Well that's just the state l was in
before l started taking Tanlac. Why.
I was so bad that everything in the
shape of solid food was impossible
for me and even eggs and milk and
the like gave pain and distress. |
also suffered from shortness of breath
and any little exertion left me all
tired out. I was so nervous and run
down that life was a misery, for |
could not sleep, and ! might say |
was living and that's all. OF course,
tried various remedies. but enjoyed
no real relief until taking Tanlac.
"Now. to my great surprise. as well
as to the surprise Of my friends who
know my case. enjoy a splendid APP
petite-eat most any food without
suffering later from i'll effect-my
sleep is sound and healthful and
there is no more shortness Of breath
Nervousness is all gone; / have gain
ed five pounds in weight and am feel
ing fine in every way.
That's why l praise Tanlac,' hap

Do you fully realize what the COM
munity in which you live means to
you Individually g.?
You hear Of wonderful commercial,
social, educational and religious adj
vantages, or fine stores, beautiful
parks and good roads in other locali-
ties, all Of which mean but little or
nothing to you compared to advan-
tages and convenience Offered YOU at
home. You are affected only by pre-
vailing conditions in your community
where you are benefited by advan-
tages and must suffer for lack Of
them.
Every one is more or less proud Of
the community in which he or she
lives, and justly so. However, 20 ME,
the height of inconsistency is persona
fled in people who pretend to be deep
" interested in local conditions, and
at the same time deliberately do those
things that tend to retard the dcvel-
opment of their home communities.
Those people who proudly boast Of
the advantages offered by their home
towns, as desirable places in which to
live, and then refuse 20 extend local
merchants their patronage, are as ri
diculous as the restaurant proprietor
who eats "out."

TOWNS NEED vim AND PUNCH"

Vim and Punch is the American
ideal. Anyone who lacks these twins
in his makeup is not wholly Ameri-
can in spirit. But our communities
must be this ideal also. Some of our
towns have anything-or is it every
thing-eXcept vim and punch. Need
ed improvements are rarely consider
ed. Organization Of community in
terests are not attempted. Corpora
ton for the public good is not thought
of. This surely is not what Ameri-
can vim and punch stands for.
Ever since the Lordsburg Chamber
Of Commerce was organized this city
has advanced into the "vim and
punch" class. You do not have to
remember back very far if you read
the daily papers to the publicity this
city received from its present move
and how only last week it was set up
as the best example in the southwest
for the town Of Tombstone, Ariz. vim

keep alive in Lordsburg. Get the

ENDING VICE NEAR CAMPS.

Uncle Sam is seeing TO il that the
soldier BOYS from Camp Cody are not
thrown into temptation.
u will be remembered that certain
cities in which army camps had been
established proved to be anthing but
morally clean communities. The GOV
eminent. however, with an eve for
the welfare Of its men, quickly or
dered such cities to eliminate ohiec-
tionable vice conditions, telling them
the camps would bee moved if there
wasn't instant compliance with the
request.
Everybody knows how anxious
towns are to lose soldier camps near
by-so the vice life was scraped near
~ overnight.
Manifestly, this IS a duty of the
government, not only toward the sol
dicrs themselves. but 90 their friends,
relatives, parents and families at
home. There isn't a mother IN Lords
burg but who is thankful 10 the gov
eminent for its firm stand in this
matter.
The government has showed clearly
that it intends to be its soldiers
keeper in more ways than just feed
ing and clothing them.
