The interior throughout is finish,

large force Of employees wear white
uniforms, which they are required
to change daily. The me-
on the first floor are all finished in
Carara marble and mahogany.
The entire process Of manufacture
is conducted under absolutely sani-

made expressly to contain Tanlac
are washed and sterilized electrically
by the ultra violet ray process. They
are then filled by automatic machin-
cry and the finished product is there

When Tanlac was introduced into
Canada history repeated itself, and
the demand which had been created
in the United States was quickly du-
plicated in the Dominion provinces.
AS a result, it was recently found
necessary to establish another Tan
lac Laboratory at Windsor, Canada,
which is on a somewhate smaller
scale than the plant at Dayton, but
is no less modernly equipped.
These new factories give daily
of $4,000 bottles, but as
Tanlac is rapidly being introduced

Uniform quality is guaranteed by
series of careful inspections by ex-
pert chemists from the time the
cots, herbs and banks are received

MOTOR CAR EXPRESS

The motor car express that is be-
ing discussed, and which is intended
to cover the territory in all directions
from this city for a distance Of 50
to 100 miles, would be a great bene-
fit to the country traversed as well
as to the city. The railroads cannot
handle the traffic profitably without
apparently making extortionate
charges on short hauls, and if the
railroads hauled the freight for moth
ing the expense to the people would
still be great. 1t costs as much for
switching to make up a train for a
short haul as for long one. 1t
costs as much to load cars and to
unload them. The producer who has
cotton or seed, corn or garden truck
to ship must load it on wagons and
haul it to the depot, where it must
De unloaded until cars can be pro-
vided to haul it. This costs time and
money. The expense to the railroad,
whether it hauls rs miles or 100, is
practically the same, because The
overhead expenses are what count.
The motor car carrying four or five
tons can load on the farm or planta-
ton and come to Memphis, going d.
rect to the platfo'n
the work is done in one motion ana
there is no drayage and expensive
handling. All this is saved.
The Memphis merchant can ship
his goods to his customer direct and
deliver the goods at his home in
stead Of at the railroad depot. The
people along, the various routes are
brought in daily touch with the Mem
phis markets and can send in their
butter, eggs, chickens and vegetable
products, making direct delivery to |
the purchaser. The convenience of
the system will be great benefit.
The country people will enjoy all the
advantages Of living in town and the
townspeople will enjoy the advan-
tages of living in the country. Coun-
try merchants need not carry large
stocks Of goods, because they can
quickly obtain what they need as
they need it and purchase only what
they have an Immediate market fol-.
In this way stocks will always be
fresh and up-to-date. The farmer
who has a couple of hogs or sheep
for sale need not spend day haul
ing them to the depot. He can ship
direct to the slaughter house or
butcher and receive his money The
next day.
N densely populated sections OF
the north this work is done by elec
trio interurban lines. Down this
way, where population is relatively
sparse and the roads good, the motor
truck will be better and more econ
omical. It viii unite the country
and the city and enable the one to
serve the other. In time conveniences
can be provided, for carrying passen-
gers as we'll as freight and people
will be brought closer together. The
traffic will be so great that the pro-
ject will be a profitable one from
The outset.-Memphis News Scimitar.

new TANLAC PLANT
IS NOW COMPLETED
Magnificent New Laboratory Has
Daily Capacity Of $4,000
Bottles.

What is said to be one Of the larg.
est pharmaceutical laboratories in
the United States has been completed
at Dayton, Ohio, for the manufacture
Of Tanlac, the well known medicine
which according to recent reports is
now having the largest sale of any
medicine of its kind in the world.
The erection Of the new plant
was made necessary by the rapid
growth Of the business, as the older
plant was found to be wholly made
quate to supply the ever-increasing
demand which at the present rate Of
sale will amount to more than five
million bottles for the present year
alone.
By the erection of this plant the
manufacturers of Tanlac are giving
to the world just one more evidence
of the remarkable growth and ex
pansion of their business, and of
their absolute confidence in it's fu-
ture.
This announcement will be read
with interest not only by the many
thousands of Tanlac agents scattered
throughout every state of the Union
and throughout Canada, but to the
millions who have used it beneficilaly
as well.
The new building occupies 60,OO0I
square feet of floor space. It is six
stories in height, practically fireproof
throughout, and is Of striking archi-
tectural design. It also has private
railway facilities.
This beautiful new structure now
stands in striking contrast beside |
the older building where Tanlac was
first made.
Visitors to the laboratories are
strongly impressed with the extreme
~ modern character of the equip
ment. Everything is provided and
splendidly arranged to promote sys-
tematic and rapid production. The
very latest machinery and devices

CHEAPEST WAY TO KILL WEEDS

If you want to know what farm
ers in community are least troubled
with weeds, find out those who keep
a flock Of sheep, for they are GER
tain to have the cleanest farms. AS
weed killers, sheep have absolutely
no equal. Not only do they kill
weeds without cost, but they turn
them into source Of profit. The
best way to fight weeds of almost
any kind is to get the land in such
good condition for grass that the
grass will crowd the weeds out and
then to keep a few sheep to pick out
what weeds get through the grass

THE CHRISTMAS MESSAGE

And We, beneath life's crushing load,
Whose forms are bending low,
Who toll along the climbing way,
With painful steps and slow,
Look now; for glad and golden
+" hours
Come swiftly on the wing;
10, rest beside the weary road,
And hear the angels sing.
These lines, familiar to many, ex-
press the thought of the Christmas
season. Here we are struggling a.
long in a world of toll and strife and
lsordid desire. We are absorbed by
the petty ends Of daily life. So
much money must be made in a GER
tain time, we must all hold on to
every little article of our own rights,
without much regard for the rights
of others. We jostle and batter and
crowd down each other as we grasp
and gain and get. Passion and AFRO
Fgance go so far that Ia, 900, 900 men
lhave just had to- die, and half the
property of the world has had to be
sacrifced, to defend even the simp-
lest and most basic conceptions of
Ijustice.
Yet over all this scene of dark
and selfish turmoil, the clean stars
of God i shining. Their messages
of love and mercy and peace on earth
is. brought to mar through the sa-
cred Advent of Jesus.
Something deep in the heart of
man has always answered to this
'lcall. He has responded to- it with
hoy and confidence. Every Christ
mas has brought forth it's singing
of carols which are the poets and
minstrel's prophecy of a new and
better. day when life's turmoil shall
cease in the city of brotherly love.
/ 1t has brought forth the lavish
} offering of gifts, much Of it foolish
and mercenary, yet all prophetic OF
. the time when men snail be more an
. xious to give than to receive.
7 Let us then throw ourselves at
, Ethis season into the joyous spirit OF
the carol singers and the gift max.
ers, and do our share to help mar
/ arise from these lower levels Of sor.
, did life, into the world on it's climb.
ing path upward to the skies.

FINANCING THE sPECsULAToRs

providing a standard exchange where
people wishing to sell securities can
get a fair price for Them Were it
not for Wall street and other mar
kets. people who needed to realize
on their stocks and bonds would
have to sacrifice.
Most people will also agree that
speculation is carried too far. Too
much money is tied up in it. The

People who wish to use their own
money to- speeulate-with,~w will provide
a sufficient market so that people de-
string to liquidate their securities
can do so. But when many millions
are tied up in mere gambling games,
the farms and factories can't get the
accommodations they need to do bus
mess on. The time has come when
the real industries should have the
first call of the nations savings.
