    IN FRAIL PEOPLE
' SHOOLJL1: TANLAC
Hundreds of Men and Women All Over America
Appear To Be Physical Wrecks Simply Be
L cause Their Systems Are Starving
for Nourishment.
There are hundreds of thin, run-down, nervous men and women
all over the United States who should be strong, sturdy and
vigorous, with rich, red blood tingling through their veins and
feeling brimful of life and energy, if they would only profit by the
experience of others all over the United States and Canada, and
assist nature to digest the food they eat, by simply taking Tanlac.
Millions of people* have not only
been relieved of the most obstinate
forms of dyspepsia and Indigestion by
Tanlac after other remedies have
failed, but large numbers of them
have reported a remnrkable and rdpld
Increase in weight and a return to nor
mal health and strength by Its use.
In fact, so phenomenal have been
the gains in weight by thin, frail peo
ple through the use of Tanlac that
this remarkable preparation is now
being proclaimed everywhere as the
World's Greatest Tonic.
The food people eat does them ab
solutely no good unless they digest tt
properly. When you suffer from In
digestion and other forms of stomach
trouble, the food does you harm in
stead of good, because food which Is
not digested stays in the stomach and
ferments, causing pains, swelling, gas
hi stomach, shortness of breath, bad
taste In the mouth, dizziness and
nnny other disagreeable symptoms,
tf this condition Is permitted to run
tn for an indefinite period the entire
system becomes saturated with poi
sons, the patient becomes thin and
pale and In time various complications
are apt to result.
Tanlac is a powerful reconstructive
tonic and quickly overcomes this con
dition by aiding nature to eliminate
the impurities from the system in n
natural way and enable the vital or
gans to properly perform their func
tions. That is why it is called Na
ture’s Medicine.
In fact, there is not a single por
tion of the body that is not benefited
by the helpful action of Tanlac, which
begins its work by stimulating the di
gestive and assimilative organs, there
by enriching the blood and invigorat
ing the entire system. Next, it en
ables the weak, worn-out stomach to
thoroughly digest Its food and convert
the nourishing elements Into bone,
blood and muscle. The result Is you
feel strong, sturdy and well with tho
proper amount of flesh, as Nature in
tended. Sold by all good druggists.

Body of Overseas Veteran
Found In Burning Straw Pile
Near Elk Point—
No Inquest.
Elk roint, S. I}., Feb. 4 (Special).—
—Albert Shay. 30. oldest son of Mrs.
Celia Repp living near Elk Point, was
found dead in a burning straw pile
by neighbors Thursday afternoon at
5 o’clock. It was decided by the cor
oner that an inquest was unnecessary
as it was thought the victim’s death
was self inflicted. He shot himself in
the mouth, as the right side of Ills
head and the top was blown off, and
it is thought the firing of the gun set
tire to the straw pile. He was a vet
eran of tlio world war and was in
France for more than two years, serv
ing several months on the front line.
About a year ago he showed signs of
insanity and was taken to Yankton
where he remained for some time. He
is survived by his mother, two broth
ers and four sisters.
ELK POINT CONCERN
HAS HEAVY FIRE LOSS
Elk Point, S. D., Feb. 4 (Special).—
The Spink store, owned by the Klop
stad brothers, burned Thursday at
noon. Owing to the high wind the
building and contents were consumed
In less than an hour. In addition to
the loss of the building and stock $300
in cash and some checks were de
stroyed. They had $6,000 insurance
on the building. $7,500 on the stock,
and $2,000 on fixtures, which was
about $6,000 less than (lie amount in
vested. Mutual companies had $6,600
of the insurance. $1,200 o.' which was
In the Union County Mutual. This
was a comparatively new store build
ing and stock, as four years ago they
lost their old store building by fire.
SEX IN THE NEW FICTION.
THOSE who have read much of
the current fiction, whether
British or American. mu3t have
been struck with its preoccupation
with sex. On the bookstands today
there is scarcely a novel which does
not play at least a few trills of the
sex motif, and some of them play
nothing else—W. L. George’s silly
“Ursula Trent," for instance. It is
as if all our writers had gone in for
Freudian treatment and were indus
triously bringing to the surface all of
their sex repressions.
The projecting of sex into litera
ture is nothing new. It has been
growing since the decline of the Vic
torians, until now it appears to be
well nigh universal. The veil of reti
cence which the Victorians agreed
to wrap about such subjects began
to be torn in the last quarter of the
last century. Now it is snatched
away entirely. George Moore’s “Con
fessions of a Young Man" shocked
the British reading public, but it
nevertheless gave an urge to a frank
er treatment of sex.
Yet with all of the sex talk in the
new novels surprisingly little of it is
suggestive. It is pictured with none
o£ the glamor which Robert W.
Chambers, Elinor Glynn, and lesser
lights used to strive to throw about
it. The new writers consider it dis
passionately as an important, some
times the most important, element in
human nature.
Yet, for all its assumption of sci
entific analysis, the present flood of
sex discussion may safely be looked
upon as the hightide of the post
Victorian reaction. It must recede,
for as we have It now the drawing
is wholly out of perspective. Liter
ature seeks to depict life as it is, and
in the various cycles through which
it runs, a balance is eventually
struck. One may predict that soon
we shall have novels in which sex is
properly evaluated, neither over
emphasized nor neglected.

