“Thanks to Tanlac I am now en
joying life for- the first time in
years," recently declared Arthur Le
beau, so eman of the Porter Screen
Co., Winooski, Vermont. "For five
year* I was a sick man. My princi
pal trouble was Indigestion. I had
no appetite and generally went off to
work without any breakfast because
I knew if I ate anything it would
only upset me.
“My condition was so bad in fact,
I could neither sleep, eat nor work
with any satisfaction and was so
nervous that the least thing wmuld
upset me. Nothing seemed to,, agree
with me and I would have severe
cramping pains In my stomach and
at times my heart would palpitate
badly. I also suffered from short
ness of breath, and the least little
exertion would make my heart
thump like an engine.
“At last I almost decided I would
give up my job as I got so weak and
miserable I felt I could stand It no
longer.
“One night as I sat reading a pa
per I saw a statement about Tanlac
which convinced me it was just the
medicine I needed. It helped me
from the very first dose and at the
time I had finished my third
bottle, I hardly knew myself.
“I never have the slightest symp
tom of indigestion now and I feel
like a brand new man in every way.
My appetite Is splendid, my nerves
are steadied and I sleep soundly at
night. The work I used to dread
now seems easy for me and I am
now in the very ‘pink of condition.’
Os course, I am only too glad to rec
ommend this medicine.”
Tanlac is sold by all leading drug
gists.

MU PUBLIC
15 TAPERING OFF
• IN LUXURY BUYING
July 10—Indica
tions that the American public is
gradually tapering off its luxury buy
ing appeared in reports gathered
from various government depart
ments today.
At the Internal revenue bureau It
was shown that many classes of lux
ury taxes have shown a sharp falling
off in the last few months.
At the treasury it was said that
Liberty bond sales are on the in
crease, many banks reporting diffi
culty in enough bonds of
the smaller denominations to supply
the demands of customers.
The commerce department reports
show that importations of cut and
uncut diamonds which totaled 85,164
karats in May, 1919, dropped to 17,-
986 karats in May, 1920. At the same
department It was said that 5,000 dia
mond cutters are idle in Antwerp be
cause of the dropping of purchases
by this country.
Luxury taxes for May this year
compared with collections in May,
1919, show a drop. Taxes on sales
of perfumes and cosmetics droppea
about 30 per cent; collections on
autos for hire shO'wed a drop of
about 80 per cent; those on candy
sales droped about 100 pep cent; soft
drink sales dropped a like
amount and taxes on yachts and mo
tor boats fell off 25 per cent.
Sales of these articles are indica
tive of the surplus in the American
pocketbook after necessities are pur
chased. They are bought only after
necessities are obtained in ample
proportion.
Many luxury expenditures, how
ever, still are running at the same
rate as usual since the armistice
when the wave of national extrava
gance began. Theater admissions
have not yet begun to show a de
cline, according to tax receipts.
Speculation is beginning to slack
off, according to tax receipts on brok
erage businesses., In May this tax
netted the government only 552,113,
as compared with $144,700 for the
corresponding month one year ago.
Economic experts studying the re
turns <o the various departments to
day said they may indicate that
Americans are beginning to save
money or they may mean that the
present high prices of food, shelter
and clothing are taking so large a
share of the earnings of the Ameri
can family that there Is nothing left
for luxuries. •.
WORLD LEAGUE
WILL MEET ON
NOVEMBER 15
WASHINGTON, July 10.-j The
first meeting of the assembly of the
League of Nations will be held on
November 15 under the call which
scon will be issued by President
Wilson.
While the place for the session has
been selected, it was said at the
state department today that this

governments. The president is un
derstood to have favored Geneva,
but most of the allies prefer Brus

Says Car Shortage
Is Likely to Close
Many Steel Mills
WASHINGTON, July 10.—Suspen
sion of work in many steel plants,
throwing thousands of workmen out
of employment is threatened be
cause of car shortage the interstate
commerce commission was told to
day by J. F. Townsend, representing
more than a score of steel manu
facturers in Pennsylvania and
Ohio.
Approximately 1,500,000 tons of
steel products requiring 28,300 cars
to move them, are piled up at the
mills awaiting transportation, he
added.
“Over twenty blast furnaces are
idle in the great steel-producing
section,” continued Mr. Townsend,
“but all are ready to be put in op
eration as soon as transportation
conditions will warrant, which means
supply of fuel, limestone and other
commodities.”

(Copyright,. 1920.)
NEW YORK.—Poor Paderewski!
From the wonderful, the wealthy,
the worshiped artist, through the
premiership of nis native land, to a
fortunes, talent and hopes wrecked
position of obscurity, with health,
—that is the strange career of con
trasts pursued by the greatest pian
ist of his generation and one of the
few artists who also have held a
political post of the highest distinc
tion.
Dispatches from England, where
Paderewski has just received an
honorary degree at Oxford, tell us
that America’s one time matinee idol
of the chrysanthemum locks and
Poland’s one time premier and self
sacrificing patriot has given up both
the piano and politics and, ill and
discouraged, is about to become the
most private of private citizens.
Yet only eighteen months ago Ig
nace Jan Paderewski was the idol of
his fellow countrymen, the most
prominently mentioned candidate for
the presidency of Poland. He finally
accepted the ofllbe of premier and
foreign minister, at the request of
General Pilsudski—the same man
with whom he now disagrees so
drastically on matters of- states pol
icy that he has determined on politi
cal retirement. '
Than Paderewski no one has ever
offered a more complete proof of the
platitude about the ingratitude of re
publics, His fortune of at least sl,-
000,000, his health, his artistic gen
ius he has sacrificed on the altar of
patriotism.
A Real Patriot
Before the war the average Amer
ican thought of Paderewski, the Na
poleon of the piano, as a man with a
haircut like a toy Pomeranian’s, a
man. whom emotional and osculatory
ladies tried to mob at afternoon ire-'
citals, a recipient of bushels of ar
dent notes from unintroduced admir
ers, a person who insured his hands
for $50,000, a lucky dog who annual
ly sailed away from that dear Amer
ica with a small fortune. In one year
he received SIBO,OOO for sixty-seven
American recitals. And his salary
as Polish premier was equivalent to
about SSO a month!
Paderewski, however, was always
a good Pole and ardently devoted to
the cause of Polish freedom.
When the United States declared
war oh Germany he started at once
Ford Buys Railroad
To Coal Fields; Price
Around $84,000,000
DETROIT, Mich., July 10.—An
nouncement of purchase by the Hen
ry Ford interests of the Detroit, To
ledo and Ironton railroad, which fur
nishes direct connection with Ohio
and Kentucky coal fields, was made
here today.
Purchase of the road was, In part,
the' -outgrowth of difficulties Michi
gan industries have experienced for
several years In obtaining coal from
the southeastern bituminous fields.
Negotiations for the purchase of
the road had been under way several
weeks. Security holders deposited
their bond under an option good until
August 1. At that time it was said
th£ deal would Involve approximate
ly $84,000,000.
Some 2,000 employes of the rail
road, Mr. Leibold added, will Im
mediately receive the benefits of the
Ford wage bonus plan.
It was stated the name of the rail
road will be changed but that few
changes will be made in its person
nel.
In providing passenger service, it is
intended, according to the announce
ment to utilize the new gasoline
driven car of the interurban type
which Ford engineers have developed.
The Ford company also announced
the purchase of 400,000 acres of for
est and mineral land In the northern
peninsula of Michigan, where a saw
mill and automobile body plant em
ploying approximately 2,500 men will
be maintained.
According to the announcement' all
wooden parts used by the company
in body construction will be manu
factured at the northern Michigan
plant complete and shipped to De
troit. Evidence of mineral deposits
in the tract has been found accord
ing to the announcement and in case
sufficient iron is disclosed to justify
such action, steps toward the devel
opment of mines will be taken.
The northern peninsula property
surrounds lake Michigan in Barraga,
Iron and Marquette counties. The
• most probable site for the proposed
plant, officers said, was near Repub
lic, Mich.
Asheville Merchant Is
Held for Larceny of
Millions in Freight
ASHEVILLE, N. C„ July 10.—
Gustave Litchenfels, a member of
the local firm of S. Sternberg &
Co., was arrested here yesterday on
a federal warrant charging him with
conspiracy in the theft of several
millions of dollars’ worth of mer
chandise from freight cars, wharves
and barges in New York City.
He waived preliminary examina
tion and gave h bond of $15,000 for
his appearance on August 3 before
the New York federal court.
A similar warrant was issued for
S. Sternberg, father-in-law of Litch
enfels, -who is now in Europe. The
men, with forty-eight others, recent
ly were indicted by the New York
federal court. William and Emil
Litchenfels, brothers of Gustave, are
among those indicted. They reside
in New York.
Mother Is Killed
By 4-Year-Old Son
GREENVILLE, Ky.. July 10.—
When Mrs. Willis Graham, twenty
six years old, tried to stop her four
year-old son, Harold, from carrying
a loaded shotgun out of their home
near here today, the child pulled the
trigger. The full load entered the
mother’s breast, killing her instantly.
Mrs. Graham had put down a nurs
ing infant to restrain the child with
the gun.
a movement for the Polish legion,
obtaining the approval* of the war
department for this plan, and then
organizing the formation, equipment
and training of the legion. In the
allied battle line in France, during
the last summer of the war, there
were 15,000 Poles recruited from the
United States—s,ooo from New York
—and they carried into action both
the Stars and Stripes and the nation
al flag of Poland.
When Paderewski sailed for Eu
rope,. just after the armistice, it be
came known that he had spent every
dollar of his private fortune in Pol
ish relief, ana that his health was
seriously impaired by four years and
a half of day-and-night devotion to
the national cause.
In Warsaw he was received with
cheers and with bands playing the
national anthems. His first under
taking was to tour the country in an
effort to unite the divided factions
of Poland, during which tour he was
shot at by assassins and narrowly
escaped death. Elected premier, he
headed the coalition cabinet and rep
resented Poland before the peace
conference at Paris, where he made
an earnest plea for vital supplies.
His Wife Devoted
But his ill success in securing
rights in Galicia for the Poles seems
to have been the beginning of his
fall from popular favor. was
criticism of his talents as an admin
istrator, and in the autumn of 1915
the Polish Peasants’ party announced
opposition to him. He resigned
promptly. Still he retained his seat
in the diet, and insisted that there
was no bitterness in his heart be
cause of his withdrawal from the
premiership, but that “his work was
done.”
A month or two earlier he con
fessed, in Paris, that he had given up
his art for his country. “I am glad,”
he said simply, “to have sacrificed
in the cause of my country that
which I held most dear. My art I
have given up completely, and, hav
ing had no time to think of it, I have
forgotten it. I have hot played a
piano for two years and three
months. Ido not regret it.”
Yet what does the future hold for
Paderewski—at sixty? One thing is
sure. He may have forgotten his
art, his country may have forgotten
him, but the tenderness and devoted
companionship of beautiful Helena
Paderewski will be with him to the
end.
Outlaw Mule Eludes -
Pursuers Using Dogs
In Mountain Chase
HEFLIN, Ala., 10. —About
twelve months ago Paul Ferguson,
living on the Georgia-Alabama state
line, near here, purchased three or
four mules from a dealer in Cedar
town, Ga., but on his way back to
his home in Cleburne county, one of
the mUle.s escaped into the moun
tains. There it has remained for a
year or more, although efforts have
been made frequently to capture the
animal.
Last week Willis Bennett, a mule
dealer, of Heflin, bought the mule,
“unsight, unseen,” and this week,
with a party of old fox hunters, went
into the mountains to round up the
animal, carrying with them half a
dozen or more hounds. The party
was not long in the mountains be
fore the dogs struck the trail of the
mule, and the chase began, continu
ing for six or eight hours. The mule
proved too fast for the dogs, how
ever, and the race had to be called
off. Another effort to capture the
mule will be made in a few days.
Negro Confesses to
Murder of Anniston
Street Car Conductor
ANNISTON, Ala., July 10.—Edgar
Caldwell, a negro soldier under sen
tence of death for the murder of an
Anniston street car conductor, Cecil
Linton, in 1918, has confessed his
crime and declared his conversion and
belief in Jesus Christ.
The negro, who is sentenced to be
hanged here July 30, declared that
he was confident his sentence would
be commuted to life imprisonment
“The devil made me kill Mr. Lin
ton,” he said, “and I would have been
lost forever if I had been executed
immediately after the killing. 1 was
converted on February 28th and God
has revealed to me that He would
save me from the hangman’s noose.
The Lord had a hand in getting me
into trouble, in order to save my
soul.”
Petitions asking that Caldwell’s
sentence be commuted to life im
prisonment will be presented to the
governor of Alabama, it is under
stood. Acting Governor Miller would
be called upon to pass on them, how
ever, as Governor Kilby is touring
the west and Canadian northwest.
Masked Bandits Break
Up Game of Poker
SHREVEPORT, La., July 10.—
Three masked bandits rudely dis
turbed a social game of poker in a
tent in the oil fields near Herman,
La., and besides breaking up the
game and getting off with SI,OOO on
the table, they wounded John L. Wil
liams, of Natchitoces, La., employed
at Herman, by an oil company, and
“Slim” Aubert, of Oil City.
The wounded men and their com
panions had reached a high pitch of
excitement about midnight and the
stakes were running high. In their
interest in the game, they. failed to
notice that the rear of the tent was
suddenly thrown up. They heard
“hands up,” and looking up saw
three men whose faces were masked
with handkerchiefs, each with a re
volver in hand. Aubert whipped out
a revolver and fired at the robbers,
who returned his fire, wounding him
and Williams. The poker players
rushed from the tent, the robbers se
curing the money and making their
get away.
■INEE TO ■
■■ISE M
TO MESIDENT
WASHINGTON, July 10.—The two
League of Nations reservations pro
posed by Governor James M. Cox,
Democratic presidential nominee,
probably will prove acceptable to
President Wilson, it was indicated
at the White House today.
At the White House it was said
that the two reservations appeared
to be purely interpretative, and it
was added Wilson has never objected
to interpretative reservations.
While Mr. Wilson’s attitude was
thus clearly indicated, it was made
plain that no direct word of his po
sition on the Cox proposals will be
given out until after the proposed
conference between the Democratic
candidate and the president. At this
conference, It is understood Governor
Cox will urge President Wilson tc
back his reservations.
At the White House, it was point
ed out that the proposed reserva
tions have not been formally pre
sented to President Wilson and that
he obviously would make no direc'
comment on them until they were.
It was pointed out, however, that
the president has always held tha’
the League of Nations was merely
a war preventative and that it did
not affect the power of the congress
over war declarations. He has al
ways contended that nothing in the
covenant endangers this power, but
has said he would not object to hav
ing the point clarified by an inter
pretative reservation, it was stated
GOVERNOR COX’S PLAN
TO RATIFY THE TREATY
DAYTON, Ohio, July 10.—Demo
cratic Presidential Nominee Cox in
his forthcoming visit to the White
House will urge President Wilson to
back him in two proposed reserva
tions to the League of Nations cove
nant, it was leafned today.
The first provides that the United
States enter the League of Nations
with the distinct understanding of
all other members that the Ameri
can congress alone shall say when
this country shall enter a war.
The second is definite stipulation
that all members of the league agree
that Its main and virtually sole pur
pose shall be the prevention of wars.
Governor Cox said today that he
believes that he and the president
will have little difficulty in reaching
an agreement on the league ques
tion. The governor’s advisers em
phasized that he desired ratification
of the treaty but that he realized it
could not be done until opposing
factions are brought together.
At the same time it was stated
that the nominee will not stand for
sacrificing of the vital features of
the covenant, but that he believes a
majority of both parties favor a real
league to end war.
A statement of Governor Cox be
fore his nomination and editorials In
his paper reveal that he is aqxious
to steer as far away as possible from
the long wrangle between the presi
dent and the senate.
Watson’s Wire Received
The first reservation of Governor
Cox, his close friends say, covers the
long dispute over, Article 10. His
views leave all questions as to
whether the United States shall by
force protect the political integrity
of other nations up to Congress.
Thomas E. Watson, of Georgia, to
day wired Cox “that you will have
the full power and whatever influence
I possess in-the south and throug
out the nation.”
“I hope and believe you will win,”
was the message from Secretary
Houston.
Governor Cox is making a strenu
ous effort to get affairs in shape here
so he may return to Columbus Mon
day morning.
The governor’s Dayton friends are
pleased with the prospects of him
carrying the campaign immediately
into the western states and they be
lieve such a plan will be approved
by the national committee. They de
sire, however, to see the governor
make a vigorous campaign in his
home state, though they profess to
see in the west a fertile field for
Democracy.
The governor has no conferences
scheduled for today, though as on
other days it is expected there will
be a number of informal calls.
Governor Cox and Franklin D.
Roosevelt, the Democratic standard
bearers, will have their first meeting
since the San Francisco convention,
in the executive office at Columbus
next Monday afternoon. The gover
nor received a telegram from Mr.
.Roosevelt today saying he will leave
St. Louis tomorrow evening, and will
arrive in Columbus about noon Mon
day. Governor Cox will go to Co
lumbus either Sunday evening or
early Monday morning.
Os English-Scotch Descent
Governor Cox will get his first
hand information on the San Fran
cisco convention tomorrow from
Judge T. T. Ansberry, of Washing,-
ton, D. C., who was a delegate from
the District of Columbia, and one of
the governor’s leaders in the con
vention. He will arrive tomorrow
morning and go direct to the gov
ernor’s home at Trail’s End.
Senator McKellar, of Tennessee,
and David R. Francis, former am
bassador to Russia, sent felicitations
today.
“Keep a level head,” was the greet
ing sent by Harvey C. Garber, an
Ohio Democratic leader, who for
many years was the governor's bit
ter political enemy. Garber wired
from Denver.
