C. Feely, of West 76th street, New York, inherited from her brother certain lots in Long Island. The real ty company from which they were pur chased had contracted to make eertain improvements. Mrs. Feely relied on the company to send the tax bills a they became due. Bhe promptly paid them. But the company did not make the improvements. When demand was fmudo it communicated the information that taxes due in 1914 had not been paid by Mrs. Feely and that a tin ! shark had bought in the property, worth : 2,500 for 12. The. time for redemp tion had expired. In 1914 the company (had failed to send Mrs. Feely the tax jbill, although it had gent subsequent statements, and had slipped out of its contract. She has lost her property. I Mrs. Boba Minford, a New York dressmaker invested 6,500 in Long Beach lots lated to find that they had been sold for taxes to a wealthy New York citizen for 30.15 in ' delinquent Uses. The tax buyer refused to re turn the property at any price. Anton J. Wettaeh, a New York mer chant, owned property in Nassau coun ty, New York. Two professional tax title buyers squeezed him out of 300 after they had bought in his property for a few cents less than 5. These are facts brought out. in an official investigation now under way in Xi'W York of the operations of tax title sharks and are published in the New York World, In Oregon there is a tax notice sys tem which is tho best yet devised.

NFLUEKZA WORSE 1 JHAN HUN BULLETS Claiming lore Victims Than Battle Fronts Of Europe Disease Can Be Avoided According to carefully compiled sta tistics it is an indisputable faet that the Spanish influenza epidemic which is 'now sweeping all parts of the country it daily claiming far more victims than German bullets on the battle fronts of . Kurope. Although civil and military authorities have succeeded in check ing the disease in some localities, it is growing worse in others and continues to spread at an alarming rate. That the 'd;sease can be avoided there is no longer any doubt According U lead ing authorities the powers of resistance of the Jimiian system can be o perfect ed that it can throw off almost any in fect'en. not even excepting Spanish In fluenza, which is one of the most con tagious diseases known. ' It i persons who are guffering from lowered vitality, who are weak and rundown and who have not the strength to throw it off who are the earlic-it victims. Persons who havo bad coids, who are suffering from catarrhal troub les, or inflammation of the muccuus membranes are especially susceptible, us the inflamed mucous munbrane lin iug.. of the nose and tin at are an open door to the germs. This condition is always accompanied by a weakened condition of the system. ' If you are guffering from any of these symptoms, nothing on earth will build you up and strengthen you like Tanlac, which contains the most power ful tonic properties known to science. This statement is easily proven by the fact that Tanlac is now having the greatest sale of any system tonic in the history of medicine. In less than four years time over ten million bottles have been sold and the demand is con stantly increasing.5 Thousands are using it daily for the above troubles wth the most astonishing and gratifying re sults; " ' Tunlue increases your strength and weight and creates a good hosithy ap petite for nourishing food. It keeps you physically fit and helps every or gan of the 'body perform its proper function in the 'natural way.

