THRIFT URGED
IN CHURCHES OF
OMAHA SUNDAY
National Prohibition Day Ob
served in Memory of the
Day the Nation
Went Dry.
"Thrift" wis the subject on which
many pastors preached in Omaha
churches yesterday, the first day. of
"Nations! Thrift week." They took
texts from many parts of the Bible,
pointing out that the great book is
ful! of examples of thrift.
The Savior Himself was constant
ly preaching thrift in word and
deed. When He fed the 5,0(10 he
ordered that the remnants be gath
ered up after the multitude had
eaten, "so that nothing be lost."
At Hanscom Park Methodist
church short talks were made on
the subject by L. C. Sholes, E. M.
Wellman and B. A. Wilcox, who
are, respectively, a real estate man,
a lawyer and a banker. The pastor,
Rev. Arthur Atack, also spoke on
the subject.
Some churches celebrated yester
day as "national prohibition day," in
memory ot the nation becoming
"dry" by cperation of the eighteenth
constitutional amendment. At North
Presbyterian church Rev. J. M.
Wilson preached in the morning on
"The Obligations of Brotherhood as
the Basis of National Prohibition."
Rev. Albert J. Lovelee of the
Church of the Transfiguration.
Brooklyn, N. Y.. preached at All
Saints Episcopal church in the morn
ing.
The Epworth league of the First
Methodist church served a luncheon
just before its regular meeting last
evening.
Rev. James A. Tancock spoke on
"The Battle of Life" at the Young
Men's Christian association in the
afternoon. '
AlEes Give Reasons
For Requesting Holland
To "Deliver" Ex-Kaiser
Paris, Jan. 18. The supreme
council's note to the Dutch govern
ment asking that the former Ger
man emperor be given up to the al
lies under article 227 of the Ver
sailles treaty for trial points out
that if the former emperor had re
mained in Germany he would have
been delivered up under the same
conditions by the German govern
ment. "Among so many crimes," the note
recalls the "cynical violation of the
neutrality of Belgium and Luxem
bourg; the barbarous system of
hostages; massed deportations, sys
tematic devastation without military
reasons, the submarine warfare,'
and declares:
"For all of which acts responsibility,-
at least moral, reaches the
supreme chief, who ordered them or
abused his unlimited powers to
breaki or permit others to break,
the Tnostacred rules of human
conscience. ' .
"The powers cannot conceive, it
adds, "that The Netherlands would
regard with less reprobation than
themselves the immense responsibil
ity weighing upon the ex-emperor,.
Holland would not be fulfilling her
international duty if she. refused to
associate herself with other nations,
so far as she is able, to prosecute, or
at least not impede, the punishment
of crimes committed."
It -concludes by expressing the
conviction that Holland, one of the
first to claim a place in the league
of nations, will not desire to cover
by moral aothority violation of the
essential principles of the solidity
of nations and that all are inter
ested to prevent a return of a similar
catastrophe.
Away Tradition! British
Parliament Installs "Mills"
London, Jan. 17. More records
are being broken by the "mother of
parliaments."
After a spirited battle tn the pres
gallery, age-old traditions have been
shattered and typewriters are to be
admitted. A special room has been
set aside for them. '
There are few country weeklies
in the states where a "cub" can land
without knowledge of the usual
office- "mill." In Fleet street but
few reporters use a typewriter,
though all know shorthand. The
sentiment against them is so great
that it was only after the younger
generation in Parliament's press gal
lery "went to the mat" for weeks
that they won a place for typewrit
ers tn the house.
WOMEN'S DOCTOR
SAYS BARE LEGS
DON'T CAUSE COLD
Colds Caught Through Sold of
Feet and Not on Limbs,
Dr. Durand Says.
Paris, Jan. 18. First 1920 expo
nents of the stockingless fad have
availed themselves of the wave of
warm weather of the last few days
by appearing barelegged at well
known restaurants and dancing pal
aces. Dr. Durand, the celebrated wom
an's specialist, states no woman will
ever catch cold or the grip through
going stockingless, as colds are
caught through the soles of the
feet, and not on the limbs.
Through wearing cobwebby stock
ings women's limbs become inured
against cold.
