It will be remembered that a few
years ago, some trouble was expert
enced by shots glancing on the earth
back of the range and scooting over
the hill, landing in too close proxi-
nifty to some of the dwellings in line.
That was obviated by a system of
breastworks back of the butts and
that system has now been added to
and improved.

st. Paul Man Had Suffered Since He
Was 5oy-ls Well Man Now for
First Time in Twenty Years

This Tanlac beats anything I ever
saw in my life" said Luke Finnegan
a well known employee of the s. NJ
& S. S. NJ. r. r. and residing at 1o1O
Agate street, St. Paul, Mimi. in tell
ing the Tanlac representative the
other day of his recovery. Mr.. Fin.
negan has lived in st. Paul thirty
seven years.
II suffered with stomach trouble
ever since 1 was q small boy" con-
tinued Mr.. Finnegan, and l guess ]
have spent enough money for medi-
cines and treatments to buy a nice
home, but nothing did me any good
until took Tanlac.
Most everything I ate would up
set me, and sometimes for hours
after meals suffered from pains in
my stomach. Gas would form and
get up around my heart SO bad I
thought at times I had heart trou-
BILE. I had awful smothering spells
and sometimes would have to get up
out of bed at night and walk the
floor so as to get my breath. When
l turned around I would get so dizzy
/ would nearly topple over. I had
such terrible headaches sometimes
my head felt like 1t would split wide
open. and I was dreadfully nrvous.
was constipated, too, and had to be
taking pills all the time.
s"Sometimes awful pains would get
I'D In my shoulders and neck and
could hardly turn my head"
II finally got so bad off it was all
I could do to work and it looked like
nothing would help me, but l did not
lose hope and when / began to hear
SO many good things about Tanlac /
decided to try it, and it was a good
decision, for after taking four bottles
of this medicine I'm like a different
man. The first few doses seemed to
soothe my stomach, and by the time
the first bottle was finished l had a
fine appetite. Now l can eat just
anything 1 want. enjoy it. and not
have any bad after effects. I don't
have that mean. bitter taste in my
mouth like l did before, gas don't
form on my stomach and all the
| pains are gone. I'm not nervous,
never have headaches and l sleep
just fine. My strength has returned
and my work is no longer burden.
In fact, for the first time in over
twenty years feel like a well man."
