A. F. Armand Says He Could Talk Nj
Day Long About Tanlac-Feels
as Well as He Ever Felt
in His Life.

! Nearly two thousand people in At

| including a great many prominent
! business men, and almosa without ex-
ception every one Of the number had
something good to say about Tanlac.
Among them was Mr.. A. F. Armand.
the well-known wholesale and retail
seed and grain merchant, whose place
of business is located at 271-273 Peters
street Mr.. Armand is not only one OF
the big business men of Atlanta, but is
man of high character and strict in,

pressed it, His word is as good as his

Like a great many other men Of af-
fairs who stick close to business, Mr..
Armand, to use his own statement, was
all rundown, and felt the need of
something to build him up. In an in
teresting interview a few days ago, he
said:
For more than a year l have suf
fered a great deal from stomach trou-
BILE, and was hardly ever free from
Indigestion. After eating l would al
ways have gas on my stomach, and
would belch up sour undigested foods
Il also suffered from heartburn a
great deal, and was extremely ner-
yous. / felt like l needed something
to build me up, but did not know, just
what l needed. / felt languid and
tired out most Of the time. My liver
was sluggish, and l suffered a great
deal from biliousness. At times I just
felt like l could not give my business
the attention it needed.
Like everybody else, l got to read

it a trial. Besides, I heard "a great

SO l began taking it, and by the time
l had fininshed my second bottle | had

Honestly, l could talk to you all day,
and wouldn't be able to tell you how
grateful l feel toward this medicine.
If you had seen me before l began TAX

the same man.
Il have talked about the medicine SO
much, and look so much better since |

ITALIANS MAKE
MORE BIG GAINS
Take 1000 Prisoners in Advance Along
Wide FrOnt.-French and Brit
ish Active in Champagne
Sector.

New York, May 27.-Smashing the
Austrian lines on the Carso plateau
and in the mountainous country north
of Gorilla, the Italians have made ad-
ditional and important gains. General
Cadorna's troops also captured more
than 1900 prisoners and II guns.
In an assault between Jamanio and
the coast, the Italian troops crossed
the railroad between Luino and Mon
falcone, northeast of San Giovannia,
and carried to strongly fortified hill
southwest of Medeazza, less than two
miles north of Dunno on the coast. The
capture of MedeaZZa would be an i'm
portant step toward the investment of
Dunno, a strong natural position. A
field battery of 10 guns and So Aus
TRANS We're captured by the Italians.
Near PLAYA, where the Italians be-
gan their successful drive, Cardorna' 8
men carried the heights at the head
Of the Pallioy valley. By this sue
cess they connected their lines on
Mount Cucco with those on Hill 1868,
both of which were taken early in the
recent fighting. Four hundred pris-
oners were captured in this seclor.
Around Gorilla there was heavy artil-
lery firing. At Castagnavizza. south of
Gorilla, the Italians were checked in
an attempt to take the town.
British Make Gains.
On the front in France there has
been a recrudescence of infantry ac>
tivity, but not on large scale. The
British made gains in local attacks
northwest of St Quentin and near
Fontaine-les -Croissiles, on the south
ern end of the Arras battlefield, and
repulsed a German attack east of
Loos, north of Arras.
On the Aisne and Champagne fronts,
both the Germans and French have
been active. Around Teton, in Cham
payne, the German Crown prince made
three attacks and succeeded in pene-
trating the French line. A counter
attack by General Petain's troops,
however, forced the Germans to re-
tire again to their own lines. North
of the Aisne and the Germans were re-
pulsed in an attack against the LAT
faux Pargny. on the Ailette north OF
Braye-en-Laonnois, Berlin reports five
French attacks were made in vain as
was an attack near VauXaillOn, north
