HAS LIVED IN SAME
HOUSE FOR SO YEARS
Mrs. Bowen Was a Resident
Here When Birmingham
Was a Small Village

"The benefits I have received from
Tanlac have made me feel years
younger" said Mrs. Anna Bowen, in her
statement to the Tanlac representative
last Saturday. Mrs. Bowen lives at lSOO
William street in an attractive home
which she built 80 years ago. when BE
mingham was a small village. She is
one of the best known and most highly
respected women of this city.
For two years" continued Mrs.
Bowen, Il suffered with rheumatism ter
ribly. My joints and limbs got to swell
ing SO 1 had to wear rubber hose on both
legs and when began taking Tanlac
had been confined to my bed for SIX
months. My hands were so swollen ana
painful 1 couldn't even move my fingers.
I had no appetite and my stomach was
in such a bad condition 1 could hardly
eat anything and 1 was so nervous ana
full of misery il was almost impossible
for me TO sleep at ALL All medicines ana
everything else failed to reach my trou-
bles and my condition kept getting more
serious
II had been reading of the excellent
work Tanlac was doing and decided 10
see what it would do for me, and just
want to say the results have been even
bevond NV expectations The swelling
has all disappeared from my limbs ana
L don't have to wear the rubber STOCK
ings now at all. My appetite has re-
turned and 1 can eat what want anu
I sleep like child every night Inc
swelling and pain have gone out OF my
hands and fingers and l can use the"
freely and I'm now doing all my mousse
work. 1 realize I'm n years old and
never expect to feel like young woman
but what Tanlac has done for me makes
me feel years younger and 1 recommend
it to anyone, young or old, who suffers
like l did,.
Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu-
sively by Eugene Jacobs drug store and

'The Fugitive" is an extraordinary
film that arouses the enthusiasm
of the spectators at once and holds
their undivided attention to the
end. Miss Labadie is a clever ex-
ponent Of the part in which she is
cast and with the play of the type
she appears in today she will
doubtless add many laurels to her
wreath.

THE CHATTEL"

In ''The Chatter E. III. Sothern,
world famed actor of the legitimate
stage. is equally as good as he is
when appearing on the stage in
stead of in front of the camera.
The large crowds which are attend
ing this play at the Rialto attest
to the popularity of this star OF
stars. Peggy Hyland. a beautiful
and very clever English actress, is
capable in her difficult role. The
brutality and repentance of the
type of man who looks on his wife
as a pawn is shown wildly.

THE MORGAN HOUSE

f.NefJ iay There Is COlliuSill upon tHc
influence of the house of j. P. Morgan
" Co in maintaining and increasing
our financial strength. The business done
by this house as the commercial agents
of Great Britain must be enormous, and
it is recognized that this business has
been very skillfully handled. The house
has been instrumental in the negotia-
ton of some of the very large war loans.
Yearly Loco 0O0,0D represents the aggre-
gate OF loans of this kind negotiated by
American bankers, of whom j. P. Nor
gan & Co. We're the leaders, Almost all
OF this money has been expended or
will be expended in the United States.
The American bankers have gained fine
recognition in the financial centers of Eu-
rope for the skill with which they have
hardled original problems and the abil-
ity they have displayed in so financing
the needs of the world as substantially
to change the United States from the
condition of debtor nation to that of
creditor nation. There is now no longer
any doubt that whatever be the outcome
of the European war the United States
will have attained a place thought not
pre-eminently in the sun at least suf-
ficient to enable the nation to be favor
sb,y compared with Great Britain.
The last of American securities favor
ably to feel the effects of Ame, lean pros
perity will be those issued by railroad
companies. But it has been observed that
within the past week or 10 days financial
leaders are of the opinion that, leaving
the labor trouble out of consideration, the
railroads of the United States will by the
end OF this year find it possible to OBJ
t;,in fresh capital. although perhaps not

Howard Elliott, president of the New
Haven railroad system, says the Ameri-
can railroads will need for 10 years il

GREAT DOMESTIC INDUSTRY

One OF the features of the present day
situation which is spoken of with gratifi-
cation is the demonstration of the unpre-
cedented buying power of the American
people. Some of them have recently in
vested in securities dealt in upon the
floor of the New York exchange, and
the presumption is that before the end
of the year the public will, as the saying
is, he in the market.
All the indications point to renewed and
very heavy buying of munitions of war.
The United States must purchase heavi-
ly of commodities of this kind. One of
the best estimates is that within II
month at least 81, 900 100000 more will have
been expended in the United States, both
by our own government and by the bel
ngerent nations for munitions of war.
Another reason given for the confidence
in the maintenance and increase of do
mesti'. prosperity is the certainty that
good imports will continue in large
amounts until the close of the war. Re-
ports which come to New York from the
middle west and far west tell of con-
stantly increasing strength in money re-
sources Notwithstanding the somewhat
disappointing harvests of this year.
Occasionally the public gets glimpses Of
tae great earnings of the industrial cor
porations. Some of these are known to
be phenomenal. They explain in part
the heavy increases in bank deposits and
also in the lack of demand for funds,
althor gh one or two of the larger in
dustrials engaged in the manufacture of
munitions of war seem to have lacked
skillful management. The trouble, for
instance, with the Remington company
ii there was zeal trouble-was due not
to stagnation or lack of profits, but really
to congestion of war orders. The fact
that William Rockefeller is giving his
counsel AID assistance to this corpora
tion-which is enormously rich-is suffi-
cient to justify the belief that out of the
congestion of riches will come orderly
and scientific business management which
will make these riches available

New York, September 26.-(Speciai.J
There may be some shortage in the crops,
hut the impression which commonly pre-
walls among the business leaders is that
this is likely to be more than made good
by the high prices the farmers receive
for them 1t would not astonish some OF
the experts if Indian corn fetches as much
as 81 bushel. There may not be as
much corn for the railroads to haul-al-
tho Ugh presumably there will be an aver
age crop of Indian corn-but il the high
price of 81 a bushel is reached then
the railroads will be indirectly benefited.
The farmers will be in a position to
make many purchases of commodities
which must be transported from the
manufacturing centers to the farming
ccr munities
Occasionally a prediction is made that
wheat will command as much as 81 a
bushel, but those who are best informed
are persuaded that the highest price
for wheat will not be in excess of 81. 80
q bushel. The entrance of Rumania into
the war will have some effect upon the
price, although not as much as some
of the authorities think. Cotton, also,
is to command a high price, and no
matter how much the narvests amount to
the planters are likely to receive more
money for their cotton than in any pre-
vioUs year.
OF course, if there were no European
war the shortage In our crops-what-
ever that may amount to-would some
what impair business prosperity. Never
theless, the farmers have large stocks
of food grain left over from the abundt
ant harvests of 1914 and 1876.
The crop situation does not appear
greatly to disturb the leading financiers
They are looking ahead until the close
of the year 1916 They are persuaded
that the money market will not at any
time in the next five months become
stringent. There is some reason for sus-
pecLng that another foreign loan may
be negotiated before the close of the
year. Should this be so, no one doubts
that it will instantly be absorbed by
the American people. The bankers are
speaking with qualification of the man.
rer in which the latest of the loans to
Great Britain, amounting to $500, 900,
was done SO quickly as to cause recollec-
tons of them amer in which gilt-edsed
securities, like New York state bonds,
were swiftly absorbed. The American
people have learned an important lesson
respecting the credit and resources which
are behind these foreign loans.
