'l am now able to at throe square meals a day for the first time in two years," was the emphatic statement made recently hy Joseph A. York, well-known business man and highly respected citizen of Portland. Maine. 'I mil now sixty-nine years of ne, and In nil my life I have never run across a medicine that I consider in a class with Tnnlac. I have Just finished my fourth hottle and this m-dl-cine lias benefited trie even beyond my greatest hopes. Pesldes gaining sixteen pounds In weight, I have been built up und strengthened until I feci nil of twenty yeirs younger. "For the past two years 1 have boon In a miserably run-down condition, and was compelled a short time ago to give up all Idea of business as I was t weak to look after nnything. 1 was nervous, worn-out, had no appetite, and suffered most all the time with Indigestion. Some days I would rat scarcely anything; in fact I was nfnild to eat because I knew I would suffer afterward. Sometimes 1 had Ruch severe cramping pains after eating that I would almost die. My nerves were nil unstrung and the least thing would worry mo and I never could got a good night's sound sleep. In fact I Just lost Interest In everything and was greatly discouraged over my condition. "The ordinary treatment failed to do me nny good, and as I had read so many statements from people I know here In Portland who had been benefited by Tnnlac, I decided to give It a trial. And now I know for myself what It will do, for Phavo simply taken a new lease on life. I am now able to look after my work as usual, and never felt better In my life. I am able to eat three hearty meals a day and everything agrees with me perfectly. I eat anything 1 want and never feel a touch of Indigestion. I never thought there was a medicine that could do me so much good, and I am only too glad to have the facts about my case given to the publle." Tanlac Is sold by leading druggists everywhere. Adv.

5 fcu.il.i4.a-il.,j,.to..JL. TSARIBROD: A REGION Or RUMORS AND AROMAS Serbian forces were reiortel a few weeks ago to have entered Tsaribrod, hitherto on the Bulgarian side of the border, preparatory to occujatio:i of a strip of territory detached from lulgaria by the treaty of Neuilly which followed the World war. One traveler has described the roadbed along this segment over which the luxurious Orient Kxpress used to make It semi-weekly trip from Taris to Constantinople, as the worst in the world; and the mountain scenery a the finest. Probably both statements were exaggerated. Hut the ravines, boulders and torrential streams of the Nishava Hlver region, just before the railway crosses t lie liulgnrinn frontier, are comparable with the Alps and wmetinjes suggest our own (Jrand Canyon region in miniature. Tsaribrod is inconspicuous. It shelters a population of only a few thousand. It has the Inevitable castle, which still seeing to keep a frowning guard over red-roofed houses. Significantly, in view of tite economic life? of liuigarla, and the recent marked preponderance of agrarian representation in the government, each house has Its garden. After the Orient Kxpress passes the border lino it traverses the Slivnltza battlefield, the Hunker Hill of Huigaria; and the first Important city after Sofia Is Hhlllppopolls, in the vicinity of which one of the world's most esthetic industries Is established that of cultivating rose ganhns to distllL attar of roses. At l'hlllppopolls, under pressure of expected attacks from Turkey, Prince Alexander was Installed as the head of the newly united Hulgarian states In lSSfi. Unexpectedly It was Serbia, not Turkey, which made the move In protest against the union with eastern Humella. The Serbian forces mobilized in the Nishava valley; the Hulgarian army was far away. Hence a famous order, which resulted in the making of military history, to commanders of Hulgar units to hasten to Slivnltza. The speed with which the troops were moved, in this helter-skelter fashion, was remarkable. Their movement was accelerated by orders to citizens to furnish supplies as they passed. The advance held the Serbian forces, which were headed for Sofia, or Slivnltza. When reinforcements arrived the enemy was defeated. The Serbian armistice proposal was presented at Tsaribrod. This Incident gave Hulgarla a sense of national unity and prowess which may be compared to that which Japan attained by her defeat of the Kussians. WHY LIGHTHOUSES WON'T "STAY PUT" Long agitation to ivc Harnegat Light from removal, and announcement that jetties will be built to preserve the .historic beacon, give a hint of the extreme variability of coast lines and conditions. "A suney of the coast ofXew Jersey shows strikingly the results that are wrought upon a shoreline by the wind and the waves," write John Oliver 'LatSoree to th National Geographic society. "The beaches for the most part are being driven back by the sea, but the harbors, which were accessible to coasters quite within the memory of men now living, are being closed by the traveling drift, just as most cf the mouths of the streams emptying Into the ocean have been closed. "In a description of the Jersey coast, published in IST'J, it was stated that, prior to the war of 1S12, Old Cran- ! berry Inlet was one of the best anchoragos on the coast, and it afforded a safe harbor for American privateers on the lookout for Hritish ships during the Revolution. It opened one night by the angry sea breaking across the beach, and during the last year of its existence as a harbor the whole channel drifted nearly a mile to tin northward. Its closure, about 1S12. caused so much inconvenience that, in 1S-M, one Michael Ortley attempted to cut a new inlet near the head of Harnegat Hay. With the, assistance o others, it was finally finished; but the following morning, to the amazers?nt of the voluntary work ers, it had closed up again. Later another effort was made to effect thi same thing lower down the bay. The cut was completed July 4, 1847. the work being done by several hundred men under Anthony Iven. Jr. The water was let in. but it filled up almost as quickly as the Ortley cut, so relentlessly was the sea's war carried on. . "A survey at Atlantic City, in lSd:?. revealed the fact that in the course of but a few years the shore at Maine avenue had lest 76 aore. True, most of this material was deposited in the lee of the point extending from New Jersey to Ohio avenues, causing an advance of the beach lines at Pennsylvania avenue of about 1,000 feet and adding to this part of the plat some Td acres, all In the brief space of a decade. This transfer of prop

