War Cost in 54 Days.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25—Although
the expenditures of the United States
are far greater than those of any belli
gerent. the end of the war will find
this country in a better position than
any other nation.
Representative Rainey of Illinois
said: "The longer the was lasts, the
I better does the position of theUnlted
j states become as compared with other
nations."
With a hanking system that abso
lutely insures against panic, with our
securities stabilized by the war fin
ance corporation act and with a gold
cover of 67 per cent—a greater gold
cover than any nation has ever had
in the world's history—-the conclusion
of peace will see this country In the
vived, Willi I'atrhilic Meetings All
Over the C'ouutry.
j
P°^. ition of the worlds most powerful
cerned," Rainey said.
"At the bottom of it all," he said,|
"was the fact that the daily pérennité
income of the population is $1.05,while
the per capita expenditure is only 28
cents. Great Britain's per capita in
come is 70 cents and her per capita
expenditure on both sides during the
France's per capita income is 51 cents
and her expenditures 50 cents. Ger
many has a per canita income of 44
cents and an expenditure of 40 cents.
Up to this time, Rainey said, the war
has cost $122,000,000,000, of which total
the allies have spent $82,000.000,000.
Eacli 54 days an amount equal to the
expenditure on hotli sides during the
four years of the Civil war is being
spent. The total cost of the war is
greater than the aggregate cost of all
wars of which- anything is known
since the world began.

Captain F. S. Fall}. ex-I'assenger
Agent Northern I'aeiflc. Discusses
Former Trouilles.
Nearly everybody in Knoxville,
Tenn., especially railroad people,
know Captain F. S. Patty, for twelve
years district passenger agent for the
Northern Pacific railroad, with local
offices in Chattanooga and general
offices In St. Paul, Minn.
On account of generally failing
health Captain Patty was forced to
discontinue active work and for the
past few years has been making his
home in Knoxville, where he num
bers his friends by his acquaintances.
He is a kind, genial gentleman of 'he
{old school, and is beloved by all who
know him. The following Interesting
statement was made by him in per
son to the Tanlac representative:
"I am 69 years old and always en
joyed good health up to about six
years ago, when I suffered a nervous
break down and my general health
gradually failed me. My principal
trouble «was indigestion and catarrh,
but my whole system seemed to be out
of shape. My condition finally got so
bad I couldn't sleep at night and al
ways after eating I would suffer so
from indigestion and heartburn that I
felt just like there was a coal of firo
in my stomach. My hearing and vi
sion were also affected. I consulted
several doctors here in Knoxville and
other cities and they helped me con
siderably and I finally got so I could
go around, but some how I just
couldn't feel right and could not sleep
at night, which made me awfully ner
vous and nothing I would eat seemed
to agree with me.
"I began reading about this Tan
lac when you first came here, out did
not decide to try the medicine until 1
talked with a friend of mine who had
actually used it. He said it was the
best thing he had ever taken, and
that was sufficient proof for me.
"1 have just finished the first bot
tle and came here this morning, not
only to buy the second bottle, but to
tell you just what It has done for mo.
I began enjoying my meals from the
first few drops/ My nervousness is
gone and I can sleep like a child and
always wake up in tjie morning ready
for breakfast and feeling refreshed. I
am very fond of onions, but was al
most afraid to eat them, because they
always disagreed with me so; I could
taste them for hours afterwards. I
ate one for dinner the other day and
it agreed with me perfectly, and I felt
no bad after effects whatsoever. I
tell you I am beginning to feel like a
different man and am always going
to keep this Tanlac on hand. It has
done me more good than anything else
in the medicine line I have ever tak
en. I certainly do recommend it to
my friends. It is really remarkable."

The time has arrived for the American
people to answer the boast that any

Turning the vitriol upon the trans

"It would be amusing if the situation
were less tragic to note the awakening
of those responsible for the conduct of
