Engineers Wife Says Her Health
Was Completely Broken Down
Tanlac Made Her VII and Strong

Il have just finished my third bot
tie OF Tanlac and have gained thirty
five pounds was the truly remark
able statement made by AIRS. Will
helmina Joiner, wife of Richard
Joiner, the well-known engineer on
the NJ. d. & S. railroad, residing at
lis Third street, Macon, Ga.
Before l began taking the medi-
cine my health was so broken and l
was in such badly rundown con-
dition, / couldn't give sufficient
nourishment to my young baby-in
fact, | was completely broken down
in every way.
Il suffered from nervous indiges-
tion and have been in a general
rundown condition. In fact, for
nearly two years have suffered from
nervous prostration brought on by
this trouble.
Il tried doctors, / trled medicines,
| tried nearly everything you could
think of trying 70 get relief, but it
just seemed like the harder / tried
to get well, the worse / would get.
Finally my condition got so could
not eat any solid food of any kind
without suffering torture. 1t just
looked like | was on the verge of
physical decline, and sometimes /
almost despaired of ever getting we'll
and strong again
That's just the condition l was in
when | began taking Tanlac, and it
wasn't any time hardly after began
taking it before | began to improve.
My nerves got better at once and 1
got so l could enjoy a good nights
sleep. Then my appetite returned,
and it just looked like ! couldn't get
enough to eat. ! could just eat any
thing put on the table, and every
thing seemed to taste good and
nourish me. And the baby, why, you
just ought to see it. 1t is just thriv-
ing and is getting plenty of nourish-
ment. My complexion has cleared up,
too, and have a good color now for
the first time in years. Before | be-
gan taking this Tanlac was as yell
low as a lemon.
MY husband thinks there is no
medicine on earth like Tanlac, and
my friends are all talking about how
! / have improved. l am only too glad
to tell you what 1t has done for me,
a. it has been nothing short of a
blessing in my case"

Gladys Writes
To P. C.'S
Dear Lieut. Lusk:
prominent cltIzens)

Dear Lieut. Lusk:
! When you said this morning that
YOU thought it would be a good idea
to get married before going to war
[ certainly had no idea that you were
trying to spring a joke, or never
would have said you could come over
this evening. When papa came home
home and said he heard you say you
Thought it would be a good idea to
get married before going to war, so
J you could appreciate the privilege OF
being away from home, was 50 mad
felt like calling you up to tell you
you could not come tonight, and then
l thought / would let you come and
give you chance to expain the mat
ter.
l wouldn't have been so willing to
let you call If Mabel and had not
just been talking about how romantic
it is for old ladies to tell about hav-
ing sweethearts killed in battle.
/ want to say that war is too seri-
Gus for you to joke about, and that IL
you would drink Chero-Cola, You
would not have such a grouchy view
of things.
/ know two or three couples that
are real happy, and think that If
Chero-Cola were used in more homes
there would be less unhappiness. A
nice. cool, pretty, delicious drink Of
Chero-Cola makes you feel that the
world is a good place after all, and
that your friends are pretty good
people.
can tell you that if we didn't keep
Chero-Cola in the house, l would be
a good deal madden at you than | am.
AS it is, / just went and put few
more bottles on ice for us to enjoy
this evening.
want to ask you who you told me
said he only regretted that he had
but one wife to give up for his coun-
try. 1t sounds like something l have
heard before, but still it doesn't seem
just right. But l think it is a nice
compliment to the mans wife and
wish knew who said 1t.
Your friend,
Gladys.

COMMENTS OF THE GAME
Another fine game. The boys are
getting better every day.
Fans, we sure have got us a pitch
er now. Schroedr and Hugh Brown
were both signed up yesterday morn
ing and will be with us the rest of
the season.
Schroeder pitched a grand game
yesterday not hit being registered
OFF his delivery. The Tampa Tribune
gives Kissimmee one hit, a scratch
in the ninth, but this was an error
pure and simple which Bryan Meharg
will confirm. The ball was hit to him
in the ninth and he had time to get
his man at first but threw wild the
runner being called safe at first.
Ebby Sawyer's big stick was missed
yesterday. He missed the train.
Only Ebby can tell you why.
As there were only eight players
on the train, Clarence Smith was
pressed into service in right field and
he furnished much amusement for
the fans when he came to the bat,
as he has not felt of a baseball bat
in five years.
When it comes to pulling down
those long high ones Benny Frank
lin is ROUND HERE, The little
Teller is getting in fine shape now
Folks, there was only few of us
up there yesterday, but
when Billy Garletts hit that ball
over the fence for home run they
sure heard our nobe. Billy fouled
the first ball pitched over the fence
and then Strengthened out the next
one. Billy says his baby is just COM
to talk so we know he will
teach it to say Home run.
The Kissimmee fans did not take
kindly to Arnold Armistead's umpir-
ing and he retired in the fourth. II
There is an umpire around this neck
of the woods that gives both teams
squarer deal than Arnolds does, we
will take off our hats to him.
Tenny caught a good game and
when he gets used to Schroeder's
delivery the battery will be hard to
beat.
Barlow will be here Tuesday, fans,
so be there and root. We have Just
got to take that game and tie the
leaders; then look out.

