known fireman who is employed at
the Milwaukee Novelty Dye Works,
and who lives at 1857 Third Street,
Milwaukee, the other day.
II had about made all arrange
ments to be operated on" continued
Mr.. Petersen, "and after reading so
much about Tanlac, decided to post
pone the operation and give this
medicine trial. / had suffered so
long from stomach trouble without
getting any relief, that I was finally
told that an operation was the only
thing left. l had reached the point
where ! would have terrible cramping
spells in less than thirty minutes
after every meal. I would often al
most lose my breath on account of
gas forming so bad, and the misery
l suffered from headaches will never
be known to anybody except myself.

not stand to have anybody talk to me.
l finally got to where I could hardly

a month at time.
"Well, as have already said I took
Tanlac as a last resort before SUBJ
mitting to an operation, and I am
mighty glad I did, for it overcame
my troubles, and I am now q sound,

it never causes me the least bit Of
trouble afterwards. I have gained
ten pounds already and am back at
my work and never lose a minutes
time. A hard days work doesn't hurt
me, either, for just hustle home and
wash up and eat as hearty supper as
anybody, and 60 to bed and stretch
out and sleep like a school boy all
night long. Those headaches and
smothering spells have left me, too,
and in fact, am in fine condition
in every way, and I'll tell the world
that Tanlac is responsible for It all"

MILLIONS SAVED IN
EDUCATION BY METRICs
Noted Educators Declare That Metric
Measures Would Mean Great Saw
ing to Our Country.

San Francisco, July 31.--America' s
greatest educators are supporting the
move made by the World Trade Club
of San Francisco to secure the adop-
ton of metric units of weights and
measures by Britannia and the United
States. 1.-THE adoption Of the metric
system by the United States would
facilitate teaching of mathematics and
applied sciences in schools" writes
President Emeritus Charles w. Eliot
of Harvard University. President
Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia
has also sent the World Trade Club a
telegram of support. DR.. Joseph v.
Collins, an eminent aducator, declares
that the people of the United States
lose $314,000.000 yearly in education
because of the time wasted in teaching
a system so much more complicated
than the metric system.
