CHAS. SAMPSON
GAINS POUNDS
TAKING TANLAC

Five Years; Many Other
Nebraska People Gain
Weiqht.

A feature that stands out more
prominently than any other per-
haps, in connection with the intro
ducton and sale of Tanlac in Ne
braska is the very large number of
men and women who have reported
an astonishingly rapid increase in
weight as result of it's use.
Only short time ago Mrs.
Maurice Cochran residing at 1854
Taylor street, Omaha, reported that
she has gained seventeen pounds.
A few days later |. n. Smith, Of
1926 Q street, Lincoln, for many
years locomotive engineer, report
ed gain Of fifteen pounds.
One of the latest to testify is
Charles Sampson of 923 North 25th
street, Omaha, who says he has
actually gained twenty-five pounds
on a few bottles of the medicine.
Mr.. Sampson has lived in Omaha
for thirty-two years and has been
employed for many years by the
Moline Plow company.
Il had been steadily going down
hill for five years. said Mr.
Sampson, "and had fallen off forty
pounds in weight. | had no appe-
tite ard suffered nearly all the time
from indigestion. The gas which
formed on my stomach would press
on my heart so at times l could
hardly get my breath. | would get
so dizzy when | stopped over to
pick up anything that | would al
most fall. l had terrible pains in
and about my stomach after eating,
was constipated all the time and
l felt so weak, especially in my legs,
that l could hardly walk home from
my work in the evenings. My con-
dition was certainly very distressing
and getting worse instead of better.
"After reading what others had
to say about Tanlac l concluded it
was just the thing for me, too, and
it certainly was, Ny appetite got
better so quickly that it surprised
me. The gas stopped forming on
my stomach and | was soon eating
just anything and getting back my
lost weight. have already gained
twenty-five pounds and now l can
stand up to my work all day and
still feel good enough to walk home,
a distance of two miles, in the even
ings. l don't suffer any more from
constipation or dizziness or any
other bad feelings now and, in fact,
l am perfectly we'll and strong and
gladly recommend Tanlac to every
body"

By Associated Press.

With the French Army in France
Sept. 25.-General Debeney's troops
i'll their latest advance toward St
Quentin took a position at Dallon
which TIE 221st German division had
been ordered to hold to the last
drop of blood"
Ten German officers and more
than 500 men were prevented from
making the supreme sacrifice de-
manded OF them. They fought well
under the protection of curtain Of
fire from their artillery posted
around St. Quentin. but the French
troops were on them in successive
waves so quickly that they could
not carry out the order OF their
commanding general, Won La Chew
alleric. except by committing sui
eide. The alternative of captivity
appeared acceptable to most OF
them.
Make Frontal Attack.
The Germans suffered there from
lack OF appreciation of the resource
fuluess and suppleness OF the French
tactics. General Debeney's men
having approached the position to
within proper distance for all as
sault, abandoned the method OF in
filtration which had characterized
the operations around St. Quentin
and made Il rcsolutc frontal attack
In the first round they took the
central point of resistance at Fran
Cilly-Selency and the cross roads 500
yards 10 the east,
Keeping close up with the creep
ing barrage which their artillery
maintained with splendid precision,
the attacking waves swept the east

Meanwhile German reinforce

This success makes precarious the

ridges from Holnon to Dalton,
which the enemy has been fortfying

it might not mean the fall OF St.

physicians say that health officials and doc

subs titutes for Nuxated Iron, which, instead
of being organic iron may be nothing more
than metallic iron compound which may
in some cases produce more harm than good.

lumber industry without any appre-
ciable results.
The report charges that the Com