The leading Rue de la Paix per
fumer just has invented a new tal
cum powder which does not rub off
and only is eradicated by applying
water. The perfumer claims this tal
cum powder will prove a great boon
for extreme decollete dresses and
tha barelegged fashion, as women
witk red complexions can apply it
without fear of it brushing oh! im

(Continued From Fare One.)
be easily construed to mean, if in
deed it does not make it, a crime, so
vague and involved is the terminol
ogy, to wear in public any button of
an organization whose purpose it is
to secure an amendment to the con
stitution of the United States or
any existing federal law.
"Section 6 perpetuates the censor
ship of the postmaster general over
all newspapers and printed matter.
The so-called Borah amendment,
providing a court review of the post
master general's action, is sound in
principle but is inadequate to afford
protection as a practical matter to
a publisher against the autocratic
action of the postmaster general. ,
Censorship Set Up.
"More amazing still, the proviso
sets ud a censorship over any man's
private correspondence by the post
master general. It would be crim
inal for example, for a man to send
a letter advocating resistane to
an injunction issued by a federal
judge ordering workers on strike to
go back to work. Moreover, this
section can be used to prevent the
organization of colored labor on
the grounds of inciting 'racial' prej
udice the intended or probable re
sult of which appeal is to cause riot
ing, etc. No doubt advocacy cf, or
opposition, to ' the cause of Irish
freedom would in some sections be
prohibited.
"Section 7 would exclude from this
country, even for libraries &nd in
vestigators, . a large portion of the
labor literature of Europe.
Sections 9, 10 and 11 contain a
grave threat aimed at labor. Section
9 maks unlawful every association
which seeks 'directly or indirtctly'
to make political change by injury
to private property. It is unhappi
ly true that even a legitimate strike
may result i indirect.jljn jury to the
employers' private property right in
his business. The recent steel and
coal strikes were both falsely her
alded a? attempts to overthrow our,
government.
v Could Expel Union,
! "If hostile federal judges should
decide that any, particular strike has
a political end in view and the
striking union is 'affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor, the
American Federation of Labor
would be compelled at once to expel
the striking union or itself become
unlawful. And it would at once be
come a crime punishable by up to
20 years imprisonment or up to $20,
000 fine, or both, for any person any
where in the nation "to rent a hall
or business office to any labor or
ganization affiliated with the Ameri
can Federation of Labor or to give
or loan it money to send strike relief
to starving women and children.
"In general this is a bill against
opinion and advocacy. It proposes
to set up, not a government of law,
but of man," because under its vague
and sweeping terms ho man would
know what the law is until the fed
eral judges interpret its meaning.
"The inevitable result of this bill,
if enacted, wduld be to spread a
reign of terror over the United
States, fill the country with spies
and special agents of the Depart
ment of Justice, fill the land with
suspicion, and heresy hunting would
quickly become a national industry.
If the principle of Magna Charta
and the Declaration of Independence
and -the constitution of the United
States are not worth fighting to pre
serve, I have wholly misconceived
what patriotism and love of freedom
means."

FOREST OF DEAD
IS FOUND IN SEA
AT SEVASTOPOL
Reds' Victims Upright in
Sands on Bottom Skip
pers Wary When They
Drop Anchor.
Sevastopol, - Jan. 18. You have
heard of petrified forests, of frozen
forests in the arctic regions, of mys
terious forests of vast area growing
in the mammoth caves in Africa, and
of even more fantastic forests of
fiction.
Yet here in Sevastopol has been
discovered a forest stranger than
any of these. Since the find weird
tales are abroad along the water
front, superstitious sailors cross
themselves when cruising over the
harbors, skippers are wary where
they drop anchor, and, after night
fall, traffic is as dead as that which
divers of Sevastopol came upon
swaying over the floor of the sea
one bright morning.
Seized the City.
Nearly two years before this day
the Russian Black sea fleet was at
anchor in the harbor of Sevastopol.
The men mutinied and turned bol
shevik. They seized the city. Crim
son flags were flown on public build
ings and unfurled on every ship. In
a few minutes the decks were as red
as the flapping banner with the
blood of officers aiu. bourgeois of
the city. By the score they lined
against the rail, where their hands
were bound behind them and their
feet shackled to a projectile or any
handyl pieces of metal to weigh them
down. Then they were thrown
overboard.
Many of the warships were sunk
where they lay along with a con
siderable amount of shipping.
Inspect Sunken Ship.
