MRS. JOHN O'CONNER
GAINS EIGHT POUNDS

gains Health Taking Tanlac.

Mrs. Jno. O'Conner, who lives at
33S East Oldham St, Knoxville, Tenn,
called up the Kuhlman-C hambliss
Drug Co., recently and said she wanted
to speak to the "Tanlac" man. When
Mr.. Willis answered the telephone,
Mrs. O'Conner made the following re-
markable statement;
II just wanted you to know, and
everybody else to know. what that
Tanlac medicine has done for me. Why,
have gained eight pounds already,
and have only been taking it ten days,
have just finished taking the first
bottle and have sent Mr.. OConner
back to the store this morning for
another bottle. This Tanlac certainly
does just what you say it will do. |

without newspaper advertising? We
are not discussing the merits or de-
merits of Tanlac; but certain il is
that there are many excellent rem
edies on the market, which for want of
advertising are comparatively UNI
known.
Just so with the stocks of many
merchants who do not believe in adj
vertising. The people near them
know in general way that they are
in business, but the majority know
nothing of a specific nature about
them. They swim round and round
in the little opening they have main
tanned in the big ice field of oblivion,
but lack the originality and initiative
to get out to the larger waters beyond
and instead of increasing their scope
and field of action, they are gradually
being crowded into narrower and mar.
rover quarters until they either die
and are forgotten, or 90 into the
hands of sheriff or receiver.
No merchant or business man hav-
ing enough ambition to justify his be.
ing on the job, can afford to not ad,
vertse.

THE WAR, THE FARM
AND THE FARMER
BY Herbert Quick
Member Federal Farm Loan Board

While Gerard was our ambassador
in Berlin, the Kaiser said to him one
day that he would stand no nonsense
from America after the war.
DO YOU know what that meanse II
means that the Germans intend to
subjugate this country IL they come
out OF this war victorious.
The German Imperial government
has preached the superiority OF Ger.
, many to all the rest OF the world UNI
I'll the German nation is drunk with
megalomania. one OF their great
writers expressed the prevailing, of.
fetal view in 1908. when he wrote;
The Teutonic race Is called upon
to circle the earth with its rule, to ex-
plot the treasures of nature and of
human power. and to make the pas
sive races seryicnt elements In its
cultural development Who.
ever has the characteristics of the
Teutonic race is superior. All the
dark peoples are mentally inferior, be-
cause they belong to the passive
races. The cultural value of nation
is measured by the quantity of Teu-
tonism 1t contains"
Are you one of the darker races?
| Are YOU willing to be rated as one
of the "servient elements" in Ger
many's cultural development?
You began to be one of the "servi-
ent elements" when peaceful people
were slaughtered as they carried your
| produce to market Was It because
/ You belonged to passive race?"
This war is Tor the purpose of say
| ing TO that insane claim with the
roar OF a hundred thousand cannon
mo"
! Never since the Turks threatened
TO overwhelm Europe was the world
/ in such danger as now. Germany
must be defeated this year. Unless
we win. our place I'm the world Is
/ lost. and our history as one of the
"servient clements" begins. We must
/ withhold nothing from the support OF
! the war. We must give our sons. We
must bring forth food in abundance
/ We must give into the treasury OF the
4 United States every cent we can
| spare.
This summer the support Of the war
Is up to the farmers; and Uncle Sam
has never cahed upon the farmers in
vain

