COMPTROLLER SCORES BANK CREDIT PLAN Declares Failures of 1919 Due to Laxity. SITUATION GOOD WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—The practice of certain hanks in pyramiding credits, by a process of rediscounting their own paper with other banks and thereby endangering their safety and the interests of their depositors, was scored today by Comptroller of the Currency, D. R. Crissinger, in his annual report to Congress. Congress was asked by the Comptroller to amend the banking laws and imposed drastic limitations on banks that fewer failures from this cause will result and that greater banking safety will be insured. Crissinger said that if Congress had restricted the rediscounting privilege of banks, the country would not have witnessed thirty-four bank failures last year. While the Comptroller finds the banking situation sound and the banks showing the best records in the Nation's history, he strongly recommends additional safeguards as a means of reaching the so-called non-conservative banking element. SYSTEM NOT ALTOGETHER BAD. Rediscounting paper of banks, when properly limited and restricted, constitutes a practicable means of distributing credit, Comptroller Crissinger said. It also makes possible, he said, the extension of credits to less fortunate communities, especially in times of heavy seasonal demand. But the reckless bankers, who indulge in orgies of in ation at the risk of their own safety and that of their patrons, must be curbed by amendments to the existing statutes, sufficiently rigid as to make this kind of banking impossible, the Comptroller said.

Knudsen, president, declared today in discussing a receivership suit filed against the company. He lists the assets of the company at nearly $90,000 and the total amount of unpaid bills and loans at $1,330. Mr. Knudsen asserted the receivership was asked by a former employe and small stockholder with which the management had had a disagreement. Marriage Licenses John Brooks, Ft.

Geese Hunters Are Discovered Frozen LAS ANIMAS, Colo., Jan. 9.—The bodies of Albert McGilvray and Robert Orr, both of this city, were recovered today from Blue Lake, north of here. It is believed the men became exhausted while hunting geese and froze to death on a raft. Orr's body was on the raft but McGilvray had fallen into the icy waters. Orr formerly lived in Pittsburgh, Pa., where his father is controller of the Pennsylvania railroad system. SHANK ASKS MORE SPEED IN PROGRAM (Continued From Page One.) street commissioner's department to the city civil engineering department. Mr. Shank submitted to the board a long list of street, sidewalk and alley improvements in the far northern end of the city which he decided were needed, after spending most of Sunday inspecting the section. The list included the following streets for permanent improvement: Northern avenue from Boulevard Place to one block west; Forty-First street from Capitol avenue to Boulevard Place; West Fortieth street from Boulevard Place to Capitol avenue; Forty-Second street from Capitol avenue west; FortyThird street from Illinois street west; Capitol avenue from Forty-Third street north ; Maple Place from Illinoi sstreet to Capitol avenue; Kenwood avenue from Fortieth street to first alley north; FortyThird street from Meridian street to Central avenue; Winthrop avenue from Forty-Sixth to Forty-Eighth street; Central avenue from Fifty-Second street to the north city limits; Fifty-Second street from Winthrop avenue to Meridian street; Forty-Fourth street from Central avenue to Washington Boulevard; Watson Road from Guilford to Central avenue; Park avenue from Thirty-Fourth street to Fairfield avenue; Puryear street from Alabama to Delaware street. PLANS RATHER COMPREHENSIVE. The mayor also recommended resurfacing Meridian street from the Belt to the south city limits, a number of streets. for grading, graveling and sidewalks as well as twenty-four alleys re desired permanently improved. Mr. Shank also recommended to the board, upon advice of John L. Elliott, city civil engineer, that the five-year-old order to the Indianapolis Street Railway Company for the extension of the North Illinois street car line from Thirty-Ninth to Forty-Sixth streets be rescinded and the company ordered to reduce the grade of its tracks in Pennsylvania street from Forty-Third to Forty-Sixth streets to the street level and pave between the tracks. The board took both under advisement with the expectation of having a conference with traction officials. The plan for the dispensation of unemployment relief, based upon the council's transfer of funds as requested in the resolution adopted by the board, calls for the hiring of men for work on sewers and unimproved streets at not more than $2 a day or 25 cents per hour. ONLY NEEDY TO BE EMPLOYED. In order that only citizens of Indianapolis in dire need of money with which to support their families may be aided, a committee will be named to establish headquarters either at the city hall or the office of the State and city free employment bureau to interview applicants. This committee tentatively is composed of Eugene Foster, secretary of the Charity Organization Society; the Rev. C. H. Winders, secretary of the Indianapolis Church Federation; Raymond C. Jenkins, secretary of the State employment bureau; J. Frank Cantwell, chairman of the Marion County council, American Legion: John E. King, councilman; William E Evans, Center township trustee, and Fred Rakmann of the municipal research bureau of the Chamber of Commerce. They are to meet Tuesday afternoon. While the men are being hired the city councilmen, under the direction of Mr. King, are to investigate districts assigned to them and report the streets and