Eventually the bolshevists lost
control of Sevastopol and a govern
ment was organized under the forces
of General Denikin. After several
months diving equipment in the port
was repaired and an inspection of a
sunken cruiser was ordered pre
liminary to an attempt to raise it.
Three divers Stephanovitch, Dmi
tri, and Vladimir went over the
side. They reached bottom, when,
to the surprise of the crew on the
scow, a signal to ascend was re
ceived almost simultaneously from
each. Two minutes later they w.re
on board making frantic signals to
have their head nijees removed.
Dmitri seemed to have lost control
of himself and it was with great dif
ficulty that the dome was lifted
from his shoulders. But before he
was free the crew knew the reason
for his distress for Stephanovitch
was explaining excitedly.
"Bodies," he shouted. "Hundreds
of them, standing up with their arms
above their heads. It looked like a
forest of dead. It was awful. Give
me a drink."
Became Insane.
Dmitri was babbling senselessly.
The sight had driven him insane.
'. I could not repress a shudder
when Stephanovitch made me visu
alise the victims of bolshevism up
right, with their feet like roots
buried in the shifting sands, with
theif arms like limbs raised through
the shroud of the Black sea to the
light of day and heaven.

London. Jan. 18. "I went abroad
for my health last spring, leaving
my husband safe and well in Kent,"
says a society woman of Kent in
the Weekly Dispatch. "One day in
April I was reading (3,000 miles
from England) when I suddenly
felt he (my husband) was in the
room with me. The impression was
overwhelming that he was vainly
trying to tell me something.
"I was frightened. I wrote, beg
ging my husband to let me know at
once if he were well. My letter
never reached him a cable came
telling me that he had died in a
catastrophe.
"I thought spiritualism nonsense
and I believed in nothing not even
in another world. But I decided
that if by any chance there was a
place where spirits lived and he was
there, I would find it and him. And
I called and called and called on
him -to hear me.
Sketches Flowers.
"The answer came by way of
what is called 'automatic writing.'
I tried and tried for two months
and nothing came. Then one night
came a few scratches: then a word
or two, huge and difficult to de
cipher. Then words, sending his
love to people mentioned by name.
"Since then have come long let
ters, speaking of all our doings and
our thoughts together and of his ex
perience in heaven on the second
plane.
"My husband comes to me three
times a day," she said. "At 8:30 a.
m., 12:30 noon, and 6:30 in the eve
ning. On each occasion he tells me
something and draws flowers.
, "My husband has told me quite a
lot about the other world, where
people seem to live very much as
they do on earth excepting that
everyone is happy and everything
so bright.
Golden Gates and Dogs.
"Heaven, according to my hus
band, is a city of golden gates, as
the Bible tells me. The buildings
are of white marble and shine like
crystal. The people there wear long
white garments, but they may
choose a sort of variation. My
husband's garment is trimmed with
a sort of violet. This is my favor
ite flower. He also wears a gold
circlet, which was given to him as
a reward for his unselfish nature.
He was a most unselfish man on
earth.
"His mother met him when he
passed over, and they now live to
gether, and he has also with him
Iiis two favorite dogs, wnjch he
tells me seem adte young again.
After reaching heaven nr hus
band slept two months.
"On earth he was v.ry fond of
tlcwers and now he tells me he has a
wry beautiful garden filled with
lovely flowers, the like oi wh-ch he
bad not seen before. They do not
have any rain, but these flowers nev
er die, although at tim,-s 'hey lose
the;r radiance to flourish again.
No Sleep and Little Eating.
"There is no such th.ng as day
and nigh. Sometimes the light
seems shaded, but only for a time.
The people do not sleep, r.cithtr do
i! ey eat. except occasionally of a
' ttfe fruit. '
"There is no work as we know it.
what they do is more like pleasure.
On the second plane, where my htis
br.nd lives, he tells mi there are
me wonderful inland lakes. In his
garden he built a lovely fountain,
m which he intitided t keep gold
f sh. But he vvai not allowed to, be
muse things having life have not to
be kept in a -final; space.
"He is allowed to tell me certain
things, but not everything. The peo
ple there particularly dislike being
arked trivial questions, although at
times the have their own practical
jokes. On one occasion, for instance,
niv husband was describing a flower
hich he hai drawn for me. 'It
smells like an inn house,' came the
first message. Then 'inn house' was
changed to 'vir.lcts. He explained
he error bv savin that a soldier
had passed between us and played
a joke.
