PROMINENT MEN
NOW USE TANLAc
Mayors, County And Circuit Court
Judges Obtain Famous
Medicine

Lexington, April %, 1915.-"I
have sold Tanlac, since the beginning
of its introduction in Lexinton, to the
mayors of number of cities, county
judges, and to many of the most
prominent business and professional
men in Kentucky" says VIM. E..
Stage, the Lexington druggist.
1.-THE demand for the preparation
has been phenomenal. In all of my
twenty years experience in the drug
business l have never seen anything
that equals it.
''In addition to the Lexington de-
mand, Tanlac has been shipped from
my store to Kansas City, Mo-, Colo
RADIO Springs, Col, Denver, Col. ;
Memphis, Tenn; Meridian, Miss; Be-
nilla, Fla, Louisville, KY, Tiffin,
Ohio; Cincinnati, Ohio; Columbia,
Tenn; Palm Beach, Fla; Phoenix,
Ariz.; Los Angeles, CAL; and many
other points throughout the country
that are too numerous to mention.
You may rest assured that every city
in Kentucky has, too, heard of Tanlac.
81 can only account for the great
demand for this preparation by the
fact that it is a good medicine. That
is proven by the numerous statements
from those who have tested the medi-
cine in case of catarrhal affections, or
stomach, liver and kidney complaints,
and are now convinced of its excellent
merits. The public has not been slow
to appreciate the Tanlac merit.
practically $4,000 worth of Tan.
las has been sold and distributed thro
my store within the past seventy days
Such a demand is most certainly un-
precedented
! II take pleasure in commencing Mr.
Cooper and his very excellent prepar.
ation."

is now sold in Stanford only by Pen
ny's drug store. 33-1

Betting On End OF War,


There is some strange betting go
ing on over in London. 1t is betting
on when the war will cease. Here is
the range of the bets:
Before June / 1872 to l against
Before September 1, 1915-even.
Before Nov. 1, 1870 to l on.
These bets represent no doubt the
average popular judgment and are
more reliable than anything that AS
quith or Earl Grey may say. From
these bets one may judge that up to
September 1, next, the probabilities
are that the war will go on. On Sep
TENDER 1, the chances are neither way
and after that peace has the better
chance. The probabilities of war will
| then decline, until December 1, when
the chances are 10 to l that the wal
will cease.
