disappeared. After another application

Having made a fortune in his search
for gold, he returned to civilization and
devoted his time to social service work.
Although wealthy in the world . goods.

MRS. HAMILTON HAS
 GAINED 1S POUNDS
Was in Wretched Health Before Tabing Tanlac, and Fell Off Until She was Almost
 a Living Skel-
 etOn

If you had seen me before I began taking Tanlac you would not believe it was the same per son talking to you now" |" said Mrs. Emma E. Hamilton. one of4 the best known residents of Ensley, Ala, in telling of the remarkable results she had ob- tained from the use of Tanlac, the medicine that is accomplish ing such wonderful results in the south.
 ''Just think of it!" continued Mrs. Hamilton, 'I have gained eighteen pounds since 1 began taking the medicine, and l have only taken two bottles.
 T suffered from a nervous breakdown, and for nineteen months have been in wretched health, I had no appetite and the little I ate did more harm than good, and my sleep was very poor. I was so weak and felt so miserable that it would some times take me from breakfast until supper to get my house. work finished, for l would have to stop every few minutes and rest. I was too played out to keep on the go. I took all kinds of treatment, but nothing did me any good. and 1 just kept getting worse all the time. It seemed like I was losing strength every day and I lost weight un- til I was almost a living skeleton.
 My husband begged me tc try Tanlac, and just to please him I bought bottle. have just finished up my seconc bottle, and I tell you l wouldn'' take five hundred dollars for the good it has done me. It strength ened me up right from the start gave me a good appetite, ant r everything 1 eat agrees with m' ? perfectly. and I sleep fine. As ; have already said, I have gained r eig hteen pounds, and believe am the happiest woman in town and I believe I have a right t' be. I feel simply fine in ever. way.
 My friends are asking m' we what I have been doing tC myself to look, so much better and, of course,A l tell tbem tha Tanlac is responsible. I believe it is the best medicine ever sole over a drug store counter
 Yes. siry<ydu are perfectly welcomed to use my statement in the papers, and I am only toe glad to be able to let the people know what this wonderful medi- cine will do for the sick. l be- lieve anyone in the shape l was in will find entire relief with Tanlac. !"
 Tanlac is sold in Brinkley ex- clusiyely by M. B. Converse; in Clarendon by w. E, Everett; in Holly Grove by the Holly Grove Drug Co.,; in Hunter by Hunter Drug & Mercantile Co.,; and in Zent by P. R. Anderson, and in Duncan by c. R. Gordon.

Possibility of Human Voice.

It is said that the singing of Jenny Lind once spurred bird perched in a tree to sing in attempted rivalry; perhaps a cantatrice who could sing in the tenth octave would bring forth a concert of voices from the crickets and katydids, while lifting her human hearers into a new heaven of har- mony.
