YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE
TANIAC RESTORED
MY HEALTH"
ONCE LIVED ON MILK.
RESTORED By Tnnlac, He Says, "rvc

Old rrOublcS."

a few days ago Frank Richardson.
well known employee Of the Byrd
Printing Company, residing at 80
West Lake street, Atlanta, came into
Jacobs Pharmacy, and in relating his
experiences with Tanlac said:
about eighteen months ago.
while | lived in Knoxville, Tenn. [
made the statement that l wouldn't
take $500 for the good Tanlac did
me. Well. | just went to tell you
| still feel the same way about it,
| suffered with the most terrible case
of stomach trouble, which had fol-
lowed me for seven long years and
pulled me down almost to the point
OF despair. Tanlac gave me relief
when everything else had failed and
can never forget it.
"My diet was restricted to milk
and occasionally a soft boiled egg,
and | wouldn't dare touch meats Of
any kind. l was habitually consti-
pated aud extremely nervous No
matter what | would eat, l would al
ways have an awful pain in my sto-
mach, and this, with my stomach,
kept me awake for hours every night
My condition alarmed my wife and
was almost at the turn Of the road
where hadn't strength to follow my
vocation.
81 read about Tanlac helping so
many people who were afflicted as |
was. and | determined to try it.
| started to the drug store one evening
Tor my first bottle. and | was so weak
from loss Of strength and energy that
tainted. | managed to get back
home after so long and started on my
Tanlac. and the first few doses made
me feel better. | continued improv-
ing, and, after taking the fourth bot
change in my condition. found that
| could eat just anything wanted,
| and. for the first time in years.
could eat boiled ham and potatoes
and felt no i'll after-effects. The pains
all left my stomach, my nervousness
disappeared and | could sleep like a
| child. My troubles all went away
with those few bottles of Tanlac and
left me stronger and more energetic
than | had been in years. Yes, sir
eighteen months haze passed since
ranlac so wonderfully restored my
health. and it gives ME pleasure to
tell you that have no return OF any
Of my old troubles to this good day
and | have kept my average weight
all along. Tanlac made life a real
pleasure to me. and ! go about my
work with a feeling that reminds me

THE TEACHER TRAINING CLASS.
Last Monday Marked the Opening Of
Or0ncc'S Normal School.

An event Of not Il little import
ancc to OcOnee county and this sec
tion Of South Carolina was the open
ing OF a teacher training school III
Walhalla last Monday morning.
After the devotional exercises ad-
dresses were made by Hon. }. W.
Shclor. Hon. Harry K. Hughs. Super
intcndcnt II. w. Gasque. and Major
William J. Stribling. member OF
the County Board OF Education. Il. 4.
Smith. superintendent OF Education
conducted the exercises.
During the past year Miss Sal!ie
Stribling began a class in normal
school work in Walhalla. under the
direction Of the superintendent If
Education. Seeing the practical
value and efficiency OF this work the
state superintendent and Board OF
Education decided to encourage this
practical education Of teachers BY ap-
propriating funds for this purpose
Five OF these schools have been es-
tablished in the State. and the pio-
ncer work Miss Stribling did had
very much to do with having this
school located in Walhalla. Other
more influential sections OF the State
school put in one Of the larger
towns, but as this county began the
work it was favored with the loca-
ton.
Miss Stribling has been very Justly
elected by the State Board to do the
work. and Oconec county should ap-
prcciate and be proud Of this educa-
tional asset which she has, by her
service and influence. brought to her
people.
The greatest need Of our country
is better educational standards in our
country schools. and this is step in
the right direction. The future OF
many a boy and girl depends in
greatest measure on the example and
prccept given i'm the early school
days. We wish to commend that es-
pccially which is for the betterment
Of the thousands while We commend
that which benefits only the few, and
those few more able to help them
selves. W. 3 Aull

RURAL CREDITS.

The Courier is glad to note that
the citizens OF the Oakway section Of
Oconcc have taken hold Of the Ma
tional Rural Credits Association work
in earnest and with success. These
citizens are going to get in line for
the securing OF funds at low rates OF
interest and for long terms, and they
want the citizens OF other sections of
the county TO he in line with them
and to have the same advantages that
they will have. For this purpose Il
meeting has bcen called for next Sat
urday at Oakway. at . o'clock u. m
The call will be found elsewhere in
this issue
Recently the Oconcc Branch. Ma
tional Rural Credits Association, was
"orEanZcd at Oakway. with 100000
capital pledged. and in very short
while after the meeting $4,000 ad-
diti"nal was subscribed. with addi-
tional capital to come forward if
needed. This shows interest, ami il
shows confidence. But confidence is
not an essential feature in this finan-
rial undertaking, FOR the government
OF the United states is back OF the
great now plan. known as the nation
al rural credits law. and there is no
man foolish enough to be lacking in
confidence In our government. or in
the success OF any financial efforts
that our government may make. All
that is needed is an understandings of
the great new system OF financing
agricultural land owners at low inter
est rates and for long loan periods,
with the lands Of the borrower or
purchaser pledged as security for the
loan.
The Oc0nee Branch has elected Of
iicers as follows: President. Henry
u. Werner: vice PRESIDENT. Clifton II.
Miller. The directors OF the organi-
zation arc: G. H. Miller, ELIAS Earle
I. ID. Marctt. S. H.. Brown. Il. l.. Yer
ner; with the following appraisal
committee: II. l.. Werner, G.. II. Mil
Ter. s. l.. Brown.
This organization was perfected on
August 10Th. and Oconee has gone on
record as forming one OF the first
branches Of the National Rural
Credits Associations new feature
for o"r country, but by no means a
new plan. 1t has been worked in
OF her countries for MANY vn,rc ana
where er it has been in use il has
made farmers and agricultural work
crs independent landowners. 1t gives
opportunity to every man to own his
own farm by making the purchase
terms 20 liberal and the interest rate
so low that any man with viii can
make good.
We believe that this National Ru-
raj Credits law is going to be the
making Of the South. 1t presents the
opportunity that has long been need.
cd to enable the small farm renter to
becoHG farm and home owner. We
hope that the people Of Oconee are
goin" 20 take to this plan and rea,
all tho advantages that it Is designed
to give.

"The Red Widow"

In THE Red Widow which comes
to the Grand next Wednesday, John
Barrymore possesses the greatest OPP
portunity he has ever had since be-
coming a photoplay star for demon
strating beyond all doubt his right to
be called the foremost comedian of
the screen In the role Of Cicero
Hannibal Butts, the distinguished col
set salesman, who seeks to combine
his honeymoon and a business trip to
Russia, and who as result finds him.
self inextricably caught in a number
of comic predicaments involving the
Russian secret police and innumera-
BILE Nihilists, including the fascinating
Red Widow, to whom he is introduced
as the greatest living king-killer, John
Barrymore is screamingly humorous
in the depletion of his miseries and
his futile efforts to clear himself in
the eyes of the government and more
principally his wife, who herself be-
lieves that Butts has deserted her for
the Red Widow. How these humor-
Gus difficulties are at last explained
is unfolded in the final scene of this
sparkling comedy in the typical and
inimitable Barrymore manner.
