SEES FIRST WELL
DAY IN II YEARS
Illinois Farmer Says lie Wouldn't
Take All the Money on Earth
for Good Tanlac Did.

I've been trying for eleven long
years to get rid of my troubles but
my efforts failed completely until l
commenced taking Tanlac," said E.
E. Griggs, a well knowR>an pros
porous farmer. who lives about one
mile from Trivoli. Ill, while talking
with a Tanlac representative the
other day.
1T has been eleven years since
my health failed me-" continued Mr..
Griggs, land in spite of all the
treatments and medicine l have
taken, have just been gradually
going down hill ever since. My
stomach bothered me a great deal,
and finally got in such bad condi-
ton that every thing l ate would
sour in few minutes after meals
Then gas would form and get up
into my chest and cause my heart
to palpitate something awful.
Sometimes l would have such ter
rihle pains in the pit of my stomach
that l would be doubled up in bed
for hours at a time. This condition
kept up until 1 finally began to have
bad spells of acute indigestion, and
I often thought | would not be able
to pull through many more of those.
My kidneys were in mighty bad tix,
too. and / had such awful pains IN
my back that l could hardly bend
over to lace my shoes, and when 1
was ready to get out of bed in the
mornings, the leaders and muscles
in my back would be SO sore and
drawn that I could hardly straight
en- up, and would just have to roll
to the edge of the bed and ease out
by degrees. l finally got in such a
weak-rUn-down condition that I
was not able to do the lightest kind
of work, not even the light jobs
around the barn, such as feeding
the stock, and, just had to rent my
farm out to my son.
81 could run my farm with all
ease now, however, for 1 COM
menced taking Tanlac about a
couple of months ago, and all my
troub es have been overcome. I have
a fine appetite now. and I just eat
anything that is put on at the table
at meal time, anda lot of it, too, and
my food agrees with me perfectly.
No more Indigestion, or gas forming
after meals, and those awful cramp-
ing spells are a thing of the past.
My kidneys seem to be in perfect
condition. and l never have those
terrible pains in my back any more,
and I am altogether free from that
tired rundown feeling 1 used to
have all the time. l sleep like a
rock every night, and can spring
out of bed like a boy when the time
comes to get up every morning. In
fact. Taniac has overcome all my
troubles, and I am a well, strong
man again. I wouldn't take all the
money in the world for the good
Tanlac has done me and 1 am glad
to recommend it to everybody"

CARR OPTIMISTIC
over LIMA CLUB

Charles Carr of indianapolis, who
has become interested in the old Cen
trail league proposition, stopped al
Richmond thursday night enroute to
Indianapolis from Lima, Ohio.
Carr talked to Elmer Eggemeyer
concerning the possibilities in the re.
organization of the old Central loop
and was optimistic in his belief that
Lima would come in and make six
club circuit possible. He said the
secretary of the Chamber of Com
merce had become interested in the
project.
The secretary, he said, is trying to
get about twenty-five business men to
back club from that city which will
make the league possible. No over
lures will be made to Muncie as Lima
is favorable to the organization.
AS Louis Heilbroner has done moth
ing at Fort Wayne, men interested in
the revamping of the old Central will
go to Fort Wayne and see what can
be done there next week. In case
Fort Wayne factions do not get to-
gether on the league question, Muncie
will be asked to come in as the sixth
CO..
Before either Evansville and Terre
Haute can be asked to join the league,
the organization of the individual
clubs must be brought to greater
extent of progress and organization.

of the opinion that Lima, Ohio, will

Helen Newlywed took the 500
check she got from an uncle for a
wedding present hot-foot to cute
little rug store on a side street.
For long time there had been a
Kermanshah rug in the window of
that cute little store-"a bargain at
$3.50" the tag said. The merchant
thoughtfully explained to young
Mrs. N. that this wonderfully low
price was made possible because
he had a cheap rent - and never
advertised.
Happy in her bargain, the lady
bought the rug without giving the
matter second thought.
An evening or two later, her
newly-wed husband said-"Helen,
