He Feels Twenty
Years Younger
1T Was A Lucky Day For Me
When | Began Taking Taniac,"
Says B. n. Cresher.

at certainly was lucky day for
me when began taking Tanlac, for
it has entirely relieved me of trou-
bles that had followed me for thirty
years." said B. II. Chesher, 17O8
Indiana avenue, Louisville, Ky.
"For all these years / had suffer-
ed from stomach trouble and indi-
gestion. My appetite had never
been very good, it was seldom, if ev-
er, I could find anything to eat that
did not hurt me, and there were
some things, such as pork or any
kind of vegetables, / could not eat
at all. After every meal my food
would lie undigested and feel as
heavy as a rock in my stomach.
gradually grew worse until when l
started taking Tanlac 7 was in a
run down, weakened condition.
at hardly seems possible that
medicine can so quickly relieve a
person of troubles of such long
standing like Tanlac has me. Why,
while l have only taken two bottles,
I have a splendid appetite and can
eat just anything I want, pork, veg
etables, or anything else, without
ever having sign Of Indigestion.
Not only this, but | have gained
several pounds in weight, and am so
much stronger / feel almost like a
different person. In fact, am in
good health every way, and feel at
least twenty years younger. Tanlac
is all right,and after what it has
done for me, l gladly recommend it
whenever l have an opportunity"
Tanlac is sold in Mt. Sterling, by
Land & Priest.

MILLIONS FOR PR0FITEERs;
NOT A CENT FOR SOLDIERS"

Nothing has ever proven so thor
oily that we are dealing with poll
ticians as the talk against the ad-
ditional pay for soldiers.
A lot of politicians are saying
that the proposed law commercial
ize patriotism"
What are facts7
The leaders in Washington, Re-
publican as well as Democratic, de-
cided that we would have "Selective
Service"
This was defended on the ground
that every citizen sought to serve
where he could best serve"
If his place was in a shipyard,
well and good.
If he could best serve in the coal
fields, that was his place.
And if he could best serve
abroad, he must serve abroad.
That was fair, provided every one
was paid on the same basis.
We are asked by President Will
son, Secretary Baker and the Re-
publican leaders to give as much
nradit to the ShinNard workar and

the munition worker and the dock
worker as we do to the soldier, be-
cause-"Each served in the place
selected for him"
The soldier abroad ran the risk of
being MANNED for life, or killed, and
we paid him a nominal wage. The
selected woker at home ran no un-
usual risks and we paid him high
wages.
And it is to be noted that some of
the men who say it is an insult to
the soldiers patriotism to offer to
pay him fair wage are extremely

The Frankfort Journal, in a news
