J. r.. Rose, Travelling Salesman,
Relieved i'm Short Time.
States That He Had Catarrh of
Head, Nose and Stomach.
BENEFITED BY TANLAC
Says He Received Wonderful
Results From Medicine.
Highly Recommends Remedy to
All Sufferers of Catarrh.

J. r. Rose, a we'll known travelling
salesman, who makes his home at the
Pacific hotel, Wichita, made the fol-
lowing remarkable statement regard
ing the benefits he derived from Tan
lac, the new medicine that is now be-
ing SO widely discussed and distributed
in Topeka and vicinity. Mr.. Rose
said:
II have been troubled with a severe
case of catarrh for the past four years,
which seemed to be gradually cours-
ing through my entire system. 1 had
a continuous dropping of mucus from
my nose to my throat, which was very
unpleasant, causing me to have very
offensive breath Ny stomach gave
me much trouble, as after eating gas
would form in my stomach, and L
would feel awfully bIoated- 1 had bad
spells of hawking and splitting, which
seemed to weaken me. l could not
sleep we'll at nights, as nay throat
would fill up with mucous ard almost
choke me-.
"I have about finished taking my
second bottle of Tanlac and the drop
ping of mucus from my nose has
stopped completely. 1 am not both
cred hardly at all with my stomach. L
don't cough any more, and have no
trouble getting a good nights sleep
1 can recommend Tanlac to any one
throat and stomach, as 1 have re-
ceived wonderful benefits from the
medicine
Probably the most prevalent and
distressing condition IS chronic ca
tarrh of the mucous membranes, such
as Mr.. Rose evidently suffered from.
Catarrh of the stomach and kidneys is
the most frequent cause of dyspepsia
and Bright's disease, and catarrhal
conditions in the nose and throat lead
to inevitable deafness.
Tanlac, the remarkable new medi-
cine that is proving SO successful in
such instances, is now sold in Topeka
by the personal direction of w. c.
Pope at the Tully-M Mcfarland Drug
Co., Ninth and Kansas avenue. Tan
| lac can be obtained at S1.00 a bottle,
three for $2-75 or six bottles for $500.

WEST IS RICHER
Speakers at Denver Farm Con.
gress See Bright Future.
HI. b. Walker, of X. s. A. c.,
Tells of Dry Farming Methods.

Denver. Colo, Oct Crops and
soils, irrigation and forestry and rural
organization were subjects before to-
days session of the International
Farm Congress here.
E. c. Chilcott. agricuturalist in
charge of dry land Investigations in
the department of agriculture, told of
his work in the great plains area.
gress has made for this work and de-
failing the results of personal ex-
perience and observation in South Da-
kota, Nebraska, Kansas, Texas, New
Mexico and oklahoma the speaker
said:
Practically all of the level or roll
ing upland prairie land in the great
plains can be profitably farmer.
Live Stock Essential.
Live stock must enter largely into
any system of profitable and perman-
ent dry land agriculture.
The speaker urged suppression OF
weeds as the most effective means of
conserving soil moisture
Extensive, rather than intensive
farming was urged.
H. B. Walker, state irrigation en-
gineer of the Kansas Agricultural col
lege of Manhattan declared the great
est economic development could be &C
complished only by encouraging irri-
cation and dry farming to their full
est application. The province of dry
farming, he said, rightly includes If
rigation without over stepping its field
of reclamation. The congress was
urged to extend its influence in such
development. Mr.. Walker said in
part:
Rocky Mountain Valleys.
1.-The great dry-farming district on
the eastern slope of the Rocky Noun
tains is ribbed with fertile stream
valleys. In some instances these val
leys may be developed by gravity ir-
rigation systems and in others the
shallow ground-water available makes
possible their reclamation by pump
ing. The improvement of these areas
means not only a greater irrigation
area, but substantial reinforcement to
dry farming. The problems are not
easy but the outcome is promising.
The best educational help through
field assistance, demonstration and
experiments, is none too good for the
advancement of our dry-farming cit
izenShip."

I had had two severe hemorrhages anG was so weak T. could rot walk The doctors said I might live two or three months and advised be to gG to. Colorado al once could not go: had no money; my wife heard of the Antl-Tuberculosis association and urged me to visit the office on Twentieth street was carried up there, examined and pronounced an advanced case.

cohol. Russia was the first civilized country in the world to declare abso- lute prohibition. The Kaiser, a tee totaler himself, has already put limi- tations upon the consumption of beer and has demanded that the brewers de- crease the amount of alcohol. The King of England has passed rigid rules for the regulation of the public drinking places and has prohibited the habit of treating by placing a severe penalty upon anyone who violated this law.
 At the present time this great Uni ted States of America is spending more than three and a half billions of dol lars on the evil god of drink. More than is spent on education from the Kindergarten to the university; a vast deal more and the amount increases. The amount of money spent on educa- tion in this country is not over $SO0,- 900, 900. With national prohibition we could convert this vast amount Of money into the channels of education and save the manhood of the nation Instead of spending this great amount of money for alcohol we could edu- cate our people and make them strong CT and more intelligent and when the time comes, if it ever does, that we shall go Lo war we will be surrounded by vast ring of strong, highly intel lectual men who are capable to cope with the enemy intelligently and with decsiveness''
