WHAT IS TANLAC?

Tanlac was investigated several years ago by the Board of Health of the City of Cleveland. Ohio. and bulletin of that Board of Health stated that Tan lac is booze" medicine, that is, one containing no ingredients which would hinder it's use as a beverage. The bull lerin said that Tanlac would do nothing for any one that glass of whisky and a laxative would not do.
 In October, 1918, the Canadian Gov ernment published q bulletin on patent medicines in which Tanlac is listed as available as a beverage
 The Internal Revenue Department of the U $. Government has been rather easy on these beverages which pass as medicines. It vii be remembered that Peruna was classed some years ago as a preparation which could be utilized for beverage use, and the manufacture assured the public that 'at the request of friends of Peruna" he had added laxative to his valuable medicine. The laxative was said by the North Dakota Board of Health to be senna Certain ly the addtiondid not make the med icine taste very disagreeable. And the thirsty" do not mind the laxative if the taste suits So, notwithstanding all that has been done to bring pressure upon the authorities to stop the sale of Tanlac and other beverage medi- eines the sale has gone on with slight additions of drugs to appease the in. ce.tieators,
 Women who want medicine that iS of service should consult the very best physician available, and not waste mon ey and time on such things as Tanlac
 One testimonial saying that the wo@ man had recovered through Tanlac was from woman who had cancer, and did not know what she was signing when the agent presented a written tes timonial for her to sign Martha M. Allen. National Superintendent of Med. icaI Temperance.

 Credit for conquering the fire is due C. r. Clayton, vice president of the Caddo Central, and Red" CheSsiere. field superintendent, who ar eexperts in this line. After several futile at tempts their original steam line plan finally was successful. but not until part of the gas flow was diverted. thus leSsening the flame. Part of the gas flow was drawn away through an eight inch casing This reduced the pressure and made the flame smaller, which en- abled the eight steam lines to overcome the resistance and cut the flame in two.
 The attack yesterday failed because the water tank collapsed just as the steam pressure was applied. Red" Chessiere was ready for another attack al 30 this afternoon \ head of steam was maintained for about 20 minutes before the flame was severed
