Everybody Sees a
Change in ather
Farmer Suffered for Over Twenty
Years and Paid Out Thousands

my father has suffered from
chronic stomach trouble for over
20 years and has paid out thous-
ands of dollars on medicines and
doctors. !" said G. w. Slayton, a
we'll known Cobb, county farmer,
who lives near Smyrna, a short
distance ont of Atlanta.
I'VE tried nearly everything
trying to cure him, and he went off
10 the springs, thinking maybe the
water would help him, but 1t just
looked like nothing would reach
his trouble. Then he tried dieting
and lived on liquid food until he
almost starved-but even that
failed to do any good. and he just
kept going from bad to worse.
II don't gEess there ever was a
case as stubborn as his, and If
there ever was a confirmed dys-
peptic he was one of them. aud |
guess he would have been one yet
If 1t hadn't been for this Tanlac.
1.-THE first we heard of this med
lcine when my father saw an ad-
Vertisement in the papers from
parties he knew in Tennessee, who
were friends of his, and he knew
what they said about 1t was the
truth-so he got 1t right away and
negan taking 1t.
"Well, sir. 1t acted just like
magic-and everybody notices the
change in father now-whY, he IS
Just like different man, and sits
down to the table and eats like 4
farm hand Only Yesterday, h,
ate pork and turnips for his dinner
and ate so much we were actually
afraid he was OVERRIDING the thing.
but he laughed and said nothing
hurt him now, and that he was
hungry and expected to eat and
make up for lost time.
NOW, when a medicine will do
things like that, 1 think people
ought to know about 1t, and want
to say right now that would not
give one bottle of Tanlac for all
the other medicines and health
resorts In the country put to-
gether."

Claiborne county needs baby
beef clubs and pig clubs to devel
op the boys who expect to remain
on the farm, yet are not able L
take a course at the A. & M. Col.
lege. Other counties are develop
ing their boys along these import
ant lines, and valuable results are
being obtained. If carried on 10
connection with the public school
work, with Supt. Russell at the
head, these clubs could be made
interesting to the boys as well as
wonderfully profitable. Here we

shown and where many prizes
could be awarded.

The committee appointed TO So