The farms OF this country could
clusion even u all the rest of the ma
tons should quit. The rest will not
quit; but we could win IL without
them II we had to do II. The farmers
of the United States can whip Ger.
many. We can whip them with guns.
we can whip them with our products,
We can whip them with our money.
Every farmer in the United States
must remember that the war has a
first mortgage on every cent he has.
The last spare cent in the pockets of
every farmer In America should be
devoted to the war.
The Kaiser began foreclosing his
mortgage on our farms when he de.
clared ruthless submarine warfare.
The war is our answer to his bill OF
foreclosure.
Our contribution Is. first our sons
aud brothers for Che trenches; sec.
ond. the last pound OF food products
which we can grow by modifying our
scanty labor supply. utilizing the men,
women and children and the towns.
people about us; and third, money
for Liberty Bonds.
This is the crucial year of the war,
Our soldiers are at the front, hun
dreds of thousands of them in the
trenches. and million more ready to
20. The whole burden of carrying on
our own part in the war, and of aid
ing our sister nations in arms. rests
on the United States Treasury.
II the treasury fails or falters OF
finds itself unable TO respond to every
call upon il. the war is lost DO you
realize that?
Your son. and all the nations sons
are relying on the United States
Treasury to furnish things with which
they may fight.
Their lives are lost II the treasury
fails. Our country is lost If the treas
ury fails.
Germany wins if the treasury fails
Therefore every cent you can rake
and scrapo together belongs to the
treasury. that our soldiers may come
back to us alive and victorious. This
is literally true. We can whip the
Germans with our money; but not
with the money in our pockets OF
bank accounts. II mnst go into the

THINK IT OVER.

If the lay member of the community
who is in the habit of sending away
for lot of his merchandise has the
idea that he does not owe anything to
his local business establishments, he
should engage in business himself for
a while He would soon find out who
it is that bears the brunt of every
public improvement, and finances al
most every worthy cause. Scarcely a
week passes but the business estab-
lishments are tapped" for something
of this kind. In many instances the
business bouses are not as able to
bear these drains and burdens as some
of the better off citizens, but they are
handy and easy to find; and of course
/ they cannot afford to be measley and
refuse, or they would lose prestige.
That's all right, too, but under these
circumstances, and in view of the fact
that they are paying taxes and rend-
oring many other services to the peo-

THE HOME MERCHANT

The home merchant. Who is he?
He is the chap who gives you credit
when you are financially broke, and
carries your account until you are
able to pay.
He is the chap who gives you back
your money or makes exchanges when
you are not satisfied with what you
have bought.
He is the chap who stands behind
his guarantee, and makes restoration
of all losses that you may sustain on
the goods you buy.
He is the chap who meets you at the
door with a handshake, and lets you
out with message to the "kids,' and
real come-again goodbye.
He's the chap who meets and greets
you on the street every day in the
year, and takes a neighborly interest
in your family and your affairs.
He is the chap whose clerks and
bookkeepers and other employees live
in your town and spend their money
with you and your people
He is the chap who pays heavy
taxes to help support your schools and
build your streets and maintain your
fire departments and police depart
ments and parks and lighting and
water service
He is the chap who helps support
your churches and hospitals and char
table organizations, and lodges and
commercial clubs, and talks and boosts
for your town every day in the year
He is the chap who visits you when
you are sick, sends flowers to your
family when you die, and follows your
body out among the trees and tombs
as far as human feet may travel with
the dead
He is the home merchant-your
neighbor-your friend-your helper il
! time of need.
Don't you think that YOU ought tc
trade with him, and be his friend and
helper in the time of his need?
Didn't you know that every dollar
you send out of your town for mer-

who never spend dollar in your

Throwing new fotces into the

man have not yet captured impor
tan. positions. ard most OF the
front is reing held in check.
Apparently the aIied resistance
Mon..ay was greater thar the Ger
man command had anticipated. The
enemy has changed his tactics to
strong local attacks at yital points

their holu on the river the troops
along the Marne are in dangerous
situation sh ,uld a. allied counter
attack begin
Evidently the German purpose n
striving to press forward astride the
river TO Epernay IS TO outflank the
strong natural obstacle q! the noun
tain Of Rheims which les between
the Marne and Rheims. Attacks
against this heigh. from the west
have stopped for the moment and
no effort has been made to attack
Rheims frontally.
Formidable attempts by the Ger
mans TO break the 'lain French line
at PrunLy about cigh; miles east
of Rheims have been broken up by
the siubborn resistance Of French,

In the Hilly Country.
In the regi.:n of Tahure and Cros-
mes, III the hilly "oun;ry west OF
the Argonne forest, the Germans
have been unable TO advance fur
ther ,han the first advanced line.
Req .ated attacks .hcre have been
repulsed with heavy losses by the
French.

1900 prisoners, according to Ber-
lin. The first lengthy official state
me-, on the new offensive did not
mention any decided galns, and the
statement of Tuesda, night showed
tina; The allie resistance still was
