markable statelnent made i few
mornings ago In Miss LaReu
Davis. residiag at 20 Glass
street, East ghattanooga. Tenn.
Miss Davis was very happy
person indeed when she called
at, the Live and Let Live Drug
Company's store for her third
bottle of the medicine and
seemed highly pleased at being
able to find it in Chattanooga.
Continuing, she said:
Il bought my first bottle a
short time ago in Gas City, Ind.
and it helped me so much
have continued using it since. l
have always been very delicate
and for the last few years have
suffered almost continually
from a very bad form of stomach
trouble aud rheumatism. | suf-
fered a great deal from pains in
all my joints and limbs. Ny
kidneys also must have been
affected, as I suffered a great
deal with pains in my back.
Il rarely ever had any appe-
title and simply could not relish
anything. What little l did eat
always disagreed with me, and
my food seemed to ferment and
cause gas and swelling in my
stomach. In fact. everything /
ate seemed to poison my whole
system, as the rheumatism pains
were dreadful. You can easily
imagine how l felt as | only
weighed seventy six pounds, and
l was so thin that | looked per-
fectly awful. / was also terribly
nervous and had headaches a
great deal and seldom ever got
good nights rest. This was
the condition Z was in when 1
began taking. Tanlac, but just
look at me nbw. My appearance
is changed sd one would hardly
know me to be the same person.
20, l feel so different now,
even my complexion has improv-
ed. My appetite is good. l can
hardly get enough to eat, and
everything seems to agree with
me. | no longer suffer from
dyspepsia and those terrible
pains are all thing of the past.
IN fact. l am enjoying the best
of health and feel just dandy.
Taulac is simply grand, and l
can truthfully say is the only
medicine that ever did me any
good. | would not take anything
for what 1t has done for me. 1t
has acted more like magic than
medicine in my case, and / glad,
ly recommend it to my friends. -
Commenting on Miss Davis
statement, Mr.. G. f. Willis,
who is personally superintend-
ling the introduction of Tanlac
in this dity, said :
'.TanIac, the powerful recon
structive tonic. ogercomes these
troubles by purifying the system
and intigorating the digestive
organs. 1t builds up the sYs-
TEN, creates healthy appetite
vitalIzes the blood, brings back

Hall. who has charge of South
ern Methodist circuit here, in,
stead of Rev. w. M. Cook who
resigned to take charge of a
High school at Cumberland City,
filled his appointment at this
chapel last Sunday. He seems
to be in deep earnest about the
work. The NJ. E. church here
has possibly one of the largest
Sunday schools in the county, as
many as one hundred taking part
in the classes. This school is
composed of all denominations
of the neighborhood, and we
hope it is part of the host John

that n. FL. White will have

The good rains continue
and the corn crops look fine.
There seems to be some discus
sion as regards the fish and game
law. We suppose that the IL
cense part of the law only was
repealed. One purpose the law
for Smith county serves and that
is the violator of the law has fish
and game while the other class
doesn't. We think there should
be new assessment law. The
constitution doesn't seem to be
in the way, as it says, 'All pro-
perty shall be taxed according
to it's value" and we see readi-
ly that this is not done. Many
merchandise notes are assessed
at face value. while real estate
is assessed at about one fourth
it's value. MaGgart has motor
car, Ellis FL. Maggart having pur-
chased five passenger Ford.
There was a heavy rain here last
Monday evening a week ago,
washing lands badly. 1t washed
a heavy sorghum mill a distance
of about 400 yards, out of a hol-
low where the water had moi
more than three hundred yards
to gather. The mill was on
the farm of Esq. d. b. Harville
it also washed log harm away
out Of the head of a hollow
where the water had about 2OC
or 300 yards to gather. The barr
belongs to John Shoemake.
