mier Lloyd George told the House Of
Commons that the government was pre-.
pared to give every assistance to the
mother of Archbishop Mannix, Of Aus
tralia, who is in ireland to visit the
archbishop of England, but that the
government would not permit the arch
bishop to visit ireland.
This was in answer to a question

The archbishop denounced the pro-
posal as 'preposterous, adding that
his mother could not possibly travel,
owing to her great age, no matter what
assistance should be given her.

:HAD TO LAY OFF
 WEEKS AT TIME
Could Hardly Raise His Arms Tanlac Builds Him Up and
 Rheumatism Ends.

Rheumatism Ends.
 Il think Taniac Is the greatest medicine in the world and I have a good reason for thinking so, as have not only gained twelve pounds since 1 began taking 1t but am entirely over all my troubles" said w. E. Thomas
 1940 Third Street, San Diego, Cal, salesman for the Simpson Prime Granite Company.
 "One and a half years ago began to suffer with rheumatism, which has
 been with me ever since" he con. tinued. 'It was worse in my left leg and hip than anywhere else, and finally my left shoulder began to trouble with what every one said was neuritis. It became so stiff and sore it was impossible for me to raise my arm and I could not even put on my coat without assistance. I was also bothered with my kidneys a great deal. I lost so much weight and be- came so weak and run down I would have to lay off from work for weeks at time. My appetite was poor, nothing tasted good to me and what little I managed to force down did not seem to do me any good Be- tween my kidneys and the rheuma- usm and my arm l could get but lit tie sleep as I was in severe pain all the time, and always got up feeling tired and worn out.
 q had tried so many different treatments and medicines for my troubles without being benefited I had about lost faith in all medicines, but one day I reada testimonial from some one praising Tanlac, and as their condition was described as be- ing exactly like mine decided to try it. I had taken but a few doses when my kidney trouble was gone entirely, ana now, while l have taken only six bottles I am completely rid of the rheumatism and the stiffness and pains have all left my shoulders so 1 can use my arm as good as I ever. could without the least bit of trouble. I have a splendid appetite and enjoy every meal. can sleep as sound as a log all night long and al ways get up feeling greatly refreshed. have regained my strength and am so full of energy and feel so good all the time my work is a pleasure to me. My wife started taking a little of my Tanlac, and as. she was so greatly benefited by it she began talk ing 1t regularly and she would be pleased to give you testimonial also, as we both hope We will be the means of getting some one else started on the road to health by getting them to take Tanlac."