sewers most in need of attention. Purchase of the site for the city hall annex has been under discussion for several months. It was proposed by the Jewett administration that the present police headquarters at Alabama and Pearl streets be sold and the proceeds applied on the new building. The old structure can be sold for around $175,000, it was estimated. Heirs of stoughton A. Fletcher. Sr., own the quarter of a block proposed to be purchased. The resolution to transfer the duty of keeping up improved streets is the result of a decision reached by the mayor, Mr. Elliott and Street Commissioner Martin J. Hyland that the engineering department is better qualified to handle the work than the street commissioner's department. The engineering department supervises the construction of paved streets and has all the records thereof, as well as highly trained experts in its employ, it was said. When City Purchasing Agent Jesse E. Miller reported the city has been paying the gas bills for firemen who cook their own meals in engine houses and asked what he should do, the board instructed him to notify Fire Chief John J. O'Brien firemen must pay for their own fuel after Jan. 15. Mr. Shank said the street railway company has proposed he and any committee he cares to name take one car to operate in Washington street from Irvington to Mount Jackson and investigate the need for a crosstown line. He said he intends to accept the offer. ‘I DIDN’T KNOW,’ NEWBERRY SAYS
(Continued From Page One.) paign manager, telling how King, a former political opponent, visited him in New York. King told him he thought the campaign would cost .$50,000, Newberry said. He saw King only half a dozen times during the campaign and always in New York . He was kept informed of what was going on, in the way of an intensive publicity campaign, but had no idea as to its cost or where the money was coming from to pay for it. he repeated. It is gratifying to him. Newberry said, that at no time during the various legal and legislative investigation of his campaign has suggestion of moral turpitude or bribery corruption attached to his campaign managers. QUESTION OF FINDS NEVER BROUGHT Fl*. “Nor was there any evidence, so far as I have been able to learn,” he said, “that a single dollar was spent dishonestly for corruption or bribery.” Newberry said the only money he gave in any way was $1,500 to the Republican State committee for the general campaign. The question of campaign funds “was never called to my attention by any one connected with me or the campaign committee,” he stated. "I want to make this point just as strong as I am able to and so because it had been hinted that money which was contributed without my knowledge or consent by relatives and friends of mine was subsequently in some way, directly or indirectly repaid by me or was to be repaid by me. “There is not even a shadow of truth or the slightest foundation for any such statement.” To Cure a Cold in One Day.

GRIFFITH NEW PRESIDENT OF ERIN REPUBLIC Founder of Sinn Fein to Head Government of South Ireland. DAIL SPURNS VALERA DUBLIN, Jan. 9.—Arthur Griffith, founder of the Sinn Fein, this afternoon formed a government for Southern Ireland, he himself taking the office of president. Griffith undertook the task of the creation of the new government after De Valera had resigned as “president of the Irish republic," and Dail Eireann had voted down a resolution to re-elect De Valera. The resignation of De Valera carried with it the resignation of the Dail cabinet. (Note: While De Valera claimed the title of president of the Irish republic, it is likely Griffith will be known as president of the Irish free state). Michael Collins, commander of the Irish republican army and minister of finance in the Sinn Fein cabinet, announced in the Dail this afternoon all subscribers to the republic’s loan would be paid to the last penny.” DUBLIN. Jan. 9 A motion to re-elect Eamonn De Valera president of the Irish Republic, failed in Dail Eireann this afternoon. The vote was sixty against the motion and fifty-eight in favor of it. The opposition won by a majority of two votes. Following his resignation this morning De Valera stood for election on a Republican platform. He was nominated by Mrs. Clarke. The Dail refused to accept its former chieftain by the narrow majority of two votes. Despite his resignation, De Valera indicated he would attempt to continue the exercise of power. He intimated that he would again run for president and in the meantime, he would continue the head of the republican forces and the organization that has been collecting funds for support of the republican movements. Adherents of the Collins-Griffith faction declared they could put a candidate in the field who could defeat De Valera if they were minded to do so. As soon as De Valera had reaffirmed his resignation, a deputy proposed his re-election as president. Deputy O'Malley opposed. Michael Collins gained the floor and warned the Dali that if it “continued in the present fashion it would become the laughing stock of the world.” Collins announced that a committee soon would meet a British committee to discuss administration affairs. De Valera was shaken by emotion and his resignation speech was delivered in a broken, halting voice. Collins suggested that committees be appointed by the two factions to attempt to arrange a compromise. “None of us wants to see Mr. De Vale-a resign,” said Collins. However, De Valera rejected the offer. Arthur Griffith, founder of the Sinn Fein, addressed the House, saying the ratification vote Saturday night represented the will of the Irish people. “Nothing is going to prevent the intentions covered by that vote from being carried out." said Griffith.
