"MONEY COULDN’T BUY THE
GOOD IT DID ME,” SAYS
HON.A.R.ANDERSON
"Money could not buy the good Tun
isia has done me. and I gladly recom
ment it for what it has done in my
case,” said Hon. Archie It. Anderson,
of Houston, Texas. Kx-Sherlff of Har
ris County', recently.
Mr. Anderson Is unquestionably,
not only one of the best known, but
one of the most popular men who ever
held public office In the state of Texas.
After serving as Deputy Sheriff of
Harris County for twelve years. Mr. !
Anderson was elected Chief of Police
of the city of Houston. He had oc
cupied this office only a short time
when the Sheriff of Harris County
died. Mr. Anderson’s friends per
suaded him to make the race for the
unexpired term of Sheriff to which he
was easily elected. He was honored
with re-election seven different times
and served the people in this important
office for fifteen consecutive years.
Then Mr. Anderson declined re-elec
tion and retired to private life. He
has cast his lot among the people of
Houston and is a large property own
er and foremost citizen of that inter
esting and prosperous city.
"I was in a run-down condition.”
continued Mr. Anderson, "and had no
appetite at all. I could hardly sleep
at night and never felt like getting up
in the mornings, I was so tired. I
had the worst form of indigestion, suf
fered all the time from gas on ray
stomach and was continually belching
up undigested food. I had to take my
coffee without sugar, as when I drank
it with sugar, I would Just belch for
hours. I would bloat and swell up
like 1 was poisoned and suffered with
neuralgic pains of the worst sort, and
nothing seemed to help me only in a
temporary way. 1 just can’t tell you
how I did suffer for the past four year*
and up to the time I began taking
Tanlac. a few weeks ago.
"When I read the testimonials of
some who had been relieved of trou
bles like mine I Just felt like I couldn’t
iikiko a mrstnke oy taking Tanlac and
it has done even more for me than i
had expected. I began to feel better
after my first bottle and hnye just now
started on my third and I’m a different
man already. I sleep like a log now
and eat just any and everything T
want without the slightest discomfort
afterwards. I am glad to endorse
Tanlac because it does the work and
I’m telling all my friends just what
I’m tolling you. I never felt better
in my life than 1 do since taking Tan
lac. I am willing for you to publish
my statement and let every suffering
person who may wish, benefit by my
experience with this great medicine."

MEXICO REJECTS AMERICAN
DEMANDS FOR RELEASE OF
CAPTURED U S CONSUL
MEXICO CITY, Nov. 27—The gov
ernment last night informally an
nounced that it Is Impossible for Mex
ico to accede to the request or the
I'nited States for the release of Amer
ican consular agent Jenkins, whose re
cent capture by bandits in the vicinity
nf I’ueblo has been the subject of dip
lomatic discussions recently. The
government holds that the request of
the I'nited States cannot be acceded
to by Mexico on technical grounds. It
is claimed that the demand that Mex
ico assume the burden of freeing Jen
kins is based on no legal foundation
nor does it possess a foundation in any
principle of international law. The
note further explains the belief of the
Mexican government that the relations
of friendship between Mexico and the
I'nited States cannot he unfavorably

take steps looking to Jenkins’ release

WASH.. Nov. 27—Mexico's answer
to the demand of the United States for

answer today, government officials said
America’s next step in the exchange
of notes with Mexico over the case will
probably be a demand that the Carran
za government supply more complete
details of the charges against Jenkins
and permit a first hand investigation

understood that the State Department
is already at work on a communica
tion of this character.

