LEXINGTON, MAN SAYS HIS MUSCLES
 WERE TIED IN KNOT
That Is Exactly the Way My Rheumatism Acted, Says
 J. F. Holley

One sensational statement after anothe: is being made daily in connection with Tanlac, the new medicine which is &C., complaining such remarkable results Tn Birmingham and vicinity, and the Tanlac office is being flooded with letters from all parts of the country.
 Writing from Lexington, Ky, MT J. F. HoIey, who lives at 160 Devonia street in that city, said:
 This is really the first medicine have ever taken that does what they say it will do. I haven't felt like a well man for 10 weeks past. My whole system seemed run down, debilitated. I could not sleep at night, and I would feel in the mornings just as fatigued as I did upon going to bed at night. My digestion became ef- fected and I couldn't eat.
 Attacks of violent headache were fre- quent. My nervous system seemed to be all disordered. My worst trouble how ever, was rheumatism. The doctors said I suffered from what is known as muscu- lar rheumatism. My muscles seemed as If they were tied up in a knot
 T couldn't use my right arm, and was just about helpless. Somebody persuaded me to try Tanlac and got bottle of that medicine. Tanlac is certainly mek- ing new man of me. can now eat and sleep like I haven't in years. My rheu- rnatism is all gone and feel strong and built up in every way. am a well man and certainly thank the friend who sug- gested my using this remarkable medi- cine.''
 In commenting upon the above state ment, G. r. Willis, southern distributor of Tanlac, said:
 Rheumatism is not only one of the most prevalent, but one of the most pain full and difficult to treat of all present-day diseases When the digestive organs and bowels are not working properly and the kidneys become clogged up the whole system becomes deranged and saturated with uric acid poisons and other impuri- ties which accumulate in the joints and other parts of the body and produce the condition known as rheumatism.
 ''Tanlac is a. powerful reconstructive tonic and quickly overcomes this condi- ton by acting directly on the vital or gans toning them up and enabling them to perform their proper functions, so that the impurities are soon eliminated from the system in a natural way. Liniments and external applications as a general thing only afford temporary relief. Tam lac is a constitutional treatment and gets right at the root of the trouble by re- moving the cause.''
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu- eively by the Patton-Pope Drug Go. and Jacobs Drug Go. It is also sold in Ensley by the D. W. Morris Drug Co. and in Bessemer by the PegramPatton Drug Co
 Over million bottles sold in first nine months.-Adv.

MRS. BUTLER'S TRIAL IN CRIMINAL COURT
Charged With Shooting Her Husband Two Years Ago
 at WOOdlawn

Charged with murder in the second de- gree, Mrs Priscilla Lutes Butler is on trial before Judge Harrington P. Heflin Tn the second division of the criminal court. The taking of evidence is expected to be completed today.
 Mrs. Butler was indicted. charged with shooting and killing her husband about two years ago at Woodlawn. The case at that time attracted wide attention ana numerous witnesses have been summoned by both the state and defense for the trial,
 At the time of the shooting Butler, who was a prominent merchant in Woodlawn' made a dying statement before several witnesses that his wife had shot him, but this statement Is combatted by the de- fense.
 According to the evidence there were many quarrels between the Buffers as the wife was young woman and her husband was about twice her age. It was also brought out in the husband dying statement that his wife telephoned him to come to her and when he did the shooting occurred.
 Assistant Solicitors w. s. Welch and James Davis are actively prosecuting the case.
