AERIAL SERVICE
BIG UNDERTAKING,
Big Problems Loom Up As
Liverpool-New York Line
is Planned
London, Oct. 20. The proposed |
Liverpool-Australia and Liverpool- j
>i*W York air service will be an enor- I
mous undertaking. The problem of J
supplying the necessary dirigible |
airships is but one of the items to i
be considered. They cost about $3.- •
750,000 each to construct. At least j
six of these huge crnft will be neces
snry to maintain these two .services .
with any degree of regularity.
There are also to be considered )
the problems of suitable, landing
grounds and mooring-posts; the in
tention of the Great Northern Aerial
Syndicate being that aerodromes
will be provided at the more im
portant stations while mooring posts
will serve as second-class stops of
halts.
Aerodromes for dirigibles are re
quired only at every 2,000 miles and
it is now possible for an airship to
be moored to or released from a
mooring tower in any wind up to
60 miles an hour; yet the total finan
cial backing considered necessary
for such un undertaking is in the
neighborhood of $10,000,000. •
The mooriafc out station for air-
Ships which is in the form of a high
tower enclosing an elevator shaft by
which passengers and cargo will be
taken up and down from the ground
is over 150 feet high. With a re
volving head the airship can be
rigidly attached to this tower by
the nose, will ride clear of fhe
ground in all weathers, and be able
to swing with the diioction of the .
wind.
Each of these towers will be pro
vided with a liauling-in winch and
a rope by which the airship will
be hauled up to the mooring post;
also a supply base of hydrogen, fuel
and water ballast.

REGAINED LOST GRIP
' "1 have regained a firm grip on
health," said James McNally, .702 i
Belgrade St., Pliila., a P. R. T. con- j
•luctor . "Catarrh of the stomach !
caused me a lot of suffering before '
Tanlac rel'eved me. My stomach |
became inflamed, food would not
itlgest but would form gas and poi
sons. I now have a keen appetite,
my food digests right I sleep ele
gar/tly and get up with a clear head
and throat. I actually feel 100 per
ii?nt. better —thanks to Tanlac."
Catarrh is usually detected by such
common symptoms as droppings in
the throat, frequent sneezing, bad
breath, coughing of mucus, head
aches, watery eyes, imperfect diges
tion, gastritis, sniffling and fullness |
in the head. Tanlac was designed
to combat Catarrh ami to bring
about an astonishing change In the

Kishinev, Bossarabia, Oct. 20.
The lepers of Broasas saw their first
Americans, smoked their first Amer

met them at. the gate did not deter
the Americans, who introduced
themselves to the aged nuns in at

the distribution of t'*- American
supplies from a Red Cross automo
bile.
With nothing but their eyes show
ing through slits in their all-en
veloping gowns, the lepers' Watched
the proceedings at a respectful dis
tance. Surgical dressings, antisep
tics, bandages, American canned
goods, several dozen shirts, pajamas
j and suits of underclothing with an
assortment of shoes were spread be
fore them.
"Which are the men?" Major
Spratt asked the Mother Superior.
A group of the shrouded figures
moved forward.
"Do you men smoke?" lie asked
them through an interpreter.
An eager chorus came from be
neath the hoods.
"Then here you are! Light up!"
And Major Spratt passed around a
box of Hayanas of his own stock.
"And here's a box of Bucharest
