find a place for them through the

Miss Cantrill Declares Tanlac
Is Best Medicine She
Ever Heard OF.
ADVERTISEMENT

Il am simply delighted over
my wonderful improvement
since ! began taking Tanlac,"
was the enthusiastic statement
made by Miss Louise Cantril,
popular music teacher of 8405
Elm street, Los Angeles, Cal.
"For as long as ! can remem-
Der my kidneys troubled me and
/ rarely ever got a good nights
rest" she continued. Il lost
my appetite completely and
what / managed to swallow by
sheer force of will would fer
ment and cause 50 much gas
that my heart would palpitate
terribly and at times l came
near fainting. I fell off from
one hundred and twenty pounds
to ninety-eight and was so nerv-
GUS and weak I had to give up
my work.
Medicines and treatments
did not do me a bit of good and
| lost faith in them. A friend
of mine kept insisting that / try
Tanlac and to please her I did.
Now | can't thank her enough,
for the way Tanlac helped me is
nothing shorto remarkable. My
appetite came right back and I
eat anything / want without the
slightest trouble. My kidneys
seem to be in perfect shape and
| sleep all night long like a
child. l have gained so much
in weight and strength and am
so happy I don't hesitate to say
Tanlac is the best medicine 1
ever heard f."

The Farm Journal, of Phila-

Der of prizes for big yields in
corn, cotton, etc. It remained
for a Sampson county farmer,
William Peterson, to capture the
$3.50 cash prize for the third
largest yield of lint cotton in the
United States for 1919. His
yield was 1040.87 pounds per
acre. The average yield in this
State is 248 pounds, so it is seen
that the Sampson county winner
made over four times as much.
