DIRECTOR TELLS i OF BIG CHANGE Declares Money Couldn't Buy the Good Tanlac Did '! Him. "If I could sell the good Tanlac has done me no amount of money could buy it," said T. B. Whit'.edge, division director for the Great West ' ern Accident Insurance Company, living at 778 Wabasha street, St, PauV in an interview recently. Mr. Whitledge has been connect ed with the Great Western in his present capacity for a number of vears. He was four years in Oma ha. Nebraska, five years in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and has just opened offices for his company in the Metropolitan Bank Building in St. Paul. "Everywhere I go," continued Mr. Whitledge, I have a good word for Tanlac and the reason is this; the medicine has gotten me' over trou- blei of eighteen years standing. In 1901 I had a spell of. yellow fever which put my stomach and kidneys in very bad shape. My stomach, es pecially, was in awful condition and I felt very much discouraged. Every thing I ate would ferment and the gas from it .would bloat me up and cau8e.such fearful pain that the cold sweat would come out all over me, and.it just looked hko aie i would at times. There1 were, awful pains Mv-the region of my kidneys and I was all run:down generally. I felt so sick ana .miserable that; I often" had to go Pretty easy, not ' getting out of the house forXwo or ' three daysat a time. I had severe pains lit the back of my neck'iex- tending up 1 into my .head and at times I got so dizzy that 'seemed like- .the. 'ground was coming up; to my. face: Sometimes, when ,these spells were at their worst, I couldn't sit up, and while I doctored and took all kinds of medicines, nothing did me any good. - - , -, "While in ! Sioux Falls around "a year and a half ago I was attracted by the Tanlac display in a drug store window and decided to take a chance on the medicine helping roe. Well, . it has Tiot only helped me, it has . . made a new man of me and I like to pass the ood word along for the benefit of others.- Before -1 had hardly finished my second bottle I had a good appetite and could eat and sleep tetter.' From then on I kept gradually improving and when I finished my seventh bottle of Tan lac I was feeling just about right. ' I could sleep all njght long and get up in the mornings feeling good. My kidney were in pretty good . shape and my stomach so good that I could, eat just anything, and I am still at it although it has been a year and a half since Tanlac straightened me up. It is very seldom that I ever . have a headache now or feel the least bit dizzy. I can't recommend . Tanlac too highly." Tanlac is sold in Omaha by all Sherman & McConnell Drug Com pany's stores, Harvard Pharmacy and West End Pharmacy. Also For rest and Meaney Drug Company in South Omaha and the leading drug gist in each city and town through out the state of Nebraska. Adv. Gel M. IVER j pius PROVISIONS IN SLUMP AT SAME TIME CORN DROPS Housewives Find Some Con solation in Result of An nounced Decision of Grain Corporation Head., v (Continued From Pag On.) at present in position to extend the same credit to Europe that the United States is. Also it has been kept out of the United States by the restrictions of the government which is not unmindful of the record-break-insr domestic crop in prospect. The government long ago as a war measure eliminated wheat from the speculative arena, but the for tunes of wheat are proportionately the fortunes of corn, oats and pro visions also, and these staples show ed the effect of the pronunciaments. Corn Market Wobbly. Prior to the bulletin the corn mar ket had been wobbly and off a few cents for a variety of reasons, in cluding increased receipts and low er quotations for live hogs. There were also many small buyers in the market on small margins. They were sold, out wholesale when the real break came in the afternoon. Prices dropped like a plummet and were near the bottom when the clos ing irons sounded. Even after that curb traders were reported offering July1 corn at seven-eighths of a cent under the ofhcial close, wnicn was $1.5334 to $1.54J4. Milling Protected. New York, April 29. Comment ing on his notice that government purchases of "white" flour for ex port would be discontinued, with a view to stopping speculation, Julius H. Barnes, federal wheat director, announced through the food admin istration grain corporation today that the- speculative tendency threatened unless checked, to carry flour prices above their proper re flection of the federal re-sale price of wheat. Under the government re-sale rates, the statement said, legitimate muling was protected for tair re turns. Since there was in the hands of American millers, or directed by them, it continued. 80.000,000 to 90,000,000 bushels of wheat, only part of which probably was directed to flour users, the present sharp ad vances in flour prices were not "fully warranted," if they were continued the announcement asserted, import restrictions would be relaxed to per mit foreign wheat and flour to enter. Today s warning to speculators was the second issued by Mr. Barnes' office this month. Flour Rise Not Justified. St. Louis, April 29. Commenting on the tremendous price smashing that took place on the Chicago board of trade- today, Julius H. Barnes, federal wheat director,, tonight in a statement to the Associated Press, said the government will discon tinue, until further announcement, export purchases of wheat as a pre ventive of speculative hoarding. Mr. Barnes, who arrived tonight to atte'hd the United States Chamber of Commerce convention, declined to discuss the corn situation, saying that branch of the administration was not under his jurisdiction. His statement follows: "The steady advance in the market price of flour is not justified by any scarcity, actual or impending, as reserves have been carefully pre served for the demands of the coun try. "The mills are grinding 11,000,000 bushels of flour -weekly, while our domestic consumption does not ex ceed 8,000,000 bushels. It is there fore a simple problem to offset any speculative hoarding of flour, to dis continue export purchases.. "The grain corporation fortunite ly, is supplied with sufficient food slocks to carry out its obligations, including the large relief program abroad; and is able to and will dis continue wheat flour purchases for export as long as domestic prices make this desirable."

