TERSE HAtfTE TRIBUNE,

WOMEN SHRIRK FROMMODfSn

Bear Grievous Ailments Rather Than Make Conditions Known.

The subjects of complaints peculiar to women is a delicate one, but it is plain duty to let these sufferers know that most of the derangements from^which they suffer are due principally to nervous debility.

It is not uncommon to hear a woman say: "I am all run down, so nervous and weak." She is suffering from the modern malady—nervousness. Many suffering women, influenced by shrinking modesty, have borne this grevious condition without complaint rather than made a personal appeal.

Such women, and they are a legion in every community, suffer from headaches, backaches, loss of appetite, and sleeplessness. Their spirits are not the normally happy ones of their more fortunate sisters. Often, too, there are spells of nausea, weakness or even fainting that make them .feel insecure and to wonder when they will be embarrassed or even in danger, because of their condition.

Medical authorities say that the nerves regulate and govern absolutely every process of the body. Sever the nerves leading to the eye and not only would you be unable to move the eye but your sight would be gone forever. Your nerves regulate the beating of your heart, one set malting it beat and another keeping it from racing too fast.

To get the seat of most troubles the nerves must be strengthened. Nearly all functional weaknesses and disorders can be directly traced ito weak nerves and depleted vitality.

Tanlac, the itjeal reconstructive tonic, was designed to strengthen the nervous system. It has proven invaluable to both men and women in cases of stomach, liver, and kidney troubles and catarrhal affections of the mucous membrances. Tanlac builds up the tissues, promotes digestion, and proper assimilation of food, vitalizes the blood and brings back health and color to the cheeks and real sparkle to the eyes.

Tanlac is being especially introduced In Terre Haute at" Buntin Drug Co., Sixth and Wabash avenue, where its merits are fully'explained by the Tanlac Man.

Tanlac may be obtained in the following nearby cities: Seelyville, Mont E. Taber Brazil, Mendenhall & Artman Carbon, J. H. Throsp Atherton, John Buckley Cory, E. A.

referred to towns in Durango, and especially in Durango City, where the Americans still living there have been repeatedly warned by United States Consul Coen to leave. As far as can be learned here there are not more than a dozen Americans still in Durango City, the majority of whom have married into Mexican families, and for that reason have so far considered themselves safe.

The present trouble seems to be due in part to the persistent antiAmerican campaign which has been carried on by the Mexican papers in the state capital. This campaign has Increased in violence since the clash at Parral between United States soldiers and Carranza troops.

The uncertainty over the whole Mexican situation is believed here to be greatly Increasing the 'dangers of serious friction, but there is a general belief that tho coming conference between General Hugh L. Scott and General Obregon will have a quieting effect.

Pershing's Command Now Equipped for Any Emergency. COLUMBUS, N. M„ April 27.—Whatever the future developments in the Mexican situation may be, it is certain that General J. J. Pershing's expeditionary command will be well prepared so far as food and equipment are concerned. During the lull in operations nine motor truck companies have been kept busy carrying supplies to the army in Mexico, until now, it was stated today, every detachment of the command is rationed aft least a month ahead and is prepared with ample armament and clothing for any emergency.

Truckmen arriving here today told of being ambushed by a roving band of marauders of about fifteen, attached to no Mexican faction, in a canyon near Satevo several days ago. The truckmen and their soldier guard took a position behind the steel wheels of the cars and returned the fire, routing the Mexicans and capturing two of their number, according to the story.
