COULDN'T RAISE
HAND TO HEAD
Farmer Gains Thirty Pounds And
Gets Rid of Rheumatism By TAX
ing Tanlac

Eyes, sir, | certainly can endorse
Tanlac, for know what it will do
and know from personal experience"
said Robert Kersch, well known and
prosperous farmer living at Spencer,
Neb, While in the Central Drug store,
in Milwaukee, Wis, the other day.
Il am here on a visit to my mother
who lives at 1888 Lewis avenue, - con-
tinued Mr.. Kersch, land as my Tan
lac gave out / thought / would just
drop in and get another bottle. This
medicine has done so much for me
that I just can't afford to be without
it. Three years ago, my health went
down completely and suffered like
blazes up to a couple of months ago
when / got hold of Tanlac. My stom-
ach was in an awful condition. In
fact, had gotten to the point where
everything | ate disagreed with me,
and it just seemed that would die
from the awful cramping spells. l
would often have after meals. Very
often gas would form SO bad that it
would just choke me UP and almost
cut my breath Off also suffered
from binding headaches, every day
or SO. Then too, I had a pain in the
small Of my back nearly ali the time,
and if stopped over I could hardly
straighten up again. In addition to all
these troubles l had rheumatism in
my left shoulder so bad that most
of the time I was not able to raise my
hand to my head. I just seemed to
lose all the strength and energy L
had, and fell off in weight from one
hundred and fifty-fiye pounds, to one
hundred and five pounds and was so
weak and run down l could hardly
get about.
when a man came out on the farm
one day to build bridge, and as
soon as he heard about the condition
l was in, he advised me to take Tan
lac, and also told me how it had
overcome similar troubles for him.
Well, sir, | have actually gotten back
thirty pounds of my lost weight al
ready and when it comes to being
sound and healthy there isn't a man
in this country who has anything
on me. Why, am as well and strong
as l ever was in my life, and my
stomach is in such fine condition that
/ can eat just anything / want and
never suffer particle afterwards.
No cramping spells, no more rheuma-
tism, and in fact, all my troubles are
gone and I just feel fine all the
time. never had such an appetite,
and can sit down to the table and eat
as many big meals a day as any
body Oh! / tell you it is simply
wonderful the way Tanlac knocked
my troubles out and made me into a
sound, we'll man, and I can get out
and do as much hard work on the farm
as any man out. there. / am strong
for Tanlac, and as long as live
will never dose a chance to say a
good word for it.
Tanlac is sold in Baraboo by Fisher
Bros at Reedsburg by Mr.. Henry
Thieman and in Sank City by G.
NaffZ.

RADICAL DELEG ATES
REFUSE TO APPLAUD
Organized Labor Answers Opponents
and Enemies Within BY Re
Electing Safe and Sane"
Leader.

Atlantic City, n. J.. June 21.-
Samuel Gompers was today reelected
president Of the American Federation
of Labor, in annual convention here
at a salary of $4,000 a year
Frank Morrison, Washington, and
Daniel j, Tobin, Indianapolis, were
unanimously reelected secretary and
treasurer respectively. James Dun
can, of Quincy, Mass, was reelected
first Vlce-presldent, and Joseph f..
Valentine, of Cincinnati, second vice
president.
John R. Alpine, Chicago, having
resigned as third president, the
vice president below him were moved
up. Frank Duffy, indianapolis, thus
became third William Green, Indian
apolis, fourth; W. d. Mahon, Detroit,
fifth; 7. A. Rickert, Chicago, sixth;
Jacob Fischer, Indianapolis, seventh,
and Matthew Wool, Chicago, eighth
president.
When the delegates arose to their
feet to cheer the veteran workmen's
leader, James Duncan, of Seattle, the
only delegate who voted mo and
Perley Grow, of Lon Angeles and
other so-called radical leaders remain
ed seated. The proposition of these,
however, was small.
In expressing appreciation of his
reelection, Mr.. Gompers said the
selection was American labor's answer
to it's traducers and opponents. Mr.
Gompers was opposed by the radical
element in the Federation.
One radical voted against the re-
election of Mr.. Gompers and hand
full of delegates sat in their chairs
while the rest staged demonstra-
ton in honor of their leader, who said
his election was organized labor's
answer to its traducers and opponents.
Second in Importance was the adop-
ton Of a resolution directing the exc
cutive council to investigate and take
action in regard to joint resolution
now before congress providing for
establishment of conference of in
dustrial heads. According to infor-
nation submitted to the convention
the plan would bring together indus
trial heads and labor leaders "to study
problems affecting capital and labor
and suggest remedial legislation"
Mention of the proposed plan
brought storm of denunciation from
the delegates, radicals as we'll as con-
servatives.
President Gompers announced he
had sent telegram to sponsors of the
resolution in the senate and house as
soon as he heard about the plan.
