BANGOR. WOMAN
Never Expected To Get
Out of Bed
Mrs. Wettsn Says She Had to Give
Up Entirely Before She Got TanIae,
But Is Now Well and Happy :

II firmly believe I owe my life to
Tanlac, and there is nothing too
strong for me to say in praise OF it"
said Mrs. Margaret Wotten, Of 10
Market street, Bangor, Me.
Il was in a badly run down con-,
dition for more than ten years. My
digestion was very poor. and after
every meal I had feeling like lead
in the pit Of my stomach and became
almost deathly sick. had the sharp
est kind of rheumatic pains IN my
feet, limbs and shoulders and was so
nervous and restless couldn't be still
for any length Of time. had such
spells Of dizziness I could barely
walk across the room. and II these at
tacks came On me In the street !
could hardly stand up. Any unusual
noise would excite me and then !
would have one Of those awful dizzy
spells. Many a night got out Of bed
and sat up, just because couldn't
get to sleop. This went on until last
spring, when I got 50 weak and nerv-
Gus and felt 30 miserable Just had
to take to my bed and thought !
would never get up again.
II read a number Of testimonials
from others who had been relieved OF
troubles similar to nine and l de-
cided to try Tanlac. I am certainly
glad did, for the medicine has made
me feel like an entirely different per-
son. have fine appetite and can
eat just anything want and mover
suffer from naraea br INV kind Of
distress after meals. l have been
completely relieved Of my rheuma-
tism and am no longer nervous or
subject to spells of disziness. ! don't
believe would ever have gotten we'll
without Tanlac, and I never intend to
be without It."

Der of positions to be filled offers a
temptation to place in the vacancies
high school graduates. without train
ing. but who are regarded as good
raw material. 1t is inevitable that
some positions must, under present
conditions. be filled in this way.
1.-THE epdeavor. however. should be
made with constantly increasing force
to reduc1the number Of UNFRAMED
teachers. Even il it be necessary to
employ temporarily some high. school
graduates of less promise in order
that others may attend normal
school, the sacrifice of efficiency for
the time is worth while for the sake
Of the future. The same applies to
the closing Of small schools when
such an arrangement can be carried
out without undue hardship.
THE whole matter simply resolves
itself into a case of necessity for a
rather drastic course in order that
such condition as now, seems to
exist may not again be in evidence.
Leaving out Of consideration entirely
the great desirability Of having
trained teachers in the schools, the
matter Of the teacher supply alone
should strongly~urge the use of every
means to increase normal school en-
rollment.

teaching life Of the unframed teacher
is comparatively short. She may
remain in the work. longer than 9TH

greater the number Of unframed
teachers in the schools, the greater

DR.. Augustus o. Thomas. State
superintendent of public schools, de-
cIared Monday that more interest is
being shown in the opportunities for
professional training on the part OF
teachers this year than for long
time and the drive for increasing the
attendance in the State Normal
schools is showing results.
1T Is certain that all schools will
have an increased enrolment for the
coming year." said DR.. Thomas.
Whether or not they will be filled to
capacity depends in part upon the