Special Cable Diepatch.
Paris, Feb. 7.—The election of
Cardinal Ratti as Pope Pius XI
was received with the greatest
satisfaction in official and diplo
matic circles in France. Some of
the papers Monday night refer to
It as an "allied victory."
It It recalled that Cardinal
Ratti, when Italy entered the war,
declared:
“But for my white hairs, I
would throw off my robes and
shoulder a gun-”
Special Cable Dispatch.
Rome, Feb. 7.—The newly elected
pope for the first time since 1870 gave
hi* first blessing from the outside
balcony of St. Peter’s. The new pon
tiff appeared on the balcony after
Secretary Steflna, of the conclave,
had ordered Prince Chtgl to proclaim
“His Holiness, Pope Pius XI" with
entire reservation in favor of the in
violablity of the church and the holy
see which he has sworn to defend.
Cardinal Ratti, archbishop of Milan,
received 38 votes on the seventh bal
lot, It was said. The great crowds
which had waited in the drizzling
rain, all forenoon, were somewhat
confused as to the color of the smoke
Which appear* d, being uncertain with
the cloudy background whether It
was black or white.
But at 12:30 doubt was dispelled
When the new pope appeared on the
balcony. His public blessing from the
external window of St. Peter's Is con
sidered a conciliatory act toward the
Quirinal.
People Kneel In Mud.
The crowds vent to hearty cheers
when the majov domo announced
the election and as the new pontiff
In his papal robes came out, the peo
ple knelt In the mud to receive the
benediction.
Another event unprecedented since
1870. was the exchange of salutes be
tween the noble guards of the Va
tican and the Italian soldiers on guard
duty about the piazza.
Cardinal Gasparri, who was papal
secretary of state under Pope Bene
dict, was reappointed Monday night
to that office by Pope Plus.
Cardinal O’Connell, of Boston, did
not arrive in Rome until 12:40 Mon
day afternoon, an hour after the new
pope had been elected.
It appeared to be the particular in
tention of Pope Pius to pronounce
a benediction upon Italy and to indi
cate that it would add to the prestige
and to the advantage of Italy if it
gave worthy recognition to the "inter
national sovereign'' of the papapey.
Pope Speaks 27 Languages.
The new pope speaks 27 dnn
guages, Including fluent English. He
.is an accomplished Alpinist and has
made ascents on Monte Rosa and
Monte Blanc.
As the pope emerged on the balcony
In view of the throng, the Italian
troops presented arms and in a deep
silence the pope first read the Ore
mus in a clear voice and blessed the
multitude. A tremendous ovation
followed the unexpected event.

