TT. Worth Woman
Gains Forty-Three
Pounds on Tanlac
Spent Hundreds of Dollars for Treat
ments-Finds Relief at Last.

"No one can hardly imagine the Joy
| felt when, after taking Tanlac a
few weeks, my four years of almost
constant misery was gone and | found
that had actually gained forty-three
pounds besides" This statement was
made short time ago by Mrs. Mary
Wilson of 211 East First street, Fort
Worth, Texas, and is one of the most
remarkable yet published in connec-
ton with Tanlac.
81 paid out hundreds of dollars"
continued Mrs. Wilson, "and took all
kinds of treatment and medicines try
ing to get the relief few weeks use
of Tanlac has brought me. My stom-
ach was in such bad condition that
the little l would eat seemed to harm
me in place of doing me good. Gas
would form on my stomach and bloat
me up and keep me in misery for
hours after every meal. I had con-
tinual pain and distress in the pit of
my stomach, whether / ate anything
or not, and ! could hardly get a good
breath on account of it. | was con-
stantly belching up sour, undigested
food and suffered so at night from
the gas on my stomach that l could
scarcely sleep at all. Finally l got to
having attacks of acute Indigestion
and would almost die at times. These
attacks would come on suddenly and
wherever l happened to be would
fall as limp as a rag and would know
nothing for hours. My nerves became
all shattered and l lost weight and
strength until / was almost a total
wreck. Words fail me. / just can't
describe my awful suffering. Nothing
did me any good and l had little en-
enlargement to think would ever
find anything to get me out of my
trouble.
"One of my neighbors advised me to
try Tanlac and it couldn't have done
more if it had been made especially
for my case. I haven't had one of
those awful attacks of acute indiges-
ton since l began taking Tanlac and
all the gas and bloating have disap-
peared from my stomach entirely. My
Appetite was never better and / can
eat anything I want without it hurt
ing me one bit. My nerves are calm
and steady now and my sleep is sound
and restful. / can never pay the debt
of gratitude / owe Tanlac and the best
way know to show my appreciation
for the wonderful benefits l have re-
ceived, is to tell others what Tanlac
has done for me.
Tanlac is sold in Pennington by
the City Drug Store, in Desloge by C.
A. Robertson, Elvins by Reece Drug
Co., and in Bonnie Terre by the Bonnie
Terre Pharmacy Co. (adv.)

ANTI-HOG CHOLERA SERUM

Anti-hog- cholera serum is obtained
from healthy hogs which previously
have been made "hyper-immune," or
extra resistant to cholera, by special
laboratory treatment. The blood Sc
rum of such hogs contains the protec-
tive substances which prevent hog
cholera when injected into other hogs.
After the preparation of this serum
and before it is sent out for use, sam
pies are subjected to a rigid test to
determine its potency, or power to
prevent hog cholera. The methods OF
producing and testing the serum are
essentially the same in all laborator-
les operating under state or federal
supervision.
Proper care of the serum after it is
made is very essential. 1t is a bio
logical product which cannot with
safety be stored like ordinary drugs
and distributed from the shelves of
the drug stores. Serum should be
kept at a fairly low and constant tenn
perature until sent from the labora-
tory for immediate use. 1t is liable
to lose its potency through exposure
to heat and light, especially if bottles
are opened and the contents partly
used. 1t may, however, be stored
temporarily in the household ice chest
or in a cool cellar.
The University of Missouri Serum
Plant is provided with modern cold
storage facilities of large capacity

FARM BOYS
AND GIRLS MUST HAVE
A SQUARE DEAL

The country school is our biggest
problem, said Prof. j. d. Elliff, Di-
rector of Vocational Education in an
address before the Missouri Country
Life Conference section of the Farm
ers' Week Short Course at Columbia,
Mo. He presented data from the Mis-
souri, Rural School Survey, made by
the State Department of Public In
struction and the State Teachers As
ISOLATION, showing that, although the
country schools of Missouri train ap-
proximately half the boys and girls
Of the State, they do not fit them for
country life, they do not deal with
country problems, they face the child
away from the farm, they have been
neglected, and they have made little
progress.
According to the facts shown by this
survey as presented by Prof. Elliff,
Missouri ranks among the States of
the Union as follows:
Seventh in wealth;
Fifth in agriculture;
Second in mules;
Third in hogs and corn;
First in poultry;
First in pure-bred stock;
First in lead and zinc;
But thirty-second in education.
The following facts were presented:
In amounts of school property per
child in the State, Missouri ranks
25th. In amount spent per capita,
she ranks both, in amount spent per
child 32nd, in amount spent per 500
of wealth 9th, in salaries paid to
teachers 23rd, in salaries paid to coun-
ty superintendent 43rd, in days of
school per year goth, in number of pu-
pills in high schools Both.
Mr.. Elliff presented figures from
the Missouri school survey which show
that the country schools have an an
Inual expenditure of $5,000,000, while
the annual expenditure in the city
schools is $15,000,000 for practically
the same number of children. The
average annual expenditure per child
in the country is $13, in the city it is
$40.
AS a result of these conditions it is
shown by the survey that the country
pupil is behind the city pupil: in read
ing, to years; in writing, to-
years; in arithmetic, 2 to years; in
spelling, l year; and only one-third as
many finish the eighth grade in the
country as in the city.
AS way out of the bad situation
in which the country schools are
shown to be by the Missouri survey,
Mr.. Elliff advocated a larger unit
than the present country district for
the administration of rural education,
county board of education composed
Of five or seven leading citizens of the
county, and the removal of the con-
stitutional limitations which prohibit
the people of the country from spend
ing as much money on the education
of their children as the people in the
cities are permitted to spend on their
children, provided the people in the
country desire to do so.

