In Miserable Health But Got No
q Relief.
Takes sTansac and Troubles
Disappear.

at never thought 1 would let my
name be used in connection with a
medicine, but Tanlac has done me so
much good that / am only too glad
to recommend it to everybody" said
Clay B. Tolbert, the we'll known La
dies ana Gents furnishing goods man.
1922 North 5th street, Kansas City.
Kansas, in conversation with a caller
at his store, recently. Prior to going
into business on his own account, Mr..
Tolbert had been a commercial trav-
eler for nearly twenty-five years and
was one OF the most popular knights
OF The Grip" on the road at that
time. He has been merchandising in
Kansas City for the past five years.
Il will venture the assertion con-
tinued Mr. Tolbert, that during the
past four years I have spent no less
than five hundred dollars, taking all
kinds of trea tment and medicines, and
it's the truth, Tanlac is the only thing
that has ever helped me. My stomach
had been giving me all kinds of trou-
BILE for four years. Everything 1 would
eat, no matter what or how little,
would suffer terribly afterwards. My
food would invariably sour on my
stomach and 1 would blQat up with
the gas until my heart would palpitate
badly and interfere with my breathing.
& have gone for months at a time living
have gone for months at a time leving
almost entirely on toast and eggs and
even then 1 suffered. My nerves were
in an awful state and for months at a
time 1 have been unable to get a good
nights rest. 1 would often become SO
nervous and misera BILE on going to bed
that I would get up and put on my
clothes and walk around the rest of
the night.
II dropped off in weight from one
hundred and ninety pounds to one
hundred and forty-two-lost forty
eight pounds-and to say I felt mis-
cradle only partially expresses it. I
had tried SO many things in my efforts
to find relief and failed that 1 had lost
faith in everything, and when L first
got Tanlac 1 had very little idea it
now that this is one time 1 have been
very .agreeably surprised. Before 1
finished my first bottle of Tanlac 1 no.
ticed a considerable improvement in
my condition. Well. 1 have been TAX
ing Tanlac for about two months now
and without going into detail about
my improvement with each bottle, I'll
just say that / have already gotten
back several pounds of my lost weight
and am feeling like different man.
My appetite is fine and i; am eating
just anything I want and never feel a
sign of my old trouble. My nerves
have improved until L get a good
nights sleep every night. l have es-
capped the Flu SO. far and a doctor
told me the other day that I would
have been almost sure to catch it if
l hadn't gotten myself out of that
awful run down condition 1 was in be-
fore the epidemic came on. My friends
and customers often remark about
how much better I'm looking and !
certainly do feel the part. L surely do
believe Tanlac is the finest medicine
in the world and 1 would advise any
one who is suffering from stomach
trouble and need building up to give
it a trial"

SCENT FARE CASE UP
Topeka Railway Petition Before
Utilities Commission.


Apptication of the Topeka Railway
company, for a scent street ear fare
in Topeka and Oakland was presented
today to the state public utilities COM
mission. Findings may not be made
by the commission for several days.
The motion OF the street railway
company for an Increased fare was
filed with the state commission early
last fall. 1t followed applications by
the Mckinley interests for increased
rates in Wichita and Atchison. The
state commission had previously
granted concessions to electric com,
panies in the Kaw valley and Pitts
burg districts and the showing of the
Topeka company was similar to that
of other companies affected by new
rate orders. -s-
In the hearing today the state COM
mission was advised that the present
scent fare was neither adequate nor
compensatory and that maintenance
and operating expenses could not be
met unles sa further increase in rates
was allowed. War conditions and war
time prices for materials, as well as
war time wages for employees, was re-
the commission was advised. The
commission was told in plain. simple
language that with the present rates
in operation it would simply be imposL
sible to meet expenses and lay aside
a. return for shareholders. Ar: I'M
crease of / cent in individual fares was
asked, to be made effective with the
issuance of an order by the commits
sion.
T. 1t is probable the commission will
withhold action several days. Mem
befs announced that the application
would be taken under advisement and
decision given at an early date.

Don't Worry Over Flu.
| In statement today the state board
polls Tuesday. While the influenza is
still prevalent, there should be no
hesitancy, the board declares, in going
to polling places. Secretary Crumbine
urged every one to avoid crowds, but
declared there cou1dsbe no reason for
asking people to stay away from the
polls. In a statement he said:
THE epidemic of influenza now prevalent
in Kansas should Hot prevent any vote r
from going to the polls Tuesday and cast
ing his Ballot, provided he is able to be
about the polling places, hut otherwise
there there is no-danger. It is the privilege
and dnty of every citizen to vote, and
voters should not remain at home and fall
to exercise their right of franchise because
of an exaggerated fear of this disease.
Influenza is essentially a crowd disease
and among the chief methods by which II
is spread are careless splitting, coughing
and sneezing. and the nse of drinking yes
sells used by others. One of the chief pre-
cautions to prevent the spread of disease
therefore, is the avoidance OF crowds
Special care in this respect should be taken
| at all polling places on T.-esday.

and east his ballot with the same safety
that he may go about any other errand."f
