How To Be
Strong and Fat

The trouble with most thin people
who wish 10 gain weight is that they
insist on drugging their stomach or
stuffing it with greasy foods: rubbing
on useless flesh creams" or follow
ing some foolish physical culture
stunt. while the real cause of thin
ness goes untouched. You cannot get
fat until your digestive tract assimi-
lates the food you eat.
Thanks to a remarkable new scien-
tiic discovery, it is now possible to
combine into simple form the very
elements needed by the digestive or
CANS to help them convert food into
rich, fat-laden blood This master
stroke of modern science is called
Tonoline and has been termed the
greatest of fesh.builders. 'Tonoline
aims through its regenerative, recon
structive powers to coax the stomach
and intestines to literally soak up the
fattening elements of your food and
pass them into the blood, where they
are carried to every cell and tissue of
your body. You can readily picture
the result when this amazing trans
formation has taken place and you
notice how your cheeks fill out, hol-
lows about your neck, shoulders and
bust disappear and YOU take on from
10 to 30 pounds of solid, healthy
flesh. Tonoline is absolutely harm.

Whenever there is any talk about
lower rate of taxes on intangible
personal property a great howl goes
up from the owners of tangible prop
erty, who affect to believe it a gross,
injustice. Intangible personally con-
sists mostly of Stocks, Bonds, Notes,
Cash, Accounts, Mortgages, and other
such evidences of enterprise, all Of
which are limited by law or custom to
a certain percent of earnings. No other
kind of property has the limits of its
profits fixed by Law. A man may law
fully earn all he can in his store, his
shop or on his farm. He may charge
what he pleases for his professional
services, for his manufactured wares,
for his cattle. his hogs and his corn,
wheat and tobacco. but when he comes
to lending money. which the invest
ment in Securities includes, he Is
strictly limited to a gross income
never exceeding six per cent. and is
it fair to exact half or more of his
income for taxes when others get on
with perhaps one-tenth of their earn
ings from other kinds of Invested
property. farming. professions and
business? The argument is all in
favor of the money lender. as his CAPT.
tai is essential TO all Industrial i'm
proVement and cheap money greases
the wheels of progress and prosperity.

MRS. CARRITHERS
FELT DISCOURAGED
Glad She Took Advice When
Husband Said, Lets Get a
Bottle of Tanlac

Louisville, KY, Oct, 10 Statement
after statement is now being made in
regard 10 the merits of Tanlac, the new
medicine that is accomplishing such
astonishing result in Louisville. Mrs.
Sallie Carrithers, residing at 1916 Grand

recently:
MY husband just simply forced me
to take this Tanlac, but now am glad
that took the medicine, as am one of
the happiest women in Louisville:
81 had always suffered from catarrh
of the stomach. but my real trouble be-
maine poisining as a result of 1t. My
stomach was in such bad, sensitive
condition that could not eat anything.
My husband said TO me one day,
why don't you try this Tanlac?' had
tried so many things that [ felt dis
couraged and told him believed nothing
would help me.
He took me for walk one evening
recently. and passing the Taylor-Isaacs
Drug Store, he said, Let's go in and
get bottle of Tanlac. He had my arm
and we went into the store together and
bought bottle of Tanlac.
Il waited until morning before l be-
gan taking the medicine. l took dose
before breakfast, one at noon, and a
third at supper. That night slept
more soundly than 1 had in months. l
now have taken two bottles of Tanlac
and l feel like am cured. | am here
to get another bottle, though, as my
husband insists that should do SO.
II simply cannot get enough to eat now.

the paper in celebration of the twenty

Crop Conditions in Madison.

The crop conditions in Madison coun
ty we're never better at this time of
year. Tobacco has all been cut and
housed. and while the acreage may not
be quite as large as last year, yet the
quality is really better. and this will
more thon offset the difference.
Weather conditions have been very
favorable for curing. and the outlook is
good for an unusually fine crop. The
handle the crop and indications point
to one of the best seasons in their his
tory. which means a great deal of en-
ployment for lab ring men and the dis
tr.bution of thousands of dollars
throughout our county.
Corn is unusually good-possibly the
largest and best crop ever produced IN
this county. Most of the early crop
has been cut and the quality is fine
Prices have ranged at from 50 80 to
50 75 barrel. Several hundred barrels
have been disposed OF at $3.50.
Wheat looks good and about the usual
acreage has been sown. Pastures are
in fine shape and stock is .'theiving in
clover" SO 10 speok.
The potato crop is good and enough
OF 'spuds" were raised TO supply local
consumption, and prices range from COO
to 75c bushel. Sweet potatoes are
bountiful and are selling al go cents a
bushel
Apples are abundant. The crop il
the largest produced in this county in
years Choice fruit is sell at soc 9
bushel.
Vegetables are abundant and prices
reasonable Green corn and greer
beans are still an article to be found or
the dolly menu. which is rather un
usual at this season.
All in all, Madison county is greai
and prosperous county and her citizen
Iship is signally blessed.
