Mrs. Gross Praises Tanlac for
Overcoming Stomach Trouble
of Long Standing—Says
Results Are Priceless.
“Before I took Tanlnc I only
weighed ninety-four pounds and
scarcely had strength to sweep the
floor or make the beds; but now I
weigh one hundred and thirty-two and
am as healthy and happy as cun be.”
This remarkable statement was made,
recently, by Mrs. Mabel Gross, 1137
Aldrich St., X., Minneapolis, Minn.
“For nearly two years I had been In
a seriously weakened condition, and
suffered nearly all the time from head
ache and backache. My nerves were
beyond my control and I was terribly
dizzy. I,couldn’t half sleep and my
stomach was so out of order that even
the sight of food nauseated me.
“The benefits I have received from
Tanlac are priceless. I am now a per
fectly well woman and my friends
often speak of how healthy I look. I
certainly have a great deal to praise
Tanlac for. Health Is worth every
thing, and that Is what Tanlac has
meant to me.”
Tanlac Is for sale by all good drug
gists. Over 35 million bottles sold. —

WEEKLY RESUME OF THE
MINNESOTA LEGISLATURE
EIGHT MILLIONS ASKED
Largest Appropriation Bill of Present
Legislative Session Introduced in
Senate.
St. Paul —The first large appropri
ation bill of the present session of
the state legislature has made its ap
pearance. It was introduced by the
senate finance committee and provides
$8,338,650 for state institutions under
the board of control.
Senator A. J. Rockne explained that
this figure Is $725,000 more than the
legislature allowed two years ago, but
about $1,000,000 less than the board
of control requested. The Increase is
made necessary by the growth in
population of the institutions. Some
large allowances for maintenance are
made and several necessary buildings
to house inmates arp provided for.
‘ PROPOSED LEGISLATION.
The new public domain bill has
been drawn by the special house
economy committee. It creates three
commissioners at $4,000 a year each,
heading departments under which are
grouped a number of activities.
Representative Mac Lean of Henne
pin county is author of a bill making
the giving or selling of liquor that
causes death murder in the third de
gree, regardless of whether it was
given or sold with Intent to do harm,
and regardless of whether the giver
or seller knew the liquor to be poison
ous.

A record for the Minnesota Legis
lature for the number of bills Intro
duced In any one day was set when
the House of Representatives received
184 measures —the avalanche marking
the end of the bill-filing period with
out suspension of rules. The record
for Introduction of bills In a single
flay was set some years ago at 130,
and had never been topped.. The bills
took two hours’ time of the House and
kept a force of stenographers and
clerks busy until early morning. House
members will have until March 26 to
Introduce bills but must obtain con
sent of two-thirds of the members to
do so.

Representative Darby, chairman of
the house temperance committee, will
put out a bill making drastic amend
ments to the state prohibition laws.
The bill will have the approval of the
committee. Minnesota’s dry laws are
much more stringent than the federal
laws and the laws in most other states
on the subject, but the committee
thinks there is room for improvement.
The bill will add several sweeping
provisions, one of the chief of which
will be a provision under which half
the fines assessed against wet cul
prits will be put into a separate fund
to finance stricter prohibition enforce
ment.

Drivers of vehicles must come to a
full stop at dangerous railroad cross
ings, before proceeding, under terms
of Senator A. H. Brldgeman’s bill rec
ommended for passage by the senate
committee on railroads. The measure
also provides that the railroad and
warehouse commission shall designate
dangerous crossings by orderipg erec
tion and maintenance of adequate stop
signs, with additional dangerous ap
proach signs at specified distances
from the crossings. A subcommittee
of four will consider the law in re
gard to a proposed bill prohibiting re
moval of railroad division points with
out first obtaining consent from the
railroad and warehouse commission.
• « • •
Indefinite postponement was the
verdict of the house committee on
taxes on the bill by several house au
thors, revising the scheme of tax
valuation. The bill is bqgked by C. J.
Buell representing-the Minnesota Tax
Reform association. It would reduce
the valuation on structures from 40 to
25 per cent, and on platted land it
would raise the rate f*om 40 to 60 per
cent.

To give some 90 signers of Repre
sentative L. C. Spooner’s bill chang
ing the sales system on farm machin
ery and twine made at the state pris
on, an opportunity to present their ar
guments, a public hearing is scheduled
in the senate public institutions and
buildings committee room. R. W.
Wheelock, chairman of the state
board of control, and M. C. McMillan,
mechanical superintendent at the
prison, appeared against the bill, say
ing It greatly yould raise present
prices and make it impossible to mar
ket their products without danger to
law violations. As none of the spon
sors of the bill were present, it was
decided to notify them and have a
hearing before taking final action.
Senator Boylan has given formal
notice that he will move that the sen
ate fix a special order for debate and
passage of the full crew bill, which
is backed by the railroad brotherhoods
and labor unions generally. The bill
has also been passed upon
by the house committee on railroads.
The move of Boylan means that the
first action on the bill be taken in the
senate, where it is expected to pass.
The house passed the bill two, ye«rs
ago and is expected to so again
this year. Two years ago the meas
ure died in the senate.

