MANY PROMINENT men

NOTED EX-MAYOR

FORMER MAYOR FRANK v. EVANS,
OF BIRMINGHAM, ALA, MAKES
STRONG STATEMENT.

.NNE of the latest additions to the
~ large and rapidly growing list Of
prominent men who have publicly in
dOrsed Tanlac for the good it has done
them, is the name of Hon. Frank V.
Evans, former Mayor of Birmingham.
Mr.. Evans is one of the best known
men in public life in Alabama today,
being at one time editor of one of the
SOuth'S greatest newspapers, the Bir-
mingham Age-Herald. He was also ex-
aminer Of public accounts of Alabama.
In telling of the benefits he had de-
rived from Tanlac Mr.. Evans said:
'For years I suffered with gastritis
and indigestion in the worst form.
was habitually constipated and had
pains in my shoulders and headache
continually. My appetite left me al
most entirely and everything I would
eat hurt me. Finally / got to having
awful attacks of acute indigestion, pal
pitation of the heart and smOthering
spells. For a long time 1 would have
one or more of these spells every night
and I would wake out Of my restless
sleep gasping for breath.

my surprise and qualification L began
to feel relief after the first few doses.
I kept taking the medicine and now my
recovery is simply the talk of Birming.

YES! LIFT A CORN
OFF WITHOUT PAIN!
Cincinnati man tells how to dry
up corn or caIIus so it lifts
off with fingers.

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because a few
drops Of freezone applied directly on a
tender, aching corn or callus, stops
soreness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens so it can be
lifted off, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle Of freeZone costs very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft corn
or callus. This should be tried, as it
is inexpensive and is said not to irri-
tate the surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get a small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house-adv.

1917, the number of cars of stock that

year. A fair estimate of the value OF
each car would be about $4,000, which

IT is seldom, indeed, that men OF prom

These well-knOwn men of affairs
have recognized in this medicine new
discovery and a scientific triumph in
the medical world. 1t is well-known
fact that these splendid Endorsements
have been given Tanlac time and time

feature Of our recently acquired Dan
ish West Indies is the fine harbor at
Charlotte Amalie, on the island Of st.
Thomas, according to q commercial
survey Of the islands by agents Of the
bureau Of foreign and domestic COM

This survey emphasizes the conven-
fence Of the harbor as a distributing
center for all Of the Lesser Antilles.
1t lies on the direct line Of communi-
cation between Europe and the Pan
anna canal. as well as in direct line for
vessels plying between the Atlantic
ports of the two Americas or between
the Atlantic and Pacific ports Of these
continents. 1t is 1,4OO miles from New
York, 1920 miles from the Atlantic en-
trance of the Panama canal and $50
miles from La Guaira, the chief port of
Venezuela. Its location commands the
Virgin passage to the Caribbean sea,

Mystery of Bird FLIGHT.

A curious fact concerning birds is
that the tip of the wing moves at prac-
tically the same speed in every species.
This is $50 feet per minute, or nearly
seven and half miles per hour.
Whether it Is the tiny wren or the huge
stork, the rule holds good, and even the
bee comes within it: Thus the bee has
a wing only a quarter of an inch long,
the sparrow's wing Is four inches and
the stork's twenty-seven. But the bees
wing beats 11,400 times in minute
the sparrow's 720 and the stork's only
1O5 times. If you multiply together the
length Of the wing and the number Of
beats you will get almost exactly the
same result in the three cases-namely.
stork, 1885; bee, 1850; sparrow, 2,SSO
But if ever a machine is made to fly
like bird it will have to develop far
more energy than these figures stand
for. A birds energy Of fight is not SO
great as is supposed. Although such
skillful fiers when aloft, many birds
cannot rise from level ground.-LondOn

Law n Slow "a t.oo,.

Peasants on the slopes of Mount
Aetna can still boil water over the lava
that flowed from the volcano during
the eruption of 1910. Lava, according
to Walter WOODBURY. Hyde of the Uni
versity Of Pennsylvania, writing in the
Geographical Review, often reaches a
temperature Of 1900 degrees F.
Even the ancient poets recorded the
tenacity with which lava retains its
heat, and Borelli, describing the great
eruption of 1869, says the lava took
eight years to COOL 1t is related that
steam was still rising in 1880 from
lava elected in 1887. And this is not
astonishing when we remember that
the stream Of molten lava which
reached the sea at Catania on that oc-
casion was at least 600 yards in
breadth, forty feet deep and contained
1852. 100000 cubic feet. 1t banked up
against the walls Of Catania, which
were sixty feet high, until it flowed
over the top and destroyed large part
Of the city. The huge promontory that
acts like breakwater to the harbor is
the remains Of that stream Of lava that
flowed into the sea.

Tn. Tobacco Habit.

If q man who uses tobacco will give
1t up for one day each week he win
keep himself from becoming tobacco
fiend." This is the advice Of wen
known doctor, who says that quite a
number Of men. including himself, have
adopted this plan.
''By leaving off tobacco for one day
week you give your system time to get
rid of the effects of the drug" he said.
'You will then enjoy your tobacco far
more, too, because you have become
unaccustomed to the flavor, and it is
therefore more enjoyable when you re-
sumo smoking.
"The effect of tobacco is general
sedative action on the nervous system,
which diminishes the power Of taste
and smell. That is why tea tasters sell
dom or never smoke.
Leave it off for day and the sense
Of taste RECEIVERS. Not only that, but
leaving Off tobacco for one day volunta-
rily breaks the tobacco habit, exercises
the self control and prevents one from
becoming slave to the habit"

Monster haystacka.

On the first approach to u Roumanian
village one is startled by the largest
haystack that the American will prob
ably ever have seen. Rod upon rod this
monster stretches upon the horizon.
The explanation is simple one. Hay
is one of the largest articles of produc~
ton in Roumania. Landed proprietors
and peasants, one and all. raise it and
depend upon 1t for their support. When.
however, a peasant feels grievances in
tOlerable, it is a matter OF no great
difficulty to set the proprietor's hay
afire-and no peasant in the district
would think of assisting In the detec-
ton Of the incendiary. So the law per-
mits the proprietor to force all the
peasants in the district to place their
hay with his, a record Of the weight of
each mans contribution being kept by
both sides, In the event Of fire-and it
now behooves both sides to guard
against all this-al contributors suffer
in roportion.--Exchange.
