MAURICE'S SUCCESSOR
IS 'DEMOCRATIC DUKE
. LONDON, Aug. 24. 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."

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