There was such storm of disap-
proval at the suggestion of the return
to the convention system that it is
safe to say the movement will not be
pushed. Let us simplify and perfect
our primary system which is one of
the bulwarks of the rule of the people.

Boost the boosters is the right
kind of slogan, and it's adoption is
being urged in many towns. Usually
however, people who do nothing for
the advancement of the community
themselves have as their unvarying
motto, Knock the boosters. Think
of the men in this town whom you
most frequently hear mentioned in
a critical way, and see if they are
not the men who have been in the
forefront of every progressive enter
prise.

No man whose right to the Cover
norship of this State was contested
by a claim of only 176 votes, and
who would sit idly by and see the
honor taken from him, without in
yestigating the correctness of the
count, especially in view of the
known confusion attending the
count of ballots at this primary. On
the face of the returns one man
claims the States highest Office by
17e votes. Three or four votes
counted incorrectly in each county Of
the State would change the result. A
man who would not look after his
rights under such circumstances
would be unworthy of the support
that was given him. A man who
would have the Governorship with
such q cloud of uncertainty hanging
over it is unworthy OF it. Let there
IS q satisfying investigation, a fair
count. and then let everyone abide by
ne result.

In our literature advertising the

that we think SO much of the stranger

they have been in the State long

to secure quite an influx of defeated

AGAINST FILM
COMPANIES
MOTION PICTURE EXHIBITORS IN
OKLAHOMA CITY CHARGE IL
LEGAL COMBINATION OF THREE
CONCERNS

Oklahoma City, Feb. 10-Complaint
was filed with the Oklahoma Corpora
ton commission early in February
against the General Film company
the Mutual Film Corporation, and
the Universal Film and Supply com
pany by P. II. Powell, of Oklahoma
City, on behalf of himself and, as
president of the Oklahoma branch Of
the Motion Picture Exhibitors league
of America. on behalf of its 400 mem
bers in the state. The complaint
charged that the three companies
named, all of which are foreign cor
porations, have combined in restraint
of trade in violation of the laws Of
Oklahoma.
It was charged that the three COM
panies had a virtual monopoly on the
business of providing the exhibitors
in Oklahoma with films, and that the
agents of the companies illegally COM
bined and that as a result Of the
combination exhibitors were asked to
pay unreasonable charges for films.
The petition alleged that the com
panies refused to furnish exhibitors
With films except upon payment III
advance. 1t was asserted further
that in the event of the failure of
the company to deliver the films for
a specified day the exhibitor was
not reimbursed.
Following an informal complaint by
Oklahoma City exhibitors last month,
the corporation commission ordered
the companies to refrain from collect
ing in advance for motion pictures.
Il was suggested that the films De
sent to the exhibitors c. o. D. In
the complaint filed by Mr.. Powell
il was asserted that the companies
as a result exacted from 20 per cent
10 Is per cent additional ''under the
guise of a sum necessary to collect
rentals daily
It was charged also that the prices
of supplies and accessories are un'
reasonable: that the companies dis
criminate between customers and
charge unreasonable rates for posters
and other advertising matter which
formerly was furnished free.
The complaint asked also that the
representatives of the companies be
cited to appear before the commits

Petrograd Feb. 9.-Severe fighting
is again developing on the Dvinsk
front. Preliminary artillery dueis
have been succeeded by a continuous
bombardmant of great intensity on
both sides.
The Germans, who had taken the
initiative in the new conflict, attacked
the railway station at Liksno on the
east bank of the Dyina, seven miles
northwest of Dyinak. This would APP
pear to indicate a serious penetration
of the Russian lines.
The Russian staff, however, eX-
plains that the German forces, al
though unable to advance from their
old positions, succeeded in reaching
Tikano by using heavy artillery, which
they now have had time to mount.
little importance therefore is at
tached in these circles to the per
sistent predictions of a great German
offensive against Riga and Dvinsk in
March. since Russian military men
have been convinced by the failure
of Won Hindenburg's last efforts to
take Dvinsk that even under condi'
tions most favorable to the Germans
the Dyinsk-Riga line is impregnable