WOMEN SEEK EQUAL STATUS IN POLITICS (Continued From Page One.) provided in the primary and general election laws and also as provided by the rules for that party’s organization. “That in the event a man be elected precinct committeeman as provided in the primary law, he shall appoint before the Saturday following such primary election, a woman vice committeeman for the precinct which he has been elected to represent. In the event a woman be elected precinct committeeman, as above : indicated, she shall appoint a man vice committeeman within said time. "That at the meeting of the county chairmen to be held for the purpose of electing a district chairman, as provided in the primary law, a vice chairman shall also be elected. In the event a man be elected district chairman, a woman shall be elected vice chairman, or vice versa. “That at the meeting of the district chairmen, to be held for the purpose of electing a chairman of the Democratic State central committee as provided in the primary law, vice chairmen shall also be elected, a woman being elected first vice chairman of said committee. “That on all other committees and subcommittees, not herein mentioned, men and women shall have equal representation.” FIVE-MINUTE SPEECHES GIVEN. Following the formal speeches a number of five-minute talks were made on "Women as a Factor in Municipal elections," the speakers including Mrs. James Riggs of Sullivan; Mrs. Fred Lauenstein of Evansville, Mrs. Grace Jetson Bodenmlller of Indianapolis, Mrs. J. I. Gwinn of Rensselaer, .Mrs. Lillie M. Kurfess of New Albany and Mrs. Chester Evans of Bloomington. More than two hundred Democratic women attended the luncheon, coming from over the State and Indianapolis and the liveliest enthusiasm was shown concerning the resolution when read by Mrs. Adelbert P. Flynn, Eleventh District chairman, of Logansport. Mrs. Flynn was introduced by Mrs. McCulloch with a few words stressing the fact that the women of the Democratic party now wish to stand on their own feet, that in the past campaign the men had shown the women favors, but that, the time is now here when woman should depend on her own ability without regard to the fact that she is a woman. Mrs. Ellingham in her talk concerning the Jefferson Club of Ft. Wayne, deplored the fact that now days folk do not gather together at neighbors' fireplaces and discuss the problems of the day in the old-fashioned personal way. FT. WAYNE JEFFERSON CLUB CONTACT FACTOR. “Now we have come to the day," she said, “when there is a great need of that direct and neighborly contact of people. In Ft. Wayne we have achieved such a relationship by means of the Jefferson Club, which is a social organization built, however, for the promotion of Democratic principles. In our organization there are folk of all classes; any one is eligible and the consequence is that we line up people, men and women, as leaders in political undertakings in various communities.” Mrs. Ralston elogized Andrew Jackson, giving a brief biographical sketch of his life and stressing the principles that he instilled so many years ago into his party. NEWSPAPER MOST INFLUENTIAL MEDIUM. The newspaper as the most influential medium for Statewide political publicity was featured by Mrs. May, in her talk. “People in masses are educated to a great extent by the newspapers,” she declared. Andrew Jackson favored the newspaper as an educational means and the Democratic party should follow- his idea for spreading party propaganda. Dodgers and pamphlets may be very well, but for a big, far-reaching propaganda spreader there is nothing like the newspaper.” Mrs. Clarke pointed out the discrepencies between the campaign pledges and the activities of the Republican party and Mrs. McMullen spoke of the part women are to have in the future activity of the Democratic party. POLICE OFFICIAL DIES. OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 9.—Andrew Pattule, acting chief of police of Omaha. died here today of heart disease.
