Tanlac is one that defies compari-
son.
Listen to this: Just a few
weeks ago / commenced to go

plunge from perfect health and
strength right into a state of
sickness and weakness. My whole
system seemed out of order. My

scarcely anything. My liver was
torpid and sluggish, lost about
all my strength and my color and
appearance plainly showed it, l
was just dragging along, had no
energy, and simply had to force
myself to duty.
IT tried the usual remedies that
were supposed to fit my case, but
they all went wide of the mark.
Seeing so many people buying
Tanlac and hearing their express
sions of praise and confidence in
the medicine, concluded to give
it a trial myself. My system re-
sponded to the treatment like
magic. 1t corrected my troubles
and put me right back in tip top
condition, and did not waste any
time about 1t. My stomach AMI
appetite are as good as new and
l enjoy my meals as much as I

COURT APPEAL
SAVES WOMAN

By ii. c. HAMILTON.

ATLANTA. Ga, July 2S.-There
was no marshaling Of relatives, cur
ious thrill-seekers, physicians, legal
witnesses, and executioners to
watch the hanging here this morn

the murder of her husband.
The cold gray dawn" passed as

Mrs. Wilson's hanging. stayed bv

ing Of an appeal for a new trial by
her attorneys, is still an indefinite
matter.
Mrs. Vinson professed to an in.
terviewer today that she hadn't
given her sentence a thought.
ITO tell the truth, 1 had forgot
ten about it; so. of course, wasn't
worried" she said
Gradually gaining in physical
health, Mrs. Vinson today present
ed different appearance from
that which greeted visitors a month
or so ago. At the date of her first
trial Mrs. Vinson was so weak she
had to be carried into the court
room on stretcher, which won
for her attorneys a rebuke from
the court-and n continuance of
the case. At her second appear
ance she sat disinterestedly at the
counsel table while her attornys
fought for her life. She was tried,
convicted and sentenced to death
for shooting her husband, in a very
short space of time and took the
verdict very calmly.
Now, it appears, Mrs. Vinson
may enter vigorously into her own
defense, provided the supreme court
of the State of Georgia will grant
her a new trial. She Is more Wig.
orous and her eyes say she has a
better hold on life. She still be-
lieves Southern chivalry will save
her from the gallows-even though
the high court declines to give
her another chance for freedom.
Mrs Wilson's appetite is good,
Jail attendants say. She rises early,
eats hearty breakfasts with the
other prisoners in the women's
quarters, and whiles away the time
by just sitting and talking or re-
clining on the small iron bed that
has been allotted her.

LONDON. July 2S.-America leads
the world In wireless courtesy. The
broadcasting stations universally re-
spect the courtesy of space, all
combining to get the highest posi-
BILE efficiency. The Government
regulations are wise and helpful"
This declaration was made by
Senator Marconi on his return yes
terday in his yacht Electra, In which
he made the round trip across the
Atlantic, making important wireless
experiments en- route.
The inventor declared the results
Of his trip will be the speeding up
Of wireless transmission and the
elimination OF static waves disturb
ances which interfere to great
extent with wireless waves.
II found the static waves strong
est near land" said Senator Mar
conf. "In mid-ocean they are hard
that they originate from the land
and are due to geographical fOrma-
ton, the generation of heat. or
other phenomena. From what
have discovered I can improve the
filter circuits until interference will
be practically eliminated"
u. s. Far in Advance.
Marconi said that the United
States is in advance of the Euro
pean wireless telephony. He said
that broadcasting and receiving are
universal. while in England there
Is no popular broadcasting station
owing TO forbidding government
regulations.
'In the United States there are no
chaotic conditions such as are re.
ported here" he said. This Is due
TO the fact that the Government
stepped in when the situation threat
ened to outgrow private rules and
made nationwide regulations which
all are respecting.
Here the regulations tend to throt-
tie in its infancy what is bound to be
the greatest boom"
Incentive ThrOttled.
Marconi referred to the broadcast
ing test-the first in England-which
was held today by a London newspa-
per. which was forced to use The
Hague broadcasting station instead
OF an English station, owing TO the
fact that the government does not
permit IL.
This is the wrong way to encour-

Nothing of that kind is done In
America"
Marconi will spend the next few
months In England. consolidating the
