DOCTORS PRAISE IS
TRIUMPH FOR TANLAC
Atlanta Physicians Wife Gains Fifteen
Pounds, He Declares.
TOOK THREE BOTTLES.
"Pm Obliged to Think Well OF a
Medicine That Accomplish.
ed What Tanlac Did,"

DR. J l. f Brantley, a prominent
practicing Atlanta physician, re-
Siding at 605 South Pryor street,
went into Jacobs pharmacy to pur-
chase another bottle of Tanlac for
his wife and Hade the following
statement regarding the benefits she
has derived from the medicine:
/ am obliged to think well Of a
medicine that accomplished what
Tanlac has in my wife's case. She
has gained all of fifteen pounds on
three bottles of the medicine and
she is now well woman in every
respect.
She has suffered from indiges-
ton and nervousness since 1909.
She could not retain anything scarce
ly on her stomach and she was
troubled a great deal by the forma-
tion Of gas. She suffered constant
ly with headaches and backaches
and was nauseated more or less all
the time. She could not sleep or
rest well at all on account of her
nervous condition, and she became
very weak and thin.
Il decided to buy Tanlac for her
because it was so highly recommend
ed for troubles like hers, and l am
glad to say the results have been
most gratifying. Gas has stopped
forming and she retains and digests
her food properly and has built up
wonderfully. The headaches and
pains in her back are broken up and
she sleeps well every night. I con-
slider her improvement almost re-
markable, and l can now recon-
mend Tanlac for what it has done
for her p"
Coming from the high source it
does, and especially from member
of the medical profession, this
straightforward utterance Of DR.
Brantley is more than a recommend
alton. 1t is triumph. Tanlac,
natures great vegetable tonic, cor
rective and system builder, is truly
one of the greatest discoveries of the
decade, and the best evidence OF
this is the confidence and high es-
teem in which it is held by the great
masses of people. No other medi-
cine has ever established the reputa-
ton Tanlac has nor any other re-,
ceived the high endorsement of
medical men and laity.
Tanlac. the master medicine, is
sold by Kingstree Drug Co, Kings
tree; Mallard Lumber Co, Greedy
vile; Farmers Drug Co, Heming-
way; S S Aronson, Lane; R P Hin
nant, Suttons; W d Bryan, Bryan.

The fellow who goes through life
kicking at other people usually is
propelled into eternity by kick
from the devil. Kicking don't pay
either the kicker or the fellow who
is kicked. The injustice of an un-
just kick leaves many a heartache
behind which rankles and grows in
to bitterness which lasts for months
and years. At times it ceases only
with the death of the victim. But
the victim of the kick is not the only
one who loses in the game. The
kicker makes reputation for him
self with every kick that he gives,
and that reputation follows him
through life. When the day comes
that he needs the services of a friend
he often finds that he has kicked
the only people to whom it is pos
sible for him to turn. He loses be-
cause he has kicked himself out Of
the confidence of fellow men. Don't
kick.

THURSDAY. NOV. 23. 1916
Plant Wheat

Now that the boil weevil is sure
to strike our State within the next
year, it behooves our farmers to turn
their attention to crops other than
cotton. With our soil and climate
we know Of no crop that would ben
eft the farmer more than wheat
raising, for with a good crop OF
wheat he need have no fear as to
the high cost of -four. With a soil
and climate conditions that are ca
pable of producing wheat, corn, and
such other crops as form the staff OF
life why should we depend on the
markets of the West for what we
need. Wheat is easily grown and
we hope to see the attention OF our
farmers turn to its culture at once.
Some of our farmers planted wheat
last year as an experiment, the re-
suits amply paid them for their ef-
forts, and while a great number OF
our farmers are planting wheat again
this year yet there are not enough
of them doing so. We want to see
every farmer in this county raising
this important crop, and ere long
we hope to see our people in a posi-
ton where they will not be depend
ent on the West for the commodities
that can, and ought to, be raised
here at home.
Some may complain that there is
no mill for grinding wheat into
-four in this section. This is not
valid excuse for already The Rec ord
has assurances that if the farmers
will plant and raise wheat a mill
will be established to put it into
good, merchantable -four.

Why Such Bad Roads?

From numerous authentic sources
during the past week have come to
us complaints about the bad con-
dition of roads in the county. The
roads complained of mostly are those
to the Cades, Bloomingvale and In
diantown sections. These roads are
in a bad condition in certain Sec
tions and should be repaired. Re-
Gently we have been over several of
the mostly travelled highways in the
county and our own observation
and experience has confirmed the
the Justice of the various complaints
heard from others. We don't quite
understand why this condition
should prevail at this time, for dur
ing the past few months great deal
of money has been spent on the
roads of Williamsb lrg by the Federal
Government as relief measure for
+be storm stricken sufferers of the
county.
The roads are now full of holes
and ruts, not to speak of many di-
lapidated bridges, DANGEROUS traps