WELD SEVEff WAR WORK AGENCIES INTO RELIEF ARMY 0 i Great Organizations Which Are Helping to Keep Up the Morale of Fighting" Millions Unite in Campaign for $170,500,00(1 With millions of American men on war fronts, In training camps and on the seas and with thousands of Ameri can women on foreign soil, sll engaged in the stupendous task of making the world safe for democracy, a great duty devolves upon those who remain in the United States, the duty of send ing Home to those who have put Home behind them for the period of the war. The agencies through which this can be accomplished are Joined in the United War Work Campaign. From being given the cigarette or chocolate bar, with which he stays his hunger In the fury of battle, to the the ntrlcal entertainment or the ath letic games, which reins him Into for mal comfort after weeks of terrific combat, the American fighter Is de pendent upon the continued efforts of the Y. M. C. A., the Y. W. C. A., the National Catholic War Council and K. of 0., the War Camp Community Serv ice, the, Jewish Welfare Board, the American Library Association and the Salvation Army. To carry on this work the combined welfare organiza tions are seeking a fund of $170,500, 000. The Y. M. O. A. provides 538 huts In Amerlcnn training camps and more than 800 In the war zone as centres which the fighters can, use as clubs, schools, theatres, stores, churches, 11 brnrles and writing rooms. More than 7,000 men and women had been sent overseas or : approved ' for overseas work by early autumn and 3,822 were serving In American camps at home. t. M. C. A. huts are the canteens of the American Expeditionary Force and nre the theatres where the Amerlcnn entertainers, sent over by the "Y," ap pear. Noted American public men and clergymen speak In the huts. Classes nre conducted there. Millions of letters are written there on paper provided free by the "Y." Physical directors of the "Y" teach and spread mass ath letics, using material furnished , free by the organization. The Y. W. C A. does similar work for the thousands of American women In war- work ,oversess signal corps telephone j operators, v nurses and French munition workers. It provides cafeterias, rest and recreation centres, entertainment and reading for these women and girls. Tho Y, W. O. A.'s outstanding con tribution to soldier, welfare work In training camps was the establishment of Hostess Ilouses, where- the soldier or sailor may receive his mother, wife, sister or sweetheart In the surround ings and atmosphere of the best , homes. The National Catholic War Council co-ordinates all Catholic welfare work In . support of the government and through the K. of C. provides club houses for our fighters In all Ameri can training camps, as well as having seventy-five centres In France and three In England. In their huts the K. of C provides entertalnlngment, movies, boxing bouts, educational work, rellgloils services, free station ery, reading matter nnd writing rooms. In France their rolling canteen ac companies the Amerlcnn army, their secretaries march with the troops, giv ing away cigarettes, cookies, choco lates, soap nnd towels. Tho K. of C. had 300 workers In France at the beginning of autumn, with 450 more passed by the govern ment and 200 others signed, up. At the same date they had 468 secretaries In American training camps, 150 build ings, fifty-six more In the course of erection and contracts let fer fifty more. Wnr Cntnp Community Service functions exclusively In America, Its Special mission being to "surround the camps with hospitality." In place of leaving the soldier or sailor to the promiscuous companions and diver sions formerly his lot, the organiza tion obtulns for him the best to be had In communities adjoining camps or through which he passes. W. O. C. S. obtains for him Invita tions to dine, bathe or spend the day in the best homes. It Introduces him to the best women and girls at social gatherings, church entertainments, theatre parties. It arouses communi ties to provide concerts, athletic con tests and other wholesome diversions for the soldier, and to drive out or discourage the vicious elements which have been historic camp followers. The Jewish Welfare Board Is corre lating the strength and purposes of 100,000 Jewish soldiers, sailors and marines with that of the Gentile sol diers. The board teaches the English language, American civics and Ideals to thousands of young Jewish men who were Inducted into service after only a few years' residence In this country.

Barker Bids Godspeed to the Graduates of Train ing School. The whole-souled co-operation be tween the seven great organizations working for the happiness nnd welfare of our soldiers and sailors was re cently Illustrated at the graduation exercises of the tenth class of the Jewish Welfare Board's Training School In New York. Col. William S. Barker, who went to France represent ing the Salvation Army with the first contingent of bur troops and has been "over there" fifteen months, was the principal speaker and wished the fifty eight Jewish workers of the class God speed, while Louis Marshall, the promi nent Jewish attorney and philanthro pist of New York, lauded the work of the Salvation Army among tho boys at the front. 1 "What our fighting boys need Is In spiration and heart and character In those who are there to help them," declared Col. Barker. "You will rep resent In the camps and overseas the Ideals and standards of the Jewish faith, and It Is up to you above all things to be consistent In your re ligious practices. Practice what you preach. That, I am sure, has been the secret of our own success. If you live np to the principles of your faith and give what you have to give from a heart big with love, the boys will re spect you, whether they be Protestant, Catholic or Jew." The newly graduated field workers will make a total of 260 men' doing field work In our camps and naval training stations under the auspices of the Jewish Welfare Board. The Board has about fifty "huts" In the various camps and maintains centers In all large cities .where soldiers and sailors of all faiths are welcomed. A headquarters has recently been estab lished In Paris, and 100 men are being recruited here for overseas work. There are now nearly 125,000 Jews serving In the army and navy.

Germany bought vast quantities of copper in the United States, through Holland, in tho years preceding the- war, and that ac counts for her enduranco in the present fighting, according to Ex-Senator W. A. Clark, Montana copper king. Three big copper shipping concerns were run by German directors and vast shipments wore made by these compa nies to Holland, Clark declared here to day.
