Railroad Man Says Tanlac Is the Only Thing That Ever Helped Him After Suffering Four
 Years.

If the people of this town only
 knew what Tanlac had done for me you would sell a thousand bottles tomorrow" said Tom Stringfellow a well known employee of the Southern Railway. who lives at i26 East Ninth Street, Annistan, Ala.
 Mir. Stringfellow is well known in
 railway circles and is on the Allan
 ta and Birmingham division. T suffered from stomach trouble and indigestion for four years, con- tinued Mir. Stringfelow, "and got so 1 couldn't hardly eat anything. I 1 fell off until I only weighed ii9 bounds and finally got so weak and rundown 1 was on the point of hav- ing to resign my position. To tell you the truth just felt like life was not worth living because just seemed to be getting worse all the time and nothing seemed to do me any good.
 T would have awful pains in my back and kidneys and could hardly sleep. Two hours each night would be about all the sleep I would get.
 Most always after eating 1 would
 have gas on my stomach and my heart would palpitate. would get weak in my limbs and have dizzy spells and would have spots in front of my eyes.
 About a month ago l began read ing about Tanlac, and heard the railroad men talking about it. Sev- eral of my friends had taken the medicine and said if was a fine thing for stomach trouble, so de- cided to give 1t trial. The first bottle helped me so much kept on taking it and have just finished my fifth bottle. When 1 weighed the other day l kicked the beam at i4f pounds, and was so surprised I turned around to see if someone was not standing on the scales. Yes. sir, that's a fact. I had actually gained 9 pounds and feel like we'll man again for the first time in four years.
 "Tanlac helped right down from the start, and before l had finished taking the second bottle I go so would eat and sleep and work as good as anybody. That's what the medicine did for me and everybody who knows me will tell you the same thing. Why. I can just eat anything now and indigestion never bothers me a particle any more. can sleep good, too, and feel just fine in every way. Speaking of eat ing. my grocery bills have gone up to almost double.
 "Just to show you what think of the medicine I bought dozen bot ties today in order to always have a supply on hand. 1 wouldn't be with out it for anything in the world"

The nonpartisan leader., 1917-01-25

League movement was Glass" move
ment in any sense of the word
House Bill "A, the League measure,
is now in the hands Of the state affairs
committee of the house, which will re-
port it favorably for passage with a
few minor amendments to correct
oversights in the original draft. That
it will be reported this week by the
committee and passed practically
unanimously by the house there now
seems no doubt.
The senate has taken three day ad-
journment, which it is permitted to do
without the consent of the house, but
the League majority in the house re-
fused to lose any time by adjournment
and the house has been on the job right
along. When the senate reconvenes this
week it will doubtless receive Bill A
from the house, when it will be referred
to committee and the real fight to get
it passed. putting the new constitution
up to the people in June, will begin.
In considering the possibilities of the
bill passing the. senate the effect of
Governor Frazier's message must not
be under estimated. The governors
message, appearing in full on Page S
of this issue Of the Leader, has also
materially strengthened the League
position. In plain, clean cut language
the governor urges the necessity of
adopting this bill. His prestige and
influence in the state is undoubted He
has the confidence Of the people and
the farmers are loyal to him to man.

ceived. The League has materially
the legal phases of it's plan, which
some senators have been inclined to
criticize. Attorney James Manahan of
st. Paul, well known lawyer of the
Equity society, who toured North Da-
kota before the primaries making
speeches for the Nonpartisan League
candidates, has been here. At a meet
ing of Nonpartisan League senators
and members Of the house he said that
the procedure for constitutional revi-
sion called for in Bill "A is legal and
correct.
Attorney Manahan pointed to
specific sections of the present
state constitution reserving all
power to the people and maintain
ed that the people at any time
could adopt such constitution as
they pleased, no matter by what
procedure 1t was drafted and SUBJ
mitted. He cited the Nebraska
constitution adoption procedure as
being in point. He also pointed out
that the constitution framed by the
League senators and representa-
tives is in direct line with the de-
mands Of the people.
At the, sanle< meeting Judge A. T.
Cole of Fargo gave an address in which
he stated that the Nonpartisan League
program ultimately would prove of
vast benefit to all classes Of people, not
alone farmers. He showed how fool
ish were the statements that the
