Mrs. Westbrooks Says Her Little Daughter Was AL ways Delicate Until
 She Took Tanlac

"I am ce.tainly very thankful for what Tanlac has done for my little daughter, said Mrs. J. F. Westbrooks, who lives at 260S Thirtieth avenue, North Birmingham, to the Tanlac representative who had called to see her a few days ago My daughter, Ansel, who is Il years of age, has been a sufferer from indigestion and pains in her shoulders and in her chest for a long, long time-in fact, all her life. We have tried many doctors and most everything we could hear of, but they did not bring her any relief.
 She was so nervous and unstrung and so run down that don't believe she could have gone through the winter. She couldn't eat hardly anything at all and sleep was impossible for her. We would be up every night with her, and it was pitiful to see her in that condition, and to think, too, that we had done everything we could without any benefits from it. Especially in the summer months she would get in very rundown condition and would lose weight, and you can see that she hasn't any too much weight to lose, and it was very aggravating to us all.
 T had read in the papers about Tanlac and a neighbor who had taken it insisted that I get bottle and give it to Ansel. After lot of persuasion I bought bot tie and put her right on it, and it looked like from the first half of the bottle that it was the very thing she had needed. She has taken three bottles now and am certainly thankful for what it has done for her. She sleeps just as well as could be at night and eats everything she wants She was eating popcorn and bananas yesterday and they did not seem to have any bad effect on her at all. She has gained little in weight and I believe that now she is eating and the food seems to thoroughly agree with her that she will gain steadily
 'She does not seem to be bit nervous and doesn't object to taking the Tanlac one bit. She is just as bright and cheer ful as can be, and it has made us all mighty happy about her recovery, and we all are glad to recommend Tanlac as being the medicine that has done what lots of other medicines mailed to do. am glad to say a good word for it, and tell others of it's merdit.'
 Miss Ansel Westbrooks was in the room at the time and remarked, "If I had thousand dollars I would spend 1t all for Tanlac, because I feel so good and eat anything I want and can sleep so good and sound at night"
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu- sively by Jacobs Drug store and Patton Pope Drug company. In Ensley by the D. w Morris Drug company. In Bessemer by the Pegram- Patton Drug company. In Pratt City by the Gale Drug company. in North Birmingham by the Walker Drug company.--Adv.

Reports From All Sections Now Reflect General Re-

COPPER AND CROPS
 ADDING TO WEALTH
Northwest Especially Is Prosperous But Freight Congestion Causes Trouble in Certain
 Sections
By HOLLAND

New York, April 10.-(Special) "A day or two ago reliable information came to New York from Brunswick, Ga, telling of remarkable improvement in business and in industry in that city and it's vii cinity This activity is in part stimulated by the general advance of industrial pros- perity in other parts of the south. The Brunswick news was all the more grati- flying, since there have been intimations from Savannah that some disappointment prevails there and in the district of which Savannah is the center because business activities seem to drag.
 On the same day that the report was received from Brunswick, authoritative information came from the northwest This report followed by day or two the statments made by Julius Kruttschnitt respecting prosperity upon the Pacific slope. The lumbermen of Oregon are con- fident that there is to be great activity in their industry this year. So, also, in Cal ifornia, the lumber industry seems likely to become very active while the citrus fruit industry may make new record. Should there be, as MT. Kruttschnitt thinks likely, about 46,00O car loads of fruits marketed from the citrus growing region of California that would mean many millions of new wealth for those engaged in this industry 7
 The information from the northwest is especially gratifying That is true espe- cially of the mining sections Apparently the mining industry of the northwest is to make in the year 1916 new as well as very great record There never was more activity in the copper industry of north ern Michigan or in the iron industry of that section than is now the case there. The copper mines and the iron mines will undoubtedly yield so greatly that at the end of 1916 it will be possible to report that the aggregate product is much greater than at any time since these properties were exploited.
 Northern Michigan is to find an honor able and friendly competitor, so far as production is concerned, in the iron ranges of Minnesota. Those who are competent to give an opinion are convinced that the shipments of iron from the Minnesota ranges in 1916 will be the greatest that lave ever been made.

CITY BEAUTIFUL
 HINTS FOR SPRING
GARDEN DON,TS

Don't make the mistake of putting small plants in large pots, thinking that they will be benefited by it. Wait for them ing all the soil of small pot with roots. A plant with a small, weak root system is often seriously injured by giving it a large pot to grow in as 1t is not in a condi- tion to make use of all the nutriment in a large amount of soil. A plant treated of vegetable dyspepsia as result of giv- ing it more food than it can digest prop erly.
 Don't be in too great hurry to obtain results. Some persons think to accom- plish this by frequent applications of strong fertilizers in large quantities. This will force plants to rapid and always unhealthy growth, from which, later on, there is such to be most discouraging reaction. Be content with healthy growth, and give your plant a chance to make that naturally. More plants are in- jured by overfeeding than from any other cause.
 Don't think you can learn all there is to know about gardening from books. Books will furnish the theory. You must contribute experience in order to attain success.
 Don't put your house plants out of doors for the summer until the weather has be- come warm and can be depended on to remain so The first of June will be quite early enough.

 Tom Ratteree and Jim CroSley, who were sentenced to six months each for alleged larceny, were taken to the mines yesterday to commence their term of servitude. This case attracted wide attention, as they were alleged to have robbed Arthur Gaboury while he was unconscious after he and Roy Watson, who was killed, had been hit by a Louisville and Nashville engine at the Leatherwood crossing.
 Half of the morning was consumed in the criminal division of the city court selecting a jury to try Will Bar ton the third time on the charge of killing Jack Holland, a police officer which occurred December 23. 1914. The first witness in the case was Dr. E. M Sellers, who was called to Hollands S assistance at the time. The next wit ness was woman known as Joe Rush, who was an inmate of the house on Glen Addie street. where the trouble between Holland and Barton is all legged to have started. She testified that there was a perceptible interval be- tween the series of shots. Several shots were fired in succession, she said, and then there was a pause when several more were fired. The trial is attract ing a great deal of attention by req son of it being the third time Barton has faced a jury on this charge. It was this case that resulted in the dis orderly houses in Anniston being closed and since that time the city has been free of disorders of this character.