INDIANA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, JANUARY 9, 1922.
Overland Salesmen Attend Conference Willys-Overland salesman for the In-dlana-Kentueky territory were called in for a meeting held Saturday with the new executives of the Overland factory branch in Indianapolis. The local branch was established a few weeks ago and formerly was the Gibson Company. It is in charge of G. V. Orr, branch manager, with E. S. Addison as wholesale manager and C. S. McKee in charge of retail sales. The men attended a luncheon at the Spink Arms Hotel, which was followed by a business session. Addresses were made by executives, including R. L. Butler, who has supervision of the branches. ESTIMATES 20 PER CENT WILL OUST PHONES (Continued From Page One.) cases the persons protesting objected that the American Telephone and Telegraph Company is paying 9 per cent dividends w-hile the Indiana Bell Telephone Company, a subsidiary, contends it is losing money. “Were there threats to remove telephones?” Commissioner Van Auken asked after Mr. Wilde had testified as to the number of complaints. “Vos,” Mr. Wilde replied, “some of the persons who protested stated plainly that if the increase is granted telephones will b<i taken out and committees representing organizations told me in each case that either all or a part of their membership expected to have their telephones removed.” Commissioner Van Auken. asked Mr. Wilde to estimate the number or telephones that would be taken out. Mr. Wilde replied that by greatly discounting the complaints of consumers he had arrived at a conservative estimate of 20 per cent. He said he did not take into account persons who threatened to have their telephones removed but who clearly required telephone service. FEW COMPLAINTS OF SERVICE. In answer jo questions of ihe attorneys for the telephone company, Mr. Wilde said that he had received only a few complaints of service nnd that the company always had shown its willingness to adjust them. Mr. Wilde was asked If the protests against lnerensed rates were not made without adequate knowledge of conditions and Mr. W ilde said he believed they were. Commissioner Van Auken asked if telephones had been removed in other cities in which rate increases had been granted. Mr Wilde replied in the affirmative. He stated later that in Steuben County an increase in telephone rates had resulted in 50 per cent of the telephones being ordered removed. In reply to questions from Taylor E. Oroninper. corporation counsel for the city of Indianapolis, Mr. Wilde said that many of the persons who made complaints said they would be financially inable to pay for the service and that a few had told him they did not believe the service was worth what the company proposes to charge. B G. Halstead, engineer of the telephone company, continued his testimony 1n behalf of the company, presenting figures as to the cost of instruments and other technical details. ADOPT NEW RULE FOR POSTOFFICE Responsibilities Added to Local Heads.
Ab r result of the decentralization policy adopted by thte Postoffice Depart ment at Washington a great amount of additional responsibility will fall upon officials of the local postofflce. Rot ert E. Springsteen, postmaster, said today. In tho past second, third and fourth-class offices have dealt directly with the department at Washington, but hereafter they will send all Inquiries and transact their business through tho local office. This will, mean that the Indianapolis office in the future must take care of elghty-two second-class, 272 third-class and 712 fourth-class offices throughout the State. Assistant Postmaster Charles W. Ityfield will have charge of the work In which he will be assisted by <>. W. Faulkner, superintendent of malls. Chamber Committee to Discuss Tariff The State and national legislation committee of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce will meet tomorrow noon at the Chamber of Commerce for the purpose of Uiscussive referendum No. 37, submitted to the local organization by tho national chamber on the report of the committee o nfariff principles.

