Zachry Says Wife
Sings all the Time
She's as Bright and Happy as a
16-Year-Old Girl, and Has
Gained IS Pounds" Says
Dairy Farmer.

my wife goes about the house
now singing and whistling all
the time, no wonder she is so
happy, for on just three bottles
of Tanlac she has gained eigh-
teen (18) pounds and she is
like different woman alto
gether, r" said J. B. Zachry, the
well known dairyman of Swords,
Ga.
I'm here to get a bottle to
take myself" he continued,
for it's helped her so much
am sure it will be a fine spring
tonic for me to take.
my wife suffered indigestion
and stomach trouble for a long
time, and was in a general run
down condition. She reached
the point where she couldn't
hardly sleep at all, and her ap-
petite went down to. almost
nothing. She couldn't take
interest in anything, was very
weak and nervous and seemed
despondent all the time. She
lost a good deal in weight and
her strength was all get ting
away from her.
This is the very shape she
was in when she began taking
Tanlac. She has now taken
three bottles of the medicine
and the indigestion has been
relived entirely. She hasn't a
pain about her and feels fine in
every way. She has been gain
ing weight and strength ever
since she took her first doses,
and weighs eighteen (18) pounds
more today than the day she
began taking Tanlac. She has
the biggest kind of an appetite
and eats meets, hot biscuits and
anything else she wants and
everything agrees with her per-
fectly. She is no longer nervous
nor dizzy and slesns like a baby.
She goes about h nepsework
IS happy as a sixteeKy year-girl
and smiles all the Mhe.
Il have one hundred cows to
ock after and my wife llhelp-
ng me more with my WI than
The ever has in her life. Tdplac
uet seems to have filsA her
vita new life, strength an en-
'rgy, and and you don't low

'oyery. It's just marvellous the

With the Demonstrators

~ was OuI plcdSuTG MOHudy
in company with Mr.. B. F. Ellis
and Miss Mamie Grauer, te
visit the Chalk Bluff neighbor.
hood with our demonstrators,
Mr.. N. D.. Guerry and Miss Mary
Bourdeaux, and to view them
in their work. The five of us
made the trip in the, demonstra.
tion "Lizzy," and at one time
took on three other passengers,
yet it made the run without
mishap and almost on schedule
time. Both Mr.. Ellis and Miss
Grauer proved to be valuable
additions to the demonstration
party, both coming in handy to
open and shut gates, at which
art both are past masters, and
Mr.. Ellis was of special value in
consuming any excess products
found in the neighborhood. For
our part, we served merely as
an ornament to detract from the
good appearance of the party
and to assist Mr.. Ellis in the
cevouring business.
The trip was made to hold a
canning demonstration and to
more Thoroughly organize the
club boys and girls. Friday
before was to have been the day
for this, but it was not held at
that time because of the heavy
rain here shortly after dinner
that day and the fact that Mr..
Query was called to a confer
ence of demonstrators. This
change of date was not general
ly known and some were absent
from both meetings because they
had not learned of the ckd ge
still there was a pretty good at
tendance at the canning demon
stration and a fine attendance at
the club meeting.
One stop other than to adver-
tise the meetings was made on
the way out. This was at Mr..
Will Tacker's. Here we visited
the fields and saw some good
crops, considering the year
Corn was doing nicely in spite of
the dry weather and cotton and
other crops showed intelligent
management coupled with an
earnest desire to make a good |
crop. In the cotton patch we |
found some squares punctured |
by weevils, not many, but show
ing and infestation quite suffi-
,ient to destroy the crop should
adverse weather conditions set
N.
Leaving Mr.. Tacker's we soon
arrived at Mr.. Wade Jolly's
where the canning demonstra-
ion was held. Here we were
welcomed by Mrs. Jolly and her
laughter, Miss Hilda, who made
is feel at home at once. When
he necessary equipment had
'een got together, Miss Bour-
leaux took charge and soon had ,
he Gamer going, and without
stentatious display of know
edge or any unnecessary lectur- ,
ng, proceeded to show the girls ,
nd older ladies present just ho~ ,
Jncle Sam directs his girls to do I

meal fit for a king. We

this splendid repast for fear W,
will make some of our towr
readers too hungry at a time
when prices areoplaning. Mr.
Jolly is one of our sturdy farm
ers who knows the fine art u
true Southern hospitality. Mrs
jolly is one of those motherly
old ladies who reminds us of oul
grandmothers whom we thought
had more pockets than the mod
ern boy and something good to
please the children in every one
of them. Well we were her
grandchildren for the time be-
ing much to our delight. Miss
Hilda, queen like, appeared to be
constantly at your elbow to see
that your every want was at
eended to, yet she found time to
dodge away and assist her
mother with the major duties of
the household as a dutiful daugh-
ter is want to do. While we
were yet here Miss Bessie anoth-
er daughter came in from the
normal at the A. and M. college,
happy and gleeful like a girl just
home from a boarding school.
Mr.. Guerry spent the after
noon going from place to place
to perform one odd duty and
another and apparently but in
cidently to view the crops and
the manner of work being done,
yet he was ever ready to answer
questions or offer suggestions in
that even, quiet way which has
made him so much liked as a
f arm demonstrator. Miss
Grauer, witty and conversation
al, added social zest to our party
largely relieving the working
members for the performance of
their work.
Rather later than we might,
we arrived at the school building
where quite crowd had gather
ed. Mr.. Guerry called the>meet-
ing to order AID stated the OBJ
iect of the meeting and then !
called Mr.. Ellis to the platform |
for the address of the evening. !
Mr.. Ellis told the people some
hing of what the Business
Mems Club has tried to do to |
lelp the farmers and told of his
ielight in seeing new moves
llong several progressive lines.

Chicago, Jank 28.-Assertions that
