TRAVELLED FORTY
MILES FOR MORE
WONDERFUL IAALAC
J. D. HAWKINS SAYS HIS WIFE
HAS GAINED FIFTEEN POUNDS
ON THREE BOTTLES.
CAN'T. SAY TOO MUCH FOR IT
~ Declare | Never Saw Or Heard OF
a Medicine Doing as Much Good as
TanIac," Said Mr.. Hawkins in Giving
Out interview.

Pm taking a forty-mile trip to get
more Tanlac," was the remarkable
statement made by j. D. Hawkins, a
we'll known and prosperous farmer to
the Tanlac representative in Jacobs
Pharmacy, Memphis, Tenn, few
days ago
"Yes, Sir" continued Mr.. Hawkins,
Il live in Bartlett, Tenn, and l drove
eight miles to Raleigh this morning
and caught a trolley car there for
Memphis, which is twelve miles more,
so you see when I get back home I've
travelled forty miles and that ought to
be proof enough of what I think of
Tanlac.
II declare / never saw or heard OF
medicine doing as much good as Tan
lac. My wife has gained fifteen pounds
on three bottles Of 1t and besides it
has gotten her over troubles that have
been weakening her down for nearly
twenty years, and don't aim for her
to be without it. She suffered awfully
with indigestion and was growing very
weak and badly rundown. Every
single thing she would eat made gas
and give her severe pains in the
stomach. She had no appetite at all
and what little she would force her.
self to eat hurt her SO bad it seems
she would have been better off with
out eating. She suffered terribly with
nervous headaches and couldn't sleep
on account of it. She was SO tired all
the time she never felt like doing q
thing. In fact, she wasn't able to do
any of her homework at all. She had
tried everything without getting any
relief and l was about to give her up
in despair when l read about Tanlac
and got her bottle Of 1t.
81 just can't say too much for Tan
lac for my wife's improvement has
been wonderful. She can do all her
homework and before she could
scarcely get around at all. She is re-
Heved Of the indigestion and has a
good appetite. She eats most anything
she wants and is relieved OF the gas
and the pains she used to have. Her
nerves are quiet and she sleeps good
at night and don't have the sick head
ache like she did. AS I have already
siad she gained fifteen pounds in
weight and Is gaining strength and
health all the time since taking Tan
lac. She locks so much better all our
neighbors are talking about her inn
provement. It certainly has done won
ders for her and | wouldn't let her be
without 1t for anything and that's the
reason am taking this ferty-mile trip
today, to get more of it for her. I
certainly do indorse Tanlac, for
think 1t is the greatest medicine in
the world"

MCDONALD SMITH IS ILL
Former Metropolitan Golf Champion
Has Serious Case of
Pneumonia.

Macdonald Smith. one time metro
politan golf champion. regarded by
many as one of the best players in the

Wykagyl, is seriously i'll with double

dou btful. Macdonal Smith when he
came to this country six years ago was
thought to be one of the best of the
Scotch players, and it was predicted
that before long he would capture the
national open title. He tied with his
brother Alex and j. J. McDermott for
the championship at the Philadelphia
Cricket Club in 1910 and was third in
the playoff Smith led large field of

PLAN ACTIVE CAMPAIGN
.,z FOR SALARY INCREASE
Preliminary Work in Interest of
School Employees to Be Started
This Week.

: Preliminary plans for an active cam
paign for higher salaries for employees
of the public schools of the District of
Columbia probably will be made this
week. A meeting of the special com
mittee in charge probably will be called
this week by William ]. Wallis, chair
man.
Information is being compiled from
various sources to show that teachers.
jamtors and other employees are paid
on low scale as compared with those
in other cities. Organizations which
have signifed their intention of assist
ing the employees in the campaign are
being listed.
An argument which has been drawn
up by some of the high school teachers
and probably will later be presented to
Congress sets forth. in part:
The tendency has been more and
more during the last few years to throw
upon the teacher and especially the
high school teacher very many Of those
functions once exercised almost exclu-
sively by the parents at home. The
mere teaching. so-called. is stressed just
as sharply and insistently. but to it
has been added all those interlocking
student activities which now form such
an important part Of high school work
and which are so intimately associated
with preparation for efficient citizen
ship and proper individual development
along all lines. This has been made
possible because of the absolute free
dom of the teacher from financial wor-
ries due TO insufficient salary. The de-
mands upon the teacher are more than
double what they were eight years
ago, and when they require a much higher
a avd r.fo n-Y< md
their salaries at their present status
would deal a staggering blow to the
morale of the high school teachers of
the capital Of the United States as in
dicatiye of low estimate OF their ef-
forts for civic betterment as well as
an utter disregard for the Just claims
Of teachers as to the dignity and i'm
portance of their profession"

The "Ifs" of Christmas Time.

What mind can e'er the sentence frame
Or fashion cen the thought
OF how the world would be the same.
Or how. with evil fraught,
If Christ the Lord had never come
That lonely Christmas night
To turn the long. long age Of gloom
Into morn of light:
II His great light had never streamed-
We cannot think II through
II Bethlehem's star had never beamed
In the Judean blue.
II Christmas time had never been
Its glad cheer never known
And sinner bowed beneath his sin
Had never found the throne.
The heart grows sick-we cannot think
world thus clad in cloud
We liff our Christmas cheer and drink
And raise our voices loud
To thank the God of Christmas time
For love and peace and song
For every merry, CHEEKY chime
That swelis the tide along.
II Christmas morn had never smiled
on stocking hung at night.
To greet the wtde-eyed. happy child
With presents shining bright;
II hfe and drum and baby horn
Had made Christmas sound
Sweeter for than Handel's storm
Mid symphonies profound.
If loved ones sighed in vain
For tender tones that now are not
That ne'er will speak again
If birch and oak should never glow
Upon the smiling hearth
Nor Christmas carols make below
The sweetest spot on earth.
L-if! Nay. nay! No ifs We see
Where love hath lit the star
That shineth clear from Galilee
To where our darlings are,
And in their childlike noise and cheer
We see our ifs all fade
Our sunshine streams through all the year
From the Christmas God has made.
