RAILROAD MAN
GAINS q POUNDS
Before TanIac Built Him UP Was So
Run Down He Lost Lots Of
Time From Work.

mo sir, l wasn't much surprised"
said August r. Newman, of S04 Green
field avenue, Milwaukee, Wis, in an
interview, recently, when got on the
scales the other night and found that

i have been eating life wolf and
picking UP ever since l finished my
first bottle Of Tanlac, little more
than two months ago.
Mr.. Newman has lived in Milwau-
kee for nearly forty-five years and is
employed as switchman for the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad
in the Union Depot yards. He has been
in the service Of this company for the
past fifteen years and is we'll known,
especially, among railroad people.
"Tanlac is certainly the finest medf-
cine going for person in the shape

been in mighty bad fix for twelve
years, or more, and l was also having
trouble with my back and just seemed
to be gradually playing out. After a
meal-and I always had to be very
careful what / ate-I would bloat up
with gas as tight as a drum and
couldn't bear my belt around me.
There were many things I could not
eat without just suffering agony after
wards. l also had severe pains in my
hips and back and would get so dizzy
sometimes while bending over to turn
a switch that I would nearly fall over.
My back was also very weak and hurt
me so 1t was all I could do to bend
over and throw a switch. Many a
time l was in so much misery could
not stay on the job, and lost lots OF
time on account of my condition. 1t
would take nearly all my wind going
up and down the box cars and II
had to run short distance was all
out Of breath. I was always 80 tagged
out after a nights work that would
just have to drag myself home.
But things are altogether different
with me now, for am just like new
man and never miss nights run.

thing pickles and pastries,
things I wouldn't dare touch before
the least trouble afterwards. l
used to be so nervous the least thing
would upset me and I couldn't rest
well, but now l can sleep like a log
even while the piano is being played
In the next room to me. My back used
TO ache so bad that would brace it
with pillows while sitting down, but
now it's the rarest thing that I ever
feel even the slightest pain, and I
never have dizzy spell. Tanlac has
put me in first class shape and If
anyone doubts this statement just
send them to me at the depot during
the night or at my home during the
day."

Tanks Drop Another.

Boston, July 26.-Although the Yankees outbatted the Red Sox in yesterday afternoons game and de- spite the fact that Huggins used three hurlers as against one by the SoX, the Red SoX triumphed, to 6.

BASEBALL TOMORROW.

The baseball game between the Pine Hills of Waterbury and the Pioneers at the Ellis street diamond tomorrow afternoon, is an attraction that should pack the field and stands.

Hobbies New Scheme.

Philadelphia, July 26.-Jeff Pfeffer, Brooklyns pitching ace, took a much longer and more strenuous Warmup than usual before yesterdays game and thereby hangs a tale. It seems that Uncle Robbie, in going over the box scores of the games Pfeffer has engaged in this season, found that Pfeffer invariably had been scored on during the early innings, while, as a rule, runs off Pfeffer after midgame were scarcer than hens teeth. Robbie thereby conceived the idea 8 good precipitation was what Jeff needed to start the game with. So yesterday he ordered an extra stiff and long warmup for the big right handler. The result was: Brooklyn, 5; Phila- delphia, 0. The score:
