The new Duke of Northumberland is the war office's spokesman to American newspaper re porters. He succeeded General Mau rice. He meets with the reporters twice a week Tuesday and Fridays and tells all about the latest movements of the allied armies throughout the world. The Duke is a most democratic chap. There isn't any question he won't an swer. A blackboard, a cane, maps of all battle fronts, and a shorthand reporter are the Duke's equipment for these newspaper conferences. By all the rules of the game over here the Duke is entitled to be ad dressed as "Your Grace." An American correspondent shocked an official the other day when he in quired if the Duke had arrived to see the newspaperman. '-. "Oh, I say, you mustn't call him just Duke," remonstrated the official. "It's His Grace you must say." , The American -appeared crestfallen at such a blunder, but was restored to normal a second later when a sinp on the shoulder brought him about face to the Duke who had heard the con versation and wbb laughing. "Come in," he said to the American, leading the way to the reporters' room. Now the Duke is cne of the "gang." W1IKN HUI! BACK Al'HKS. A-.Woman Finds All Her Energy And Ambition Slipping Ana)'.

KM CAINS Tran m pouiDS Was Twice Examined and Eaach Time . . Told Operation Would Be Her Only Hope. 7 "I have just finished my third bot tle of Tanlac and have gained twenty seven pounds," was the truly remark able statement made by Mrs. Chas. Pcdan, residing at 550 Mill street, Huntsville, Alabama. Mrs. Peden is one of the best known and most highly respected women of that thriving lit tle city, where she has made her home for a number of years. "When I commenced taking the medicine," she continued, ';i only weighed ninety-eight (98) pounds; now 1 weigh one hundred and twenty five pounds and never felt better in my life. For years I have Suffered witH a bad form of stomach trouble, constipation and pains in my side and back. At times tlie pains took the form of torture and I was twice exam ined and each time told that an opera tion would be my only hope. I had fallen off until I only weighed ninety .eight pounds and was so weak J could hardly get around. "I had no appetite scarry at all, and what little I did eat would cause gas to form in my stomach which gave me palpitation of the heart, sick headaches and a dizzy feeling about the head. When those spells came on me. I would get awfully nervous. I wo' lied about myself until I could rest and sleep but little. "I had fallen off until I was almost . 'skin and bones' and my strength and energy were slowly leaving me. I had a rVead of the future and could see nolhing but the operating table and the knife. I had n perfect horror of an operation, but had made up mv j mind that it was either life or death and prepared to submit to it. I had made all preparations for the opera tion and called on my sister to tell her goodbve, as I did not know whether I would live to see her again or not My sister begged and pleaded with me not to allow them to cut on me and i tolij me to wait and try a good tonic !! for; a while. The next day as I re- i turned irom tne consultation room I thought of what she had said, and as I had heard so much about Tanlac, I decided to try it as a last resort, and stopped at the drug store and got a buttle. Of course, I had lost heart anil had no faith in medicine, but to please my sister, I made up my mind to 'take it, and oh, what a happy day that was for me! ''I never returned for tho operation, but just kept taking Tanlac and my improvement has been so rapid that none of my clothes fit me. Right iium me start l oegnn to improve. The medicine seemed to take hold right at once. It had a soothing ef fect, and in a few days I felt no pain at all. I was so hunnv over mv umn derfui improvement that 1 sent for my neighbors to tell them how much better I felt. I sent and got another outue oi laniac and have just fin ished my third and feel like I have been made all over again into a new woman. "As I have said before, I now weigh one hundred twenty-five pounds and none of my clothes are big enough for me, and I will have to make them over again. I now have a ravenous:! appctitie and my husband says I am;1 simply eating him out of house and ' ACQUIRING A PERFECT FIGURE home.
