Texas Harbors and Water-
ways Cared for in New
Army Bill
Washington.—Six hundred thousand
dollars for improvement and mainte-
nance of the Houston ship channel is
provided for in the army appropria-
tion bill reported to the house of rep-
resentatives Friday by the appropria-
tions committee. Eighty thousand dol-
lars of this sum would be spent for
improvement and the remainder for
maintenance.
The bill carries a total of $40,000,-
000 for river and harbor improvement
which, with the $54,500,000 balance
now on hand, would give the engineer-
ing corps a total of $94,500,000 for this
work during the coming fiscal year.
This amount is in addition to the river
and harbor authorization bill now
pending in congress, which authorizes
river and harbor improvements which
will cast approximately $54,000,000.
Division of the $40,000,000 fund now
sought would give a total of $4,422,500
for Texas projects, of which $2,445,000
would be for improvements and the
remainder for maintenance. The es-
timates provide $1,800,000 for improve-
ment of the Sabine-Neches waterway
and $250,000 for improvement; $500,-
000 for improvement of the Corpus
Christi channel and $465,000 for im-
provement and maintenance of the
Galveston channel. The sum of $385,-
000 is alloted to maintenance of Gal-
veston harbor; $200,000 for mainte-
nance of the Texas City channel and
$280,000 for maintenance of other Texr
as waterways.

Eight Hundred Chinese Executed.
London.—Eight hundred Chinese sol-

their barracks Christmas Day, then
led out and executed in Klagan, in
Northern China, near the great wall.

you go to sleep with perfect confidence
in the intelligence and ability of the
man at the throttle. You know that
the engineer of a passenger train is
sure to be a tried and tested employee
of years of training and experience.
You know that his eyes and his nerves
and his heart have been examined and
tested, that he does not befuddle his
brain with whisky or drugs and that
his ability to think clearly and a-Gl*
promptly in an emergency lias been
proven.
This was not always true. In tlvfe
early years of railroad building, many
accidents were due to unfit men in thtj
engine cab. But gradually it was
learned, often by costly mistakes, that
the safe and successful engineer must ,
be a man with keen and perfect vision
and with nerves and muscles always
under control.
But a new method of travel has de-
veloped in the last 20 years. Thebe are
today over 12,000,000 motor cars in this
country. Traveling as fast as the
average train, carrying every day many
times more passengers than all the
railroads put together, automobiles are
today far more dangerous to life than
railroad trains. This is shown by the
large number of people killed every
year by autos, as compared to the com-
paratively small number of lives lost
by railroad accidents.
We are just beginning to realize that
the same qualities of mind and body
are required to drive an auto as to
run a steam engine.
Before the World war, practical busi-
ness men had a marked contempt for
scientific men. They were all right in
lecture rooms and laboratories, but
they had no connection with every-day
business matters. The physical and
mental tests used in classifying and
sorting the men in the draft opened
the eyes of many captains of industry.
The other . day the management of
the Yellow Cab company asked Prof.
A. J. Snow of Northwestern university
to apply psychological tests to their
3,000 cab drivers to determine if any
of them were unsuited for work as
chauffeurs. Professor Snow used three
tests to determine the mental alert-
ness, rapidity of nerve and muscle re-*
actions and sensory acuteness of these
men. He reported that 18 per cent of
the oldest drivers in the employ of the
company were unfitted to drive cabs

V V away to a shadow, when the
color leaves your cheeks and your
poor, tired legs will hardly hold up
your weakened body it’s high time
you started taking a fine tonic-and
builder like Tanlac.
Tanlac will build you up and
make you feel that life’s worth
living. Made from roots, herbs and
bark gathered from the four corners
of the Earth and compounded
under the exclusive Tanlac for-
mula, Tanlac is just what the poor,
starved body needs.
First of all it cleanses the blood
stream and puts the digestive
organs in order. You find, after a
few days’ treatment, that you want
to eat. Pretty soon the welcome
color steals back into your cheeks
and the scales tell you that you’re
gaining weight. From then on
it’s only a short time until you’re
feeling fit as a fiddle.
Millions of men and women have
taken Tanlac with great benefit.
More than one hundred thousand
people have written us glowing
tributes to this-* wonderful tonic.

First Bottle Brought

“Pains in my side and back
caused me lots of trouble day
and night. I could hardly
walk my beat. Tanlac fixed
me up quick. I noticed the
improvement after the first
bottle.”

324 Paul Ave., Belleville, 111.
When you know it has worked
wonders for so many folks it’s folly
not to take advantage of Tanlac’s
help yourself. Don’t put it off
another day. Get a bottle at your
druggist’s now and start the good
work right away.

T^EWSPAPMf dispatches from Los
^ Angelesjstate that a beauty doctor
has disappeared following the death of
one of her patients. The “doctor” per-
formed somje pperation on the woman’s
face to re fov-e wrinkles. Unfortunate-
ly, infec on i’o’ owi?d and the opera-
tion rei; ved the atient, wrinkles and
all. ,v!
Whc the operation was we do not
know. Several methods have been in-
vented for removing wrinkles. One is
the u jection of paraffin. Paraffin has
been used in facial surgery for over
20 years. It is of great value, for in-
stance, in repairing a broken nose or
in uilding up a fallen bridge of the
nose. The melted paraffin is injected
by a syringe under the skin, filling out
the sunken space. While it is soft,
it can be molded into the exact shape
desired. Then some beauty doctor got
the bright idea, that paraffin injected
into f the cheeks would till them out
and, by stretching the skin, would pull
j out the wrinkles, just as blowing up a
j toy balloon stretches the rubber bag
and makes it smooth and round.
Pa raffin was supposed to be harmless.
Thjfe operation was only a needle prick.
M$ny women who wanted plump
clieeks without wrinkles had them
pumped full of paraffin, hoping that
t/hey’d look youthful and lovely once
ore. Since then, most of them have
een Wishing they hadn’t and trying to
fiid someone who could dig the hard-
ened wax out of their cheeks.
The trouble is that, after the wax
is injected, it hardens and the pressure
stops the blood supply. Tne cheeks
are plump; alas sometimes they are too
plump but the skin over the mass of
paraffin is bloodless and dry. It looks
like, and really is dead skin. It can
be covered with rouge and powder, but
it has no color or vitality. It is es-
pecially liable to infection, having no
resistance. The paraffin may melt and
one’s cheek run down into one’s neck,
which is most unpleasant.
Don’t be fooled by enticing adver-
tising or foolish friends. You 'can’t
buy a good complexion in a drug store
or a beauty parlor. Fresh air, pure
water, inside and out, good soap, sim-
ple food and plenty of outdoor exer-
cise and open-air sleep will bring bet-
ter results and no regrets.
Next to having wisdom yourself it is
well to profit by the wisdom of others.
