"My recovery since taking Tan 'jc has been so remarkable that many people who. heard about it didn't believe it, and called on ml to see if it was true," was the state ment made by Mrs. Melvin Tindal of Glasford, Illinois, when she Called at Sutliff & Case's drug store, in Peoria, 111., a few days ago. "I couldn't gei Tanlac in Glas ford, and I've come twenty miles over here to Peoria to get it," con tinued Mrs. Tindal. "I'm as well and happy as when I was a girl, and my work taking case oi live children and a seven-room house is just like play for me now. "Not a single day - passed for twelve years that I didn't suffer. I had stomach trouble so bad that nearly everything I would eat soured on my stomach and caused gas to form and rise up around my heart so I thought it was going to stop my heart. I suffered intense pain from cramps in my stomach, and after every meal I would belch for hours. I fell off in weight until I looked like a skeleton almost and could hardly drag myself around. I was actually ashamed of my appear ance. I .was so nervous that life was a burden to me for just any little noise out of the ordinary almost drove me frantic. I seldom had a good night's sleep, and often I was .disturbed with bad dreams. About every other day I had an awful nervous headache, and my head would ache and throb terribly, and 4 would stagger if I tried to get p and walk across the room. I tried every known treatment, and I got so I thought it was no need to take any more medi cine for it didn't do me a particle of good. " ... "But I'mjhmkful for a good friend of mine and for Tanlac, for at last I was shown the rigHt road to recovery, and I'm pointing out this road to other people, and several already have gona that way and found health, too. I can hardly be live it when I look at myself the way this Tanlac had helped me has been nothing short of remarkable. I'm enjoying healttf now, alter twelve years of misery, and I give Tanlac the whole credit. I've taken eight bottles and never have a sign of stomach trouble, indigestion, or with gas forming and affecting my heart My nerves are calm, and -those nervous headaches have is wonderful, I. eat just anything I want and have gained twenty-four pounds. I sleep like a child and when 1 get up I feel fine. I simply don't know what it is to have an ache or pain, and I tell you I'm happy to be that way. Tanlac is the most won derful thing in the world, and I want you to publish this statement and let the people know what this medicine will do."

The esti mated value, of permits granted dur ing August, 1919, in 168 cities totals $169,858,941, a gain of 274 per cent over the August, 1918, total of $45, 431,709, according to reports re ceived by Building Age. New York, direct from city building depart ments. Again the activity is widespread, 155 cities " reporting increases as against 13 reporting losses. Southern cities report the larges gain, 445 per cent, "with 37 out of 38 cities re porting increases. Eastern cities follow with 338 per cent, 55 out of 60 reporting gains. Middle state cities show a gain of 214 per cent, 41 out of 47 reporting increases; and western cities rhow 94 per cent gain, 22 out of 23 reporting increases. Volume Greater. It is significant that the volume of construction for which permits were granted during August, 1919, is 27, 000,000 greater than for July, 1919, when 174 cities reported, showing that the industry is in the. main in a iairiy Healthy condition. , Strikes have acted as a strong de terrent to construction during the past month and many buildings have been held up. The labor situation, even mofe than the higher level of material prices, has been a disturb ing influence in the trade, especially in cities where the unions have broken their contracts, as did the painters' union in New York. Breaches of faith such as this cause builders to hesitate to accept con tracts on the usual ltfmp sum basis, preferring the cost-plus-percentage or cost-plus-a-fixed-fee as being safer. Costs Show Increase. Costs have increased very appre ciably since the first of the year, due to increases in wages and mate rials. There has been much talk o'f profiteering by material manufac turers and dealers, but so far no proof has been advanced of any con certed effort to advance prices. A commission appointed by the state of Illinois recently investigated ma terial prices in that state; it found satisfactory evidence, that prevailing prices were justifiable under present economic conditions. The present high prices will remain either until there is a decided lowering in the general scale of labor or until more economical methods of construction are evolved.

