EX-DRIVER OF HACK MAY BE CHIEF Boom Curtis of Kansas, Chief of Indians, for / - President. ;"i BY LEO R. SACK WASHINGTON, Nov. I.—ls, by chance, the-1928 Republican national convention should find itself deadlocked in the selection of a presidential nominee and go to the United States Senate for a candidate, as it did in 1920, and pick Senator Charles Curtis of Kansas, the publicity men, the Sunday feature writers and the campaign orators will have the time of their lives. In the Senate Curtis now is one of its most solemn _ members. He takes his duties seriously. He says little, not a word more than is necessary. He is a conservative of the old school, a confidant of Smoot, a friend of Coolidge and a social companion of the Longworths and that group of Washington officialdom that has money, and family background. Mother Was Half Indian But Curtis wasn’t always so, and it is his early life which would make him the most picturesque candidate in recent years.

For two years he rode on all of the tracks throughout the West. But as Charley grew older his parents concluded he was getting nowhere. He had a common school education "and it was decided he should study law in the office of Judge A. J. Case in Topeka. Drives Hack; Studies Law Charley deserted the track, but he had to live while going to school. The young law student discovered a broken down hack in the livery stable. It was accumulating rust and dirt—no dividends. Curtis obtained two old mares and proposed to the livery man that they go in partnership, the latter to furnish the hack and Curtis the horses. Thereafter night after night Curtis

Tanlac has a wonderful record as a relief from digestive troubles of every kind, even those of many years’ standing. Read what Mr. John F. Meighen, of <519 Highland Are., Sidney, Ohio, says: “For three years I had severe stomach pains caused by gas, and suffered greatly from loss of sleep. Before finishing the first bottle I noted considerable relief. Now I am in good health and hare no stomach trouble whatever.’’ If you suffer from gas, pains In the stomach or bowels, dizziness, nausea, constipation or torpid liver: if you have no appetite, can’t sleep and are nervous and all run down, it’s a sign you need Tanlac.
