HE FEELS LIKE A
NEW MADE MAN.
Was In Misery Every Minute of Day
and Night Before Taking
Tanlac

avenue, Huntington, West Virginia.
bill clerk for the Huntington Lum-
Der Supply Company, is still another
who has cause to be glad he was in
duced to give Tanlac, the Master
Medicine" an honest trial
Talking about things that help
people," said Mr.. Carpenter recent.
ly, "Tanlac has done me more good
than anything else l ever got hold
of. Before l took it l had been in
the worst kind of fix for more than
Ia year, but now I am just like a
rev made man.
Il had gotten in such bad shape
on account of stomach trouble, loss
of appetite and poor digestion that
1 was constantly losing time from
my work. My wife would fix up all
kinds of good things trying to tempt
my appetite, but after eating a
mouthful or two my stomach would
rebel and 1 simply had to leave the
table without eating any more
What little l did manage to force
down would sour, causing gas and
such violent pains in my stomach
that 1 could hardly stand it, Some
times l suffered so much agony that
L just felt like I could not live an
other hour. My tongue was coated
all the time, l had raging head
aches and suffered so that every
thing seemed blurred to me, and
while these spells were on me, ana
they usually lasted for several min
utes, / couldn't see. When not in
pain l felt sluggish and drOwsy and
wanted to sleep, but my sleep was
unnatural and did not seem to rest
me.
Il was under treatment several
times, but no one seemed to under
stand my case and I kept getting
worse until there was hardly a
minute night or day but what i was
in misery. 1 read a statement in
the paper describing case like
mine that Tanlac had relieved, but
as I had always been prejudiced
aginst all advertised medicines,
I passed it Up, believing
that it would not help me.
But one day l was talking with a
friend who had taken Tanlac with
fine results, and he told me if l
tried it and it did not help me he
would refund my money out of his
own pocket. Well I bought a bot
lie and sure enough just as he told
me, 1 had not finished taking it be-
fore there was a marked improve
ment in my condition. Then 1 got
another bottle and now my stomach
trouble is gone entirely. The
headaches have also left me and my
sleep is natural, sount aud restful.
l am working regularly every day
now and feel just fine, but, hon
estly, l don't believe l would have
gotten will if 1 had not taken Tan
lac 1 just want to give all the
praise, thanks and gratitude / can
find words to express to Tanlac and
my friend who persuaded me to try
it. and from now on L will never
doubt anything good l read about
Tanlac."

SAYS NO CAMPAIGN AGAINST
TOBACCO.

Members of the Tobacco Mer-

Safes in convention at Washington,
were assured by President Charles J,
Eisenlohr, Philadelphia, that to-
bacco and liquor would not be buri-
ed in the same grave. He said there
was not the slightest basis for fear
that use of tobacco would be pro-
hibited.
Tobacco does not excite or intox-
icate, but it soothes and pacifies, ~
Mr.. Eisenlohr said. "It promises
sober deliberation and moral con-
tentment. 1t does not lure men
from the fireside, but cements fam

gathered by Proves Marshal General
Crowder's department during the war
is to be found claim for exemption
from the draft by the champion Ne
gro crapshooter" South Carolina
and perhaps of the world. And it
was because of this particular Ne
gro's ability to "roll the worries" that
his exemption from army service was
demanded.
A. L. McCawley, attorney, of
Kansas City, who was one of the IL
national inspectors who worked out
of General Crowder's office, tells the
Kansas City Post of the claim.
1t was not the Negro who desired
exception on the grounds that he was
IAN expert crapshooter", but his en-
ployer, big lumber company which
was working on government con-
tracts. The president of the lumber
company, the general manager and
other officials filed affidavits to the
effect that the expert crapshooter"
was necessary to the conduct of the
company's business of filling govern
ment contracs.
| sit appeared" said McCawley,
''that the company employed Negro
labor almost exclusively. The affi-
davits set forth that without the 'ex-
pert crapshooter' the company could
not mailman its force of Negro la
borers and loggers.
sThe theory of the contention
was that if this crapshooter on each
pay day did not win all the wages of
the other Negro employees they would
quit work to spend their wages.
1T was duly set forth that once
the crapshooter was arrested and put
to work on the country road gang
and that during his absence from
the lumber camp the Negro laborers
had money and began leaving their
work until the efficiency of he or
ganization was cut to so per cent.
"Officials of the company, hearing
of another touted crapshooter in the
neighborhod, employed him, staked
him to roll and instructed him to
clean up. Instead, the new crap
shooter lost his stakes and was fired
by he company. The company Off
Gals then went to the county au-
thorities, paid their expert crap
shooters fine and gave him his job
back. With hist return and his abil-
ity with the bones, the camp soon
had its full quota Of Negro laborers
back at work-all of them broke.
THE district board reluctantly dis
allowed the claim for exemption, and
it came up to General Corwder's Of
flee for final disposition. Naturally
it was disallowed by the provost
marshal's office, but it was scheduled
as the queerest of all exemption
claims which came to Washington for
action"
