the statesmen arrived at the meeting
place In heavy wraps. The usual Sun-
day calor across the Seine was Inter-

"FLU" CASES IN MONTH.
Dr. J. W. Sandlot Has Pound Testae to
Be Great Resale for His Patients.
The iolk)wing letter from Dr. J. W.
Sandlin, one of (he most prominent physi-
cuns of Southern Texas, has been re-
ceived at the Tanlac office and gives in-
disputable evidence as to the value of
Tanlac as a reconstructive tonic for per-
sists oho are recuperating from the after
effects ol Spanish influenza. His letter
follows:
Humble, Texas, Nov. 5. 1918.
"Dear Su, -Just a few lines in reference
to Tanlac. I have found your preparation
to be a wonderful reconstructive tonic,
mrd in my opinion it has no equal in its
lire. I have found it to be the best tonic
to be had t t build up my patten s who
ban had Spanish influenza. i have
treated within the past month about 1400
cases, and have never been able to get
sufficient Tanlac to supply our people.
Yours very� truly,
SA
(Signed) DR. J. W. NULIN "
Sandlin not only enjoys a very
large practice as a physician, but he is
also a man of wide influence and ranks an
a leading citizen of the enterpr sing htt,e
city of Humble, Texas.
As a practising physician of sixteen
year experience Dr. Sandlin was quick
to recognize the superior tonic propel ties
of Tanlac over other remedies and un-
hesitatingly and voluntarily gave Tan': c
his unqualified endorsement.
Aithoxgth the wtfurnza epidemic greatly
subsided for a short time, it is today
breaking out anew in its very worst form
from practically one end of the y6untry to
the other and continues to un its vic-
tims by the thousands.-- -
According t i late rep.rts, over 350,000
people have already died from the disease.
Persons who have had infutnza are
oftentimes lett in a very weakened run-
down Condition and unless the gniktest
care is taken, both as to habits and diet,
serious complications are apt to follow.
I( you are in [lis condition nothing or,
earth will build you up and strengthen
you like Tanlac, as is clearly proven by
tete experitnce of Dr. Sandlin and other
well known physicians who are using it
so successfully in their daily protect.
As a reconstructive tonic and body-
builder. Tanlac is we hout an equal and
contains the very elements needed by the
seArm to restore you to your normal
strength and weight and to fortify your
..tem against attack.
la connection ;kith the Tanlac treat-
ment it is necessary to keep the bowels
open by taking Tanlac Laxative Tablets
samples of which are included with every
bottle of Tanlac.

D,.4,'a, MacDonald Returns.
Vancouver. Jan. 7. -Atter a twelve
months' tour through china. Japan and
the East, Dr. J. A. MacDonald has
arrived in'Vancouver on his way home
Wherever he -went Dr. MacDonald was
plied with questions as to the possibilities
of Canada, and he is firmly convinced
that. -now that the war is over, trade
should grow and become profitable to
both sides if wisely and sanely con-
ducted."
"Russia is a mess," was Dr. Mac -
Donald's terse summing up of the
Russian situation. He could see no way
of solving the problems which are caus-
ing such conflict in the land. "There is
a good deal of confusion in the East
generally." was his verdict.
In response to an invitation from the
Imperial University, Tokio, Dr. Mac-
Donald gave a series of lectures. and it
is passible he will return next year 0
Japan to give further lectures.
Canada never had a tetter chance to
develop the sheep industry. Mutton and
wool are both in great demand and will
continue to be while the live stock short-
age of food prevails.
Canadian women are right behind the
Canadian troops in the trenches. Women
nurses are now installed in hospitals 8 miles
in the rear of the actual fighting line.
Many of our Canadian women are un-
able to take up the duties of nursing at
the front, but they should know how to
take care of their own at home and for
this purpose no better book was ever
printed than the Medical Adviser --a book
containing 1,008 pages, and hound in cloth,
with chapter,' on Eintt Aid. Bandaging

FIRST PEACE SESSION.
Post-war Problem. to Be Discussed
at Ottawa.
OTTAWA, Jan. 14. -Ther opening
of the second 'session of the thir-
teenth Parliament on February '20,
after a recess of 273 days, is looked
forward to dere with interest and not
• little curiosity - Interest In the
leglslatitr program, which will deal
largely with post-war problems. and
curiosity as to the attitude likely to
be taken by members of the House
of Commons.
Already much has been accom-
plished by the Government in the
creation of machinery for the demo-
bilization of the Canadla■ Expedi-
tionary Force, the re-atacorption of
Its membeis Into civil lite, the em-
ployment of labor, the malntenan--e
of Industrial output and the expan-
sion of foreign trade. The measures
so tar taken will naturally come un-
der discussion in Parliament, parti-
cularly as legislation will be requir-
ed to continue in operation after the
signing of the peace treaty of cer-
tain of them which were enacted by
order -in -Council under the War
Measures Act. Thus, for instance,
legislation may be required in con-
nection with the Government's
scheme whereby a fund of 25,000,-
000 has been created to assist pro-
vinclal Governments and municipali-
ties to promote construction of
workingmen's houses of modern
type. .
Highway legislation will likely be
introduced. At a previous session a
bill was presented providing for an
expenditure of 810,000,000 on high-
way construction and improvements.
It was rejected by the Senate largely
because t f opposition to the proposed
method of administering the appro-
priation. Highway improvement,
however, was one of the subjects
considered at the last conference be-
tween members of the Federal Gov-
ernment and the Provincial Pritne
Ministers. Subsequently, the Dont-
Inion Government appointed A. W.
Campbell, formerly Deputy Minister
of Railways, who had had long ex-
perience In dealing with road con-
struction and improvement, as De-
puty Minister of Public Works for
Ontario, a commissioner to consider
what function the federal authority
should exercise in connection with
the betterman of highways. Upon
Mr. Campbell's report. will be based

the conflicting claims for recognition
of the Polish National Cotutmittee in
Paris, headed by R. V. Dmdwakl, on
the one hand, and the present• de
facto Government at Warsaw under
Gen. Plleudekl. This Government
wag the creation of the Polish people
themselves, while the Polish National
Committee has been largely support-
ed by the Poles in America and has
among Its members some of the
most eminent Polish leaders.
M. Dmowekf contends that the
Warsaw Government is not repfesen-
'ative, because It inherits its powers
from the Germans and 1s exclusively
Socialistic and popularietic. Gen.
Plleudekl charges that the other par-
ty is reactionary, anti-Semitic asd
unacceptable to the people at large.
The French. Government ham refue-
1 ed to recognise the Warsaw Govern -
!Lent until 1t reaches an agreement
l with the National Committee. in or-
der to avoid the impression that the
Entente Is endeavoring to Impose a
Government on Poland, from the out-
side, 1t is believed that it may be
necessary to await the approaching
elections in January to demonstrate
which party ham behind It a majority
of the Polish people.
One factor which may hasten
action by the Entente Government.,
It Is pointed out, is the Impending
danger of an attack by the Poles up-
on Eastern Germany In advance of
the determination of title to that sec-
tion of German Poland.