A Beer Substitute.
' My ht.sh.md lias met many ot the
toldiers who lost their lies in the
war. They have been pivtn some
una ot rsv.ar.1,: hist what :t is ex-
Jdiy i do not know. The ate all

"He has also met many of his old
friends, some of whom are on a dif
ferent plane You see, they are al
lowed to go to different planes with
messages.
"My husband has met our old
coachman, who died two months
after him. On earth the coachman
was very fond of his glass of beer
and was very disappointed when he
was told there was no beer in heaven.
Anyhow, he was given something
which tasted very much like beer,
and he was quite satisfied.
"Those who wish to can smoke.
My husband, who was a very heavy
smoker on earth, does not smoke.
Their tobacco is prepared on the
second plane, but he does not care
much for the preparation and does
not smoke. Neither does the coach
man. New arrivals always express
a desire to smoke, but the craving
soon leaves' them.
Sports and Nice People.
"Once a week large sports are
held for the young people, soldiers
and anyone who likes to join in.
The sports are like the Greek games
running, jumping and everything
to show skill. There is also some
kind of shooting at colored balls
thrown high in the air. My hus
band, who was a splendid shot on
earth, has joined in this sport, but
so far not very successfully, as the
balls shine so, like little suns of dif
ferent colors, that they dazzle him.
"After the sports a concert is
held. No one is obliged to sing un
less he wants to.
"The people, he says, are very
much like they are on earth, only
they look younger and nicer. He
tells me that. though he can float
through anything on earth, he feels
quite solid to himself, but lighter,
better, brighter and much younger.
He looks about 30 10 years younger
than he was on earth."

Denver Parson Aims to Keep
Congregation Awake
And Succeeds.
Denver, Colo., Jan. 18. The S. R.
O. sign was hnng out recently at
Grace M. E. church. Pastor G. S.
Lackland's scheme of "jazzing 'em
to heaven" was responsible. The
big auditorium of the church was
crowded to the doors. Scores of
people were clamoring for admis
sion. The jazzing of a syncopating
negro orchertra packed the church
as it never before had been packed.
Every seat was occupied and all
other available room was filled with
chairs. The negro jazzers were
cramped for space in which to jazz,
so great was the crowd.
"It went over big," Dr. Lackland
declared in discussing his experi
ment of pepping up church music by
using a jazz orchestra that plays
ragtime in a fashion to wake up the
dead.
a Other Pastors Opposed.
"It isn't religion," declared Dean
H. Martyn Tart. "Jazz bancjS are
entirely out of place at a religious
service."
"What next?" exclaimed the Rev.
Henry S. Foster, pastor of the
Church of the Ascension. "Jazz
music does not put people in a re
ligious Irame ot mind, it causes
them to want to dance. I can't see
any relation between jazz and re
ligion. I use it myself in the parish
house for children s dances, but m
church it has no business there."
"They simply ate it up," declared
Dr. Lackland. "There have been
some criticisms, I understand, but
none have come to me direct. The
persons who complained were not at
the open forum meeting. A lot of
those who were there didn't know
until Sunday afternoon what jazz
music really is.
"I have had a lot of requests to
continue it."
Regular Music Soporific.
It is Dr. Lackland's idea that
something must be done to liven up
the church service, The music in
most churches, he insists, tends to
put the congregation to sleep, while
a jazz orchestra, he thinks, would
waken every one up and put the
worshippers in a more receptive
mood for the sermon.
"Jazz music woke up France," de
clares Dr. Lackland. "Why not use
it to wake up the church? The old,
poky church service is so slow peo
ple who come to worship God are
put to sleep. Let's wake them up
with some real music music that
has pep and a punch and a kick and
which will put them in a frame of
mind to appreciate the blessings of
rel;'-'on.
"Ninety per cent of the churches
in the United States are using jazz
music today, but they don't know it
They are using a poor brand. While
we're at it we might as well have
good jazz.
Appeal to the Many.
"Christ was no monk. He min
gled with the common people and
used their customs to improve their
condition. Most everybody likes
jazz music. Certainly the churches
are no better than Christ. Let them
take advantage of and use the jazz
music which appeals to the multi
tudes. .