Letcher Hardeman- he told of var ious bunting trips of Pershing in the Indian country. "I remember the time Jack shot his first deer,", he said. "I was with him. Jack and I, two officers and four or five enlisted men went over across the Montana line into North Dakota, to the old Fort Bu ford reservation. It was in Decem ber. There was much snow and it was bitter cold. -We slept in .tents. But then, that" wasn't much of a hardship. Often on forced marches trailing Indians we slept in tents. Jack had never shot a deer and when he brought down his first he was elated. He wanted apother. As an officer over enlisted men he had precedence, but Jack never shot out of turn, often Indeed, gave the men the best shots when it was his turn. Rule of Knuckles. A sample of Jack Pershing's jus tice, his justice when he was but graduated from West Point, a sec ond lieutenant serving at Fort Win gate, New Mexico, during the Apache campaign, makes an inter esting anecdote. The story was told to me by one of Jack Pershing's classmates at West Point, Major Henry Clay Keene, retired of Boston. "Jacl:," the major said to me, "had occasion one day to discipline, quite stiffly and severely, two privates. He was out a few nights later walking near the fort on his way back to quarters when he passed the two men. They made some insulting re marks about 'that damned shave-tail lieutenant.' "Now Jack, as their superior of ficer, could, of course, have disci plined them again guard house for insubordination and all that. Did he? Not Jack. There and then on the road Jack stepped up to them, pulled off his coat and sailed into them. He licked them both. "There was no more talk by them by any enlisted men after that of that shave-tail lieutenant. Name of Black Jack. Jack Pershing reached West Point on June 15, 1887. That day he ceased to be Jack Pershing. ' Ever afterwards he was Black Jack! Why? How did he get that name? One may ask scores of army of ficers Black Jack's most intimate friends. They cannot answer. They know it is so. But the "why," the "how"' of it they are as ignorant as the world in general, which be lieves the name was given General Pershing becau.se of his supposed complexion. And the fact is, as I have written before, he ha? a light complexion, light hair, somewhat gray, light mustache, mostly gray, and light blue eyes was called "Towhead" when he was a boy. But I was "in luck," as the army has it. t How He Was Nicknamed. In Washington I found a man who knew the "why" 'and the 'how" of it none otherthan Col. Letcher Hardeman. He told me all about it. The cadets at West Point the day Jack Pershing reported there for duty as a "tac" gave him the name. "You know," the colonel said to me, "the cadets always find a nick name for the 'tacs.' When Jack Pershi ng was in West Point the man who is now Brig. Gen. Edward J. McClernand was a 'tac' Pershing and the other cadets called him 'Flaxy.' "Well," the colonel, continued, "when Jack Pershing reached West Point he had just come from the Tenth cavalry was still one of the Tenth's personnel. Now the Tenth is a negro outfit. So the name Black Jack. The cadets some ca det gave it to him that day he re ported as a 'tac' The name stuck to him. Would Fight or Resign. At the outbreak of the Spanish war, while an instructor at West Point, and the War department, by letter, refused to grant him permis sion to rejoin his command, he pro ceeded directly to Washington amd demanded an audience with George DeRue Meiklejohn, assistant secre tary of war. "The government trained me to be a soldier, not a teacher," Black Jack, 'told Meiklejohn. "I've been wating 12 years now for a chance to get some real action. If I can't go to Cuba as a regular army officer I shall resign. I'm going to get into this tight if I have to go out and join the volunteers." Who would not waive regulations for such a man? An ordir was issued by the War department directing that First Lieut. John Joseph Pershing on May 2, 1898, should be relieved of his "duties as a tactical jnstructor in the United States Military academy at West Point and report for duty with his regiment at Tampa, Fla., where the regular and volunteer army organizations of America -were being concentrated under com mand of Maj, Gen. William R. Shafter. Final details were at 'ast -completed, however, and on Tune 14 the transparts sailed out of Tampa and on to Key West, where some dozen ships of war as convoy joined them. Sunday, June 19, found the troop fleet oft Cspe Maisi and at daybreak the next morning the transports and their convoy came in sight of the waiting warships blockading Cuba and off Santiago harbor. Landed Under Fire. Orders were received to make the landing at Daiquiri, 15 miles east by south of Santiago, And there at Dai quiri it was, on an open coast, with out harbor or shelter, with nothing but an iron pier so high as to be useless, our navy accomplished the seemirelv impossible feat that will live always Jn naval history. Under cover of a heavy fire from the war ships, in ?mall boats and through a heavy surf it landed fja the beach , 15,003 officers and soldiers, with a loss of only two men. What followed the landing of our troops all know. Long since the events have passed into history the battles of La Guasima, El Caney, San Juan. What part the division of unmount ed cavalry played in the events is equally well known. Fonrffr Presi dent "Roosevelt, lieutenant colonel then of the Rough Riders, has given the story to the whole world. Not an historian, indeed, but one who has paid his homage to those troops led by General Wheeler those dis mounted cavalrymen fighting as inT fantry. Always at the front of the battle they were at La Guasima on June 24, at El Caney and San Juan on July 1, 2 and 3; Andwhere his men the men of the Tenth were there also was Black Jack Pershing. Story of San Juan. An anecdote about him, hitherto unpublished, was recounted to me in connection with the first day's fight ing at San Juan. It was told by one of the "Three Musketeers." And these three, as I have written and as will be remembered, are Gen eral Pershing, former United States Senator Elmer J. Burkett of Ne braska and Charles E. Magoon, one time governor of Cuba. I promised I would not tell which one narrated the story. But here it is: -"At the close of the first day's fight," the musketeer in particular declared, "Jack's troops were short of ammunition and food. He decided to go back himself to the base and see that the needed supplies were forthcoming. "The night was a frightful one. A heavy rain was falling and the roads were almost impassible. Jack reached the supply base all right, though and was well on his way back with his wagons when he no ticed a wagon just ahead. It had toppled half over in a ditch and was mired, while the mules drag ging it were wallowing helplesssly in the mud. Jack called to his driv ers and went up with them rb offer what assistance he could. T. R. and His Mired Wagon. The officer in command of the mired wagon was floundering about in the mud. His language was sul phurous, to say the least. Matter of fact, he was swearing with a right good will. Jack and his men straightened things out and the mired wagon was soon on its way. The officer thanked Jack, the two saluted and departed, on their sep arate ways. "Jack had recognized the officer. He was Lieutenant Colonel Roose velt. Roosevelt had not recognized Jack did not know him. And names were not exchanged. "Several years afterwards, when Roosevelt was president and Jack was a captain and had won fame as the conqueror of the Moros of Min danao, Roosevelt invited Jack to lunch at the White House. Mrs. Roosevelt and several other women were at the table. "'Captain,' the president said, ad dressing Jack, 'you were with the dismounted cavalry division in Cuba. Did I meet you there, and what did I say?' ' "'Say!' exclaimed Jack. 'That, Mr. President, it is impossible for me to repeat.' "A great laugh followed and from that moment the bond of friendship was sealed between Jack Pershing and T. R." (Continued Tomorrow.) Harvard Medical School . Swamped With Applicants Cambridge, Mass., Sept. 28. The greatest number of applications ever made for admission to the Harvard Medical school, three times more than the school -can accommodate, have been received. Of the 400 ap plicants, 280 must be refused, and even with this culling there is an increase of 30 over the previous limit of 90 for first-year students. Harvard officials explain the great increase by the work of Harvard medical 'men in the war, which they say has brought the school to po sition of pre-eminence among the colleges of medicine and surgery in this country.