Governor Cox today corrected pub
lished statements that he is of Eng
lish-German extraction. He stated
his parents were of English and
Scotch descent.
Governor Cox today received an in
vitation from W. J. Southam, Ham
ilton, Ontanio, to attend a luncheon
there, August 9, given by Southam in
honor of the imperial press dele
gates including Lords Burnham and
Northcliffe other leading jour
nalists of England and Canada. The
invitation suggested that Governor
Cox speak on international relations
or on the League of Nations. The
governor has not Indicated whether
he will accept the Invitation.

“Mother of Emory Unit”
Crosses Ocean to Attend
Reunion Here This VUeek
W'Z 'VTtCB.n GBEENE
From the old gray town of Blois
on the banks of the River Loire
is coming to Atlanta this week a
very lovely lady, to see again the
men and women to whom she will
always be the bravest heart in
France.
They call her “the Mother of the
Emory Unit,” and she is just that —
for it was her courage, her kjndness
and her comfort which, during all the
weary months the Emory unit spent
in France, did most to hearten its
members and make them feel at
home.
And now, just because they wanted
her here and because she in turn
wanted them, Madame Henri Raguln,
of St. George Department, Loire-Et-
Cher, has traveled thousands of
miles across the Atlantic to attend
the second annual reunion of the
Emory unit next Saturday afternoon
at the farm of Dr. E. C. Davis, four
miles from Buckhead, near Atlanta.
Ga., U. S. A.
With her wdll come another per
son dear to the Emory Unit—Lieu
tenant Robert Fletcher, of Texas,
who left two legs in France, but
brought back with him to America
the same undying sunshine of spirit
that made him the “favorite patient”
while he was in Base Hospital For
ty-Three, Blois.
Lieutenant Fletcher Is still in Wal
ter Reed hospital, Washington, but
Madame Raguin will stop there on
her way south and will bring him to
the Atlanta reunion.
The story of Madame Reguin.and
what she meant to the Emory Unit
could only be told properly by one
who had known her and come be
neath the influence of her gentle
ness and her kindness. But the sim
ple facts are these:
She was a wealthy woman, with a
magnificent home at Blois and a
chateau at St. George’s, four hours’
ride away. During the war, while
her husband was serving at the
front, her only child, a daughter,
died qf spinal meningitis. Madame
Raguin was heart-broken. Because
she knew that only through service
to others could she find again the
happiness she had lost, she left her
home and in Paris began to study
under the famous Dr. Carrell, grad
uate of the Rockefeller Institute and
originator of the celebrated Carrell-
Dakin solution for wound treatment.
She made a record in her work,
and when the members of the Emory
Unit arrived in France in the latter
part of May, 1918, and were as
signed to Base Hospital Forty-Three
at Elois, they found that Madame
Raguin had been sent to them as a
French volunteer nurse.
Then began the friendship between
the patrician lady of France and the
strangers from America that won so-
Madame Raguin the love and adm'-
ration of every member of the unit
officers, nurses and enlisted men
alike, and the title of “mother”
which each of them bestowed upon
her in all sincerity.
In the hospital wards she was
tireless—working from morning till
night for hours on a, stretch, espe
cially during those heart-breaking
days in the summer and autumn of
1918, when the bloody hospital
trains came in from the front two
and three times a week, loaded down
with 360 patients each to keep the
doctors and their helpers laboring

them. When they stopped the gan
grene at last, Lieutenant Fletcher
was as nothing below the waist.
How her stood it was a miracle;
but a greater miracle was the sub
lime refusal of him ever to let that
game smile die from his face, no
matter what the pain, no matter how
hopeless the prospect. He had been
a ranchman before the war, riding
the range with the best of them.
But in base hospital forty-three,
as looked down at the quilt that
covered nothing, what did he say?
This wag what he said, with a
grin that never weakened, though
his heart was breaking—“ Well, I’ll
never ride range again. They cer
tainly made a cotton-picker out of
me, ditin’t they?”
That is the boy who, with Madame,
will be the guest of honor at the
Emory Unit reunion next Saturday.
We’ll leave it to you what sort of
reception they are going to get. «
Madame will prolong her visit as
long as she Can—a matter of weeks,
anyway. At the first she will be
the guest of Dr. and Mrs. Fritz
Hodgson, then she will visit other
members of the unit. She has
enough invitations to last her sev
eral years, at least.
Already, 250 members of the Emory
Unit have promised to be at the re
union. It will start at 3 o’clock, and
from 1:30 to 2:30 o’clock, automo
biles will meet street cars at Buck
head to take the guests to the Davis
farm.
