PREMIER PLEASED
WITH WAR OUTLOOK.
London, Aug. 2.—“No man should
boast until the battle is over. But
all men who know are pleased at the
way it is going.”
Premier Lloyd George thus com
mented in addressing a deputation of
200 members of the National Union
of Manufacturers, whom he met yes
terday for a discussion of after-the
war commercial problems.
“We must necessarily in whatever
policy we proclaim,” said the premier,
“keep in touch and be in complete ac
cord first with our dominions, and
second with our allies. There is a
good deal of discussion about a
league of nations. I am certainly one
of those who believe in it. But there
are two leagues of nations already in
existence—the British empire and
the great alliance against the cen
• tral powers.”
' Referring to the Paris resolutions,
he said:
“Up to the present time America
has expressed no opinion upon them,
and it is virtually important that the
policy of America and that of this
country should be in complete agree
ment on economic as well as other
’ problems. An agreement among the
' allies means that the economic fate
of the world will be in the hands of
! the great allied powers federated to
gether at present.”
Andrew Bonar Law, government
spokesman in the House of Commons,
stated in the lower house today that
German submarines were being sunk
at a far greater rate than heretofore.

ESCAPES U-BOAT
NEARLY DROWNS
IN THE OUACHITA.
Camden, Aug. 1.—Heath Horsley,
one of the survivors of the U. S. S.
Schurz, sunk several weeks ago, who
spent many hours in the ocean before
being rescued, barely escaped drown
ing at Devil’s elbow on the Ouachita
river Wednesday. Horsley was
seized with cramps and began to sink
when C. S. White plunged into the
river and rescued him.

NOTICE.
To Chairmen Local Committees,
To Arkansas Consumers of Coal:
1. The fuel situation confronting
the nation is serious. It is impera
tive that there be a co-operative dis
position on the part of steam-users
to equip their boilers for the use of
such grades of coal as may be avail
able, if the domestic consumers and
the essential industries are not to
I have a shortage of prepared sizes
during the trying days of the com
1 ing winter.
2. Loss of coal production in
many of the western states, includ
ing Arkansas, is largely attributable
to the fact that there is not now suf
ficient means for the untilization of
slack coal. The early ordering cam
paign in this state has met with a
ready response on the part of con-j
sumers, and retail dealers report they
booked sufficient orders to keep them
busy 60 days, and those who have not
placed their orders should do so now.
3. Industrial plants and the con
sumers of prepared sizes are expected
to do their full duty, and the steam
users are called upon to make pre- j
parations for the use of more slack,
or the whole system of production
and distribution will be badly crip
pled.
4. It is urged upon the owners of j
steam plants in Arkansas, as a pa- -
triotic duty, that they proceed to!
equip their boilers with special j
grates and blowers to enable them ^
to burn and utilize approximately;
one hundred and fifty thousand tons ^
of Anthracite slack that for the pres- j
ent, tfiere is no market, and place !
their orders to the extent of their j
storage capacity.
6. This applies especially to An- j
thraci$e slack. The changes in fire J
box equipment can be made at a
comparatively small cost and it will,1
in the end, prove to be more econom- j
ical, on account of the lower cost of j
slack, and at the same time, will aid j
jn the production of Anthracite coal.
that is so badly needed.
6. Get ready to burn more slack
and keep the miners busy.

PARKER CONVINCED
BY HIS EXPERIENCE
“I Can Recommend Tanlac In the
Highest Terms,” Says Well
Known Alabama Dentist—
Declares He Is W7ell Man.
“I am firmly convinced from my
own experience with Tanlac, that it
will do all people claim for it, as I
am a well man now, after suffering
for twelve years until I took Tan
lac,” is the frank statement of Dr.
S. J. Parker, a well known dentist
of Roanoke, Alabama. I
*‘I had a bad form of stomach trou
ble, which distressed me continually
for nil these years,” he continued. 'itaB
“Terrible headaches would come on J
me frequently as a result of a nause
ated and upset stomach and tfould 1
last for hours. These attacks -would 'jJi |
come as often as two and three times gsjjl
a week. I lost weight rapidly and, J
although I tried several of the most
approved remedies for thia trouble, £
it resisted treatment and I continued
to go down hill. 1
“I read about what Tanlac was do- -|9
ing everywhere, and though I was
skeptical about proprietary -medi
cines, I gave it a trial. I hadn’t fin
ished the first bottle until I saw fav
orable results, and I have coh||0ued .,9
to improve unt" my stom&Jp Is .-:;9
completely set in order and the oth- 4 -|9|
er conditions arising from it have
been entirely relieved. I am a well | g9
man now, and I can recommend Taft
lac in the highest terms.” 9