Rupture Kills 7,000 Annually Seven thousand persons each year are laid away -the burial certificate being marked "Rupture." Why? Because the unfortunate ones had neglected themselves or had been merely taking care of the sign (swelling) of the affliction and paying no attention to the cause. What are you do ing T Are you neglecting yourself by wearing a truss, appliance, or whatever name you choose to call it? At best, the truss is only a makeshift a false prop against a collapsing wall and cannot be expected to act as more than a mere mechanical support. The binding pressure retards blood circulation, thus robbing the weakened muscles of that which they need most nourishment. But science has found a way, and every truss sufferer in the land is invited to make a FREE test right in the privacy of their own home.

MOVJE STAR WILLS EYES TO SCIENCE - AFTER HER DEATH Directs IChey Be Developed Like Ph(ographic Plates as Sooni as She Dies. Los Ang.ries,N Sept. 28. Clara Kimball Yomng, whose sloe-eyed beauty has added much to -her ca reer in the wiorld of the stage and screen, has dedicated those eyes to the cause of stcience. Miss Younr believes that the eyes are literally the windows of the soul.. She has given written in structions that 'when life leaves her body the eyes tihall be taken at once to a dark room and developed as though they were photographic negatives. "T,hen in the positive taken from the negative, I am sure my life's dreann in all its .sublime beauty and vividness will be fea tured." She takes no thought what ever of the metre physical mutila tion of her classic features, if by so sacrificing berself she can in any wav contribute to the progress of scieAce. "I believe that the eyes mirror what the mind images," continues the star. ' "Students of physiognomy de clare they can 1!ell from the ex pression of the e;pe whether or not a man is telling i'.he truth or lying. If that is so it fo Hows that the eye reflects not only what passes before it in actual life, bi.it also that which the soul contempiates or the brain conceives. "So I think that the dream of the mind, the thought ever uppermost, will become so imiiressed upon the consciousness that it will be re vealed in the lens .of the eye when death has claimed the poor physi cal house in which the soul resides. If the sublimity orf" oneself or the hatefulness of one's emotions are expressed in the .eyes in life, why cannot the wonderful dream of ex istence which we all cherish for our ideal be recorded even after death? "And you know Shakespeare must have believed that the eye lived after death," added the actress, "if you remember his vivid description of the drowning scsne, where he speaks in 'Richard' off the 'sights of death within mine eye:s" Contending that two small elec tric fans are more efficient than one large one, an inventor has mounted a pair on separate alrms from a common pedestal, at different heights and separately adjustable to angle. BEATS MAN AND FIRES UPON HIM 1 WHEN HE FLEES Police Officer Says He Used Club, Fearing Attackv by Prisoner Friends. Police officer Robert Munch early Sunday morning broke his club over the head of Peter Butera, 1334 South Twentieth street, when he and Butera engaged in a fight at Sixteenth and Leavenworth streets, and when Butera fled north on Six teenth street Munch fired twice point blank at him. Neither of the shots took effect. Butera was arrested, charged with assault and resisting an officer. He suffered two severe scalp wounds, according to Dr. A. J. Edstrom, who attended him. Butera told Police Captain Anton Vanous that he accosted officer Munch at the corner of Leaven worth and Sixteenth streets and asked the way to Sixteenth street. "Munch did not answer but struck me over the head with his club," said Rutera. Munch said that he arrested Butera a week ago and Butera told Officer George Sheehan that he in tended to get revenge on Munch for it. Sheehan refuses to say that Butera is the man who made the threat. - , "Butera asked me where Sixteenth street is and before I could answer he swung at me," said Munch. "I hit him with my fist first. I was afraid his three friends would at tempt to help him so I used my club. When he ran I shot twice at him." State Anti-Strike Law Enacted in Alabama Montgomery, Ala.. Sept. 28.