THE LEAD BELT SITUATION

That coming events cast their
shadows before" is we'll established
axiom.
When applied to our great leac
concerns we all see its verify, without
doubt.
When a few weeks ago these com,
panies established fve-day week in
lieu of seven-day week, what has ac-
tually followed was clearly foreshad-
owed by that action.
We said, when this was done, that
it BODIED no good to the mine laborer.
1t is true that lead is not bringing
the phenomenal prices that were paid
for it during the prosecution of the
great war but the present market
price is no mean one by any means.
1t takes something near three and a
half cents to produce lead and even at
the present market. value of over five
cents the pound, it seems that fair
income above the cost of production
would accrue to the mine owners. But
they want the earth, and then some.
Had these mining kings as much
concern in stabelizing labor conditions
as they have in piling up huge divi-
dends, every furnace in st. Francois
county would be in full blast.
The immense profits these concerns
reaped out of the great war should
have instilled patriotism enough in
their breasts for them to have con-
tinued operations. until better adjust
ments obtained throughout the country
along all lines, especially in the labor
field.
Bolshevism is worthy of condemna-
ton, but what inspires it? 1t is the
aggregated wealth in the hands of the
few.
1t is caused by the few being able
to manipulate the interest of the
many, to the advantage of their 1.-THE
few logged determination to swim
in high clover whether the great mass
of mankind lives or not or in what
manner they live.
They should remember that our
great nation came out of the great war
victorious simply because patriotism
and the love of mankind heaved in ev-
cry breast and that more than two
million Of our noble young American
manhood were fighting on foreign
soil, and other millions were in train
ing to enter into the great struggle, to
preserve in tact our nation as well as
the nations over the seas.
Had we failed in this victory of
right against might, in all probability
these great lead industries would be
paying tribute to bill kaiser instead
Of their present owners.
Think of these things.

MR.. BOOZE FIGHTER

Good bye, Mr.. Booze; you have
about lost your job. You have been
killing and stealing, and also swipcd
and robbed. The man that sells these
good mild drinks will have to get out
and go to work. They won't be behind
! the bar then, and act like they are
clerks. Come and get a good mild
drink. 1t will do you good, they
claim, when it will make you so rot
ten drunk you can't see-and cider is
its name.
Papa goes to town sometimes to
get some meat and bread and spends
his money for beer and booze when
his children are neither clothed nor
fed. Let US stamp the booze out and
pray for the barrels not to burst. As
long as they keep in our town they
grow from bad to worse.
Papa is coming back, mamma said.
You know, they have been apart; he
wouldn't let his beer and booze alone
and got mean at his heart. He would
break our dishes up and tear down the
stove and bed and run US away from
our little home and sometime shoot
some lead. When they stop making
the stuff the DRINKS can't get drink.
Maybe, then, they will open their
eyes and clear their minds and also
stop and think; papa won't be in town
then reeling on the street and drink
ing. his booze at the bar, and nothing
at home to eat. Papa, then, will be
at home, not drunk on the street; ba-
by will have clothes to wear and shoes
on her feet. Some men will spend
their money for beer and booze, get
drunk and get in Jail, when his little
wife is at home and no one to go his
bail. Get some one to pay my fine,
dear wife, or some one to go my bail,
! never will drink that booze again,
if | get out of Jail" He will promise
his wife every time, l never knew it
to fail, when he gets drunk in the sa-
loon and the law puts him in Jail. l
never heard of such thing as that,
the DRINKS will say, and | have been
around when they know right in their
hearts they have it in our towns the
man that talks that way; as that you
know he voted wet they never will
knock our beer and booze out you will
hear him swear and bet if you are
guilty of such trick I mentioned
just stop right where you are never
take drink again and never tend a
bar. H. STEWART.

HOME ECONOMY MUST GO
ON, SAYS MISSOURI WOMAN

New Orleans, La, Feb. Awe are
now facing the great period of world
economy" said Mrs. Charles w.
Greene, of Columbia, Mo-, who ar
rived here today for the State meet
ing of the Federation of Women's
Clubs. Mrs. Greene is chairman of
the home economics department of the
national organization.
"That economy" continued Mrs.
Greene, must always start in the
kitchen, for supplying the worlds
kitchen is now tn greatest problem
facing the world. We have just had
it proved that food will win the war;
Are we going to prove that food will
save the world?
ITO save food. we must, of course,
produce. The National War Garden
Commission at Washington informs
me that the drive for Victvry Gar
dens has opened throughout the coun-
try. That means that food close to
the kithcen door will be produced.
Everything possible must be done to
save every bit of that food that is
not eaten.
"In this campaign the General Fed
Grafton of Women's Clubs will do its
utmost. Because of the war the wo-
men of the country have turned as
never before to the value of the home
economics of every description, par
ticularly food economics. They are
eager and willing to learn. The work
to be done means that the cornerstone
of better living for future generations
can now be laid"

but refused to support a resolution Of
fered by Representative Maxey. Dem
ocrat, of Henry county, which favored
the tariff, provided the tax was given
to miners direct instead Of to the op-
