He spoke about 25 minutes and in that time told at least two dozen good jokes. and yet on trying to sum up his address it's hard for me to decide whether it was dominated by humor or pathos. or
 whether the burden of his message was serious or dominated by the spirit of fun. It takes some artist in words and some gray matter to so mix up a talk that every one hearing it goes away feel
 ing that he got more than his share of pleasure and good out of it.
 He is in the late Bob Taylors class as story teller, either humorous or
 pathetic; his fancy as>he played in and
 out, as he constantly did, in the Arthur ian legend and made the idylls of the king live before us, was triumph of art; and the sober vein in which he pleaded with fathers to be companions oi
 their sons and fight for civic righteous ness brought back a memory of Sam Jones at his best in his campaigns aginst the three great evils which from time immemorial have tempted the sons oi men. ~ congratulate the Y.

M Waltz lives IN what Il known as
Old Tacoma. Wash, at 33rd and Law
renee streets. he has been resident
OF that city for nearly IS years
''Tanlac has certainly been remark
able in my case" he continued, "for
il has not only relieved me Of my ter
rfble suffering but I have actually
gained Is pounds IN weight ard have
Just finished my third bottle 1 had
been bothered with my stomach and
kidneys for twenty years and was
never able TO find anything TO do me
any good The pains in the small OF
my back and shoulders and IN my left
hip and knee were awful Sometimes
I was in so much misery that
couldn't get around at all and would
have 10 lay off from my work for a
week at a time, or more Last sum
mer I got in such a bad Tx that
had to give up my work entirely Ny
stomach was all out OF whack and 1
suffered agony from Indigestion The
gas which formed on my stomach
would get up into my chest and al

In my back and hip got so bad at times
I couldn't straighten up n 1 stopped
over and my kidneys disturbed me so
often at night that I couldn't get any
sound sleep
Finally a friend OF mine who works
at the shlpyards advised me 10 get
Tanlac and as nothing else had ever
done me any good began taking this
medicine. BY the time had finished
my second bottle hadn't an ache or
a pain about me and, so, 1 can say
Tanlac beats anything / have ever
run across in 20 years haven't had
TO lose a mlnuts from my work since
that time. Ny appetite Is great I

nothing hurts me. Ny kidneys are
