MRS. BROWN A WELL
WOMAN ONCE MORE
Was Confined to Her Bed and Chair
for Over Two Years Before
Taking Tanlac.

"Some strange things happen in
this world, and the change Tanlac
has brought about in my wife's cor
tion is one of them," said J. L.
wn, a resident of College Park,
Ga.
"FOr over two years." he continued,
my wife had so much trouble with
her stomach that she could hardly
take any nourishment at all but a
milk diet, and she fell off till she
was little more than living skeleton.
She got little rest or sleep at night,
had no energy at all and was so weak
and rundown that most of her time
was spent in bed or in her chair. Her
skin was sallow and unhealthy look
ing and she didn't seem to take any
interest in anything.
'ln fact, she was about as bad off
as she could be to be alive when she
started taking Tanlac, and just few
bottles of this wonderful medicine
have made her we'll woman once
more She now eats anything she
wants, sleeps like child has gained
twenty pounds and is able to do all
her homework as well as she ever
did"

ing.

Doctors say that the old-style cal
omel was the best medicine in the
world and the only thing that would
straighten out disordered liver, but
it had some serious drawbacks. The
salivating and the sickening after-ef-
fects made many people dread to take
it. The new calomel called Calotabs,
has all the liver benefits left in and
the sting taken out. Now you can
take calomel without the slightest
objection. One Calotab on the tongue
at bedtime with swallow of water
that's all. No taste, no danger, ne
gripping, no nausea, no salts. Next
morniAT your liver is clean, your sys-
tenn purified and you are feeling
like a two-year- old-with hearty
appetite for breakfast. Eat what
you please-no danger.
Calotabs are so delightful that your
druggist will refund the price if you
are not delighted with them. Sold
only in original, sealed packages,I
price 30 cents. All druggists now
have Calotabs. ad;v,.

he paid $40 Then he had to invest

Iewelrx Reveals History.

Increasing demand for all-American
jewelry. designed from ancient models
fashioned by the Aztecs and Toltecs Of
Mexico, has brought to light striking
similarity between them and those of
the contemporaneous Roman empire.
The characteristic features of Ro-
man jewelry were its broad surfaces,
massive construction, use of large
stones and open-work ornament. The
same features are equally trIe of the
aboriginal American jewelry, and of
that of the restoration now in vogue.
Betokening strength and luxury,
they both differed radically from the
jewelry of the Greeks and Etruscans,
especially in that the latter was chief
ly distinguished by its delicate beauty
and minutely cunning workmanship.
Comparatively, it is the difference be-
tween the imposing canvas and the
miniature. Montezuma and the Aztec
nobles-and their Toltec predecessors
wore this magnificent, eolorful jew
elry, and so did the emperors and no.
bles of Rome. while both great EN-