ASK REGENTS CHANGE
Measure Provides for One Member
From Each Congressional
District.
St. Paul —‘The House of Represen
tatives by a vote of 90 to 21 passed
a bill to abolish the present board
of regents of the university and pro
vide for the appointment of an en
tirely new board made up cf one
member from each congressional dis
trict.
The passed the Bonniwell bill,
already passed by the Senate, calling
for representation on the board by
congressional districts, after amend
ing it to make the changes immedi
ately. The House amendment pro
vides that the terms of the present
members shall all expire May 1 and
that before April 15 the governor is
to appoint the new board. The data
for appointment is fixed in order to
give the Senate now sitting an oppor
tunity to act on confirmations beforo
the Legislature adjourns April 19.
The passage of the Senate bill in
amended form came without any de
bate whatsoever. The Senate had<
passed the Bonniwell bill under sus
pension of the rules. That measure
simply provided that upon the expir
ation of the terms of the present
members the governor should appoint
according to districts.
The bill In its amended form must
now go back to the Senate for fur
ther action. If the Senate refuses to
concur in the changes the matter will
have to be threshed put in confer
ence.
The original Waldal bill terminated
the terms of ’ four members of the
board, namely, Pierce Butler of St.
Paul and Fred B. Snyder, George H.
Partridge and Mrs. Frank M. Warren
of Minneapolis. The amended Bon
niwell bill simply wipes out the mi
tire present board and provides for
an entirely new deal.
The vote on the Bonniwell bill as
amended by the House, follows:
BANK DEPOSIT BILL BURIED
Senate Action Kills Issue for Current
Session—Debate Brief.
St. Paul —By a vote of 19 to 45 the
senate buried the bank deposit guar
anty bill, adopting the report of a ma.
Jority of the banking committee for
Indefinite postponement of the meas
ure.
The debate was brief because the
fate of the bill already had been deter
mined in the house. The vote of the
senate kills the issue for the current
session.
When the committee report came
in Senator C. A. Lund, Otter Tail
county, one of the authors of the sen
ate bill, moved that a substitute bill
be placed on general orders. Later
he sent lip a minority report as a*
member of the banking committee and
moved its adoption.
Mr. Lund declared there is a gen
eral demand for this legislation, cit
ing action of the farm bureau and
other organizations.
LEGISLATIVE SIDELIGHTS.
J. E. Stevens, representative, Min
neapolis, introduced a bill providing
that political party committees have
the right to recommend the election

Alleged practices of coal dealers Ip
selling watered coke are hit in a bill
introduced by Representative George
Rodenberg in the house. The bill re
quires that coal dealers remove all
foreign substances in coke shipments.
Representative Rodenberg is introduc
ing a bill at the behest of the Minne
sota department of weights and meas
ures. which has received fhany com
plaints of coke being watered. Many
people after receiving a load of
coke, according to the weights and
measures department, have found
their basements flooded with watez.
This, Mr. Rodenberg said, is evidence
that the companies are selling short
weight coke, and are making up the
difference between the actual weight
of the coke and the requirea tonnage
weight by filling up loads with for
eign substances or wetting it. ,

Senator NordHn of Ramsey county
has introduced a drastic bill to curb
the drug evil in Minnesota. The bill,
if passed, would bring about the ar
rest of drug addicts and their force
able cure. Under the plan, on affidav
it of the police or any citizen stating
that a certain person is an habitual
user of drugs, the district could would
summon such person before it. If the
.prisoner denied he was an addict, evi
dence would be taken as in any crim
inal case, fend should it be proved
that the defendant is guilty of habit
ual use of drugs, the court would com
pel him to take a cure, either at a
private sanitarium, approved by the
court, or at a public institution. To
refuse to appear for examination af
ter an affidavit charging use of drugs
is filed would be contempt of court
with severe penalties attached.
The house rules committee has rec
ommended, and tl\e house has passed
the resolution of Representative Sal
monson for an official investigation by
a special committee into charges of
wrongdoing and alleged graft by Btate

WHY TAKE
LAXATIVES?
Discovery by Science Hae
Replaced Them.
Pills and salts give temporary relief
from constipation only at the expense
of permanent injury, says an eminent
authority.
Science has found a newer, better
way—a means as simple as Nature it
self.
In perfect health a natural lubricant
keeps the food waste soft and moving.
But when constipation exists this
natural lubricant is not sufficient.
Doctors prescribe N’ujol because it
acts like*, this natural lubricant and
thus secures regular bowel movements
by Nature’s own method —lubrication.
As Nujol is not a medicine or laxa
tive, it cannot gripe and, like pure
water, it Is harmless and pleasant.
Nujol Is used in leading hospitals.
