HAPPY MOTHER SAYS. HER SON LOOKS LIKE A DIFFERENT BOY
q Don't Feel Like the Same Boy Either" Chimes In
 Young Campbell

My son is so much better since talk ing Tanlac that he doesn't look like the same boy" said Mrs. l.. Camp son, w. H. Campbell, whose condition of i'll health has been the subject of great concern to his parents. Mrs. CampbelIs husband is engineer for the Acme Building and Supply company of Meridian, Miss, and the family resides at 1417 Fifteenth street, that city.
 "Yes,' added the son, who had come in just in time to hear his mothers 8 remark. q don't feel like the same boy, either, foreI am gaining and feel ing better every day"
 He has had a bad form of stomach trouble for the past three years" con- tinued Mrs. Campbell "and for sev- eral months the boy was actually so bad off he had to live on milk and orange 1uice and a few eggs. lie had job with tile street car company, but had to give it up on account of his condition.
 He simply couldn't eat anything that would agree with him and he would suffer so much with griping and pains that he'd have to be up and down all night.
 We had several doctors to see him and they said number of different things was the trouble, and advised us to send him to a hospital. He wasn't able to do anything in the way of work and nothing seemed to do him any good until we found out about Tanlac and got him started on it.
 He is now on his third bottle and he has improved so much that you'd hardly know him He sleeps well at night and gets up in the morning bright and cheerful and all his old troubles have left him. It had been three years since he could do any thing to help around the house, hut now he cuts up the wood and kindling and can do just anything like that.
 We are all mighty proud of what .Tanlac has done for my boy and we are glad to recommend it"
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu- sively by Patton-Pope Drug company and Eugene Jacobs Drug store; in Ensley by D. w. Morris Drug company, and in Bessemer by Pegram- Patton Drug company.-Adv.

Tn many cases steam plants are burning bran They cannot get boats to ship the bran and it is drug on the market, therefore much cheaper than coal or other fuel Most railroads are burning large quantities of wood with which they mix a little coal.
 PEOPLE ARE HOSPITABLE
 ''The people of South America are very hospitable and are always glad to talk business with a man from the United States who shows them that that is what he wants to do. The United States manufacturer has had a reputation in some places down there, however that has not been exactly complimentary. This seems to have passed or to be passing, however. Another thing that has done considerable harm is the .'hot air that is being indulged in by our press and trade journal publications regarding trade pros- poets there.
 'It is always a surprise to a North American to see the cities of that coun- try, they say. At least I know it was so to me. They are beautiful and the climate is almost ideal, not getting too hot or too cold. In some ways you find their customs entirely up-to-date. and in others behind the times. As an in- stance, the Royal hotel in Valparaiso is fine marble building and of grand ap- pearance from the outside, but upon en- tering you will find that it has not a single private bath.
 We had very pleasant trip, however, with enough fear Of danger to make it interesting. The day before leaving Buenos Aires I learned that some pros pective travellers from Europe had been advised to cross over the mountains and go up the west coast We came down the west coast, spending three weeks in Chile, thence across to Argentina. The boat service on the west coast is not so good as on the Atlantic. so we decided to risk an English boat for New York, the steamship Vauban of the Lamport & Holt line. A bomb explosion had occurred on the Tennyson, another boat of this line, about three weeks before our departure, and shortly after we embarked it was rumored four bombs had been taken off our boat just before sailing. There was very little light on our ship. Canvas was put up around the promenade deck. All shutters were closed and the port holes darkened. There was not light visible from the outside of the ship. In spite of all rumors. however. we made the Journey of 22 days. from Buenos Aires to New York, without incident, except c severe gale the last night. which upset
