HIS WIFE'S TROUBLE
COST HIM OVER TWO
THOUSAND DOLLARS
lust a Few Bottles of Tanlac
Have Restored Her to Health
Again" French Declares.

after | spent over two thou
sand dollars for medicines for my
wife without doing her any good,
it sure does seem wonderful to me
that just few bottles of Tanlac
have restored her to health again,
is the remarkable statement made
a few days ago by Harry c. French,
who resides at 240 La Branch street,
Houston, Texas.
Several months ago" he con-
tinued, my wife'S health failed, she
lost her appetite and, before | real
lied it, her condition had gotten to
be so bad that she was in danger OF
a complete breakdown What little
she forced herself to eat disagreed
with her and she suffered agonieS
from the gas that rose from the un-
digested food in her stomach. She
was badly constipated and suffered
from such terrible headaches that
her nervous system went all to
pieces and she couldn't sleep more
than half the night. She worried
so much over her condition and be-
came so despondent that she would
hardly speak dozen words during
the day.
Il got several specialists to pre-
scribe for her and got her to take
many different medicines and posi-
lively nothing did her the least good
but Tanlac. Soon after she started
on her first bottle l noticed that
she was picking up and getting to
be more cheerful and she has con
tinued to improve right along ever
since. She eats anything she wants
now and it all agrees with her, she
talks and laughs most all the time
and is always in good humor. She
sleeps like a child and nothing wor-
ries her at all. In fact, she is en-
tirely like different person
Tanlac is sold in Ardmore by
Coleman Drug Co., and by leading
druggists and dealers everywhere

STOP THE BUSINESS

The unmitigated gall of the liquor
interests of this country is fairly de-
picted in the scurrilous sheet they
emit from Cincinnati semi-occasion-
ally.
Although the liquor forces are on
their last legs, they stand boldly and
lay every disaster of every character,
at the door of the prohibitionists.
That they could expect any decent
paper to print the stuff, or any sane
man to believe it, is but another evil
dence Of the blighting effect of the
business upon even the minds of those
associated with it,
Let this Government do its work
properly and put this despicable bus
mess forever out of the lives of our
people.
Why this Cincinnati bunch contin-
ues to afflict us with their filthy
sheet is beyond our comprehension.

DEMAND OF LABOR RESULTS
IN A NATIONWIDE SEARCH

Every community will be combed
for war workers. War industries are
short nearly 100000 common labor
ers, and lack of workers in the coal
mining industry is imperilling all war
production. There is also a serious
shortage of skilled labor. One of the
largest munition plants, turning out
heavy caliber guns, is short 1000
machinists. The war plants of Con-
necticut and Maryland are underman-
ned $4,000 machinists.
The United States employment ser
vice will begin an intensive recruiting
of workers for war work from the
non-essential industries. Employ
ment offices will be increased and the
force of local agents and travelling
examiners will be enlarged and sent
into every community that relief may
be given before the ban against pri-
vate labor recruiting goes into effect
on August 1st.

ECONOMY in PRINT PAPER

For some time we have seen it COM
ing-the limitation of newsprint pa
per-and we have been as economical
as we could be with paper to carry the
news and our advertising to our sub
scribers.
Last week the War Industries
Board asked all newspapers to put
into effect a number of reforms to
save paper, and no doubt before long
each paper will be restricted to the
bare necessities of it's circulation.
By proper editing, much that goes
into the papers might be left out en-
tirely and suit the readers just as
well, and much which seems very i'm
portant could be cut into one fourth
the space.
As far as in our power lies, it is
our purpose to restrict the use of our
columns to the needs of the Govern
ment, and the claims and desires of
our subscribers.
We cannot afford to burden our
columns and our readers with long
and special articles not of general
interest. At the same time the size
of our paper will sometimes force US
to cut or leave out much we would
personally like to print.

SENATOR HOKE SMITH AND
GEORGIA FIELD PEAS

A disgruntled contemporary refers
in sneering sort of way to the part
that Senator Hoke Smith had in hav-
ing the famous Georgia field pea a
dopted as part of the United States
army ration.
Well, we don't know of anything
that Georgia Senator or Congress
man has done lately that will really
be worth any more to the farmers
of the state than this service of our
senior senator.
Senator Smith, with the co-opera-
ton of the Georgia Bureau of Mar
kets, convinced the Surgeon General
of the army that the Georgia field
pea is an excellent article of diet,
and induced him to authorize its
listing on the army ration as sub
stitute article for navy beans. The
peas showed up well in protein and
energy value with the navy beans,
and the recognition that has been
obtained for them by the friendly
efforts of Senator Smith will nat
urally create a better market for
them than they have ever had before.
Prodigious crops of the field pea
can be produced on the sandy loan
lands throughout the southern half
of Georgia, and, now that there is
to be an increased demand for them,
our farmers will grow and harvest
more of them.
The Georgia field pea is not to
be sneered at, nor should Senator
Smith be for the recognition he has
been instrumental in obtaining for
it is an article of army diet.-Albany
Herald.

Every time a farmer buys potash
now for soil that doesn't need it, he
is doing double wrong. He is wrong
ing himself by paying a high price for
an element his soil doesn't need, and
what is even more serious, he is
wronging his brother farmers in sec

ing from them their limited supply
and making this supply still more
