WOULD WALK THE
FLOOR FOR HOURS
Williams Was Nervous From 20 Years
TrOuble--Nants World TO Know
About Tanlac


"Of all the medicines | have taken
during the last twenty years, Tanlac
is the only one that | have yet found
that will do all they say it will do"
said David Williams, who is employed
as saw filler in one of the large mills
in Seattle and lives at 2114 East Col
umbus street, Seattle, the other day.
"When | commenced taking Tanlac
he continued, "it had been at least
twenty years since | had been able to
eat anything without suffering terri
bly, afterwards. | was very careful
about what ate, but my stomach fl
nally got in such bad condition that
the very lightest kind of food would
sour and cause me to be bloated up
with gas for hours at time. l would
often have cramping spells after eat
ing. / also suffered great deal with
rheumatism in my hands, and some
times my fingers would be so cramped
and drawn that | would have to stop
work and rub them for a good while
before could hold my file well enough
to go back to work. More than half
the time | was not able to sleep on ac-
count of the pains in my hands and
stomach, and would often have to walk
the floor all night long. l finally got
so rundown and worn out that | was
hardly able to do any work at all.
THAT was the condition | was in
when | began taking Tanlac, but l
want to say right here, that by the
time | had finished my first bottle of
this medicine, everything was very
different with me. Why, Tanlac has SO
completely overcome my troubles that
can truthfully say that | am as well
and hearty now as | ever was in my
life. l have good appetite, and ]
can eat and digest anything anybody
else can. In fact, my stomach seems
to be in first class condition. | don't
have to stop my work and rub my
fingers now, for the rheumatism has
left me altogether work hard every
day, and when | go to bed now | have
no trouble getting eight or nine hours
good, sound sleep every night. / can
hardly realize the fact that | am a
well, strong man again, after all these
years of suffering, and am so happy
over it all that l just want to talk
about Tanlac all the time. l am glad
to have the chance to publish my ex
perience with Tanlac, for | just feel
like | want the whole world to know
what a wonderful medicine it is

Another of the excellent Triangle
features will be shown at the Topic
theater tonight, when the bright lit
tie comedy star, Hazel DAILY, featured
with Sydney Ainsworth, appears in
"The Little Rowdy.'
This picture is based on a story by
Harry Beaumont. who also directed
the picture, and portrays the daring
exploits of little hoyden, the daugh-
ter of millionaire, who is expelled
from school after she has disgraced
herself in the eyes of one Miss El-
liott.
Brimful of life and vitality, she COM
pletely wins over her parents, who

CROP CONDITIONS
ARE EXCELLENT

General crop and tbusinsss>~c6Hdi-
tions are more favotsbl<>at this time
to the Imperial valley cotton growers
than they have been at any time dur
the existence of the local industry.
The total American crop for the
current year is now estimated at 10,-
617,0O0 bales, approximately one mil
lion bales less than last year. Altho
the carry over from previous years is
fairly large it is unlikely that any fa-
vorable change in weather conditions
in the south will produce crop in eX
cess of consumptive demands.
The carry over from previous light
crops was due to the suspension of
European spindles, and with the grad
ual resumption Of activities a very
large export demand is already as
sured. The prosperity of the auto
mobile business with consequent en-
larged demand for tires into the man
facturers report makes it impossible
to fill their orders; and reports from
retailers in dry goods showing busi-
ness increase of from 80 to rs per cent
over a year ago are all factors which
will contribute to make prosperity for
the Imperial valley cotton grower.
