WOULD NOT STOOP TO
PICK Up THE MONEY
~ HAD ABSOLUTELY LOST ALI,
INTEREST IN EVERYTHING"
SAYS MRS, WOOTEN.
SHE FEARED THE WORST.
Is Strong, Happy Woman Now, But
Once Her Folks Seemed to Have
, Lost Hope Of Her Re-
COvery.

Il had gotten in such bad health
that | did not take any interest, in
anything before took Tanlac, and I
often told my folks that If | should
see money on the floor l would not
stoop to pick 1t up" said Mrs. r. NJ.
Wooten, Of 1853 Morgan avenue,
Greenville, as she began to tell how
Tanlac had changed her condition
from that Of almost an invalid to a
healthy, strong, happy woman. Mrs.
Wooten's statement follows:
II suffered from a complete physi-
cal breakdown and the after-effects
of long drawn out spell Of malaria.
| was very weak-so weak that l was
III bed at least half Of every day, and
did not try to do any of my house.
work for rather long time. My
appetite had left me and it seem ed
that didn't want anything to eat
and I couldn't find much to tempt nv
appetite. l could not sit up long at
time, and | had absolutely lost all
interest in everything.
Il had been In very bad health for
two or more years aid | sure was a
SICK person too. | had begun to
wonder If ! ever would get we'll. or
even little stronger, and | could
tell by the way my folks talked that
they had about lost hope Of me ever
getting we'll again.
Then somebody told me to try
Tanlac, and began taking it. took
six bottles and | have gained at least
twenty pounds in weight. sure was
skin and bones when l began taking
Tanlac, but l am heavy enough now
and ] feel like new person.
Taniac did me a great deal more
good than all the other medicines |
took put together. and certainly did
take lot of medicine before | took
Tanlac. The Tanlac gave me a good
appetite almost from the start and |
soon began to improve right along in
health and strength, and now l am
able to do my housework and my iron
oLle to do my 'housework and my
ironing and | am strong and hearty.
| give Tanlac all the credit for getting
me out Of bed and on my feet again,
and no one can fully understand how
much Tanlac did for me unless they
had seen me before took it, and
had been almost an invalid for two
years before took Tanlac and then
only had to take six bottles to get my
strength back.
81 certainly can give Taniac the
highest praise, because it changed me
from an almost bed-ridden invalid to
a strong, happy and hearty woman -

CAlJ'T WHIP ALLIES ON FIELD.
Germ an Says that the Only Way Is
Through the Submarine,

s]ertn. Feb 19.-(Via Sayville.)
-Cou.}t Geo. F. Won Hertling, Bava-
rian prime minister and chairman of
the foreign affairs committee of the
Federal Council, is quoted in an in
tc'view as follows:
I'VE hold that the war nov must
in all circumstances and by all M cans
DC brought to decision. Field Mar
snal Won Hindenburg recently stated
that theoretically the war could be
continued indefinitely as our losses
wSre considerably smaller than our
increases in men; that our frontier
walls on the east, west and south
were unshakable, and that our eco
homlc lie was continuing as former
". although on a smaller scale than
III peace times, yet in reliable, safe
laShlth. Our adversaries, however,
can also in theory continue to fight
Indefinitely, provided they can main
tan the importatiOnS of war mate
rials across the seas. Therefore If
We wish to bring the war to an end
We must cut off these importations.
THE means to accomplish this lies
IN our submarine navy. Our peace
proposal was declined because our
enemies did not dare to confess TO
their people and their allies that all
those great promises by which they
were induced to enter the war and by
which they are holding them together
IN the war cannot be kept, and that
the entire military enterprise already
has failed, and the deceived nations,
instead of realizing their promised
attretions Of wealth and territory,
now are in financial and economic
chaos. We desire to bring the war to
an end because we are shocked by
wars sorrows. Our adversaries wish
to continue the war because they are
terrified by the horrors that peace
would bring.
The war draws nearer its termi-
nation. The final struggle will be Of
the greatest dreadfulness, but it must
he fought to the bitter end"