Anybody who has ever slept
through a church service and the
sleeping percentage is enough to
make any minister of the gospel lie
awake nights trying to improve his
service so it will lead his ccngre
gation to heaven instead of to
dreamlandsknows how sleepy and
dead and pepless the music in the
average church is.
Top High and Mighty.
"The idea of the average church
is to set a high and mighty stan
dard and then try to educate the
people up to it. That's what they
do in music. It's a fine idea, but
it don't work. Choirs sing in Lat
in and Italian and French and other
foreign languages. Perhaps it's just
as well they do, for nobody would
know if most of them sang in Eng
lish. "The use of jazz music in church
probably will be condemned all the
way from the convent to the peni
tentiary, but it will make the church
service more attractive and more
enjoyable, and I say the time has
come for the church to jazz up."
Great Quantities of Gas
Is Found In New Field
McKeesport, Pa., Jan. 18. Gas in
ever-increasing quantities is being
found in the wonderful new field
near here. One of the latest wells
to come in is shooting 30,000,000 cu
bic feet a day and this is not the
largest.
If the development continues
northeastward for any distance this
field may supply heat for industries
of Buffalo, Cleveland, Cincinnati
and other cities for a score or more
of years, according to D. George
H. Ashley, chief of the bureau of
topographic and geological survey of
Pennsylvania.
Excitement throughout the whole
district continues at a high pitch and
derricks are going up as fast as it
is humanly possible to construct
them.
Oxygen Injections May
' Be of benefit to Aviators
Paris, Jan. 18. A discovery which
may prove of great benefit to avia
tors has been made by Dr. Bayeux,
noted French physician and scientist,
whose report has just been present
ed to the academy.
Dr. Bayeux remained 11 days on
the summit of Mont Blanc. To
guard against illness, which ge-icr-ally
attacks persons remairiri at
such high altitudes, he submitted to
injections of oxen under the skin
and felt absolutely no ill effects.
London, Jan. 18. Mrs. Mabel
Walen of Willesden Green, London,
may not be the only woman pine
smoker in England, but up. to the
present time she has the distinction
of being the first to publicly boast of
it and give her reasons for doing so.
Tobacconists say that pipe smoking
among women is on the increase,
even more so than the cigar habit.
Mrs. Walen takes exceptional pleas
ure in her briars and her calabashes.
"I average about four pipes in a
day and a cigar in the evening with
my husband over a game of chess,"
she says.
Smoked Cigars Many Years.
"I have smoked pipes and cigars
for many years. I don't care about
cigarets. "I have colored several
calabashes and possess two pipes by
a well known maker, my last a
straight-cut a beauty I All my
friends know I smoke, and as I have
eight brothers-in-law I don't come
off badly for cigars. If it came to a
choice between 'no pudding' or 'no
pipe,' it would certainly be 'no pud-
di"S-' .
"My husband gave me for Christ
mas, not presents of chocolates and
other dainties, but a box of cigars
and a nice briar. It is impossible, I
think, to beat the cool, sweet fra
grance of a pipe, and my present fa
vorite is a fine curved briar. I
smoke the ordinary medium mix
tures, and with a pipe in my mouth
find I can do my household work
much better."
First Cigar at 14.
Mrs. Walen, who is a woman of
splendid physique, says smoking
never affects her health. She
smoked Iter first cigar when 14 a
half finished cigar of her father's.
"It had no ill effect upon me, and I
have been smoking ever since. I do
not limit myself, and I smoke most
of the dav.
The first time Mrs. Walen lit a
cigar in a London restaurant she
says she was asked to leave. She
was contentedly puffing a calabash
when the photographers and report
ers called on her.
Some French women are making
a big attempt to show the men that
they refused any longer to be con
sidered of the weak sex. They tried
this in the war, when they proved
they could do a man's work. In
peace time they are trying to prove
they can also equal a man in his
pleasure.
Likes Her Pipe.
They have taken up all sorts of
athletics. Many French women
smoke as many cigarets a day as
any man. One recently showed she
was equally able to smoke a cigar
without any ill effect. Now one has
come forward ,to prove - she can
smoke a pipe, and smoke it well, j
She made no attempt to conceal the j
fact, for she chose a fashionable
Parisian restaurant to eive the dis
play. Men looked at her susprised,
but they did not dare to smile.

