mrs. i'll. BROWN, OF.
COLLEGE PARK, HAS
GAINED 70 POUNDS
WAS CONFINED TO BED AND
CHAIR FOR TWO YEARS, AND
THOUGHT SHE WOULD NOT
LIVE LONG.

''You can tell them that it helped
my wife, too; and of all the people
that have made statements about get
ting benefit from Tanlac I believe we
have the most cause to be thankful,
for she thought she wouldn't be iv-
ing long and the doctor didn't give
me any encouragement"
This remarkable statement was
made by Mr.. ]. L. Brown, a we'll
known carpenter of College Park, At
lanta, in conversation with DR.. E. B.
Elder. Mr.. Brown added very seri-
ously that he felt unable to express
in words his great appreciation for
what Tanlac had done for his home
and the mother of his eight children,
and then went on to say:
"For over two years she has had
to live practically on nothing but
milk, being bothered as she was with
a bad stomach trouble that kept
dragging her down until she was
hardly more than a living skeleton
She didn't seem to get any strength
ening rest at night and simply had
no energy for anything. In fact
she spent about all her time between
her bed and the chair and didn't fee
like taking an interest in anything.
"She had a mighty bad breaking
out on her ankles, too, and all the
way up to her knees and these places
would then swell up terribly. Hel
color was bad, too, and it just looked
like nothing on earth could ever dc
her any good or liven her up.
''Well, some strange things harper
in this world, and the change in hel
is certainly one of them, for it was
about a month ago that she was al
bad off as she's been at all, and now
she's a we'll woman and I m sure &
happy man! She has taken JUS
three bottles of Tanlac and weighs
120 pounds-that is, she's gained Il
| pounds since she began taking it.
"My wife now eats heartily, sleep:
good and feels as strong as she die
years ago. She is now doing all hel
own homework and cooking and says
she will never be able to say enough
about this Tanlac. We don't mint
who you tell about this, for it's moth
ing but the plain, simple truth-anC
that don't hurt anybody"
Genuine Tanlac is sold exclusively
in Pensacola by the Crystal Phar
macy.-Adv.

MILLIONS SCHOOL
BUILDING TROUBLE
ABOUT ADJUSTED
SPECIAL 10 THE JOURNAL

Milton, Fla, Aug. 21.-Despite the
many exaggerated and more or less
unfounded rumors that have gotten
abroad in reference to conditions at
the Milton school building, the proba-
bilities are that, since the fair wealth
er has set in, the trouble viii be cor
rected in few days now and at small
cost. At any rate, it is contemplate
ed that the fall session of the school
will open on time, September IL, and
that Milton will have the best school
and Santa Rosa the best High School
in the history of either.
It is but fair to correct some of
the statements made concerning the
trouble at the school building, some of
which have gained wide circulation,
even appearing in The Journal. One
report had it that ever since the July
storm, the foundation of the school
building had been sinking at the rate
of from eight inches to foot an
hour.
1t is probable that, due to the ex-
cessive rainfall and wet weather
since July 4th, a ''wet weather
spring" has developed under the build
ing, causing the basement rooms to
hold water. There has not been
enough dry weather to permit of any
work to remedy this and the water
has naturally accumulated, The wa
ter standing there has tended to
discolor the walls and has furnished
a breeding place for mosquitoes and
is, of course, Objectionable, but no
serious damage has been done.
It is thought that the authorities
and the contractor will be able, with
out controversy, to decide as to who is
responsible for the leak ard that the
trouble will be remedied without de-
lay and at the cost of only few dol
lars.

SOME TEACHERS
ARE APPOINTED
BY SCHOOL BOARD

R. R. Riley was appointed by the
board of pubuic instruction in session
Monday night to the position of prin-
cipal of the school at Century, sue
ceeding ]. 7. Harper.
The board also appointed the fol-
lowing assistant teachers in the
school: Miss Faye Rhodes, Miss jean
cite Mcmillan, Miss Inez Walker,
Miss Mildren Mcdonnell, and Miss
Kate Coley.
Many matters concerning the school
affairs in the Fights district were pre-
sented to the board by J. H. Jones,
chairman elect, of the board of trus-
tees. The most important problem
confronting the district, and one
which many of the county schools
are facing, is the growing necessity
of high school separate from the
other grades.
Mr.. Jones urged the board to take
action on the matter, az the situation
at the Century school is becoming
! more acute each year. He stated that
while the board of trustees had taken
no action on the matter he was GER
tain that they would be willing to
furnish the school house, and all sal
airy funds over fifty dollars each
month.
In the same district provision was
made for teacher at the negro
school No. "a, which offered to fur.
nish an additional room, if the board
would appropriate the salary of the
teacher.
A. E. Wise was appointed princi.
J pal of the school at Bluff Springs, The
J faculty of this school was appointed
at the last meeting of the board.
/ H. E. Franklin was awarded a con
tract for making the necessary re.
pairs and alterations at school No. 1
on North Hill, to fit it for the High
school which will be transferred from
the building on East Hill. The work
consists chiefly in moving partitions
and cutting windows and doors. The
bid was for $76100.
The board decided to make a divi.
sion in the school at Pine Barren, fit.
ting it for more work this year. Pro
visions has already been made fol
two teachers, and the further i'm
provement is expected to better adapt
the school to present conditions.
