MR.. SEAvERS
GAINS 15 Lbs
"FGUR GOOD DOCTORS FAILED
TO DO NE ANY GOOD" HE
SAYS.

81 am now on my fourth bottle o
Tanlac and have gained fifteeI
pounds in four weeks" writes Mr.
Samuel Seavers, wei known citi
zen of LaFollette, Tennessee. Mr.
Seavers continues: Il have been sicl
for over two years, and have beer
under four good doctors, but it seems
they could not do m eany good
saw Tanlac recommended SO highly
in the paper and heard so much talk
about it here in LaFollette, that
decided to try a bottle, and / got more
relief on of this one bottle than
have had in months. / began to i'm
prove from the very first and have
gained rapidly in weight and strength
ever since. My stomach has bother
ed m efor over two years, but | have
found a cure at last"
Gentlemen, | wish / could explain
how much better I feel. I have got
ten so / can eat anything / want,
and / feel many years younger, /
feel that / ought to thank God for
what this medicine has done for me.
/ will say to every one who suffers
from stomach trouble or Indigestion
as | did, take Tanlac and be cured,
I have already told many of my
friends about this medicine"
OF all the distressing conditions
that afflict humanity, chronic dyspep
sia such as Mr.. Seaver's evidently
suffered from, is probably the most
prevalent, said Mr.. G. F. Willis, who
is personally experimenting the in
PRODUCTION of Tanlac in this city.
"Its causes and characteristics, he
continued, "are diverse. The most
skilled specialists have been unable
to cope successfully wit hthis almost
universal malady, but mother nature
herself with, the aid of that which
is deemed the best skill in chemis-
try, has compounded in her wonder
full laboratory, the most rational and
satisfying remedy ever discovered for
this ailment, as has been so convin-
cingly and conclusively proven by the
thousands who have testified to its
wonderful merit.
Hours might be consumed in de-
scribing the suffering mentally and
bodily of the victims of chronic dys-
pepsia and their failure to hereto
fore get relief. A morbid unreal
whimsical and melancholy condition
Of the mind, aside from the nervous
physical suffering, is the usual condi-
ton of the average dyspeptic and life
seems scarcely worth living. AS has
been stated, Tanlac instantly corrects
this distressing condition and makes
you feel like old fashioned people
sturdy and we'll"
The price of Tanlac is $1.00 per
bottle, or 6 bottle for $500.
Tanlac can be obtained from the
regular established agencies in all
East Tennessee towns

Fell "a Feet

Malcolm Bruce has cow that
bears a charmed life. Either that
or else Madame Cow has discovered
a way to defy the laws of gravita-
ton and to walk or slide down a
24-foot perpendicular concrete
wall. Anyway the animal in ques-
ton was found at the bottom of a
circular concrete silo on the Bruce
ranch Sunday afternoon and the
silo is good "a feet deep. She
had fallen through some planks
which covered the top of the silc
but she did not appear to be hurt
in the least and with a block and
tackle, Madame Cow was hoisted
back to the plane of her usua
haunts.

Auto Stage to Porthin

Beginning the first of the week a
daily auto stage service was started
by the Crescent Garage between
Boomers Ferry and Porthill by
Nave & Megquier, the proprietors
of the Crescent Garage. 1t has not
been definitely decided whether or
not the daily service will be con-
tinued and until Fthe proprietors OF
the route are enabled to determine
what sort of service the business
will warrant no definite schedule
will be made.
So far, both from a financial
standpoint on the part of the pro-
prietors and from a standpoint Of
service and convenience to patrons
the stage service has been entirely
satisfactory and more than likely
will be continued throughout the
summer.

New Editor Here

E. E. Rettig, of Sacramento,
Cali, arrived here Tuesday after
noon to make arrangements to en-
gage in the newspaper business
and expects to have his equipment
here in time to get out the first
issue of his paper about the first of
June. Mr.. Rettig plans to lease
the Kinuear building opposite the
Herald Office. The new paper will
be an advocate of Jeffersonian
principles.
Mr.. Rettig has been in the news
paper game for many years and it
goes without saying that the new
paper will be one of which we may
all be proud. Here's wishing the
new editor full realizations of his
ambitions in the new field of his
endeavors.

MARSHAL WORLEY TO RESIGN


Village Marshal J. A. Worley
will tender his resignation to the
village trustees next Tuesday night,
the same to take effect as soon as
the new board have selected a new
marshal.
Marshal Morley has served as
marshal in Boomers Ferry for the
past three years in most efficient
manner and has made one of the
best officers the town ever had. 1t
is to be regretted that the town
must lose his services, but Mr.
Worley felt that he should have
some time to prepare for his new
duties as sheriff of Boundary coun-
ty, and hence his resignation. In
speaking of his resignation Mar
shall Morley expressed his appre-
citation of the treatment which has
been given him by the town board
of trustees and the citizens of Bon
ners Ferry in general and expressed
his regret at having to sever rela-
tons which have been generally
congenial.
With the support of the citizens
Of Boundary county, Mr.. Morley
should be able to and no doubt will
end his term as sheriff of the new
county in a manner which will be
complimentary to his business and
executive ability.