NATIONS WILL PUT NO LIMIT ON AIRCRAFT Five Big Powers Decide Conference Must Keep Hands Off. COMMERCIAL USE RULES BY GEORGE R. HOLMES. WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—The five great powers of the Washington conference definitely decided today not to attempt any limitation on aircraft. The report of the subcommittee, recommending that nothing be done at this conference because the development of military and naval craft was so closely linked with the development of commercial aviation, was adopted by the powers. EXPERTS TO STUDY AVIATION PROBLEM. The experts also had recommended that this conference not attempt to deal with restrictions governing the use of military and naval aircraft, but this was in part disregarded and a commission of technical and legal experts was appointed to study the question. No date for the experts to submit their findings was set, however, and owing to the close approach of tlie end of the conference, it vis predicted that little if anything in the way of adopting “humanizing” rules will be accomplished in Washington. NAVAL TREATY LEAVES HANDS OF EXPERTS. The tive-powered L.uval treuty, embodying all the limitation decisions which have been made here, finally left the hands of the drafting experts today, and copies were furnished to the various delegations for study and perusal. The completed draft will be taken up tomorrow, when the full committee meets again, and it is expected that a number of changes will lie suggested by the different powers. It was predicted that at least two days will lie required for discussion of the treaty before a plenary session can be called to publish it officially to the world. HOPE PRESENT WEEK I .AST OF PARLEY. The armament conference embarked on what many of the delegates believe and hope will be the last week of the long parley. Unless unforoseeen contingencies arise to delay matters the majority of the statesmen consider that by the end of the week all of the major problems of the conference will either have been settled or will be In such shape as to permit their departure from Washington, leaving the “mopping up" to be doue by a council of ambassadors. The five-powered naval treaty, n possible eight or nine-powered treaty affecting China, and a declaration concerning Siberia are the three outstanding matters to bo accomplished as the conference swings into its third mouth. NAVAL TREATY 18 COMPLETED. The naval treaty is drawn and virtually ready for presentation to the powers. The naval experts worked most of Sunday to whip it into shape and it may be presented at today's session. The immediate business before the full committee when it met in the Pan American building was the experts’ recommendations ngalnst the conference adopting any restrictive measures ngalnst the development or operation of aircraft. This report probably will be accepted, with hut minor exceptions. Having adopted “humanizing” restrictions on submarines and gas, some of the delegates feel similar action should be taken with regard to aircraft. Consideration of the naval treaty likely will consume several days, and It may It long drawn out, defeat the hopes
of the chief conference figures of wlnJlng UP this week. ASK DEFINITION OF MERC HANT SHIP. Both France and Italy, with an eye to Great Britain's vast merchant fleet and the possibility of the quick conversion of merchant vessels Into war craft, want the naval treaty to detine what constitutes a merchant ship. Official spokesmen for the British delegation have announced that never again, while submarines are permitted to roam the seas, will Britain send her merchantmen to sea unarmed. An armed merchant vessel constitutes an auxiliary naval vessel, according to the opinions held by the experts of other countries. It . likely this issue will provide some spirited debate when the conference gets down to considering tho treaty section by section. Will Auction Watch to Aid Armenians A beautiful goal watch, an official railroad timekeeper. Is offered to the highest bidder by the Near Sast Relief to obtain funds to help feed Armenian orphans. A. A Aotnvv, 1515 Marion avenue, Marion, sent the watch to State headquarters. 403 City Trust building, with instructions to sell It and “feed the hungry. The wateh Is on exhibition in the show window of a jeweler at 28 Monument place, who has volunteered to convert It Into cash “I can get along with a cheaper watch,” Mr. Votam wrote. “With babies starving to death and clamoring to get into our orphanages in the Bible lands, and someone needing a good watch, we ought to be able to dispose of it, - ' said Thomas C. Day, treasurer of Near East Relief. SMALL PAROLE UP. The State board of pardons, in session today, heard tho case of Charles Small, who was convicted in June, 1920, on a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses. Small was sentenced to the State prison for a term of from one to 7 years. Ho is seeking a parole.
Armour Must Drop 1 Rail Directorship WASHINGTON, Jau. 9.—Ogden Armour, multi-millionaire Chicago packer, was denied permission by the Interstate Commerce Commission today to hold the position of director in both the Illinois Central and the Chicago, Milwaukee & St, Paul railroads. Armour will be allowed to retain his directorship in either road he chooses, but not in both of them. COURT ORDERS TERRE HAUTE PLACE CLOSED Judge Anderson Says. Home of ‘White Mule’ Must Be Abandoned. An injunction ordering a building at Terre Haute, owned by George Azar, .and operated as a soft drink establishment by Charles M. Batten, to lie closed for a period of one year, was issued by Judge Albert B. Anderson in Federal Court today. The action was taken under a provision of the Volstead act, and will mean that for a year the buiiding will be locked up and cannot be occupied for any purpose. Police officials of Terre Haute, Federal prohibition agents and other witnesses testified “white mule" had been sold at the place almost openly, and one witness branded it as “the toughest place In Terre Haute.” The trial of the case marked the final appearance of Frederick Van Nuys, who will retire as district attorney as soon as the commission of Homer Elliott arrives. Finish Buildings for Sunnyside County Auditor Leo IC. Fesler said today thet the portable houses which have been under construction for several months at Sunnyside for the care of tubercular ex-service men, will be ready for occupancy by the first of net t week. “Finishing touches are being put on the two buildings and 1 am hopeful that the buildings will be ready for use next week,” Mr. Fesler f.tated. The heat has been connected and the final plumbing work is being done, he said.
