the launch suddenly and with such force that there
was no opportunity for warning to be given or for
the lowering of feboats according to the survivors
who were brought in on the ATLANTA

know how it happened said Dick Wayson, captain
of the launch The boat unable to ride the waves

craft upside down.

Gladys Writes
To P. C.'S
Dear Senator Eaton:
prominent CItIzens)

Dear Senator Eaton:
Papa says you told him at the
Elks Club the other night that you
had lost your reputation, or had 1t
stolen while you were running for
office. l hope you don't care. 1t
isn't anything to worry about.
You know / don't care much what
other people think of me. Naturally,
| don't know much about it, anyway,
because people don't talk as freely
about myself to me as they do to
other people. And they keep chang
ing their minds, too. Mabel told me
that DR.. Watson said that II should
get an idea in my head, I'd have to
be operated on, because foreign sub
stances in the human body, etc. /
just turned the thing around and
told it about him and Bill Sammon
said it was the best joke he ever
heard. But / was sorry l did that
because the first thing / knew DR..
Watson had changed his impression
of me and had started to fall In love
with me. So you see.
What l can't get away from is
what | think of myself. Usually it's
all right, but get discouraged spells
and have to cheer myself up. Then
say: Now, Gladys, with your dis
position, you don't need to be pretty,
and with your face, you don't need
to be sweet. Can the crouch, and
stroll up to the Silver Palace and get
a Chero-Cola, and if its your lucky
day, you'll meet somebody to buy It
for you"
Chero-Cola is the right prescrip-
tion for the blues. After l take Ave
or ten cents worth of Chero-Cola my
stock goes up in my own estimation,
at least, from thirty cents to one
twenty-seven on the dollar-doesn't
that sound like DOC" Grover?
Really, Chero-Cola actus'-y makes
person more attractive-gives US
all happy, satisfied, friendly look.
Jimmie realizes what he and Chero-
Cola are doing for Lakeland, and he
says he feels as pious sometimes as
a missionary to Australia, or some
place like that.
So, IL you are worrying, Mr.. Eaton,
don't do It; drink Chero-Cola.
Your True Friend,
GLADYS.

PROMINENT LOCAL
Citizen NOW GIVES
HIS ENDORSEMENT
Charles A. Evans Suffered for 90
Years-"I Have Gaines 10 Pounds
on Tanlao and Feel Fine Now, He
Declares.

The best evidence Of a medicines
merit is what people who have actu-
| ally taken it have to say about it,
and this is especially true and be-
yond all question when such state
ments are made by people of good
character and published right in the
community where each and every
part can be investigated and verified.
II have gained ten pounds on
Tanlac. and feel like a new man"
said Mr.. Charles A. Evans. residing
at No. Z, The Columbus Apartments
at Ill East Forsyth street, in an in
teresting interview with the Tanlac
, representative a few days ago.
Highly gratifled over the wonderful
results he had obtained from the use
of Tanlac, Mr.. Evans called at Bette's
, Pharmacy solely for the purpose of
giving his endorsement of the medi-
cine. Mr.. Evans is bookkeeper and
born in Pensacola, Fla, but has made
his home in Jacksonville for the past
fifteen years, and is widely known.
Continuing, he said:
81 suffered twenty years with
chronic indigestion and of late years
/ have been bothered a good deal
with articular rheumatism. / was
hardly ever without pain and my
joints would ache and swell dreadful
ly. was very nervous and restless
and was also troubled a good deal on
account of my kidneys. l was con-
stipated most of the time and had
severe pains in my stomach and
sides. My lseep was very poor, and l
had to be mighty careful of what /
ate; in fact, didn t hardly know
what 1t means to cat square meal.
Il became very weak and lost a good
deal in weight.
Il tried many different kinds of
medicines, but nothing seemed to
reach my trouble and had just
about lost all faith in medicines, but
when | began to read the splendid
endorsements of Jacksonville people
on Tanlac, deemed there must be
something to the medicine, so 1
bought bottle and began taking it.

as ! have already said, weigh ten
pounds more today than l did when
l began taking it, and am gaining
every day. l have been relieved Of
the rheumatism and the swelling and
soreness in my joints has left me en-
tirely. My digestion is fine now and
have good appetite and can eat
anything ! want without suffering
afterwards. am not nervous like

pain about me anywhere now and /

Tanlac is the most wonderful medi-
cine l have ever tried, and / can
conscientiously recommend it to any
one who is troubled like l was above
all other medicines.
Commenting on the above state
ment, Mr. G. d. Willis, Southern
distributor of Tanlac, said:
f"fhere is not single portion of
the body that is not benefited by the
helpful action of Tanlac, which be
gins its action by stimulating the d.
gestive and assimilative organs,
thereby enriching the blood and in
MIGRATING the whole system. Next,
1t enables a weak, WORKOUT stomach
to thoroughly digest the food, pro-
noting the assimilation of the nour-
ishing products by converting them
into blood, bone and muscle.
1T overcomes, it is said, that great
cause Of disease, weakness. 1t rem
ders the body vigorous and elastic. 1t
keeps the mind clear and energetic,
and throws off the symptoms of ner-
vousness and indigestion. 1t builds
up the constitution weakened by dis
ease and mental and physical over
work, quickens convalescence and is
an unfailing source of comfort to all
sufferers of such troubles"

BROODING
With downcast eyes we must and
brood. "-Tennyson.


Lord, grant me respite from these
dreams
That torture us Away;
That poison body, mind and soul
The dreams we dream by day.
The dreams of sleep we laugh
away
AS fantasies of brain,
But the ones we dream with open
eyes
Are fraught with poignant pain.
We dream of wrongs that we've en-
dured,
OF friends who proved untrue;
Yet, after all the DRAWINGS done,
There's naught that we can do
To right the wrongs or heal the
wounds
Or re-instate false friends, e
Whats done is done"-the dream
begins,
And faith forever ends.
