Another Gain Told
About By English
His Wife Also RegainS Health and
Lost Weight After Long
Suffering.

Many readers of this paper
will remember the statement of
]. D. English of 910 East Fourth
street, Ell Paso, Texas, which ap-
peared in a recent issue in which
Mr.. English tells of gaining more
than twenty pounds in weight
and getting complete relief from
a serious condition that had been
pulling him down for some three
years, by the use of Tanlac.
The results of Tanlac in the
case of Mrs. English, says Mr..
English, have been just as re-
markable and relates the follow
ing story of her case.
MY wife has always been
more or less frail and delicate, "
said Mr.. English, land had suf-
fered for ten years with stomach
trouble and catarrh of the head.
Goodness only known how much
money have spent trying to get
something that would give her
some relief only to be disappoint-
ed. The slightest change in the
weather caused her to take cold
and during all the spring months
she suffered dreadfully from this
catarrh. Her nose and throat
clogged up so she could hardly
breathe for weeks and at times
she would almost go wild with
headache. Most everything she
ate disagreed with her and her
food would sour and bloat her up
terrible and the pain was some
thing awful until she could get
her stomach empty.
''She had fallen off from one
hundred and fifteen pounds to
ninety-five but honestly, she has
gained all she lost back and more
besides since she began taking
Tanlac. She can eat anything
now and nothing seems to hurt
her in the least. She is also free
from that miserable catarrhal
trouble and since that left her
she don't have anymore head
aches. | never saw such a won
derful change in anybody. She
don't look like the same woman
and all Of her friends are talking
about her big Improvement, and
she, too, like myself, is irregular
booster of Tanlac. !"
Tanlac is sold in Colfax by
Dixie Pharmacy and by one regu-
lar established agency in every
town.

FARM DEMONSTRATION WORK
By II. L. Sloan
AGENT FOR GRANT PARISH

"Hollow Horn" in Cattle is Hollow
Belly"
The following statement was
published in the last issue OF
Hoard's Dairyman in reply to an
inquiry concerning "hollowhorn"
and "wolf in the tail. +"
These diseases are entirely
mythical and exist only in the
minds or Imagination of the ig-
norant. They date back to the
dark ages of barbarism when
harmless old women were burned
as witches. and belief in them is
on a par with that in the signs
of the Zodiac which have no ap-
preciable or important influence
upon mundane affairs or those
on the farm. The horns of all
adult cattle are hollow. Alleged
hollow horn commonly is hollow
belly from lack of feed. The
soft places in the tail are due to
pulling apart of the coccygeal
vertebrae and ligaments when
the COW has caught the brush of
her tail on a snag or fence and
yanked it loose"
The treatment accorded un-
fortunate animals for hollow tail
and hollow horn is usually bar
barous and worse than no treat
ment.

HAYDEN PLACED
 LIN HONOR ROLL

HAYDEN, April 2S.-Liberty day the people of Hayden assembled in the Rex theater in accordance with the proclamation of the president and governor. The Nocyar band was in attendance rendering some excellent music.
 Short speeches were made by MT. Mcdonald and Rev. MT. Dagley. An nouncement was made as to the standing of the teams in the Liberty loan drive A total of sS4.350 had been subscribed, exclusive of the Ray Consolidated subscription. This was more than enough to secure the honor flag.
 As a part of the celebration, two little girls in white pulled the cords that drew aside two American flags, thus unveiling to the assembly the honor flag. Needless to say the peo- pie of Hayden are proud of thelr record in the Liberty loan drives, this being the third time they have sub scrbed their full quota.
 Beside the popular subscription of $S4,S50, the Ray Consolidated Copper company subscribed a quarter million 10 the loan in Hayden and like sum for Ray. The per capita sub scription if the companys quarter million is included would be near $100.
