MAY CHANGE ROUTE

Volga Tribune-Word has been re-
ceived in this city from officers of the
State Highway Commission, stating
that officers of the Federal Highway
Commission, who have made prelim-
mary survey of the Black and Yellow
Trail, have recommended to the federal
government and also the state officials
that the road as it approaches Volga
from the west be changed.
The Federal Highway Commission
wishes the road to come as far east
as the railroad crossing, about a mile
and quarter west of town. Instead Of
crossing the track at that place and
proceeding directly east the plan is
to purchase land for road along the
south side of the right-of-way until
the section line road a mile west of
town is reached. The trail would then
turn south as far as the quarter line,
thence east through town past the
Christian Reformed church, DR.. Scan
lan's residence, John G. Hammers
residence and east to the Jerry Algra
farm, then south one-half mile, thence
east to Brookings.
1t is understood that the Federal
Highway Commission wishes to do
away with every poss BILE grade cross.
ing, and by running the road accord
ing to the new plan, the crossing west
of town and the one at the depot would
be eliminated.
/ Tuesday Messrs. Lake and Eby
surveyors of the State Highway Com
mission were here and surveyed the
new road and VIII make their report
to the State Commission. so 1t looks
as though the change in routing wou!t
/ eventually be made.

 Pounds Taking Tanlac.

'No one could see the wonderful change in me and doubt that Tan lac is just wonderful medicine, Y" said Mrs. Louise Rogers, of 4017 Brooklyn Avenue, Los Angeles, California. Mrs. Rogers formerly lived at Wenatchee, Wash, where she is also well known.
 My health was so bad for years that I became almost physical and nervous wreck" she continued. l had nervous indigestion, disordered kidneys and other troubles. l was perfectly miserable and for over two years could not eat any bread, milk or meat, and had to live on the very lightest of foods. l sui fered so that sleep was impossible and I fell off to a mere shadow of my former self. I was under con stant treatment for eighteen months but kept getting worse instead Of better I nearly gave up all hope and my husband, too, thought l was going to die. He decided to send me to a health resort, but l was so low l had to be carried and have an attendant all the time.
 'It was then that a lady from Vancouver persuaded me to try Tanlac and it was just three days before I noticed a change for the better. l have now taken five bot ties, I have gained eighteen pounds and all of my old troubles are gone entirely. I eat three good meals every day and sleep like child all night long. I just want to tell eV- erybody what great medicine Tan lac is."
 Tanlac is sold by all leading drug gists.
