WOLFF TELLS HOW
1T SAVED HIS LIF E
Taxidermist Struggled Until He
Was Almost Done FOr-"Ian-
lac Has Made a New Man of
Me-" He Says.

Avis Wolff. who has been a taxider
mist in Chattanooga, Tennessee, for
thirty years, and who resides at $50
Glass street, recently made one of the
most interesting statements ever pub
lished in connection with Tanlac, in
the south. :"
Il really believe Tanlac has saved
my life" he testified. I had strug-
gIed with rheumatism and stomach
trouble until / was almost done for
My stomach would fill with gas after
eating and cause me endless suffering.
I had rheumatic pains in my lower
limbs that almost drove me distracted
and I was SO nervous and dizzy that
/ got so / couldn't do any work and
spent most of my time in bed.
Things are different altogether
now, Tanlac has made a new man of
me. My rheumatism is entirely re-
lieved, my stomach has been put in
splendid condition, l have a dandy APP
petite, can eat anything I want and
enjoy it. 1 am no longer nervous or
dizzy, 1 feel stronger and better every
way and can do more hard work than
have been able to do in long time.
Tanlac is sold in Pensacola exclu-
sively by the Crystal Pharmacy.-Adv

MUNICIPAL COAL
PILE IN BOSTON

Boston, Mass, Aug. s.-The poor
will not suffer from lack of coal in
this city if Mayor Peters has his way.
He stands squarely behind the move
ment to put Boston in the coal bust
ness by establishing a municipal coal
pile with a minimum of $4,000 tons.
He has already drawn up tentative
plan for ten distributing centers where
the poor can buy coal in so or 100
pound lots and the mayor says he will
take the matter of getting a supply
for the municipal coal pile to Wash
ington before he will have last win
ters condition exists again. This ac
tlon, according to the mayor, will not
be taken unless no satisfaction can be
obtained locally.
Local Fuel Administrator James j.
Storrow was Of the opinion at first
that such an extra allotment of coal
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1918-08-09

for this district was impossible and
then it was suggested by a member OF
the council committee that the sup
ply for the municipal coal pile be
taken from the dealers allotments.
There must be something done IN
the way of getting coal for the POOR
said the mayor. II don't think we
should trouble ourselves about those
people who can buy in ton lots or TO
buy low combustible coal until we can
find out whether We can get standard
coal I have thought that II we can
get Is, 600 toRs, put IL in bags. either
to be distributed Or sold at stations
and as near cost as possible we would
be doing a great public service This
whole sdea is to get the coal and hold
it for an emergency.
ut is uncomfortable to think that
the government would not favor the
plan of the city of Boston securing a
supply OF coal for it's citizens. Such a
demand should receive priority over
all orders for Boston. am going
through with the project. for / believe
it is distinctly in the interest Of the
people and I want TO prevent. II pos
sible, the distress of last winter"
For the delivery OF coal the city
will have the help of men and wagons
from the public works department, for
the winter months find plenty of city
employees in this department idle. Il
is quite probable city Official will b
appointed to act as coal commissioner
TO look after distribution.
Although the mayor asks for a min
imum of $4,000 tons of coal he states
that this may have to be doubled IL
is not the intention of the city toscom-
pete with local dealers; therefore q
limit of 100 pounds will probably be
put on all purchases.

PEASANTS FRIGHTENED AS
TO AMERICAN SOLDIER.

With the American Army on the
vesle, Wednesday, Aug. 7.-(By Asso-
ciated Press)-French peasants found
by American soldiers in a cave near
Vile Savoye, just south of the Vesle,
had been told by the Germans that if
the Americans discovered them the
men would be killed and the women
mistreated. The Germans gave the
peasants a letter dated Fismes, August
5th, and purporting to be signed by
the Artillery Commander" The letter
said in part: I'VE have received the
announcements from airplanes.
Thanks. We are not Russians, how
ever"

KEEP UP THE GOOOD WORK

Whether or not the articles which nave
appeared in Cayton' Weekly from time to
time encouraging it's colored readers to pur
chase homes while purchasing is good, we
know not, but we do know that many OF
them are acquiring homes at present and
still many more making preparations to do so
at an early date. A few days ago we told
of Mr. and Mrs. AL. Duncanson purchasing
a home on Thirty-second and since that time
Sid Holden and G. j. Johns have purchased
beautiful homes thereabouts. Not in the
same neghborhood, but in the same sector
of the city other colored families are weekly
acquiring homes and at the rate they are
purchasing homes in the very near future
the colored man renting property will be the
exception and not the rule. On Tenth and
King colored man recently purchased
brick house containing thirty rooms and he
is preparing to put it in first class condition
for an up-to-date rooming house.
At the Business League last Sunday after
noon it was predicted that within the next
ten years colored citizens would hold the
bulk Of the property between Jefferson and
Madison streets and Twenty-frst and Twen-
ty-eighth avenues, which is one Of the most
