HEAD SALESMAN
SPENT HUNDREDS
WITHOUT RESULTS
Burton Suffered Twenty Years
Before Finding the Right
Medicine-Tanlac Restores
Health.

In speaking of the marvellous way In
which Tanlac has relieved him of a
long standing case of rheumatism, B.
e. Burton, head salesman in the whole
sale fruit and vegetable department at
Lutey Bros, Butte, Mont, living at 662
South Montana Street, recently said:
ut is simply astonishing that just
a. few bottles of Tanlac should fix me
up in almost no time, after had spent
almost every dollar / earned in the last
twenty years trying to get relief from
that awful rheumatism"
Before coming to Butte Mr.. Burton
lived for ten years in Spokane, Wash,
where he was salesman for the Inlpe
rial Trading Company of that city.
II tell you what" he continued, II
have gone through all stages of rheu
matism and the agonies I have had to
endure simply cannot be described. The
trouble first came on me about twenty
years ago. My shoulders, knees and
ankles gave me the most worry and
ached so at times that l hardly had any
use for myself About three years ago
it got so bad that ! was laid up in bed
for six long months, and when / got
up again had to so about on crutches
for three months and till recently I
never did get it out of my system, al
though / have spent hundreds of dol
lars in trying to get Strengthened out
I went to Hot Springs, Arkansas, but
without result and then / tried mud
baths nearer home, but got no benefit
from that treatment either A little
while ago I felt it coming on pretty bad
again. My appetite left me, nothing
tasted right, ! was constipated and
suffered from awful headaches every
few days. The pain in my shoulders
and knees was so agonizing that could
hardly sleep and l would wake up six
or seven times during the night racked
with pain. Why, ct the time I started
taking Tanlac couldn't raise my arms
as high as my shoulders to save my
life and was unable to put on my coat
without somebody helping me, and my
knees We're so stiff and hurt SO bad |
could hardly walk.
after reading SO much about Tanlac
decided to try it and l hadn't fin
ished my first bottle before the stiff
ness began to leave my joints, and now
never suffer o bit of pain or incon-
venience. My second bottle gave me a
whacking big appetite that constipa-
ton is relieved and I never have
headache. / sleep Ike a log all night.
and am lucky X I wake up in time for
breakfast before going to work. 1 GER
tainly am glad to endorse Tanlae ard
only hope my experience with this Won
derful medicine will help someone else

AFTER SILK STOCKING
PROMOTERS,

During the debate on the Hall pro-
moter's bill, Representative Hall OF
Oneida county, said that if the mea-
sure becomes a law it would prevent
the lilly handed, high collared, silk
stocking artists from going into the
pockets of the people," Representative
Jones of Idaho was one of those who
fought the measure claiming it to be
unconstitutional and by using the
term of Other enterprises" left lati-
tude that a Philadelphia lawyer could
not describe He contended the bill
was so wide open" that you could
drive a four horse team into it and
turn around without getting a
scratch. Harrison of ShoShone county,
also spoke against the measure.
In killing the bill to give more power
to the secretary of the board Of health
1t was contendcd by the opponents of
the measure that it gave too much
power to one man and Issrmtted in
discriminate closing of places of bust
ness. The bill failed to pass by a vote
of 80 to %.
STACKER MEMORIAL.
The memorial to congress protesting
against the action of the secretary of
war regarding conscientious DIRECTORS
says in part:
Whereas. by a recent order of the
secretary of war conscientious objec-
tors, general prisoners ut the United
States disciplinary barracks, Fort
Lcavenworth, Kan, who refused to
wear the uniform of our country have
been honorably discharged from the
service with full pay.
NOW therefore, we your memorial
lists do hereby protest i'm the name of
our loyal sons and in the name OF
thousands of loyal homes against this
discrimination by our government
against our heroic soldery.
The issuance of new clothes and
the payment of wages to conscientious
DIRECTORS encourages disloyalty and
dishonors patriotism. The action of
the secretary of war in paying the
conscientious DIRECTORS who have been
snug and safe and we'll fed a soldiers
wage is an incentive to discomfort and
is "a reflection on every man who Wore
tho uniform. We resent such a policy

for it eXalts slackcrism and pacifism
by making them both safe and profit
able. Our soldiers and sailors risked
all for the nation and should be hon
ored. Their wage though small, should
be wage of honor. An honorable dis
charge from the United SCtates army
will under legislation pending both in
state legislatures and in congress en-

which should under no circumstance
be granted to those who evaded the
