TWO YEARS In BED

Mrs. Wilson Says She Had

had to go through with what I did.
l was very weak and nervous, and at
times had those dreadful smothering
sensations to the point of fainting.
Ihad observation-disclosures, severe pains
in my back and over my kidneys, and
my joints ached all the time. For
two years had to live entirely on
boiled milk, toast and soft boiled
eggs, and even that didn't digest well,
and would sour on my stomach. l
didn't know what it was to get a
good nights sleep. took one kind
of medicine after another until our
house was almost filled with empty
bottles, but instead of improving
was getting worse all the time. Fin
ally they took me to the hospital for
treatment, and lay there for FIVE
long months, but even that didn't
make me well. 1t was taking nearly
every cent of my husbands wages
to pay my doctor and drug bills
our drug bill alone amounted to $14
or SIS month, and one doctor bill
amounted to sos.
at looked like everything had fail
ed to help me, and had about given
up all hope when one day my hus-
band brought bottle of Tanlac home
with him and asked me to take it..
He said he had been reading and
hearing a lot of good things about
it, and didn't see any reason why it
shouldn't help me. was confined

morgue yesterday afternoon.
The jury returned a verdict that the
soldier. who was Of Company b, 9Th

cclored, but that the jury believes that
glazing headlights on another automo-
bile were responsible for this accident.
and asks that the District Commission
ere take such steps may be neces-
sary to prevent similar occurrences in
the future by enforcing rigidly the
laws"
Blackston testified he was operating
the automobile OF Arthur +. II. Middle

neared Garrison street an automobile
and motorcycle approached from the
opposite direction. He said the other
