 Before Her Eyes
HEART IRREGULAR
 AND FRIGHTENED HER
Says No One But Sister Knows How She Suffered. Now Well and Strong
 and Has Gained 25 Lbs.

'I have taken three bottles of Tanlac, and my condition is so much improved that I don't feel or act like the same woman. I don't know how much weight l have gained, as I haven't weighed late 1y, but I feel sure that I have gained 9 pounds" This remarkable statement was made by Mrs. Malissa Griggs, high iy respected widow lady, who lives at Sll Oriel street Nashville, Tenn.
 Mrs. Griggs, according to her own state ment has been a widow for five years and is in humble circumstances, with two children to provide for. She also states that after her second baby came four and one-half years ago, she has been an invalid, and after losing her husband has been making her home with her sis- ter, and has been entirely dependent on them, as she was unable to work on ac- count of poor health. She now states that after taking three bottles of Tanlac she feels strong enough to do most my kind of work and she expects to try and get a position and help pro- wide for her children. She has lived in Nashville for nine years, end is highly respected.
 Continuing, she said: q suffered ex- treme nervousness for five or six years caused from indigestion and stomach trouble. After eating it seemed that my whole system would rebel and become upset. My heart would futter and seemed to almost stop beating. I would have swimming of the head and seemed to be turning round and round. My food would sour and ferment in my stomach and would have to manage to throw up before I could get any relief at alL
 T was almost a nervous wreck. l couldn't sleep some nights even as much as one hour. If I dosed off, I would awake in fright scared half to death. Many nights I would get up and down unable to sleep at all. At times my flesh would become numb and jingle like needles piercing it. No one but my sis ter knows how I suffered. My eyes would get affected at times and dark spots would appear before them and last sometimes for hours.
 q saw Tahlac advertised so much and praised so much by so many people here in Nashville that I decided to get bot I had taken half of the first bottle I mo- ticed my nerves getting more quiet and I began to sleep better. Noises of diff ferent kinds which used to upset me so did not seem to bother me. My stom- ach began to improve and I got so I could eat yeght along.
 q have taken three bottles, and as I told you before, I don't feel like the same woman, and I believe have actual ly gained 25 pounds. Tanlac is a grand medicine. and I am going to take an- other bottle, although I sleep well and my indigestion is nearly gone"

PHILIP CARO- OFF
TO JOIN HIS SHIP
COULD NOT WAIT FOR THE BAT
TLESHIP KENTUCKY ANY
LONGER, AND LEFT LAST
NIGHT FOR NEW YORK.

Philip A. Caro-, the Pensacola boy
who is one of the chief pay clerks
in the United States navy, and who,
following his orders to sea duty had
been spending few days in Pensa-
cola with friends and acquaintance,
and awaiting the arrival Of the bat
tleship Kentucky from New Orleans,
could wait no longer, as he was ex-
pected to join the supply ship Culgoa
at New York by March 20, on which
date the Culgoa sails for Cuba. Hence
he shook hands with many friends last
night and on the northbound train,
leaving at 1920 o'clock, left for the
north.
Last week Mr.. Caro- received orders
by wireless to join the battleship
named. His instructions at that time
were to join the battleship Kentucky
at Pensacola, where the ship was to
call one day last week for the pur-
pose of leaving a company Of marines,
and hence go direct to New York,
reaching there in plenty Of time for
the young Pensacolian to join the Gull
goa, now hitting out. 1t Is reported
however, that the Kentucky's delay
was on account of the condition of the
Mississippi river, and that the ships
passage down the river was not safe
one for the present. That was one OF
the reasons advanced for the ships
stay.
Mr.. Caro- reports aboard the Culgoa
Immediately upon reaching New York
and next Monday the supply ship
1 loaded with fresh goods, refrigerated
meats, ETC., will leave for Guantana-
mo bay, on the south coast Of Cuba
where are gathered scores of naval
vessels. While the itinerary of the
Culgoa was not made public, it Is ex-
pected that she will be among the
large number of ships to put in al
Pensacola about the last of this
month, on their way back to northern
stations.