erty from one riparian owner to another without consideration Is not provided for In the statutes, but might properly he regarded as inequitable, especially to the original owner. However, no one has yet gone into court for an Injunction against the Fe a for thus robbing Peter to pay Paul. "When the lighthouse at Atlantic City was threatened. In 1S7S, the United States challenged the sea by the construction of a Jetty at the head of Atlantic avenue. Thus was InaugurnbMl a series of defensive works,' which have been continued from time to time by individuals, so that 82 additional acres have been reclaimed from the Fea to the great benefit of the city, as well as to that of the riparian owners; but they had to fight hard for every Inch." SAVING THE ELK A check-up of the elk In Yellowstone National park, last stronghold of these largest members of the deer family, shows a discouragingly small number there,. and it Is now feared that many more have perished than had been thought. The elk's existence depends upon his freedom to wander from the

highland snows to the shelter and for age of the valleys below. Early blizzards drive him outside the protection of the national reservation Into the midst of the open season for hunting in the two adjacent states. The southern herds follow the rivers, which How out of Yellowstone In all directions, to the famous Jackson Hole country, once the haunt of bandits and cattle thieves, where human life now is safe but where the inllux of civilization spells death for the elk. The northern herds when driven by Miowstenns usually descend into the Montana borderlands where settlements have fiung a barrier for wild animals across the edge of the pafk. Wholesale shooting of the elk lias been the first consequence in the past. Much of this shooting, according to report:; received In Washington, 1oes little credit to .'pcrtsnianship. Some marksmen have not troubled to follow and capture animals they have wounded. Their sheltered life in the national reservation has made the elk tarne; and they wander Into many a backyard to find unexpected enemies. Hut this shooting dees not mark the climax of the tragedy. As noted, the settlements have cut on the grazing lands. There !s ;ome provision for tl: southern herds, though woefully inadequate, but practically none for the northern herds. The protection afforded the elk which stray into Wyoming Is that of the state game preserves, known as the Hoodoo, Shoshone and Teton. Further protection Is that afforded in a limited way by the winter elk refuge at Jackson, Wyo., founded by the biological survey. There bay Is raised for feeding the elk, but some seasons far from enough has been on hand for the feeding of the thousands forced out of the park, and even out of the reservations, by the early winter. In ordinary and mild winters such as the present one the animals remain In the park; in more severe winters, when the cold and snows come late, the preserves and the refuge have taken care of many of them. SPANISH MOROCCO Spanish troops, according to recent newspaper dispatches, have, carried out important operations in the Spanish zone in northern Morocco.- In strengthening its military hold and extending its civil government In northern Morocco, Spain is turning the tables of history squarely about. Vor It was from this country that the Moors and Arabs swarmed across the Straits of d'ibraltar 1n the year 711 and placed Spain under a Mohammedan domination, the last vestiges of which were finally removed only in the year in which Columbus discover eil America. This Spanish Moroccan zone Is the pedestal of the southern of the two A Moroccan Type. "Pillars of Hercules," which for long centuries were the western portals of the known world. It is part of the Mauretanla of the I tomans, one cf their granaries when the empire was at its greatest. It was the country of the HarLary pirates who harassed the shipping of the world for centuries, collecting tribute from many goverr.meuts, and in whose suppression the infant United States navy eu: its first po-t-lievolutlonary war teeth in the j curly part of the Nineteenth century. It is now part of Morocco, which in many ways presrws more truly than any ether Mohammedan country the !l:;ve:- of the "Arabian N:htV

