Il WAS SURPRISED"
Gets Fine Results From Taking
Tanlac.
Rheumatism and Indigestion
Gone Now.

II can now understand why so
many people are talking about this
Tanlac, for three bottles of it has done
me more good than all the rest of the
medicine 1 have taken in the last ten
years put together" said Walter
Smith, who lives at 1857 Usage Ave,
Kansas City, Kansas the other day.
II can't say that 1 had real well
day during the entire ten years" he
continued, land L actually suffered
more than I will ever be able to tell.
My stomach was in very bad condi-
ton. and every time l ate anything L
would suffer for hours afterwards with
sour stomach, and would be terribly
bloated up with gas. My arms and
legs would often go to sleep and
would have to rub them for long
time to get relief. 1 didn't sleep very
much on account of the awful condi-
ton of my nerves. and would get. up
every morning feeling tired and worn
out. Then, in the spring of the year
I would suffer terribly from rheuma-
tism. and 1 finally got so weak and
run down that 1 was hardly able to
do very much work.
$50 much was being said about
Tanlac that I thought 1 would give it
a trial and see if it would do me any
good, and Just want to say right here
that 1 was actually surprised by the
big results. 1 never had a better APP
petite in = my life, and When II comes
to eating 1 don't pass up anything that
is put 4on the table. 1 don't know
what it is to have indigestion or sour
stomach now, and 1 am never both
cred with gas forming on my stomach
after meals. My nerves are as steady
as a clock, and I sleep like log every
night, and when get up every morn
ing 1 don't have that tired, worn out
feeling like I did. I have gained
twelve pounds in weight in the last
three weeks, and 1 just feel tip top all
the time. Tanlac has gotten all that
rheumatism out of my system and I
believe it will keep it out. so 1 am
going to stick to Tanlac for while
longer. I talk Tanlac everywhere 1
go. and 1 am very glad to have this
opportunity to recommend it to every
body"

Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair. be care
full what you use. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too much
alkali. which is very injurious. as it
dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensive
soaps or anything else all to pieces.
You can get this at any drug store
and a few ounces will last the whole
family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in. about a teaspoonful is
all that is required. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather.
cleanses thoroly, and rinses out easily
The hair dries quickly and evenly, and
is soft. fresh looking, bright, fluffy
wavy and easy to handle. Besides
1t loosens and takes out every particle
of dust, dirt and dandruff.-Adv.

Women! It's Cheap!
Use Lemon Juice
and Make Lotion

To keep your skin and complexion
naturally soft, white and clear at all
times you simply must use a lotion or
cream every day. But choose the one
that is best and costs the least.
The juice of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing three
ounces of orchard white makes a
whole quarter pint of the most re-
markable beauty lotion at about the
cost one must pay for small jar of
the ordinary cold creams. Care should
be taken to strain the lemon juice
thru a fine cloth so no lemon pulp
gets in, then this lotion will keep
fresh for months. Every woman
knows that lemon juice is used to
bleach and remove such blemishes
as freckles, sallowness and tan and is
the ideal skin softener, smoothener
and beautifier.
Just try this lotion! Make up a
quarter pint of this sweetly frag-
rant cream and massage it into the
face, neck. arms and hands. 1t
should naturally help to whiten, soften,
freshen and bring out the hidden
roses and beauty of any skin.
Your druggist will sell three ounces
of orchard white at little cost, and
any grocer will supply the lemons

"a simple and harmless solution made by
dissolving an ounce of pure powdered sax
olite in half pint of witch hazel. These
ingredients of course can be had at any

COTTON CASE GOES UP
Southern Growers Take Allen Argu-
ment to Attorney General.

Southern Growers Take Allen Argu-
ment to Attorney General.
Southern cotton growers have sub
mitted their case to the attorney gem
eral of the United States. They have
asked the federal official to investigate
government statutes and determine
whether the cotton producers of the
southern states are violating the law
in their move to regulate cotton acre
age.
That is the answer which the cotton
growers have made t. Governor AL
lens latest attack. They will not con-
tinue in joint debate. but will follow
the Kansas governors suggestion and
submit their case to the government.
In order that no one may PASS the
buck" however, a telegram has been
sent to Governor Allen by J. S. Wan
namaker, chairman of the South Caro-
lima Cotton association. asking that
the governor submit his case to the
federal official. If Governor Allen has
records in his possession o. knows of
provisions of the federal statutes
which the southern growers are vio-
| lating, he is urged to send this in
formation to Washington by wire.
If the law is violated by the cotton
| growers association, Wannamaker de-
| clares that he wants the attorney gen.
eral of the United States to decide the
status of the case. He doesn't want
conditions disturbed by the Kansas
governor who has sent several lengthy
| kilograms outlining his charges That
there may be no uncertainty about the
matter, however, Governor Allen is
asked to send to the attorney general
a statement as to the particular sec
tions of the law which have been vio-
| lated or are about to be violated by
the cotton producers In this manner
| the case may not end merely in long
| drawn out debate. Governor Allen or
the cotton men will be INDICATED, and
Governor Allen is urged in a telegram
from the cotton men to make the next
move.
