5. |. CASON GAINS FIFTEEN POUNDS
 IN SHORT TIME
Takes Tanlac Just to Please Wife-Says Results Are
 Marvellous

Laying brick is hard work, and it takes A lot of strength to stand up to it, and that's just what I didn't have before l began taking Tanlac, but now l am in old-time form again and can do as much work as anybody" said s. c. Cason, a well known brick mason, who lives at Vineville station on the North Bessemer car line, in telling of the benefits he had obtained from Tanlac.
 ''Yes, sir, I have actually gained fifteen Q5 pounds on Tanlac, and feel better than I have in many years. l believe Tn giving credit where credit is due, and that's why I am giving you my statement to put in the paper.
 q was always a strong and healthy man up until about six years ago, when I began to suffer with indigestion and general breakdown. Later my kidneys became affected, and l began going down hill fast. I took all kinds of medicines, but was getting worse all the time. It looked like all my strength was getting away from me, and lost considerable in weight and got so weak I couldn't hardly work at ak. My appetite went down to where didn't eat scarcely anything, and my sleep was bad. I was very dizzy and nervous most of the time. During my trouble I had two very severe attacks of acute indigestion that really frightened me.
 One day was passing Patton-Pope Drug Store with my wife and she said, That's where they sell Tanlac; l think I'll go in and get you a bottle.' I really didn't have much faith in it or any other medicine helping me, for I had tried so many different remedies, but just to please her told her all right, to get it.
 After I had been taking Tanlac few days I realized that I was doing about the best thing I ever did in my life. My appetite began to pick up, my sleep got better and gradually I felt my strength returning. I began eating a lot, and ev- erything agreed with me perfectly, the in- digestion disappeared and I soon realized that my kidney trouble was also thing of the past. I began to take on flesh, and by the time I finished my fifth bottle I weighed and found I had gained 15 pounds. My color also cleared up won derfully, I took on new life, and I tell you don't seem like the same man now.
 My wife is so delighted with the good Tanlac has done me that she puts little vial of 1t in my lunch basket every day. so I won't miss a single dose. She also keeps 1t on the dining table all the time so I won't forget to take it at meal time She says she is going to begin taking 1t herself In the spring as a blood tonic
 cdH lruLnAully say tIidt never nave seen anything to equal Tanlac, and I never miss the opportunity of putting in a good word for it.''
 Genuine Tanlac is sold in Birmingham only and exclusively by Patton-Pope Co., and Jacobs Drug Store In Ensley by D. w. Morris Drug Co.,; Bessemer, Pegram- Patton Drug Co.,; North Birmingham, Walker Drug Co.,, and Pratt City, Gale Drug Co.

entente allies the opinion is expressed that the Russian offensive has completely upset the plans of the central powers for an invasion Of Salonik and Egypt.
 In connection with yesterdays an- nouncement of a defeat of a German war vessel on Lake Tanganyika. in east cen tral Africa, half mile above sea level, it is announced that the British ships which accomplished the surrender of the German vessel were especially construct ed in England and transported to Af- rica. Until the arrival of these vessels the Germans dominated Lake Tangan- yika, which is the center of a large and important territory. The presence of British armed vessels on the lake will completely reverse the situation there. This is considered here as most oppor- tune in view of the forthcoming campaign in East Africa.

ADJUSTMENTS
"Everywoman''

Although the pilgrimage of 'EVery- ron.n~ in quest of love, as portrayed in Walter Brownes symboilcal oraina' has become familiar story to natrons of the theatre, it has lost none of ifs emotional appeal, while as stage spectacle it is still splendid ana imnressive. "Everywoman" has been presented in Birmingham during sew eral previous engagements, put mas lost none of its draWlns mower as indicated by the large mum Der of persons who witnessed the per formances yesterday afternoon ana last night at the Jefferson theatre.
 s'F,verywoman" is unique among theatrical offerings and enjoys a uls tinction to which it is justly entltleo' bv reason of the imaginative power revealed in the play itself and the re- markably effective manner in which IL has been staged. The scenes or EV- erywoman's' quest are yisuallzed Tn d way that is only possible to the moo ern theatre, with it's almost lnexnaust- ible resources.
 Miss Edna Porter is "Everywoman this season and right well she plays the part having the beauty that Is es- sential to the character she presents and histrionic gifts above the ordinary. Her climaXes were achieved Wlth eA- cellent effect and her elocutlon was faultless, while the charm of her voice added greatly to the enjoyment or her performance Miss Porter, brunette Is a sharp contrast to the dazzling blonde loveliness of Adele Blood, who played "Everywoman" the last time the piece was presented here, but she is more winsome and does not yield the palm to Miss Blood in any par ticular.
 There were some members Of the company playing minor parts who lacked the convincing qualities neces- sary to we'll rounded performance and suffered somewhat in comparison with their predecessors in these roles, but, as a whole, the deterioration, If any, was hardly noticeable. The prin- cipals were all competent. George Sydenham was an excellent Nobody, a part he plays with the skill of an ar tist. The young women portraying Youth, Beauty Modesty and Conscience were quite equal to the demands made on their abilities and Florence Gerald was admirable as Truth. Her perform ance throughout was of the highest ar tistic merit. Roy Clifford as King Love and Joseph Del Puente as Pas sion deserve favorable mention.

 Dewitt Young and sister present jug gling feature that is above the average. Young juggled everything that can be picked up in a room and does it with rare skill. Bissett and Scott in their dance review showed nothing unusual and presented the old time song and dance skit that has become anticipated.
 Dorothy De Shell and company, in a s6it which consumed 15 minutes, under the title of .Crookology," pleased some and showed a touch of cleverness.