Public Is Amazed at Continued Enormous Demand for Tanlac
People All Over America Want to Know Vliat Is Behind the Phenomenal Success of This Preparation That Makes It the World's Greatest Tonic. Day after day the quesiion Is being asked all over ‘.he United States and Canada: What is the reason for the phenomenal success of Tanlac? Why do we hear so much about it? and. Why do Tanlac sales keep increasing every year, when other medicines seem to have a short-lived popularity and are then forgotten? The answer is simple enough. The test of time has proven to people ail over the American continent that Tanlac always produces most gratifying results and that the remarkable relief It brings seems to be more permanent than over before believed possible. Tens of thousands of persons, everywhere, who took it when it was first Introduced six years ago, report that they are still enjoying excellent health and millions of American homes are now using Tanlac ns the family medicine after first trying it out thoroughly and proclaim it the World’s Greatest Tonic. Thousands of men nnd women of all ages and in all walks of life afflicted with stomach, liver and kidney disorders, some of them of long standing, as well as thousands of weak, thin, nervous men and women apparently, on the verge of collapse have testified putdioly that they have been fully restored to their normal health, strength and weight by its use. Still others, who seemed fairly well, yet who suffered with Indigestion, headaches, shortness of breath, dizzy spells, sour gassy stomach, coated tongue, foulness of breath, constipation, lmd complexion, loss of appetite, sleeplessness at night and terrt-

SUPREME COURT SETS MARCH 6 FORPONZI CASE North Dakota Rail Stock Tax Law Declared Invalid. WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—The Supreme Court of the United States today set for argument March 6 the appealed ease of Charles Ponzl, the Boston get-rich-quick promoter, to prevent his removal from Federal charge and prison to be placed in Massachusetts State courts on trial for conspiracy and fraud. The court held invalid the North Dakota State capital stock tax as applied to railroads doing business in the State. The law provided that railroad companies should be taxed on the value of the entire capital stock measured by the value of the railroad property in the State. The Southern Pacific Railroad merger, or consolidation cases, was ordered reargued before the court of the United States. The court restored the case to the docket and set argument for March 13 next. This suit was brought by the Government to force dissolution of the combination formed by lease and stock purchase by the Southern Pacific and Central Pacific railroad ompanles. The Government lost Its case In the lower courts. Argument on the constitutionality of the woman suffrage amendment was postponed until Jan. 20, on request of Attorney General Daugherty. The amendment was attacked on the ground that it violates the constitution In that it was not properly ratified, and because it nullifies “male’ votes by “dilution” and breaks down the right of the people to decide how their elections of Senators shall be made.

bly dejected, depressed feelings, state that they have been entirely relieved or these distressing symptoms and restored to health and happiness by taking Tanlac. Tanlac has never been advertised as a cure-all or that It would perform un-heard-of wonders. The advertising has been clean, straightforward and conservative. Actual facts and figures have been stated and stated In a true, busi-ness-like way that has commanded tho confidence of all in the conservative claims set forth. The enoromus demand for Tanlac is due to merit alone, for no amount of advertising would continue to sell any article that does not possess real merit. Unless full value underlays tho article advertised, the advertising will ultimately fall of its own weight. “Yon can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can’t fool all or the people all of the time.” Tanlac has been well advertised. It is true, but such .i large and rapidly growing demand could not be brought nbout by advertising alone. It Is what the people themselves say that counts. One bottle of Tan’sc Is sold In a neighborhood through advertising, but ten more are sold In that same community as a result of the sals of that first bottle and that Is why Tanlac has succeeded. People are always willing to talk about their ailments, but they are more than glad to tell others of the medicine that helped them. It is something they could not keep to themselves If they tried, for the impulse to sympathize with your fellowman and want to help him Is one of the strongest, as well as one or the biggest, things in human nature. That is the reason why the people of every section of the United States nnd Canada, have become to speak or Tanlac as the World's Greatest Tonic. And that is the reason why the demand for this remarkable medicine has grown to such proportions that it Is almost impossible to keep dealers supplied. Tanlac is sold in Indianapolis by Hooks Dependable Drug Stores and leading druggists everywhere.—Adv.