The Pensacola high school, after
having very triumphant season of
basketball, has also placed one of the
best baseball teams in the field that
it ever had. DR.. Beggs is coaching
the team, and during the last week he
has been putting the team through
some hard practice.
The first outside games of the sea-
son will be played when the team
meets Milton, in Milton. The team
expects walkaway and, without g
doubt, they will get it. They will re-
turn tonight, and tomorrow they will
go to DeFuniak to play Walton high
school of Mariana in the morning
and the fast Palmer College team in
the afternoon.
Last Saturday the Palmer team de-
feated one of Pensacola's best team
and of the three games that the high
school will play this will no doubt be
the best. A large delegation of stu.

company the team.
Those who will probably make the
trip with the team are: Bell, Thames

SAINT RANCISCO' AND
OTHER NAVAL SHIPS
COMING ON MAR. 80
MINE SHIP WHICH SPENT LONG
TIME IN PENSACOLA HARBOR
DURING PAST FEW YEARS,
WILL RETURN HERE.

About March 80, according to a cir
cular describing a "straggler" as re-
ceived here, the mine ship San Fran
cisco, will be in Pensacola harbor, and
the other ships of the auxiliary, which
are now on the south coast of Cuba,
are also expected to stop over in PEN
sacola bay for an undetermined stay.
Among the vessels in the auxiliary
squadron are the Dubuque, Vestal,
Baltimore and San Francisco. All are
familiar to Pensacola people, from
having been in port a number of times.
The San Francisco spent many
weeks in Pensacola bay in the past,
and the large number of men aboard
have had good times in Pensacola,
They will come Pensacola after five OF
six weeks on the practice grounds
on the south coast of Cuba, and of
course viii be happy to get ashore in
a port where possibly good many
of them have friends.
While nothing has been given on;
on the subject, it is believed that one
of the largest fleets will come here
about the latter part of this month, Of
very early in April, when it is now
planned for the North Carolina to re.
turn and remain as station ship fol

DUMMY Guns WERE
USED To BRIGHTEN
OFF 4 SUBMARINE
CAPTAIN NICHOLSON OF HARRI-
SON LINER DIRECTOR, BLUFF
ED U-B0AT WITH HARMLESS
PIECES OF SPARE SPAR.

Captain Nicholson, of the Harrison
liner Director, which was here in
January for a supply of bunker coal.
by his quick thought, saved his ship
and possibly the lives of his crew by
rigging up dummy guns aboard the
Director when he saw a submarine en-
deavoring to get bead on him to
send the ship to the bottom of the At
lantic, off the Irish coast. This is the
way he did it, according to a story
told a couple of days ago at New
York by man who claims to have
been aboard the Harrison liner at the
time:
-Four dummy guns made of spare
spars and mounted on the after and
quarter decks of the Harrison line
steamship Director saved the vessel
from becoming submarine victim,
according to c. A. Rivers, Of Santa
Fe, N. NJ, a horseman, who arrived
here on the steamship Camerona from
Liverpool.
'eMr. Rivers said that he was on the
Director when the incident occurred.
The ship left Pensacola, Fla, on
January Is with cargo for Liverpool,
he said. ON January 25, when about
200 miles from the Irish coast, a sub
marine was sighted several miles
astern. It Immediately gave chase, and
for two hours it hung on to US despite
the best speed the Director could
make. Finding that the submarine
was gaining, the Directors captain
gave orders to bring up from the hold
a spare derrick spar, and it was sawed
into four lengths which were mounted
in a conspicuous manner on the. decks
SO that they would resemble guns.
"'It was evident the dummies were
Immediately noticed by the U-boat
for it slackened speed and began tt
maneuver, evidently so as to present 9
difficult mark. Our captain to keer
up the deception, also did some ma
neuvering, and, without lessening his
speed, endeavored to convey to The
submarine that he was trying to gel
into position for a good shot. Oul
bluff succeeded. for the submarine
gave up the chase"
