The display is the work of one of America's greatest lithographic artists and the manufacturers of Tan lac state that the totalcost will ex ceed sixty thousand dollars, which is said to be a record prick for window displays. It is in ten distinct and natural Colors, and presents scenes from the Rocky Mountains, as well as from Europe, Asia, Peru, pgypt and other foreign countries. The natives are seen in their nat ural habitat and environment, gath ering the roots, herbs and barks that form the medicinal ingredients of Tanlac, packing them upon the backs-fas of camels, elephants, llamas and other beasts of burden for transportation by land and sea to the immense laboratories a\ Dayton, Ohio, and Walkerville, Canada. One of the'most striking features of the display is the reproduction of the magnificent laboratory at Day ton, Here the artist has very effec tively and impressively portrayed the popularity of Tanlac by introducing a group of people in all Walks of life/ who are looking at the Tanlac labor atory with expressions of confidence, plainly indicating their belief and faith in the nffrdicine.
