EVERYBODY SEES A
CHANGE IN FATHER,
SAYS GRATEFUL SON
Farmer Suffered for Over Twenty
Years and Paid Gut
Thousands

my father has suffered from
chronic stomach trouble for over 20
years and has paid out thousands OF
dollars on medicines and doctors,
said G.. w. Slayton, well-known
Cobb county farmer, who lives near
Smyrna, a short distance out of At
lanta.
I'VE tried nearly everything try
ing to cure him, and he went off to
the springs, thinking maybe the
water would help him, but it just
looked like nothing would reach his
trouble. Then he tried dieting, and
lived on liquid food until he almost
starved-but even that failed to do
any good, and he just kept going
from bad to worse.
81 don't guess there ever was a
case as stubbon as his, and if there
ever was a confirmed dyspeptic he
was one of them, and guess he
would have been one yet if it hadn't
been for this Tanlac.
"The first we heard of this medi-
cine was when my father saw an adj
vertisement in the papers from par
ties he knew in Tennessee, who were
friends of his, and he knew what
they said about it was tn truth-so
he got it right away and began TAX
ing it.
"Well, sir it acted just ike
magic,-and everybody notices the
change in father now-why, he is
just like a different man, and sits
down to the table and eats like
farm hand Only yesterday, he ate
pork and turnips for his dinner. and
ate so much we We're actually afraid
he was OVERRIDING the thing, but he
lau2 he'd and said nothing hurt him
now, and that he was hungry and
expected to eat and make up for lost
time.
Now, when medicine will do
things like that. | think people ought
to know about it. and want to say
right now that | would not give one
bottle of Tanlac for all the other
medicines and health resorts in the
country put together"

WOMAN'S CLUB ACTIVITIES

wonderful meeting. The latest word

by experts and club women There
will be some nevcr-to-he forgotten

words, some of the very best will be
given by club women Who would
hesitate to place Mrs Penny

And could any man surpass Mrs.
Thomas G. Winter, chairman of the
literature department when she sets
forth the eternal verities to be
found in books and what they ought
to mean to us?
These and others will give I'M
mixed pleasure and at the same time
strengthen faith in woman's ability
to grapple with the problems that
confront mature men and women to-
day. Those who heard the Rev.
DR. Carter Helmn Jones at Portland.
Ore, last June know that he will de-
liver an epoch making address. Club

David Livingstone started on his
last great journey into the heart Of
the Dark Continent in 1865. It was
not until November, 1871, that Stan

Livingstone turned Stanley from a

WHY NOT FLORIDAIZE
ALL OF FLORIDA

That is the proposition-both now
and henceforth. Why not?
Why not make this Florida state
in actuality?
AT the present time Florida lacks
many of the essentials for the state
hood under which we are operating
and it is time, and past time, that
the people take this matterfi rmly in
hand and make an effort to have a
state rich unto itself in every way.
A state may have for time bound
less success in every way-even
| though it be totally unproductive;
and Florida, being productive in
many ways, could not avoid being
successful even the state felt so in
clined its immense shipments of
fruits and vegetables, its fish and
phosphate, bring back large amounts
of cash; and it's climatic conditions
which must be taken directly upon
the spot prove magnet which, once
! enjoyed continues like good resolu-
lions to permeate the system and
call for frequent visits
But not yet have we Floridaizel

is not sufficient that additions" be
plated and made into pleasing sites
FLOR MAGNIFICENT homes 1t is not
enough that all join in telling of the
climate the ocean breezes. the
charming sunsets, and the thousand
and one incentives for the making of
homes These things will never suf-
fee to make Florida what it should
be-
The man who will enter into the
art of extracting values from the
soil is far, far above the man who
places improvements upon the soil,
| The man who will realize that there
are opportunities lying dormant and,
! thus realizing, proceed to make the
most of the chance, is the one to
whom the monument should be
raised The man who will essay to
render unto Florida the things
which by right belong to Florida is
tho man higher up,
Floridaize Florida. Let there be
an awakening of IA movement to
make the state supporting in an
hundred lines where it is now in but
few, Let there bet movement to
take ADVANTAGE of the thousand OPP
portunities which can be made to
pay ample profits upon the invest
ments besides the keeping of mil
lions of dollars within tho state
which are now disturbed in many
portions of the union. 1t is not well
to be of an opinion that Florida can
live wholly within herself; but it
is good to provo that to a great eX-
tent the sums which are being sent
out of the State for what may be
easily produced within the state is
an expenditure of neither good finan
cial ability or common sense.
There might be volume written
on this topic There mi 2ht be thous-
ands of pages sent forth to show the
outside world that Florida is anxious
to have new blood and new capital
and new ideas and new impetus in
jccted into her veins. There should
be every effort made to secure these
nces so that the state may still be
proudcr of herself than ever before
All this and more. Let every resi-
dent declare in favor of the homo
