Many persons seem TO see, or TO

the real thing. The ears of Milton.
Dryden, Spencer and Chnucer would
not have been surprised to hear an
Irishman speak Of "a rough say" or "a

Queen Bess the cultured Englishman
carefully garnished his conversation
with "goolde" rings and brave
"swoordes" and bored his friends with
accounts Of the smart sayings Of the
"childre" at "hoom." This was the
English originally imported into Ire
land by the cultured Irish, and the
Irish have found 1t good enough to pre-
serve.-Chicago Tribune.

Il didn't have much appetite at all

feeling.
II was weak, too, and at times It
got so that was hardly able to shovel
coal in the furnace.
II slept very little. I'd just toss and
roll about the bed most of the night.
Everybody in town can see the
change in me since I've been taking
Tanlac. I've gained thirteen pounds
and I'm still taking on flesh. l eat
big meals now and enjoy them.
Il sleep good every night, too.
Even the rumbling of the trains in
my neighborhood doesn't keep me
from sleeping.
Il feel better than have for twen-
ty-five years and I think Tanlac is
great as health builder"
