Miss Hilda Widman,. 245 Hancock Ave, Jersey City, N. J., is now an enthusiastic witness to the merits of Tanlac. Miss Widman. is a tal- ented artist, whose beautiful paint ings have won her an enviable rep utation in New York and vicinity.
 Knowing Tanlac as I do,'' said Miss Widman. T could not doubt anything good I read or hear about it. Before I took this medicine I had so little energy that I dreaded to see day come, for just dragged myself through my work, so to speak. I fairly ached from tired ness and got up mornings feeling just as worn-out as when I retired at night. Some days I could not eat, and being right down sick couldn't run down feeling I suffered from.
 By the help of Tanlac I have overcome that condition and am feel ing just the way I like to feel. My appetite never fails me, my sleep is sound and restful, and I am just as full of energy as I was listless and tired before taking Tanlac. The good Tanlac has done me is also very noticeable in my improved complex ion as well as in the ease with which do my work Tanlac also made a different person of my mother after she had been i'll and complaining for over four years and I think such a medicine is deserving of the highest praise."
 Tanlac is sold by all good drug gists Adv.

CENTURY DISPUTE COMES TO END IN
 HOUSE IF LORDS
Lord Carson, Principal 0bsta- cIe to Settlement and "Last Ditcher," Re-
 ceives Reproach
By AssoeIatea Press

London, December 4.-The cen- turtles old struggle between England and Ireland ended tonight when the legislation giving the sanction of law to the new settlement with ireland passed its final stages in the House of Lords, which for generations bit- terly opposed any accommodation with Ireland.
 The constitution bill has gone through both houses of Parliament without any amendment and even without division being challenged. Lord Carson alone. whose influence was mainly responsible for failure to settle the Irish question in 1914, and who has throughout hls political ca reer been tho hitterest opponent of home rule, persisted to the end in his role of Hast dftcher," even when such traditional anti-home rulers as the Marquis of Lansdowne and the Duke of Devonshire had gracefully yielded to the government view and resolved to give Ireland a chance to prove her sincerity, under new con ditions.
 Devonshire frankly confessed that the month in which he has been deal- ing with Irish affairs in the new government had entirely converted him to the view that Ireland would really deliver the goods" and he re- preached Lord Carson for his de- nunciatory speech. which could only inflame passion and do sarm,

 Ignatz Paderewski, world s2 great est pianist and exPremier of Poland, will probably appear in concert at the Montgomery city auditorium in Jan- uary because Birmingham has no building large enough to accommo- date the crowd which the concert would attract.~ Paderewski was orig inally booked to appear in Birming- ham by the All-Star concert course but when it was found that facilities there were not sufficient to handle a big crowd the promoters turned to Montgomery with the result that ne- gotiations were practically closed Monday for Paderewski's appearance here in January.
 He will appear under joint auspices of the Birmingham All-Star concert course Closing of the deal for the concert here needs only the approval 1 of one official of the Birmingham An-Star concert course and it Is ex ipected this will be given Tuesday.

a material cut in operating costs as would justify tho expression of hope for a considerable lessening of expen- ditures in the years to come.
 Taking up the question of federal aid the executive declared that this was rapidly broadening field of expendItures and that there was a question as to how far the govern ment should participate in it. He added that it did not pertain to the normal functions or operations of the business of government.
 Demanded by People
 These extraneous activities,". he concluded, "have flowed from laws enacted pursuant to popular demand and I take this occasion to refer to thom for the purpose of showing that the taxation which necessarily-<esults in providing funds to meet them Is . necessary indicent to the fuifillment of the popular demand.
 "In the efforts which have been directed to reducing public expendi- lures, have been much concerned in apparent increasing state, countysand municipal indebtednessa and am fearful lest this condition may be in part attributable to the expenditures

 The summary of the budget for 1924 as given to Congress shows an estimated excess of receipts over ex- penditures neSt year of s1s0.s69, ,125, as compared with an estimated de- ficit of s273.sSs,712 for this fiscal year.
 Hopes for Reduction
 The President said. however, that he was hopeful that the estimated deficit for 1923 could be reduced in the remaining seven months and that the close of the year next June 30 would show a balanced account. Estimated expenditures of s3,1S0,- S43,234 for 1924 which are exclusive of the postal service, compare with estimated appropriation of S3,07S,- g40,531 for the same period. MT. Harding explained that the expendi- lures would represent actual cash withdrawals from the treasury, in cluding some on account of appro- priations in previous years.
 Another deficit in postal operations as forecast for this year. but Mir. Harding said it was estimated that
 
 would be a surplus of postal revenues over expenditures in 1924 amounting to s952,4Se. For this year postal costs were placed at $559,e86,S41, or an es- timated deficiency of s31,502,57o, as compared with an actual deficiency in the last fiscal year of $64.346,2S4. The 1924 costs are given at s5S4,65S,- 151.
 The President told Congress that an | >~f nF mended for the army would provide for a regular force of 12,000 officers and 125.0e0 enlisted men, exclusive of the Philippine scouts, which is the tstrength now authorized by Congress and would enable the militia bureau to increase the strength of the na- tional guard from 160.000 officers and men to 215,ooo officers and men.
