"My wife is very enthusiastic over Tanlac, and we have good reason to think it is the reatest medicine in the world." said John Tosh, of ttpt Tenth avenue, Clinton. Iowa. "About a year ago she hail a bil ious attack and was in a very bad condition. Her stomach was in a fearful fix. She had several pdins in her back over her kidneys and rheumatism in her arms and shoul ders. We spent a lot of money try ing to set her well, but she kept getting worse. "The first bottle of Tanlac made a wonderful improvement in her condition, and now she looks better and is in better health than in a long time. She has a splendid ap petite, sleeps well and nothing seems to hurt her any more. We believe in 'safety first,' so she means to take several more bottles to clinch the good she has already received from it. We think it is the great est medicine in the world."

The Chi cago hoard of trade, the world's greatest grain market, may withdraw from business ;f the Tincher bill to regulate dealings in grain futures, which was passed today by the lower house of congress, becomes a law, Joseph P. GrirJin. president of the hoard, dec.ared in a statement to night. "While I do not speak with author ity for any exchange excepting the Chicago beard of trade." the state ment said, "it is my deliberate judg ment that tlii- crain exchanges of the country will voluntarily with draw from business and close their market places rather than submit to the intolerable, unfair and arbi trary features of this bill. The ex changes do ii . t protect regulation, and if there be evil in -their busi ness, they have no objection to legis lation if th?y themselves to fail to er adicate such evil. Original Iiraft Approved. "The Tincher bill, as originally drafted, met with the approval of i preventatives of the farmers, mill t rs. country and terminal grain deal ers and the grain exchanges of the I'nited States.

"Tin- incorporation of these objec tionable features in the bill is but farther evidence of the regrettable fact that much of our legislation is not the result Intelligent delibera tion, but n ther is attempt to ap- as.1 '.)' de:aar;s or the wrath of (lrnunt- of our population, and such o-niands are aitfded to. whether Geriain-teed Paint End if cJ-o for mere! v ;th of because of the voting licit or wre-rc;. rutiHTical siren roups. .
