"OP SWimmin' Hole" Not AS
Tempting AS in Olden Days
Scenes of the Boyhood of Sheriff Mike Clark Fail to
Meet Expectations After Absence of Thirty Nine
Years-Fnds New York Still Wet

Sheriff Mike Clark returned yes
terday from trip to his boyhood
home in Tarrytown, N. Y. 1t was
the first vacation trip Mike has taken
to any great distance in 80 years
and it was the first time Mrs. Clark
had been out of Ntbraska.
Mike visited the "ol' swimmin'
hole" and found that it didn't look
at all like it did when he was boy.
He visited the old school where he
played and learned as boy.
Il met the janitor and asked him if
I could look around. I pointed out
a door where I told him l used to
put lineup up and fix it so that it
would tip over and spill water on
'Humpy' Rose, the janitor of our
day. Yes, and them damn boys
does the same thing to me some
times the janitor told me.
THE house where | was born is
still standing. | took pictures of
the docks where I used to swim"
Mike says he didn't indulge in any
orgies. His nephew in Brooklyn
invited him into a third parlor one
day and they ordered "horse's
neck"
All it was, was a piece of lemon
in glass filled up with ginger ale
and it costs 90 cents" said Mike.

FARMER SAYS He
WANTS TO SPREAD
the GOOD NEWS
Would Like to Tell All Who
Suffer as He Did How
TanIaC Built Him
Up.

"a friend of mine who lives at
Munice, Kansas, put me on to this
Tanlac, and it is the finest medicines
l ever came across in my life," said
A. S. Thomas, a we'll known farmer
who lives in Munice, Kansas, while
talking with a Tanlac representa-
tive the other day.
"When I commenced taking Tan
lac" continued Mr.. Thomas, 81
couldn't walk as much as one block
without having to stop two or three
times to rest. Every part Of my
system seemed to be in a very
weak, rundown condition, which
was the after effects of a spell of
the ''Flu" I had about three months
ago. Ever since l got up from this
spell, my stomach has been in such
bad condition that I couldn't eat
anything heavy at all, but just had
to live on the lightest kind of food.
Even the few things I did eat would
sour on my stomach, and ! would
be bloated up with gas for hours
afterwards. My kidneys were in
bad condition, too, and would have
to get up four or five times every
night. I was constipated all the
time, and would have bad head
aches nearly every day, and would
often get so dizzy that I could hard.
ly stand on my feet. Then it just
seemed that every nerve in my body
was completely unstrung, and ]
never got a good nights sleep.
Why, I was actually so nervous at
times that I couldn't raise cup of
tea to my lips. I tried all sorts of
medicine, but never got any better
until l got started on this Tanlac.
"Well, sir, / hadn't taken more
than half bottle of Tanlac before
l began to improve, and from that
day to this have picked up about
as fast as a man could. l never
had such an appetite in my life, and
l eat just anything l want-and
that is about everything 1 see that
is good to eat-and l never suffer
the least bit afterwards. Ny stom.
och is in first class condition now,
and my kidneys seem to be all
right. too, for I am not bothered
about getting up all hours of the
night like I was before l took Tan
lac. My nerves are as steady as
a clock now, and l get in eight or
nine hours good, sound sleep every
night. Why, am SO well and
strong in every way that / walk
many miles every day now, and it
doesn't tire me at all. Yes, sir,
Tanlac is a real medicine, and !
am so happy over what it has done
for me that / just want to spread
the god news far and wide, for I
want to help others who suffer as
I did,"

In committee of the whole yes

Mayor Smith maintained all atti-

public protest forced him to conf

weeks he held out against the dis
tribution of ice on Sundays, even
going to the length of withholding
it from homes where sickness rem
dered its use imperative. When told
that his exclusion of ice from homes
where sickness demanded its use,
and that his stand would be respon-
sible for many deaths in Omaha, the
mayor would not relent, but attemp-
ted to mitigate the conditions by
providing that Sunday sales of ice
would have to be made on prescrip-
ions Of physicians.

proposition and the public continued
to c.snor for Sunday ice. The
mayor was obdurate, and before he
would agree to allow Sunday sales
he wired nearly all the large cities
of the country to ascertain their
practice. Upon learning that his
stand was frowned on by the mayors
in the majority OF metropolitan
cities, Mayor Smith reluctantly
agreed to modify his ruling.
Il am not in favor of a general
repeal OF the ordinance allowing ice
wagons on the streets on Sunday"
he said. This amendment simply
allows the sale at the plants to per-
sons who go after their ice"
