A Bilious Attack.

When you have bilious attack
your liver fails to perform its func-
tons. You become constipated. The
food you eat ferments in your stom-
ach instead of digesting. This in
flames the stomach and causes nau-
sea, vomiting and aterrible headache.
Take Chamberlain's Tablets. They
will tone up your liver, clean out your
stomach and you will soon be as well
as ever. They only cost quarter.

 T had suffered for three years from indigestion and the worst kind of burn- ing and pains in my stomach. l had no appetite and all l ate seemed to go com pletely against me. My head ached dread fully. I had dizzy, fainty spells and was so nervous I couldn't sleep. I have often gotten up in the middle of the night and dressed and tried everything I could think of to get my nerves quiet.
 Il resorted to every treatment I knew of-even had an operation or two-but never until 1 found Tanlac did I get any relief I decided to try Tanlac because dreamed of getting much relief. Being able to eat without suffering, sleep soundly and feel well like I do now cer- tainly is a blessing. Tanlac is wonder ful and I will at any time be glad to tell just what it has done for me know there are lots of people suffering just like l did and II just want to tell them I believe that if they take Tanlac, they will get well.'

MUSCLE SHOALS BEGINS PERIOD
 OF REIMBURSEMENT
Unlike Many War Industrial Sections, Conditions Not Chaotic and People Real
 ize Responsibilities
nr H. roNra1Nr LITTLE

Sheffield, December IA. (Specia1) Like many sections of the United States the Muscle Shoals district is entering upon period of industrial and business adjustment. And the people of this com munity are awakening to the fact that enormous responsibilities devolve upon them to meet the problems of the pres- ent and future. But unlike many sec tions of the country where- great war emergency plants have been established only to be abandoned almost immediate ly following cessation of the world war, conditions here have not become chaotic. The signing of the armistice and the initial operation of the Muscle Shoals ni- trate plants, were almost simultaneous; : the largest cyanamid nitrate industries in the world were thus ushered into long career of usefulness. It is not difficult then to visualize the full value of the Muscle Shoals development to this dis trict.
 The annunocement came from Wash ington only a few days ago that construc- ton of the Muscle Shoals dam would not be further delayed, and immediate work was resumed on the dam, and Is now progressing rapidly as labor and material can be assembled. The build ing of the Muscle Shoals dam and the completion and operation of the nitrate plants, means that the Muscle Shoals

GEN. SIBERT HONOR
 GUEST AT DINNER
Capt. H. M. Ayers of Annis- ton on Programme of
 Speakers at Banquet

Washington, December IA Especially Major General William l.. Sibert of Ala bama, director of the chemical warfare service, was the honor guest at an elab- crate dinner here last night, at which it was brought out that at the time the armistice was signed America was pro- ducing more poison gas than all its three allies combined
 It was also. stated by General Sibert and other speakers that while little American equipment was used in France, the American gas mask, produced under the direction of the Alabama general, was worn by every American soldier abroad, and is the best mask yet devised.
 Gases that would kill every living thing for miles around would have been turned loose on the Hun, it was stated if he had continued his campaign of frightful- ness.
 Captain H. M. Ayers of Anniston, as- sistant to the chief of personnel, was on the programme of speakers, being the only one of his rank thus honored. He paid high tribute to the part played by Alabama in winning the war and to Gen eral Sibert in particular.