NO GOOD OBJECT SERVED IN
RETAINING TROOPS AT
FORT DAVIS.
'I’liut there is no good object served
Michael results in a saving- to the
sons set forth by the Adjutant (Jen
oral's office for the abandonment of
Ft. Davis in a letter returned by Ad
jutant General l\ C. Harris to Con
gressman Julius Kahn, who recently
took tip the matter of the closing of
Ft. Davis with the War Department
at the request of Mr. Arnold I,. Gle
bes. of San Francisco.
■Mr. Inches, at the request of Kris
ten Brothers, proprietors of the Em
porium, addressed a communication
to Congressman Kahn August 25 pro
testing against the abandonment of
the post and urging him to exert bis
influence toward its retention as a
military station. The letter was re
ferred to the Adjutant General's office
by the California representative and
elicited a reply to the. above effect.
The communication, dated Septem
ber 8, asserts that Ft. Davis was
abandoned after careful consideration
and continues as follows:
"There are two posts near Nome—
>t. Michael and Ft. Davis. The t
were formerly garrisoned by one com
pany, half at each post. These posts
are very expensive to keep up, espec
ially Ft. Davis, where the fuel alone
cost $1,000 a year per man; forage for
each horse $1.00 and each dog 40
cents per day. The abandonment of
Ft. Davis and concentration at St.
Michael results In a saving of from
$75,000 to $100,000 per year.”
General Harris then proceeds to
give us the following unflattering
summary of the way the War Depart
ment sizes up our industrious burg
from the distance of Washington, D.
C., apparently without reflecting on
the fact that whatever lack of import
ance Nome possesses, it Is, neverthe
less. an Infinitely more important
.point than St. Michael and is so
| recognized everywhere outside of the
War Department.
“There Is no good object served."
he says, “by keeping these troops at
Ft. Davis. The pest Is three and a
half miles from Nome and when es
tablished. Nome was an important
mining center and a town of quite a
large population, more or less turbu
lent. That is much changed now.
The population is less than 500 in
winter and quiet and orderly. The
civil authorities need no support.”
PIONEER MINING COMPANY
ADOPTS NOVEL PLAN
As u means of encouraging Its ol<l
employees to stay with the country
during the winter period, the Pioneer
Alining Company has evolved a novel
plan whereby its employees who re
main in are guaranteed a bonus pay
ment of $25 per month, during the
seven months of the winter period.
Under the plan the eligible employees
are given five days work e. eh month
at $5 per diem. If the company has
no work to perform the men on the
list are granted the allowance just th- j
tame. There are no strings on tin
men during the winter and they are ia |
no way hound to the company, hence i
may work for others at will and still
receive the bonus as long as they put
in tlie required five days time with
the company.
It is expected, however, that the
men will resume steady work for the
company during the following spring
ind summer.
In discussing the plan. Manager
Louis Stevenson said the company ex
pects in this manner to be of some as
sistant''* to its summer employees who
stay in during the winter and also in
sure itself a supply of competent help
when the early spring operations are
commenced. About twenty five of the
older employees of the company are on
the bonus roll this winter. The work
to be done during the winter is usually
of light character and frequently there
is little or nothing to be done for long
periods. The plan is not based on
the volume of labor performed, how
ever. and the bonus will be paid re
gardless of whether the men are em
ployed or not. The plan was evolved
by President Jafet Lindeberg during
the summer and is expected to be of
benefit to all concerned.

The merchant who sp< mis--wisely—2 percent of his gross revenues
tor advertising is able to sell his goods more cheaply than is the
merchant who spends- equally wisely—but 1 percent of his gr-'ss
revenue for advertising.
The percent of gross revenues spent by successful merchants for
advertising varies from one percent to six percent. For limited
periods, while getting established in a new location, adding . sw lines of
goods, etc., merchants find it profitable—in fact NECESSAltY
to spend as much as ten and fifteen percent for advertising.
Under normal conditions the average, so far as any facts have been
disclosed, would seem to be a little less than three percent. Some
investigators say two percent.
In cities where the expenditure for store advertising is as low. on
an average, as one and a half percent, the door is left wide open for
successful competition. The merchant who invades such a field
and spends twice or three times that margin for advertising cun
The merchant who argues that it would be necessary for him,

not understand the economic value of advertising—which, by speed

Adequate advertising, carrying real information about goods, is
the guarantee to the customer of protection from high prices and from