Make Case All More Myster

Found in Nevada.
Los Angeles, Feb. 7.—Constable
Beining at Carlin, Nev., tele
phoned police headquarters at 10
o’clock Monday night that he had
a man answering the description
of Edward F. Sands, missing for
mer valet of William Desmond
Taylor, under aurvellance. Sands
ia wanted at a material witness
in the mysterious shooting of the
film director.
Shortly afterward Lieutenant
Toomey, of the Los Angelea po
lice, ie said to have dispatched
a telagram to Carlin to arrest
Sands and hold him for further
instructions.
Los Angeles, Feb. 7.—Amaing new
details of events declured to have
marked the career of the slain man
were received here late Monday and
added new complications to the maze
of "information” gathered by the po
lice and county authorities In prob
ing the mysterious slaying of William
Desmond Taylor, noted film director.
Dispatches from New York, de
clared II had been learned that Tay
lor has a 26 year old son, Reuben
Davis Taylor, horn in Texarkana, Tex.
It was asserted that this deputed
son had spoken very bitterly of his
father. Every effort will be made to
locate the young man. it was declared,
to learn if he could aid In solving
many angles of the case.
Taylor Married Ada Brennanf
Another dispatch from Buffalo, N.
Y., quoted Mrs. John Ketcham as
saying It was the slain man who in
1906 had married her niece, Ada
Brennan, now living in Monrovia near
Los Angeles while he was known as
Tanner.
However, Mrs. Tanner in Monrovia
stoutly denied this, saying she mar
ried a brother of the murdered film
director, whose name was Dennis.
This brother disappeared some time
ago. New York dispatches also said
friends there knew both the film di
rector and his brother. Dennis.
"I do not believe Mrs. Ketcham ever
met my husband or his brother," Mrs.
Tanner stated Monday evening to
Universal Service at hed home In
Monrovia. "She knew nothing of my
husband and I corresponded with her
only occasionally.
Three Important Developments.
"There is no possibility that my
husband and Mr. Taylor could have
been the same man. They were
brothers." In the meantime, the po
lice investigation of the murder case
brought out three Important develop
ments.
First—A squad of detectives visited
a Hollywood motion picture studio to
closely question a prominent director,
who, it was declared, two weeks ago
endeavored to obtain from the slain
man letters and telegrams written to
Taylor by Mabel Normand film star,
who has been prominently mentioned
in the case.
Second—It was stated officers defi
nitely have learned that the bullet
that killed Taylor was fired from a
point from two to four inches from
the body, while Taylor either stood or
sat before his desk with his arms
above his head.
Third—Captain of Detectives David
L. Adams issued orders to the homi
cide squad to "track down and charge
Edward F. Sands with the murder of
William D. Taylor or lllimlnate him
at once and for all from the investi
gation."
News About Mabel’s Letters.
In connection with the first feature
of the case it was stated at police
headquarters that detectives had ob
tained important Information con
cerning the letters written by Miss
Normand to Taylor, which mysteri
ously disappeared from the Taylor
home after the slaying.
The director whom officers were
sent to quiz was to be asked very
pointedly to explain certain actions on
his part, one person in authority said.
This man was reported to have visit
ed the Taylor home within an hour
after the body of the slain director
was found by his negro servant.
In regard to the new information
concerning the gunshot wound, De
tective Sergeant Edward King carried
to police headquarters shortly before
noon the coat worn by Taylor when
he was killed.
Officers closely examined the coat
and the bullet hole and then announc
ed that undoubtedly the slayer stood
close to Taylor when the director was
shot to_ death.
A short time later the coat was
taken to a gun expert and several
test shots were fired through it from
distances ranging from two to six
Inches.
Captain Adams and the detectives
on the ease held a conference at the
police station and carefully charted
evidence now at hand and clews yet
to be run to earth.
The order to charge Sands with the
murder or to eliminate him as a sus
pect was issued by Captain Adams
after he had received a statement
from a man. whose name was witheld,
that Sands had been seen near the
fashionable court in which Taylor re
sided shortly after the shooting.
She Understood.
From London Opinion.
Visitor (whose husband Is convales
cent after motor accident)—You've no
idea how thankful I was when the band
ages were taken off his face.
Hostess—My dear. I can sympathize
with you—I felt Just the same about

Found Guilty.
BY W. E. KEEFE,
Dos Angeles, Feb. 7.—Charged with
the murder of her sweetheart, J. Bel
ton Kennedy, beautiful Madalynna
Obenchain. went on trial for her life
Monday before Superior Judge Sidney
N. Reeves.
When court adjourned Monday
evening the jury box was fHled with
12 jurors who were accepted tem
porarily by both the prosecution and
defense at the first day’s session. In
the box were eight women and four
men. who were selected from the
first 20 talesmen drawn.
Sitting at. the long counsel table
with her faithful ex-husband, Ralph
Obenchain, at her left and her attor
neys, Judd Rush, S. W. Thompson
and A! McDonald at her right this
beautiful woman, college graduate,
pale and wan from her tong confine
ment In prison, and resembling a
marble lily In winter, heard Deputy
Attorney Asa Keys demand that she
be hanged If found guilty. She wore
a simple but elegant black dress and
a wide brimmed black hat which sat
well down over her head and eyes.
The dark gown and hat only served to
accentuate her pale beauty.
Time after time Mrs. Obenchain
leaned over toward her former hus
band to bring to his attention some
detail In connection with the selec
tion of the temporary Jurors. Sev
eral times she smiled at him as her
attorneys made some point in argu
ment.
Every woman examined was ques
tioned particularly as to whether the
fact that the prisoner was a woman
would make any difference with their
verdict as to whether or not she wus
guilty.
Of the 20 talesmen examined only
two were challenged. James A. Burke
and Mrs. F. J. Holmes were chal
lenged by the defense for having a
biased opinion but the challenges were
overruled by Judge Reeve.
Watching the proceedings from his
seat at the railing, chewing gum.
methodically, and slowly was the sad
silent figure of the slain man's father,
John W. Kennedy. He never missed
a question or an answer propounded
by either the state or the defense.
During the examination four wo
men talesmen were excused because
they had originaV.y been impanelled
for the Jury that tried Arthur C.
Huroh, co-defendant with Mrs. Oben
chaln.
