NOW ABLE TO WORK
FIRST TIME IN YEARS
h. W. Miller Didn't Have Use of
Right Arm for Years.-.Gains IS
Pounds on TanIac.

Il am 70 years old and hadn't been
able to strike a lick Of work for over
IA years until | got TO taking this
Tanlac medicine" said Mr.. H. W.
Miller, at Jacobs Pharmacy, Saturday.
Fourteen years ago had a terri.
BILE spell Of typhoid fever, and since
that time hadn't been able to use
my right arm to do any good. 1t felt
weak and numb and had no strength
in it, but | didn't get Tanlac for this
trouble, as | had no idea | would ever
be able to use it again.
Il bought it for kidney trouble,
rheumatism and pains in my back.
Well, it relieved me Of these troubles
alright, but, strange to say. it helped
my arm, too. Yes, sir, it has actual
ly made my arm so much better that
| can now do lot of work some
thing hadn't been able to do in all
these years. / don't know how to
account for it, but that's what actual
" happened, and all my neighbors
who have known me for years will
tell you the same thing.
"Going back to my other trouble, l
suffered great deal from my back
and joints, and was SO nervous all the
time ! couldn't sleep much. Some
times would get so nervous and
strung-up that the least noise would
almost make me jump out of bed be-
fore | could control myself.
"My stomach was all out of shape,
too, and couldn't eat to do any
good. Nothing seemed to taste right,
and got so finally would have vom-
iting spells after trying to eat. To
tell you the truth, | was in a mighty
bad fix and was just getting weaker
and weaker all the time. | dent feel
that way now, and after taking only
three bottles of this Tanlac, / have
gained IL pounds in weight, besides
my stomach feels just like l had a
new one put in, and | eat and sleep
just like school boy. TIE rheumatic
pains are all gone, and | feel better
and stronger in every way.
1T has helped my wife, too. She
is now on her second bottle, and it is
doing her more good than anything
she has tried in years. She was in
almost as bad a fix as | was and it
has relieved her of ailments she has
had for a long time. both Of us
think there is nothing too good to say
about Tanlac, and | can understand
why everybody is talking about it."
Tanlac is sold in Selmer exclusively
by Browder Bros; in Adamsville by
Abernathy's Pharmacy; in Bethe
Springs by T. S. Davis; in Ramer by

LONG DISTANCE HELLO.
ATLANTA TO HAVANA. CUBA

Atlanta, March Is -Georgians
may soon be saying hello to Havana.
Southern Bell officials announce that
after the completion of the long line
to Key West, Fla the next step in
long distance telephone development
will be a submarine cable connecting
the system with Havana, Cuba, and
other Cuban points
This announcement is of particu-
lar interest, of course in Florida,
Georgia and South Carolina. Ha-
vana and Key West, while both com
paratively close, have seemed iso-
lated and far away on account of the
lack of telephone connections with
the rest of the world. In a few
months they will be within reach of
everybody's voice, and although the
actual distance will be the same,
they will seem more like neighbors
Meanwhile the work of construct
ing. a standard line bearing two cop
per circuits between Jacksonville
and Key West has actually been be-
gun.
