North Georgia Man
and South Georgia
Woman Praise 1t
L. L. Hooks, of Roswell,
Says He Was Almost
Down and Couldn't Work
at All. Gains IS Pounds
on Tanlac.

The following letter from the G.
IT. Lyon Drug Company of North Ros-
we'll, Ga, is self-eXplanatOry:
Mr.. G.. f. Willis, Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Sir-We are enclosing a
testimonial which we have jrSt re-
ceiyed from L. L. Hook, Of this place.
He seems very grateful for what Tan
lac has done for him, and every word
he says is the truth.
This man has been in bad health
for years, and was almost down when
we got him to try Tanlac. Now he
talks it to his friends all the time,
and is anxious to tell other people
what it has done for him.
"Yours very truly,
&c. T. LYON DRUG CO."
Mr.. Hooks statement, written in
his own words, follows below just as
it was given.
q suffered from one of the worst
cases of indigestion and stomach
trouble any man ever had. I couldn't
eat hardly anything and nothing
tasted right. At times gas on my
stomach would almost choke me.
Nothing agreed with me, and what /
would eat didn't give me any
strength.
81 commenced taking Tanlac be-
cause I saw what it was doing for
other people, and [ could see all the
difference in the world right from the
start 1t simply did wonders for me,
and made me feel like a new man.
Before taking Tanlac | couldn't
do any work at all. Now | am using
the pick and shovel every day, and
can do any other kind of labor | want
to. When | weighed the other day
| found | had gained 35 pounds.
That's what Tanlac did for me.
want you to send this to Atlanta and
have it published, for [ think every
body ought to know about this medi-
cine"
Another interesting letter was re
ceived from A. J. Gillen, proprietor
of large department store at Max
eys, Ga, and gives further evidence
OF the remarkable results now being
accomplished by Tanlac throughout
the South.
Mr.. Gillen said: 81 have custo-
mer here who was in bed three years,
and did not go to a meal at any time.
She had five fine physicians, and they
gave her ont. One bottle got her up.
After taking the second bottle she
kept house, and on the third bottle
she cooked and did all the house
work for a family of eight. I can get
this testimonial for you if you care
to have it,"

leaders, probably after the conference
at Republican headquarters, set for
the noon hour, on the question of a
recount of the vote in close States

2 PRISONERS
ESCAPE FROM
COUNTY JAIL
TRUSTEES" Break Two Yale
Locks and Get Through
Court Street Door
40 PHOTOS FOR PAPERS
Police Failure to Keep Bertll-
lon Records Make Recap
ture Difficult
40 PHOTOS FOR PAPERS

Two short term prisoners escaped
from the Dauphin county Jail between
$40 and o'clock this morning. They
were Edward Howard, aged 81 years
and w. L. Headrick, &c years, Serving
six and seven months respectively,
each on a charge of larceny. Both
were TRUSTEES and had the run of the
Jail. working in the bakery and cleo
q trical departments.
Getting out of Jail was not hard
task for the prisoners, who, 1t Is be-
lieved had planned their escape some
time ago. The most difficult work
they had to do was break with an
Iron bar two Yale locks, each of which
held iron doors leading from the coal
bin on the west side of the jail into
Court street.
During yesterday and last evening
Headrick borrowed money from
other prisoners saying he was to get
q check to-day and would pay it back.
The Escape
Both Howard and Headrick were
committed by the city police depart
ment. They were committed without
their Bertillon measurements or finger
print being taken, and this, it is be-
lieved, makes their recapture almost
an impossibility, as they only have to
change their clothing to make identit1-
cation difficult. The police have no
photographs to send broadcast, so as
You Understand Me" Windsor, sup
erintendent of detectives might say
There you are!
Headrick occupied cell No. on the
right side of the Jail, lower floor, with
four other prisoners. Howard was
