SOON SAW CHANGE
Prominent Police Official Praises
Tanlac.
Son Eats Better, Sleeps Better,
Works Better, Now.

Nearly everybody in Kansas City
either knows or has heard of Capt.
]. J. Ennis, who lives at 532 Jackson
avenue, Kansas City, Mo. Captain
Ennis has been a member of the
Kansas City police force for thirty
years and is not only one of the old
est in point of service, but one of the
most popular officers in the depart
ment.
In a recent statement regarding the
benefits his son. Wilfred. has derived
from the use of Tanlac, Captain En-
mis- said:
The change have seen take place
in my sons health during the past
few weeks certainly speaks well for
Tanlac. Wilfred served with Company
A, 18th Engineers. in France for near
ly two years and on returning was suf-
fering from rheumatism and stomach
trouble and was IN a very badly rum
down condition. He tells me he bad
been suffering from aching joints in
his shoulders, arms and legs for al
most a year. He had no appetite and
his stomach was so weak and upset
that he could not retain much of any
thing he would eat. He complains
of headache most of the time, often
had dizzy spells, and was SO weak he
could just barely drag around.
II had been reading so many state
ments from Kansas City people about
Tanlac that 1 decided there must be
something to it, and after inquiring
about it of some parties. whom L have
known for years. at the drug store.
bought a bottle for Wilfred. Well, he
had not finished the first bottle until
his appetite was better and the pains
in his knees and shoulders were not
so bad. He has taken three bottles
up to this time and can eat and di-
gest anything he wants. He was very
nervous and restless before taking
Tanlac and could not sleep much, but
now he sleeps eight to nine hours
every night. He now has a good po-
sition as, yard clerk for the Kansas
City-Fern1inal Railway and Is able to
walk around and do his work with
ease, as the rheumatic pains have left
him entirely. He has recommend Il
Tanlac to several of his friends, who
have used it with fine results. 1 con-
slider Tanlac the best medicine out for
such troubles and l will gladly verify
this statement for anyone who may
call to see me or write me-"
Tanlac is sold in Topeka by Tully-

WHITE SOX IN LEAD
Take Advantage of Yankee Slump and
Are Three Games Ahead.

New York. July 14-The White Sox
are taking full advantage OF whatever
it is that has happened to the Yanks.
but they also are showing signs of a
slipping that may come in handy for
the New Workers within a few days.
While the Indians and Tigers havo
been mauling the daylights out OF the
Higgins pennant chaser, the Sox have
been rnanhandling the Athletics and
Red Sox in such bruising fashion that
the Chicagoans have vaulted a full
three games in front and are going
fast.
In winning the victories that have
pushed them to the fore, however the
Sox have been forced to pile up any
where from five to ten runs. for the
opposition clubs have found It very
easv to land on Kid Gleason's pitchers.
Yesterday for instance. the Red Sox
accumulated nine runs Off the W mite
Sox slabbers, six OF them in a single
session. -.
And this portends nothing good for
the Sox when they again meet the
stronger clubs.
THE Yankee slump-it can be called
nothing else-is in advanced stages.
They should have beaten the Indians,
Judging from what the Browns and
Senators have done to the Foil men
and were expected to have a fairly
easv time with the Tigers. But both
clubs smote the Higgins clan fore
and aft. Star pitchers apparently
have had nothing to recommend them
at the paymaster's office, and Higgins
has declined to experiment with any
thing else.
The race in the American is holding
practically all the interest, in spite of
tho bloody fight now in progress be-
tween the Cincinnati Reds and the
Giants. The Giants crept half a game
closer to the lead by defeating the
Pirates yesterday. The Reds were

WILL BOOST FAIR
Banners Printed To Be Put on
Automobile Tops.
Every Tourist Is Asked To Get
One at Once.
SUPPLY At The STATE JOURNAL
Tourists Passing Thru City
Invited To Come Back.
Fair Officials Now Busy Pre-
pairing for Big Event.
SUPPLY At The STATE JOURNAL

If you are going away from Topeka
in an automobile you can now help
to boost one of the greatest institu-
tions of your home city-The Kansas
Free Fair. Phil Eastman, secretary.
has completed arrangements whereby
every tourist will be supplied with a
big banner, advertising the biggest
free fair in the world.
The banners are handsomely gotten
up and are made to be strung across
the back of automobile tops. They
also are made SO that they can be
fastened on with very little trouble.
On them is printed the following:
THE KANSAS FREE FAIR
TOPEKA
Sept. 8, Q, 10, IL, IL and 10.
A supply of these banners will be
kept at the business office of The To-
peka State Journal and at the offices
of Phil Eastman in the Central Ma
tional Bank building. Every automo-
bile owner who is going away to an
state is urged to get one of these BAN
ners and place it on his car.
To Every Tourist.
A great many tourists are now
going to Colorado, Wyoming and
other western states and IL every one
will carry a banner it is believed The
Kansas Free Fair will be more ex-
tensively advertised than ever before.
Also, 1t is planned to watch out for
tourists from the east who are pass
ing thru and while inviting them to
return in time to take in the fair to
ask them to do a little boosting for the
big fair by carrying a banner.
In previous years similar advertis-
ing has been done with remnants, but
r-ac hof nv
sons who got the pennants put them
up in their homes along with the
Rah-rah pennants of colleges and a
great deal of the effectiveness of this
form of advertising was lost. The
banners that have been prepared
could not exactly be considered mural
decorations for homes, but they should
attract attention on automobiles and
have an advantage over the pennants
in that the lettering is larger and can
be read from a much greater dis
lance.
Officers Are Enthusiastic.
Eastman says that only the greatest
of calamities can keep this years fair
from being the greatest in the history
Of Topeka. He says the displays and
exhibits. especially the livestock and
machiner-- exhibits, are certain to be
larger than ever before. and the many
special features that other fairs will
not have are expected to draw visitors
from every county in the state.
One of these features that will be
a big drawing card will be the United
States government display. The fair
officials have been assured this will
be brought to Topeka and it is under
stood that no other place in the state
will receive 1t.
Newspaper advertising of the fair
has already begun and Secretary East
man has a large force at work every
day on fair business
