noir Success In Ruses and Are
Now Threatening Scandinavians
-41 Is Presu!m d That They N ant
to Take Ike Ahad islands.
LONDON, March 12. --Thr newest
display of German policy has come In
the term of a sudden broadside of de-
n unciation of the Scandleavlau coun-
tries by German newspapers and pub-
licists, like Count Reventlow, of the
Tagus Zeitung. From the similarity
o f the articles, It Is evident that they
are directed by one mind, which mind
apparently Is the German Covere-
r/tient.
The articles accuse the Scandina-
vian countries substantially of being
accomplices of the Entente, and warn
them that, therefore, they can expert
no consideration from Germany. The
reason for this policy Is plain to
diplomats here. Germany's dealings
with Finland thus far seem to be de-
signed to make Finland a minor Ger-
man kingdom, with the Emperor's
800. Prince Oscar, on the throne and
to make another Heligoland of the
Aland Islands.
This scheme �, a direct blow
against Sweden and, in a less degree,
against Denmark and Norway, and Is
In line with the German Emperor's
boast that the B Itih
a c lands ave been
made permanently German.

LONG STRUGGLE.
Mrs. Bradbury Cheerful and Happy AU
4 the Time Now, She Says.
"My life has just b en one long strug-
gle fur the past twenty years, and the
way I have suilrred.can't be described in
words." said Mrs. Annie Bradbury, living
at 24 Wetstey street, Toronto. recently.
"There have been many times when it
seeped like I would have to give up and
quit trying to get well.' she continued.
1'p to the time I started taking 1•anlac,
no medicine or Ueatrnent had given me
relief from my dreadful condition. 1 was
just as near a nervous wrack as a person
can be. The feast little noise would
startle me and bring on a trembling spell
and 1 would get despondent and blue and
just sit down and cry until 1 would al -
moot grow distracted. 1 couldn't sleep at
night and when morning came I'd be all
worm -out and tired until 1 just had to
force myself to keep going. I had no
appetite and my energy left me gradually
until I was so weak I could scarcely move.
My heart would &utter and act queer and
I lost weight and got so thin that my
nngs would slip from my lingers. Fifteen
years ago I was operated on, but my
condition was unchanged, and I have been
going down hill ever since until here a
while back my husband got a bottle of
Tanlac for me and 1 started taking it.
"1 never saw or bear& of anything
more wonderful than the way this Tanlac
has benefited me. My nerves are strong
and steady now and I am cheerful and
happy instead of blue and discouraged. I
have a big appetite and enjoy every
meal. My strength has increased uatit
the housework is a pleasure to me. instead
of a drudgery. 1 have already {rained ten
pounds in weight and am gaining every
day. Several of my friends are now tak-
ing Tanlac, since 1 have told them what
it has done fur me. and they as well as 1
think there' never was a medicine made
that equals Tanlac. It has done me more
good than all the medicines and treat-
ments 1 have taken in twenty years and
l'fn delighted over my imttrovement."

he was immediately counter -attacked

troops which he raided went back at
