Has the removal or cure of remedi-
able defects in school children had the
great beneficial effects that were ex-
pected? Nobody knows; for both time
and follow-up methods have been
lacking. Now, however. the U. S.
Public Health Service is making ar
rangements to have such children in
all parts of the country followed up
for some years to learn how greatly
they have actually profited by the help
given them. 1t will welcome addition
al information along these lines from
all sources.

Pa. popular clothing salesman for the
well-known firm of Croll & Keck:
1 was almost desperate from wor-
rying over her condition, as she had
suffered so long without getting relief
and | can hardly believe my own eyes
row when | see the change in her.
Why. she doesn't show her age by
twenty years and declares she never
remembers feeling better in her life.
Her health was failing steadily for 4
year as a result of catarrh, of the
stomach, and | have never seen any
body suffer as much from indigestion
and nervousness as she did.
After a five weeks course of Tan
lac she was like another person, and
| m firmly convinced that years have
been added to her life. 1t makes me
shudder now when | think what the
result might have been if she hadn't
taken Tanlac in time

gists everywhere. adv

LIFE IS NORMAL
AT THE CENTER
OF POPULATION
First Location Given and Marked
By Wooden Monument Proved
To Be OFF Two Miles

Bloomington, Ind, Oct. 21.-No-
where is a return to normalcy more
evident than down in southern In
diana at the center of population OF
the United States. The old familiar
House for Rent" sign is hanging out
and at Ben Ranards blacksmith shop
the Hoosier villagers are whiting on
goods boxes and specializing on
whether or not the earth is round,
Just as they did before the war.
1t will be long time before they
quit talking about the great day when
they held celebration and dedicated
to their little village of Whitehall a
ten-foot wooden monument, set up on
the main road, bearing the proud in
scription, Center of Population, U .
S. A.-1920." But their first flush of
excitement and pride suddenly
changed to lament and disgust when
Professor w. A. Cogshall, Indiana
University astronomer, came out to
Owen county and after few nights
of star gain as the natives called
it, determined from astronomical cal
culations that an old beech tree in a
hillside briar patch on Russell Robin
sons farm two and one-half miles
west of Whitehall and eleven miles
west of Bloomington, seat of Indiana
University and former center of pop
ulation, was the new hub of the ma
ton.
From that day to this the natives
have had no interest in their sudden
leap into national limelight. Oliver
Ranard, who lived within 200 yards of
the old beech tree, has moved out. He
served notice that the center of pop
ulation is no place for the rent prof.
teer by moving two miles down the
road where he gets a house, barn,
garden and pasture free. There, with
in 200 yards of the center of popula-
ton, the five room bungalow he for
merly occupied stands, wanting a rem
ter at SIS per month. Garden, orchard,
pasture, heavily laden walnut trees
in the front yard, a big persimmon
patch down the road, paw paws,
squirrels within gunshot, fish in Lit

agents, and with church only

not renter in sight. The housing
situation is not a problem at the CEN
ter of population.
Ben Ranard has been urged to
open up a cold drink stand in connec-
ton with his blacksmith shop, which
is the nearest business establishment
to the population beech. He serves
as free information bureau for seek
ers after the center of population, and
sympathetic. well minded travellers
have pointed out to him that his pop
stand would be the business hub of the
country, stragetically located for nat
ional trade from north, south, east
and west. But Ben insists that the
1920 census can bring no good to the
People of Owen county, Indiana, until
they take the center of population
away from that consumed old
beech tree and put it back at White
hall where it would be convenient
and where it ought to have been left
in the first place.

GETS CRACKER, DOG

West Palm Beach, Oct. 21.-Sheriff
r. c. Baker, of Palm Beach county,
has received from a kennel in Ala
bama full blooded bloodhound and
her two three months old puppies
and is planning to train them to trail
criminals. The sheriff declares that
because of the climate the full blood
ed hound does not thrive well and
that the proper dog is cross between
the blood hound and the red bond
hound. He expects to use the blood
hounds principally for breeding pur-
poses in the hope that he can develop
q dog that is able to withstand black
tongue, a disease which attacks the
full blooded hound in this climate.
"A regular Cracker dog" is what
Baker plans to produce.
