UNIVERSITY HEIGHTS
DOlNGS

Owing to the very limited num-
Der of houses for rent and excessive
rentals, quite a number of new
corners are purchasing lots in the
Heights and building temporary
living quarters in the rear until
they can build suitable home on
the property building line. This
affords them immediate shelter
and the saving of considerable in
rentals. The Heights Development
company does not permit any tent
houses and compels all to install
flush toilets before they grant any
water connections, by so doing a
good sanitary condition prevails.

champion of Tanlac. In relating her
recent experience she said:
81 am a firm believer in Tanlac,

and 1 suffered from awful headaches,

to give up.
'I needed something to build me
up, and that is exactly what Tanlac
did for me. 1t certainly was a lucky
day for me when 1 started taking it.
1 eat, sleep and feel better than I
have in years and can do my house
work with so much ease it is no longer
drudgery for me. There is as much
difference between the way feel now
and what I did before taking Tanlac
as day is different from night. 1 feel
it is SIMPLY my duty to tell others
about this grand medicine. Take Tan
lac and get welr is my tto.'-Adv.

was announced today by Dr. w. n.
West, president of the Country club.

The rebuilding will double the pres
ent dining, dancing and porch space,
Doctor West said. The big verandas
will be enlarged, raised and rebuilt
Higher ceilings, French windows and
doors and special quarters for golfer
diners will be provided.
The entire plan will provide enough
room at the Country club to accom-
modate easily the increased member
ship.
The extensions will eliminate the
driveway east of the clubhouse. Plans

house. For several days it will be
necessary for golfers to use the front
entrance to the locker rooms in the
basement.
Social functions at the clubhouse
will close Thursday with the enter
tainment of the wives of the visiting
state bankers. For the next sixty days
it will be impossible to hold social af-
fairs at the club except picnic and
porch parties. I'VE have observed
rules against picnic parties on the
grounds in the past but the bars will
be let down during the remodeling,"
President West stated.
Arch M. Catlin will be in. charge of
the new work. He was appointed last
night by the board of directors.

ideals between the two companies and
of the desirability of solving jointly
the problems of the future. Both have
striven to make shoes at the lowest
possible cost by methods of manufac-

placed them in the lead in their re-
spective spheres. The companies do
not compete except on the fringeS of
their respective lines"

the county as gathered by the asses
Sors this year is 1886 persons, ac-

today by Douglas Graham, county

Topeka Count at $4,000.
The final official count on the pop

IS within 422 of the government count
of so, 600 persons last year. 1t is con-
eeded that the government count is
probably nearer correct than that of
the assessors, as the latter had so
much other information to assemble.
1t is believed that many persons were
missed even by the federal enumera-

Including the city Of Oakland, with
a population of 1879. Highland Park,
Seabrook and other additions lying
outside the city limits but adjoining
the city, it is estimated that the total
