 T had such a bad case of stomach trouble and rheumatism" he continued, that I had to quit working. Every thing I would eat disagreed with me and made me miserable all the tine My limbs and joints would ache so coulo hardly stand it and, in fact. for a whole month before taking Tanlac I wasn't able to put in full days work at all
 "One of my friends had been taking Tanlac and told me it had done him a world of good. so got me bottle to try. Well. sir. I began to feel bet ter from the first dose, and before the week was out I was back on my job and have been working right along ever since. I never saw anything be- fore to give such quick relief as Tan lac, and haven't had a single symp- tom of my trouble since I started on it."

 Jackson, Miss, July 12.-(Special) The meeting of the Mississippi Well fare league this week was one of the most important gatherings ever held in the state. so far as possible results are concerned. The spirit was one of good will to all men along educa- tional. industrial and other economic hnes-the platform on which white and black, rich and poor. town and coun- try folks can all stand flatfooted
 The educational committee met at the Edwards house Wednesday night to define the activities of the league, which contemplates statewide organ ization on an extensive basis, and the chief objects of which are set forth in the platform presented to the full meeting by James Alexander of Jack son It declares that the organization
 was formed by a group of men who felt that its development along proper lines would make for the general moral, infellectual, spiritual and ma terial welfare of all our people," and It Is hoped that it might coordinate the activities of the many civic, re- ngious and labor organizations nav ing related objects and serve as a sort or clearing house for them all.
 Its purpose is to help such organlza- lions and to secure help from them in performing the tasks in which we are all NlldlIy luleEeSteN.
 It Is an organization of the white men and women of Mississippi seek ing the development of the states well fare. which means the rational bet terment of all the people, of whatever race. condition or creed. It is a medium through which the more for tunate, materially and intellectually, may help those less happily crcum- stanced. where all may help one an other. It. is non-political, non-ssc- tarian and no mans political affilia- tions are considered or questioned in the common undertaking
 Plans have been made to finance the organization on an extensive pro- gramme on seven leading subjects: Education, industry, rural life. labor. public health, natural resources anI the negro.
 The meeting was presided over by A. H. Stone of Washington county, and J. c. Wilson of Jackson was secre- tary. After prayer by Rev. H. M. King, pastor of the Second Baptist citizen of Memphis, spoke on the proposition that this is White Mans Country; Dr. Bruce R.

NEW r. f. ID. FOR
SEELEY DISTRICT

Seeley, April 9.--Seeley is about to
secure a new rural mail route from
the Seeley office into the district

been settled by the letting of the mail

ders have been received from Wash

been appointed by the Chamber of
Commerce and the Seeley Farm Cen

CALIFORNIA MAN
GAINS IS POUNDS
SMITH FEELS LIKE NEW MAN
SINCE TAKING TANLAC-SUF-
FERED THIRTY YEARS.

One of the strongest and most
convincing evidences of the popular
ity of Tanlac throughout America is
the large number Of letters that are
being received daily from well known
men and women, telling of the re-
markable results they have derived
from its use.
Among the many received in the
past few days is one from John Smith
1913 Eighth street, Richmond. Cali
fornia, which is especially interest
ing. Mr.. Smith states that he had
suffered for twenty years, with his
stomach, liver and Kidneys, and had
reached the point where he wished
each breath would be the last He
also says that when he began TAX
ing Tanlac he weighed only one hun
dred and forty-eight pounds, but that
he now weighs one hundred and six
ty-six making a gain of eighteen
poundszand that he feels like a
new man. Following is his letter
in full:
"To Whom 1t May Concern: l.
