"France and Great Britain have made it plain again and again that they expect air-craft and aviators to be one of America's greatest contribu tions to success in the war," said Howard E. Coffin, chairman of the board, tonight. "The government can now say that it is actually embarked upon the task of overcoming its pres ent deficiency in military aviation. We believe that the outlook promises a quick development of the latest air resources of America which may be unprecedented in military history of the world."

"For months I was in a broken down condition and just lay around the house, unable to do anything, I was so weak and nervous. I was past going for a long time and I spent a lot of time in bed or in a chair," said Mrs. M. D. Rowers, of Williams ton, S. C., in her statement endors ing Tanlac. "I had been under treat ment off and on all the timne, but I failed to improve until I began tak ing Tanlac. Really, I steadily got worse until I began taking Tanlac. For ten years my health had been going down hill. My stomach was in an awful condition and I suffered ter ribly with indigestion. "But since taking Tanlac I feel fine. I took eleven bottles and I'm doing all my house work now and when night comes I still feel strong and good. The Tanlac just worked a miracle for me, I think, and one who has never been as sick as I was for such a long time canont understand just what I suffered. It is the only medicine that ever helped me, and I had been sickly for ten years. I am glad to recommend Tanlac, too, for I think. it is the finest there has ever been."

Approximately 140,000 will be national guardsmen. The guai' regiment will be given a short period of intensive training at their state camps and the federal divisional encampments, and then will be sent to France to complete their preparation behind the lines as an nounced by the International News Service last ,night. The entire com mand will be under Major General John J. Pershing. The sending of the guardsmen abroad is in answer to the appeal of France for man-power. The pressing necessity for every soldier available at the front if Germany is to be de feated has been made clear to Presi dent Wilson by Marshal Joffre and others. The decision to send the guardsmen abroad was taken, it is stated, because the majority of thei alread yhave had training on the bor dler, wvhile the regular army is needed to train the 500,000 selective con-I scripts wvho will be ordered out early in September. Five D~ivisions. Present plans of the general staff call fo'r the sending of five dlivisions. of national guardsmen to France by the end of September. The movement is expected to begin in August. The dlivisions will be madIe up of regiments which shlowedI the best con (dition while on the border. Illinois and Newv York will be expectedl to supplly practically their whole strength, it is said. Ohio and Ken tucky will be called upon for a hepvy dlraft. An A merican dIivision numbers ap proximately 28,000. This would make the total force of guardsmen sent ab~roadI 14'0,000.

The LEXINGTON Clubster is a hospitable 'car.. It is roomy and comfortable, yet all of the occupants are brought into one delightful company without that sense of separation which is unavoidable in any touring car. The Moore Multiple Exhaust System, the most valuable single feature offered by any car made today, is'an added reason for the LEXINGTON Clubster. It means 22.8% more usable power with less gasoline, increased hill climbing ability, less gear changing,- more flexible power, less carbon trouble, and, because power is obtained at lower engine speeds, less vibration and wear and tear on engine and car. LEXINGTON beauty of line and finish are only exceeded by LEXINGTON performance. - You will be completely satisfied with your LEXINGTOIJ, and not only satisfied but delighted.
