Capt. Parker Says Stomach About Played Outflow Eats Cabbage and Pork
 Like a Section Hand

T have got to hand it to that Tan lac, for there is no doubt about it being the finest thing ever sold in a drug store for the people that have any sort of stomach trouble or indigestion" said Capt Eugene Parker, a popular Louis vile and Nashville conductor, running between Birmingham and Montgomery and who lives at AT Sixth avenue, IngIe- nook
 Why, the way it has strengthened me out in just short time. he continued .is a mystery and it has done for me what nothing else l ever tried would do I had mighty near got to where I didn't need to go to the table any more, so far as eating was concerned for I couldn't eat anything after I got there If I did l had to pay dear for it in a little while for my stomach had about played out altogether.
 There was a continual soreness in my stomach and l thought sometimes it must be an abscess. My liver never was right and there was not day but what I had to get something from the drug store for headache and to settle my stomach. 1 never had much life in me and had fallen off great deal. was in a badly run down shape generally and hardly fit to do my work.
 About three weeks ago friend of mine asked me why didn't try this Tanlac. as he had used it and found it to be the very thing he needed so I took him upon his suggestion and stopped at the Anderson Drug com pany in Inglenook and bought two bot ties of it. but I must say I never looked for it to do me any good, as 50 many things had been recommended to me and I tried them all without any bene fit.
 Well, I am afraid some people won't believe it but it is fact and I can prove it. After l had used those two bottles I weighed and found I had actu- ally gained IS pounds. It just straighten- ed my stomach out in no time and since I took the first dose I have not had to take anything for headache.
 "I have the finest kind of an appe> tite now and can eat anything. The other day out on the road our supplies had run low and 1 had some salt pork and cabbage cooked up on the caboose and I ate it like a section hand and en- loved every mouthful of 1t. That's go ing some for a man who had stomach trouble but it did not hurt me one bit.
 .I notice I sleep a great deal better now and am just about 100 per cent in better shape every way. I really believe Tanlac is the best remedy in the world and there are lot of other people out my way who think the same thing

LEWIS IS VICTORIOUS
 OVER DRAAK BEFORE
 CAPACITY AUDIENCE
Draak DOwned in Two Straight Falls by the Ken tuckian-ROller Match
 for Next Week
Fly FRED BODEKER

Before packed house, Ed ('Strangler') Lewis claimant to the worlds champion | ship, last night defeated Tom Draak, the local favorte, and Belgian champion, in a sensational bout at the Jefferson thea
 ire in two straight falls Lewis ability was questioned by no one at the conclu-
 sion of the match for it was evident that the Kentucky grappler was far the su- ! perior of Draak, or any other wrestler who has appeared in Birmingham. Judging from Lewis showing last night, he has a strong claim for the worlds title. He broke holds of all description, some of which had never been demon strated in Birmingham before. With the hold that he put the shoulders of the Belgian to the mat. the head chancery, brought out to the full the remarkable strength of the Kentuckian.
 The head chancery is a new hold of Lewis and it was very effective on Draak. The strength of Lewis and the force which he applied all but dislocated the neck of the Belgian, and when the grapplers entered the mat for the second fall, Draak seemed to be ''all in The Belgian offered but feeble resistance to Lewis in the second fall, and by working on Draak's neck and head, which seemed almost out of place. the Kentuckian pinned Draak' shoulders to the mat in three minutes.
 The first fall required an hour and eight minutes of wrestling that kept the
 crowd on it's feet Each wrestler broke hold after hold. but it was not until after the head chancery was put into use that the Belgian was subdued. Draak was on the offensive for the larger part of the time, never giving Lewis chance to rest He had Lewis in several dangerous holds, but each time the Kentuckian seemed to break them whenever he de- sired.
 The house was a thorough Draak crowd but realized that Draak was wrestling out of his class. That Lewis was the best wrestler to make his appearance in Birmingham in years was the general opinion Draak fought continually through the match, but simply couldn't handle the challenger of Frank Gotch Both wrestlers used exceedingly clean tactics and won the favor and approval of the crowd before many minutes had elapsed Jack Riddle refereed the match to the satisfaction of all Several good preliminaries preceded the main bout.
 It was announced at the match last night that Dr. Roller, the famous 'Wrest- ling physician would be the next great wrestler to offer to the fans Of Blrmlng- ham. He is matched with Lemarin, the champion of Hungary. The match will probably be held on Monday night at the Jefferson
