DYING VERY CHEAP
 IN AUSTRIAN CITY
YienneSe Funeral Can Be Had
 for Sum Of S14

Vienna, July 15 (UP)-To live in Vienna is expensive, especially if one is a foreigner; but to die here is ouite another thing. Funerals cost less in this former seat of the Haps- burgs than in any large city in the world.
 No funeral costs very much -un- less something especially elaborate and extraordinary is specifically ordered. Most funerals cost only a little more than S14, and the aver age for all funerals is only a few cents more than $50.
 Vienna is ruled by socialist gov ernment which it's opponents say knows more about ways and means to keep the population poor than any other city government any where, Regardless of finances dur ing an individuals life, however, the city fathers make dying a bit easier for those thoughtful persons who in their last hours worry over the sacri- fees which their loved ones will have to make in order to bury them decently. The shadow of no con- scienceless undertaken hoyers over the bed of a dying Niennese to make his demise yet more painful,
 No Wakes Permitted
 Of each death in Vienna the au- thorites must be informed immedi- ately; and within six hours after death the body of the deceased per son must be removed from the house to a municipal mortuary. No kind of death watch pr wake is allowed in any home.
 On the day of the funeral muni- cipal motor hearse is provided 10 transfer the body to the cemetery

Among the unusual claims presented

Why Suffer
Stomach Trouble
All Your Life?

Thousands of men and women
who were physical wrecks from
stomach troubles, who couldn't
sleep, who couldn't eat without
after-misery, and whose kidneys,
bowels and liver were out of order,
now enjoy old-time energy and rel
ish their food since taking Tanlac.
Mrs. Fred Westin, of 387 E. 57th
ST. North, Portland, Ore, says:
"Tanlac cured my stomach trouble
completely after three years suf-
fering. 1t built me up to perfect
health, with a gain of 81 lbs. That
was two years ago, and | still enc
JOY the best of health"
Tanlac contains no mineral drugs
of any kind, just a special combina-
ton of selected herbs, roots and
banks, recognized to be of high
medicinal value. Quick benefit and
relief from stomach distress is al
most sure to follow the use of Tam
lac. Get a bottle today from your
druggist and let it start right in
correcting those troubles which
make you so miserable. Money
back if it doesn't help.

George Whitman had been no release.
Dear. conventional minded George had
grown rich in a long. dull business and
died of a long, dull ailment.
She wasn't going to stay alone in
that house. Not for another day. The
dream that had flashed over her just
now, kissing her son goodbye, returned
clearly. What was the name OF that
queer little Arcadia? Lady Lake! A
rather shabby pillared hotel on a Vir-
ginia mountain-so many, many years
ago. and she only a girl. Again she
thought of the pale young biology in
structor from Cornell. their walks along
the shore. his talks of expeditions into
enchanted countries. Joan would have
died TO follow him-until he spoke of
his wife. Then a conventional girl
accepted George Whitman's PROPOSAL,
which had come by special delivery.
Today, driving snugly along a rich
country road. she remembered Lady
Lake with eagerness.

pointed to one at the center of the

negro man was spreading a cloth over
a rough table.
She ventured in, again afraid Of her
self. But the Russians monastic sur
roundings drew her interest. A cot

painted chest against the wall, and
above the window a small silver crucix.