'Spain, lying ordy a few mil- ncrtfc of the northern hores of Morocco, was naturally one of the first of the modern nations of Europe to gain a foothold in that country. Mellllu, n seaeoast town "near the northeastern corner of Morocco, came Into the possession of Spain in 1107. and other

"Mediterranean coast towns have been captured at various times since. Though a definite zone of Spanish influence has been recognized since an agreement between France and Spain in 1012, Spain has done little more at nny time than to hold the ports and a small area of the hinterland about each. Spanish authority farther inland has been more or less nominal and has never been exercised at all In the more remote sections of the zone. Eaadits, of whom the chief was the notorious ItaSsuli, have operated in the Spanish territory In recent years with little molestation. One of their favorite activities lias been the kidnaping of Europtns and Americans for random. The Spanish Moroccan zone Is a relatively narrow strip of territory with an area about equaV to that of Helarium, or slightly greater than that of Vermont, extending across the entire northern part of Morocco. It has a frontage of about -00 miles on the Mediterranean sea and of about "0 miles on the Atlantic. It does not Include the city of Tangier on the northwesternmost point of Africa, that city with a surrounding territory of 110 square miles having been under International control since HUH. The country Is mountainous but contains considerable agricultural land. This portion of Africa is free from desert conditions. The Spanish zone, lil-.e the portion of Morocco under a French protectorate to the south, probably contains valuable mineral daioit4. but the disorders prevailing heretofore prevented adequate pro:-pectlng. In recent years Spain has spent much more on the .one than has been leceived from It In revenues. RHODESIA: A 1G21 LAND OF OPHIR Suggestion by archeologlsts that Khodesia may bo the land of Ophlr, mentioned In the P.ible as a source of Solomon's riches, lends added Interest to a region already attracting attention for Its present-day resources. The act creating the important Union of South Africa to the south reserves the right to add Hhodesia to that dominion of the Hritisli empire. U. 1. Parsons, writing to the National (leographlc society, describes some phases of Uhodosian life as follows : 'The wet season In Ithodesla begins in November and lasts until the first of June. All kinds of garden seeds and cereals are in the ground by t'hristmas and in January the first crop of millet is harvested. (Ireat ceremonies attend both sowing and reaping. The dry season begins in June and lasts until the end of October. It Is occupied with threshing, hoarding grain, storing wood and burning brush on seed beds fcr the sake of the wood ashes. "No matter how hot the days are, the nights are cool and campllres are needed. On the elevated tablelands or plateaus the night aire very cold. "Taxes are not onerous in Rhodesia, as each hut pays only three shillings a year, which is 72 cents, or a rate of 0 cents per month. "The Zambezi river, which forms the southern boundary of North Rhodesia, is spanned at Livingstone, Just below the Victoria falls, by an Americanmade cantilever ' bridge bearing the Cape to Cairo railroad. As the water plunges 4fK) feet, the electrical energy to bo developed Is incalculable. It Is proposed to carry the wires on steel pedes' fashioned like oil derricks, to the Kimberly mines, Johannosberjr, Pretoria and around to Cape Town, on the cue hand, and up through Khartum and the Nile valley. Even the pyramids may be decorated with lights made to glow by current from these mighty falls. "In a country like Rhodesia where there are no roads either good, bad or indifferent, getting about is no fun. All the Hritish officials have 'bikes,' but they are more ornamental than useful, so they use the 'machilla' which, to quote them, Is an invention of the devil: It consists of a long pole with two natives at each end. Midway hangs the hammock for the 'hroana,' alias the English victim, whose back is lacerated by bushes and stumps and his body more or less submerged when going across a riveh The bearers keep up a chant that sounds like the wall of lost spirits, and it never occurs to them that Uie passenger is not as happy as if in a Pullman chair car. "Some of these African tribes have alert, active minds. They can commit to memory page after page of a textbook, but the trouble is they do not comprehend the meaning. They learn telegraphy, typewriting, the manual of arms, etc., with wonderful rapidity and as nothing Is more dear to the African heart than ceremony, they go Into ecstasies over parades and the morning and evening fing tactics. "In most of the tribes are to be found skilful artificers. Show theni a piece of imported furniture and th?y will exactly duplicate It. They weave bar!: fabrics of every kind and manufacture musical instruments, keyed, string, wind and percussion. Wherever suitable clay is found, they mnke pottery, tiles an! brick. Almost every English oTicial has a picturesque residence of brick with tile ro f. surr..uaded by beautiful gardens.