The final draft of the treaty is virtually completed. The men in charge of the work say they have no further doubt that they will be able to finish their work by Thurs day or by such time as delivery is made. The latest count shows a to tal of 80,000 words in the treaty. An official summary of 10,000 words has been made. It is in such shaoe that it could be made public at once, but the intention is to hold it for publication throughout the world at about the same time that the treaty is delivered to the Ger mans. The various governments are cabling this summary every where for simultaneous release when authorization is given by the con ference. No Action on Ex-Kaiser. Doubt has arisen whether the re sponsibility of the former German emperor will be included in the peace treaty owing to the failure of the plenary session to take action on the report of the council of four recommending his prosecution, which was on yesterday's agenda. Parliamentarians say that the council might still include its report in the treaty, but as the subject, is one on which a plenary conference ordered the report inaction on the report prevents its inclusion in the treaty unless the expected secret plenary session of the conference directs further action.

Tendency to Constipation? USE THIS LAXATIVE! Dietitians advise a "careful diet," but that is trouble some to most people; physical culturists advise "certain exercise," which is good if one has both the time and the inclination. Doctors advi.se diet and exercise and medicine. The question is, shall it be a cathartic or purgative med icine? Or a mild, gentle laxative? -' Thousands have decided the question to their own satis faction by using a combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin known to druggists as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. A small dose gives a free, easy movement of the bowel. It is the best substitute for nature herself. In fact, since the ingredients are wholly from the vegetable kingdom it may truthfully be mid it is a natural laxative. Its positive but gentle action on the bowels makes it an ideal remedy for constipation. The dose is small, and it may be taken with perfect safety until the bowels are regulated and act again of their own accord. The druggist will refund your money if it fails to do Bt promised.

His year as assistant chief was up on February 1 s( this year, but he did not retire at. that time as he announced that he did not feel that he had outlived his usefulness as a police official. Recently, however, as exllusively announced in The Bee, he stated that he had been asked by Police Commissioner Ringer to retire. Mr. Dempsey has been offered two positions, one being- that of investi gator for County Attorney Shotwell, and the other is a government posi tion. It is probable that he will ac 6ept the place in the county attor ney's office at a salary of $1,500 a year. Nation-wide Record. Omaha's retiring police official is known throughout the country as one of the most competent men in his line of work. He has encoun tered the most trying experiences that fall to the lot of a policeman during one-third of a century of service, but there has never been one mark of discredit or bad judgment charged against him. His judgment in "tight places" was always cool and carefully calculated. He won the respect and esteem of the men with whom he was associated, when he was one of the rank and also when he was in various positions of command. This afternoon he will doff his po lice badge for the first time in 33 years and six months. Campaign for Wilson as First League President Paris, April 29.

"I think it opportune to recall briefly the attitude of the Italian delegation in that phase of the ne gotiations which begun about he middle of March. At that time the prcparator work was finished and a prora. t for definite deliberation had to be decided upon. Questions concerning peace with Germany were given the precedence, but it was agreed that those regarding Italy should follow immediately." Citizens Demand Annexation. Demonstrations in Rome in sup port of the government's stand on the Adriatic question culminated in a great mass meeting, convoked by Prince Colonna, the mayor, on the Capitoline hill. The citizens at the meeting adopted unanimously a res olution asking the annexation of all territory given to Italy by the treaty of London and also Fiume. The resolution also urged the gov ernment to remember the "suffer ings and hope of Spalato and Trau." The assemblage took a solemn oath to remain united as the famous Capitoline bell was rung. Prince Colonna presided at the meeting and municipal officials attended. A procession afterward went to the quirinal where the king and queen appeared on the balcony of the palace.
