Captain ]. P. Sharp Tells of His Trou-
ble-sTanlac Has Made New
Man Of Me-" He Says

Almost every man, woman and child
along the course of the st. Johns river
are either personally acquainted with,
or have heard of Capt. ]. P. Sharp, of
Jacksonville, who for more than six
teen years has been master of steam
ers and dredges for the u. S. Engi-
neering Department. Captain Sharp
called at the Bettes' Pharmacy, and in
an interesting conversation with DR..
E. B. Elder, the Tanlac representa-
tive, made the following statement:
ssI suffered with chronic indigestion
and stomach trouble for five or six
years and found nothing that would
help me until was told about Tanlac.
I am now on my second bottle of the
medicine and feel like different man.
Before / began taking Tanlac, ]
was always upset, nervous and out OF
shape. I suffered a great deal with
biliousness and constipation, my ap-
petite was poor and my meals hardly
ever agreed with me. ] finally got SO
nervous I actually dreaded to see
night come as I could not sleep. Gas
would form on my stomach, causing a
heavy, uncomfortable feeling with a
burning sensation. I was also troubled
good bit with heartburn and was
often overcome with dizzy spells. ]

wasn't myself at all.
ct became interested in Tanlac thru
several friends of mine who had been
benefited by the medicine. Since tax
ing Tanlac I actually feel like have
been made all over again. I no longer
suffer with Indigestion, my appetite is
good and I sleep well at night. Tan
lac has helped me more than any
thing else have ever taken, but / am
going to continue to take it because
am satisfied that I will get even more
wonderful results. I expect to tell al
my friends about what it has done fol
me-"

younger man, amazenent written all

The old man led the way inside his
little shop and pointed to the collec-

months ago.
So the matchmaking was begun.

MATCHMAKER
BY ANNE RICHMOND.

1t was a warm day in April and
old Bolts was sitting Just in front of
his shop door when along came a
dainty figure of a girl with large
square package.
Il have some books to SELL" she
said.
The fact that she was shabby and
that the dark blue suit she wore was
almost as faded as his own served as
q tie of sympathy.
So it was that he bought the books
without looking at them more than
specifically, and paid her what with
him was a maximum PRICES cents a
volume.
She was Miss Pansy Mead and her
address was the fifth floor back in a
lodging house In little side street
near by.
Then, when Pansy had gone, he
looked at the books for which he
had paid $3.75-a sum which the
timid Pansy had seized with avidity.
The secondhand man knew that look
OF eagerness, for often the wares he
bought were sold for the price of
meal or nights shelter.
The books seemed to be fairly new.
For this reason he determined TO put
them in one of the shelves, in place
Of some OF the less attractive volumes
that were then occupying the place
of honor.
But when he looked closer at the
books he was more than amazed.
Some Of the volumes In the set were
missing.
He waited for few days, thinking
that perhaps the original owner would
return with the missing volumes, but
he waited in vain. Then, one day, he
climbed up to the little bare room at
the address she had given. He found
the girl surrounded by piles of half
sewed white garments.
He explained to her what he sup
posed had been her mistake and the
girl seemed not in the least surprised.
Il am sorry," she said, "and /
would like to give you back the
money you gave me, but / am very
poor. Perhaps in a few weeks / shall
have more sewing to do and then
will bring it around. The money I
raised on the books made it possible
for me to make the first payment ON
a sewing machine. Then was able
to get this work to do. But they pay
so poorly; until I become expert 1t
means hardly enough to pay the rent
and for my simple meals. The worst
of 1t is that do not possess the miss
ing volumes. They were given to me
this way and had to sell them"
What was Old Bolts to to do?
and the secondhand man was musing,
over the fumes OF his pipe. Then a
brisk, welldressed man approached
I've got some books for sale. I'll LET
you have them for song. It's more
to have them out Of the way than any.
thing else that am bringing them to
you. There are fifteen volumes. I'll
let you have them for ten cents
apiece. I know that's cheap, but, to
tell you the truth, they won't be OF
much use to youe They are missing
volumes. Here are the first and third
volumes OF the Vicomte de Bragg
lonne,'" he continued.
The young man opened the suitcase
and took out the handsomely bound
books. Old Bolts stared and interrupt
ed the stranger.
And there's the second volume OF
Monte Cristn-'" he said withon
