOMS more evident.

DYSPEPSIA IS GREATEST -.
ENEMY Of MODERN MAN

When this stage is reached the loss
OF appetite, the mental depression,
and the general uncomfortable feel.
ing in the stomach are much more
pronounced. This Is particularly
true in acute gastritis.
1t frequently occurs from con.
tlnued errors in diet that this condi.
ZION becomes chrome, and tre symp.
toms persist for an indefinite period,
The appetite is very apt to be varied.
but at times very good. Heartburn
is frequent, if not constant. The
stomach IS painful on pressure, the
tongue is coated, there is bad taste
in the mouth, and there are changes
in the amount OF salivary secretion.
Constipation is also usually present,
although diarrhoea may alternate.
Most cases CT dyspepsia can be
cure if the Diet is properly looked
after and with the proper treatment.
Proper eating, the proper amount OF
food and hyg;cnic living are the
most important features Of the
treatment. Most people eat too fast
and eat too much.
One noted authority has said that
the stomach is the fountain head Of
health or disease, as the case may
be. Tanlac was designed primarily
for the regulation of the stomach,
liver and bowels. but it is no uncom.
mon thing for persons who have
used it to find that they have also
been relieved Of rheumatism and
other ailments not generally recog.
nizcd as having their origin in stom-
ach trouble.