German and Polish Forces
Clash, Former Losing Out
Berlin, Jan. 18. An official tele
gram received from Danzig reports
a collision between German troops
and Poles near Argenau (province
of Posen) in which the greater part
of the German occupation force fell
into the hands of the police.
Paris, Jan, 18. Special dancing
stockings are being manufactured
since the tango and fox trot craze
has hit the French capital. These
new stockings and sox, too cost
150 francs a pair, but are guaran
teed to last two weeks. They are
nothing more than the ordinary
type of American stockings, with
double soles and reinforced heels
and toes.
Ordinarily, chic Frenchwomen
have always refused to wear these
American stockings with the double
feet. Now, with the new slippers
heinz worn for evening wear, with
the vamp cut down to the toes in
front, and with the sides cut away
until they are little more than high
heeled sandals, they assert the rein
forced soles, look ugly and the dou
bled heels as well.
Lasted a Day.
Lack of stockings in the shops,
however, has made even wealthy
women who are not worried by ex
penses adopt the new dancing stock
ings. Formerly, they could make
an ordinary pair of gauzy hose last
them a day that is from 4 or 5
in the afternoon; when they stepped
forth for tea, until after the theater,
at midnight, when they returned
home.
These filmy stockings, which were
45 and 50 francs a pair a month ago,
are 60 and 7a cents a pair today.
But they are too fine and sheer to
stand the pace of a modern tango
fiend. Dancing from 5 to 7 in the
afternoon, she dines in a restaurant
that specializes more in the jazz
band that its food, dancing between
courses, and then, instead of going
to the theater after dinner, goes
along to a "palace of dance" as
they call the places here and dances
until 11:30.
After the official closing as likely
as not she goes to some "under cov
er joint" in Paris or the suburbs,
and continues dancing until day
break. Until the new special dancing
stockings were adopted, fashionable
women used to .carry an extra pair
of hose in their handbags which
they would change during the eve
ning, when one of their filmy stock
ings became torn or "ran."

STOLEN
Packard Twin Six
$150 Reward
The following' twin cylinder Packard
car was stolen from Dea Moines, Iowa,
Sunday night, January 11th. The de
scription is aa follows:
1918 Packard. Model No. 825, seven
passenger touring ear, 12 cylinder.
Motor Mo. 151903, Chassis No. 151903,
Body No. 2?9.
Painted Packard blue (dark bra with
yellow wheels).
License No. 89657 (This is the 1919
number.)
IDENTIFICATION MARKS
There is register in the floor in
front of the rear seat.
The door in the foot board next to
the driver's aeat was removed and re
placed with a home-made wire screen
of heavy wire with a wooden frame,
so the heat could come ip from the
engine.- This is on of the best identi
fications we have as it would be diffi
cult to get a door like the original
from the Packard people for some time.
The left rear fender was damaged at
the top edge some time ago, but was
straightened up and daubed with some
plain black paint This could not be
hidden unless a new fender was used
and then, of course, the paint would
be much brighter than the rest of the
car, as it still has its original paint,
or if it wer painted the fender would
be conspicuous against the old paint
on the body. Wire

"Since Tanlac has overcome mj
troubles I have gained twenty
pounds in weight and am in bettei
general health than for years," was.
the statement made a few days ago
by H. W. Boring, a well-known
farmer living at Overland Park,
Kansas.
"During the two years I suffered
I tried everything I knew of to get
relief, but nothing reached mv ense,
until I got hold of Tanlac." Mr.
Boring continued. "I had a poor,
appetite and my digestion was so
bad that I could hardly retain a
thing I ate. I had pains across thf
small of my back so bad that at.
times I could not do my work. My
nerves were terribly unstrung and

little unexpected noise. I could
never sleep good at night and 1
became so weak and run-down that
I lost weight rapidly. I was also
troubled a great deal with catarrh,
and in the mornings I had to spend
a half hour or more clearing up
my head.
"Tanlac was certainly a blessint
to me and from the way it went
after my troubles it seems it wat
made specially for me. My diges
tion now is perfect and it makes
no difference what I eat I am never
troubled afterwards. The pains
across my back have disappeared
entirely and I never miss a dav
from work now. The .catarrh has
left me and my head is perfectly
clear, I am no longer nervous and
every night I sleep sound. I hav
regained my lost weight and I am
feeling stronger than I have in
years. I am always going to keep
Tanlac in my house so it will be
handy at all times."
