Tanlac Put Him

Tive never been much Of a hand at

say something good for Tanlac," said
Geo. Davis, 10 Naglee ST., San Fran

soning and it came pretty near laying
me out altogether. For three months
l was In an awful condition and suf-
fering constantly from diarrhea. I be-
came weak all wei and was going
from bad to worse. I tried everything
l knew Of, but it was beginning to look
like nothing would ever reach my case.
"Then, a friend of mine recon-
mended Tanlac to me. And it's a fact,
four bottle have made a clean sweep
of my troubles and built me up to

the poison was administered, and Cath
crime de Medici was freely named as
the lnstigator Of the murder, though
no direct proof hat she was ever con
nected with the affair has ever come to
light.
Wraxwell, continuing his account of
the strange illness Of the queen, states
that "Davllla asserts, In the most posi-
tive terms, that the queen Of Navarro
was poisoned. The deadly dose was
administered, 1t was reported, in the
trimming Of a pair Of gloves, but In
a manner so imperceptlble and in so
nice a proportion that after having
worn them for only a few days the
queen mother was seized with a vio-
lent fever, which put an end to her
life In five days"
When news Of the death of the queen
mother reached the Huguenots, whose
cause Queen Jane had espoused, they
Instantly made the charge, of foul play,
and the king, cognizant Of the fact
that the poison had left no traces, Or
dered the body to be publicly exam
lned. Historians whose accounts are
accepted as authoritative declare that
the two persons who examined the
queens body not permitted to
touch her head, where 1t was supposed
that traces of the poison were still WIS.,
ible, and D'Aubigne makes no secret
Of the statement that the queen was
murdered-though he Is rather vague
as to the mea used.
During her entire life Queen Jane
had been subject to violent head
aches, attended by an extreme Itch
ing sensation, and repeatedly ex-
pressed the wish that the cause Of
this malady might be looked into,
with the intention Of relieving her
children If they should be subject to
the same disorder. This may have
explained the reluctance of the king
to permit an examination of the head
of the queen mother, though popular
opinion at the time lays 1t to fear of
the discovery Of the poison used to
hasten the death of a strong-minded
woman who was extremely antagon-
istic to many of the ruling Catholic
families of Europe.
In spite Of the death Of Queen Jane,
the royal nuptials were celebrated at
the cathedral Of Notre Dame, Margaret
of Navarro being in the full bloom of
her youth, and just at the completion
of her twentieth year, inheriting the
full charm of her grandmother, Mar
garet of Valols, the mother of the
queen, whose death Is attributed to
the pair of poisoned gloves. Apart
from the unusual instrument supposed
to have been used In this case, mystery
also surrounds the type of poison used,
for there Is no chemical known to sci
ence which would produce death
without a trace merely by application
to the outside Of the skin, and the
tragedy took place several centuries
before the discovery of the existence
of bacteria-though the Borgias are
commonly credited with having known
more about some types of p%oisons and
germs than ever the scientists of mod.
ern times.

"THE RIDDLE OF THE POISONED
GLOVES"

THE author of even the most sem
= satlonal type Of detective stories
would probably balk at introducing
into his tictional romances the means
of murder generally supposed to have
been used to accomplish the death of
Jane, queen of Navarro, for here was
an instrument of death worthy of the
Borgias-a pair of poisoned gloves
which left not the slightest trace Of
their deadly purpose.
Just previous to her death, the queen
came to Paris to attend the ceremonies
connected with the marriage of her son,
the prince of Navarro, to Margaret,
sister of the French king. While en-
gagged with preparations for the APP
preaching ceremony, Queen Jane was
overtaken with a malignant fever
which ended her life after an illness
of only five days, and Nathaniel Wrax-

Washington, D. c., March 28-The

certificate of indebtedness which fin
ally becomes due in 20 years. Mean
while, if he wants to get money, he
has to borrow it at bank and pay a
larger rate of interest than the GER
tlficate bears, though the certificate
is as much the obligation of the gov
ernment as is a Liberty Bond and
should entitle the owner to the lowest
rate of interest at which money can
be borrowed. 1t is difficult to under

COOLING MILK REDUCES LOSS

Profitable Crop.

of Agricuture.)
Customer-This milk is sour.
Milk Inspector-Your bacteria count
is too high.
Cheesemaker-I can't make good
cheese out of this milk.
Buttermaker-We can't use this
cream.
Hurts, doesn't It? Yet that is what
happens regularly every year when
can after can of milk arrives at the
milk plant or creamery sour. One
creamery returned over $1,000 worth
Of milk and cream in one year to
farmers. A milk plant received nearly
$4,000 gallons Of sour, milk in one year.
Why? Because the milk was held
and shipped at too high temperature
and the bacteria in it multiplied so
rapidly that the milk soured before 1t
arrived.
Cooling milk on the farm will re-
duce this loss. All that is required Is
q supply of ice and little care. Nat
ural ice can be harvested on farms
where, S5 per cent of our milk Is pro-
duced, and it Is one of the real pay
ing crops of the farm. Few tools are
required; and for the average farm
two saws, two pair Of tongs, two Ice
hooks, one pointed bar, and one
straight board for marking should be
sufficient.
The first thing to do Is to provide
place to store the ice. If ice Is scarce
and hard to put up, it would probably
be well to build an ice house, plans
for which may be obtained from the
dairy division. United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. When ice Is
abundant and easily harvested, 1t may
be cheaper to disregard the shrinkage
factor and store it in pit, cellar, shed,
or other place, and insulate it with
sawdust or shavings. If this Is done,
20 to so per cent additional ice should
be provided to allow for shrinkage.
Where cream only is to be cooled, al
low at least one-half ton OF ice per
COW. For cooling milk, allow Ia tons
per COW. These quantities should be
enough to leave q margin for house
hold use; but it Is better to have too
much than too little. Whenever prac-
ticable, build the ice house In the form
of q cube, allowing 45 cubic feet OF
space for each ton Of ice.

ting ice should Of course be free from
