Ohio Farmer Says After Suf-
fering Seven Years Tanlac
Has Restored Hin.

"Tanlac certainly is a real medi-
cine, for only real medicine will
make man Of my age gain seven
teen pounds In weighe and feel as
young as do" said John H. O'Neil,
well-known farmer of Darrowville
Ohio, recently.
For seven years | suffered with
stomach trouble and became so bad

hardly hold to my pillow handles.
After eating would turn almost
deathly sick and bloat with gas until
could scarcely breathe. | had such
dizzy spells at times | couldn't stoop
over to hook trace and would Just
stagger around until caught to
something.
Il couldn't put in a days work
without having such terrible pains
all thru my body | could hardly en-
dure it. 1t was an effort to do any
thing and IL seemed that the more
medicine | took the worse got.
But when | started taking Tan
lac soon felt like new man. /
have taken four bottles now and my
stomach is in such fine condition
am eating like horse without suf
fering, and. as | said. have gained
seventeen pounds in weight. The
pains have disappeared from my
body and | can do a hard days
work and enjoy it. In fact, Tanlac
has made me feel almost as well as
did at the age of twenty-five. and
that's saying a lot for a man of six
ty. Anyway, it is the best medicine
ever ran across, and I'll take it
for mine every time"
Tanlac is sold in Barbourville by

The Practical VielD of a
Cold and Practical World

richest man and King in the world,
he will do his country service it
can never repay.
Solon was the great Greek law
giver whose reputation for wisdom
had preceded him as he was travel
ing around the world observing con-
ditions.
Croesus, the King of Lydia, enter
tanned him and wishing to impress
him, exhibited his immense wealth.
Then he said to Solon, "Ought / not
to be the happiest and greatest man
in the worldi" to which Scion re-
piled:
"All this gold and silver and
precious gems and wonderful gar
dens, magnificent buildings and all
this prosperity in the fields and
cities viii be nothing II some poor
man comes along who has better
iron than you have
Croesus laughed at this strange
statement, but when, some years
later, Cyrus, commanding the poor
shepherds of Persia, who owned only
the iron in their swords, came over
the mountains and defeated and cap
tured him and put him on a pile of
fagots to burn, he realized the great
wisdom of Solon and publicly la
mented his own lack of sagacity.
What Secretary Weeks said as to
the economy of preparedness applies
with especial force right now to our
navy. Senate and House are $780,
100000 apart in what they think
should be spent next year on naval
preparedness. 1t represents the diff
ference between an efficient and
trailing navy.
The recent war cost the United
States $70,000,000 a day. Pacifsts
in the House would imperil our
safety to save in a year less than
a day and half of the cost of war,

vNHE more we read the statements
Of Secretary of War Weeks,

Of Secretary of War Weeks,
the more we think he is going
to fill the bill as Secretary Of War.
He takes a sensible, practical
mans view of cold and practical
world. He understands that human
nature does not change and has not
changed within the range of human
records and that under similar con-
ditions the human race does exactly
the same things no matter what the
CLINE or what the age.
He knows that conditions with re-
spect to the causes of war--namely,
the struggle for existence, the
rivalry for trade, the sensitiveness
of nationality, ambition, vainglory
and all the things which constitute
the tinder of war-exist today just
as they existed in the centuries gone
by and that there is no prospect that
these rivalries and vanities will dis
appear over night.
Therefore, he knows that Ameri-
cas- only insurance is to heed Wash
ington's advice that "the way to
maintain peace is to prepare for
war"
If Secretary of War Weeks can by
energy and force make this nation
prepare for possible contingencies,
be will some day be recognized as
patriot and prophet, and not the
least of those who will do him honor
will be the foolish pacifsts who
would make this country more like
China, with her four hundred mil
lion helpless, starving pacifists, or
India, with her three hundred million
helpless, starving pacifists.
If Secretary Weeks can make this
country understand the significance

him in great pride by Croesus, the

Capitdlizing
False sNeUs :

THE little Daily News, of New
York, prints an editorial at
tacking the movies wholly un-
Justly and on the usual unwarranted
lines.
What the News says is of no i'm
portance, except as an illustration of
the false basis on which such attacks
are habitually made in the press.
The News complains that, accord
ing to report, offers have been made
to the leading figures in various
scandals to appear upon the screen.
The facts are that in all probability
no such offers have been made and
that not only have no such offers
been made by moving picture COM
panies to such individuals, but that
the attempts Of such people to break
into the movies have been frustrated
by the refusal of the companies to
accept them.
Reputable companies are not re-
sponsible for reports which originate
in disreputable newspapers.
The little Daily News recently
stated that Cosmopolitan Produc-
tions had engaged Mrs. Stillman to
appear.
We are authorized to say that Cos
mopolitan Productions has not en-
gagged Mrs. Stillman, has not at
tempted to engage Mrs. Stillman,
has not ever thought Of engaging
Mrs. Stillman, or any other of the
figures which have attained a GER
.ain newspaper notoriety through
court proceedings.
4 Doubtless similar statements made
about other reputable moving pic
ture companies are equally false.
Therefore, we have as basis for
criticism of moving picture COM
panies nothing but irresponsible edi-
torials by irresponsible newspapers
based wholly upon absolute misstate-
ments in their irresponsible news
columns.
And the only "indecency" which
is exhibited is the indecency at
tendant upon the unrehability of an
irresponsible element of the press.

n Thomas w. Lamont assures us

II u ~ Il " " ~ l. ~ W
~ Thomas w. Lamont assures us
that President Harding's deci-
sion to take immediate part in the
councils of the League Of Nations
has put fresh heart in the European
peoples.
Whether it has put fresh heart in
the American people is the phase
Of the affair in which the President
is most interested.
AS one of the satellites of Wilson
at the Paris conference, and as an
unfailing advocate and defender of
the covenant which the American
people 80 emphatically repudiated,
Mr.. Lamont naturally snatches at
such few crumbs of comfort as the
very cautious participation of the
United States in the pending con-
ferences in Europe may give him.
But at best it is pretty meager diet
for an international banker with am
bitions for participations, consorti-
ums and other devices by which
money profits are made out Of inter
national complications.
President Harding will scarcely be
impressed by the Lamont compli-
ments. He need not even look upon
them as the amiable and enthusiastic
errors Of a friend. For this effort to
saddle the present Administration
with part of the burden which was
too heavy for the Administration of
which Mr.. Lamont was so earnest
supporter is too glaring a case of
passing the buck" to deceive even
the kindly tenant of the White
House.
