VERMONT MAN
NOW PRAISES IT
Master Builder Says Work
He Couldn't Do Before
Taking Tanlac. Is Like
Play Now

The best evidence of the merits OF a
medicine is what people who have act
ltally taken it have to say about 1t. This
is true and beyond all question when
such statements are made by people OF
high character and published right in
the community where each and every
fact can be investigated and verified.
Joseph Andre Chicome, the master car
penter and builder, of SO Worth street,
Ninooski, Vermont, near Burlington,
after testing the powers OF Tanlac, says:
| Il believe in giving everything its due
and | want to say right now that | just
can't recommend Tanlac too highly for
what it has done in my case. | had SUI
fered with rheumatism in my joints Tor
two years and could not do my work
without great pain and hardship. | had
lost almost - pounds in weight and was
50 nervous, weak and shaky that | could
hardly hold my working tools in my
hand. My sleep was never sound, | was
dizzy IL great deal of the time, and
nervous and irritable that the least noise,
either in or about the house, would upset
me completely.
My daughter advised me TO try Tan
lac, having heard of it through a friend
from Montreal, Canada / had already
uldUN other NilIouC sat
iisfaetory results, but | had taken only
Il few doses of Tanlac until | felt great
relief. The pains have disappeared from
my legs and joints entirely now and [
have also been relieved of my nervous
ness and dizziness. / sleep like aschild
at night and my appetite is so enormous
that my wife jokingly said the other
day that would either have to add u
her allowance for running the table or
| stop eating SO much. Saving and chop
| ping wood was work | could not do be-
| fore taking Tanlac, owing to weakness,
: but now it is only recreation for me.
q Life is now worth living for me and with
such wonderful results ] cannot help

! many people personally about how it has
= helped me and am glad to make a public
? statement for what it may be worth to
, lothers who are needing just such medi-
= cine"
There is not a single portion of the
! body that is not benefited by the helpful
action of Tanlac. which begins its work
by stimulating the digestive and assimi-
> latiye organs, thereby enriching the blood
and invigorating the whole system.
- Next. it enables the weak worn out
81 stomach to thoroughly digest It's food
thereby permitting the nourishing ele
J ments to be converted into blood, bone
and muscle.
!: 1T overcomes, it is said, that great
- exciting cause OF disease-weakness. 1t
= renders the body vigorous and elastic
~ keeps the mind clear and energetic and
e throws off the symptoms of nervousness

and physical overwork, quickens eonval-

nd comfort to all suffering from sucb iron.

broad statement but, no matter what
some sour visaged fanatics may say TO
the contrary, it is the truth. The movies
may give exaggerated ideas about some
things-the wild, tempestuous life of the
cowboy, for instance, or the wiles of the
virulent vampire-but, all these things
aside, they have done and are doing i'm
mensely more good than they are doing
harm.
Consider the matter for Just mo-
ment or two. The movies do their most
good among families Husbands who
never used to take their wives anywhere
in the days before screen entertainment,
now take them regularly once a week or
| more to the neighborhood playhouse.
Parents who formerly had very little in
common with their children now enjoy
| the pictures as much as their youngsters
| and frequently take the children to the
theatre with them. Grandmothers who
| used to think their days were past Vie
with their grandchildren in their admira
ton for the leading stars.
Never has there been anything which
gave families such wholesome, pleasant
entertainment and which has brought
families such a delightful common inter
est. And if that isn't having a mighty
beneficent influence upon American life
what is?

For the Taxpayers Convenience.
barre Times. ]

1t ought to have been sufficiently ad.
vertised by this time that the people OF
Vermont are supposed TO have their deal
ings IN government tax matters with the
collector of internal revenue for the
Vermont district, James E. Kennedy,
whose office is located at Burlington. The
appointment of Vermont collector was
made to serve the convenience of most of
the people of Vermont, who hitherto had
been forced to communicate with the
collectors Office at Portsmouth, n H.
Some of the people have failed 10 take
eognizanee of the change and are still
botllering some other official than the
one especially designated for Vermont
So all should bear in mind that in pay.
ment of income and other government
taxes the communications should be d.
reeted to Collector Kennedy of Burling
ton and not to Portsmouth. n. H., or to
the government at Washington. With
the promised establishment of division
| offices at Montpelier and Rutland and
sub division offices at ST. Johnsbury and
Bellows Falls. there win be still greater
convenience to those who are compelled
to have dealings with the government in
these particulars.

No Patience with Fraud.
burlington Free Press

Vermont is a Republican state, but
our people have no patience with a
Republican United States senator any
more than with Democratic. public
official who spends hundred thousand
dollars in violation of the law to Sc
cure an election. If Newberry, of
Michigan, is guilty of violating the
laws to protect the sanctity of the bal
lot box and to guard against wholesale
fraud and corraptioB,. he should be
punished as such offenses deserve. The
inquiry should be as pitiless as it should
be searching. The fact that he may
have let somebody else spend the mon
ev for him. should not save him from
the penalty Of guilt.

Forgot WAITING Bride.

When John Kemble. the gifted TRACE
dian, was married, he returned to the
stage to play Hamlet on his wedding
evening. Whether his mind became so
absorbed in the character as to ex-
clude all other matters of vital impor-
tance, we cannot say; but for the time
he forgot his waiting bride and what
had befallen him on that fateful day,
and went off to his own room on the
conclusion of the performance at the
theater.