AFTER NEW BASEBALL GROUNDS
Baseball Fans Now Working on Re,
organization Plans for Season

If the present plans of the local
baseball fans materialize Boomers
Ferry will have a new baseball
park and a rafting good team this
summer.
The fans held meeting in the
Office in the rear of Brody's Phar-
macy Monday night and agreed on
working plans for the proposed or
ganization. A committee was APP
pointed to solicit financial aid and
another committee was appointed
to arrange for the clearing of suf-
ficient acreage for baseball grounds
on the tract of land owned by the
city on the north bank of the Koot-
enai river just across the county
bridge.
The town trustees have granted
permission to use the land for a
ball park and it may be possible
that the town will assist in clearing
the ground. The new location is
admirable and its accessibility and
attractiveness will probably mean
larger attendance at the games.
This year Boomers Ferry has a
better chance than it has ever had
to organize a winning baseball
nine. All of the old home guard
ball players are here including
Crook" De Wolf, Pete" Peter
son, Skinny" Bruce, J. E. Carl
son, Bud" Heathershaw, Jack
O'Brien, Jockey" Zimmerman
and Ed Foss. Among the new
corners who are cracking good ball
players are Ernest Saunders, who
held down first sack for the Sand
point Tigers for number of years
when the Tigers were rated as the
best team in the Inland Empire
outside of the Spokane Indians,
and Harley Cave, also one of the
best hitters and felders of the
Standpoint Tigers. All these men
are ready and anxious to do all in
their power to give Boomers Ferry
a winning team this year. They
should have the hearty support Of
every citizen in their efforts to Sc
cure new grounds and build up 6
clean, winning team.

wrestler. who defeated Van Valken-
burg, local wrestler, in a recent
match at the Gem theater, has ac-
cepted a challenge from Elmer Des
Voignes, also local wrestler, and
the two will match strength and
prowess at Kent's hall on next

$50, winner to take all, best two
falls out of three, Police Gazette
rules. R. c. Van Buren, will ref
cree the match.
While Herbert is the heavier oil
the two the local friends of Des
Voignes believe that the local
mans superior ability will make
him the winner. Herbert, on the
other hand, has strong hackers who
contend that he is all to the gooc
when it comes to the nice points o
the wrestling game. The mattel
promises to be good one.
There will be two preliminar,
eight round boxing contests, tn
first between Thomas Gilliard AM
Kid Willard and the second be
tween VIM. Johnston and Clar

SUDAN GRASS
EXPERIMENT
Prof. G. W. Spoerry Will Grow New
Grass Imported From Africa by
u. S. Government
ADAPTED TO OUR BENCH LANDS
Has Been Given a Trial Locally by
Mr.. Heidemln

Agriculture has been going on
for countless centuries and yet we
have something to learn. The for
eign farmer commended with
drought, rainfall and pest long be-
fore the first furrow was turned in
America and we should attempt to
profit by his experience.
We have experts in the Depart
ment of Agriculture who are en-
deavoring always to introduce
something better suited to our con-
ditions and when in 1909 they
found Sudan, grass in the Sudan
regions of Africa growing with
practically no rainfall so abundant
ly that three and four crops were
harvested, they had what we need
ed in our arid lands.
Sudan grass grows to be about
six to eight feet tall and in this
latitude will not make more than
two crops. 1t is a member of the
sugar cane family yet looks like
millet and is relished by all kinds
of stock and particularly dairy
stock. 1t is an annual and stools
VERY we'll, as many as 100 stalks
coming from one seed.
1t has been tried out in several
regions and is a pronounced sue
cess. 1t is a tender plant wher
young and like corn cannot b,
planted until danger from frost i,
over.
The seed is very costly as yet be
cause of its scarcity, costing abou
rs cents pound, although 1 wa
able to secure 135 pounds through
the university of Texas at a cheap
er rate. I expect to plant abou
10 acres as an experiment and shall
raise seed if it does we'll, as 1 be
lieve it to be the crop most adapte,
: to our bench lands.
8 Mr.. Heideman raised a few
punches last year and it did ex
ceedingly we'll so that l have n
= hesitancy in planting on a larg
, scale.
I am interested in seeing it thor
e oughly tried out and to those in
t terested invite your attention an
S would ask you to watch its growth
