EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

It is probable that there will be an ex- ecutive commmittee in each county. which will be in close touch with the executive committee of the state body. H. this way quick statewide action of interest to all merchants is believed to be susceptible of attainment.
 Some of the organizers believe there should be managing director. an execu- tive secretary and field secretary.
 The one sure thing Is that the organE- CTS are in earnest about the bringing to- gether for their mutual protection the re- tail merchants of all Alabama.
 As one of them said: "We are not Or ganizing for the purpose of securing fla vors, and we want none; we are organiz- ing in order to secure justice and, in se- curing justice for ourselves, help secure justice for the masses of the people with whom we are in closer touch than any ether set of commercial and industrial in- terests."

AGE OF GA
GAINS 20 POUNDS
MRS. l.. E. SOUTTER FEELS LIKE
A DIFFERENT WOMAN SINCE
TANLAC BUILT HER UP

II have actually gained twenty
pounds and that certainly seems re-
markable for one of my age, as 1 am
now sixty-four," said Mrs. L.. E. Sout-
ter, residing at 1856 East 18th street,
Des Moines, Iowa, in relating her ex-
p~erience with Tanlac," she continued.
II had suffered so long and so Sc
verely," she continued, that | never
expected to get we'll. In fact, my case
had been given up as hopeless. Nine
years ago my stomach, liver and kid
neys, commenced ~bothering me and
since that time / have suffered almost
beyond endurance. Finally / got in
such a bad fix that / could hardly eat
anything and the pains in my stomach
and back were so intense that / could
not get any sleep or rest. No treat
ment or medicine helped me and life
had become a burden.
"At last / got Tanlac on the advice
of q friend and it has been a godsend
to me, for my troubles have been
overcome and / am feeling like an
entirely different person. Why, be-
fore / took Tanlac / was unable to
go n place, couldn't ever walk
across the street, but since taking this
medicine / have been on a visit to
South Dakota. l have just returned
home, and nearly all of today have
been down town shopping. / am eat
ing just anything | want and never
nave a pain or an uncomfortable feel
ing afterwards My liver and kidneys
never bother me any more, either,
and as l said, ] have actually gained
twenty pounds in weight. ! am feel
ing ust fine now, but il it had not
been for Tanlac / would still be a sick
woman. So l feel like / ought to
make a statement for the benefit of
others who are trying to find relief"
Here is another instance of the
wonderful reconstructive powers OF
Tanlac. Mrs. Soutter is only one of
many thousands who have taken il
with the same remarkable results.
Tanlac proved of great benefit to her
kbecause it contains certain medicinal
properties which enrich the blood and
promote a healthy appetite for nour-
ishing food. Tanlac has been very
!, successful in overcoming nervousness
s and sleeplessness, not from a quietine
effect on the nerves, for it has nc
I such effect, but by strengthening the
nerves and bringing back the normal
5 state of health through it's effect or
s the appetite and nutrition of the body
Tanlac is sold in Miller by Collin:
& Shaw Drug Store, and in St Law
I renee by the Eureka Phry Co.

The Y. w. C. A.

To concentrate the woman power
of the world and make it a factor in
the world may seem a beautiful dream
and yet this may be done 70 "a greater
or less extent in our several COM
munities. Every welfare organization
is making for the betterment of some
class Or community.
Often these movements fall short of
their objective because Of the lack of
trained leadership. This trained lead
ership is supplied by the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association, which
gladly co-operates with all existing
organizations. Does the appearance
of your community satisfy you? How
do your girls spend their spare time?
Are there any ~recreations, outdoor or
indoor, which the public encourages?
Is there vocational guidance? Is
the community using the Government
resources? Are there police women
and Travellers Aid? Are foreign born
women reached by Americanization
schools? Is there any child welfare
work being done? These things are
badly needed in a great many ommun
tiles Those are some of the questions
the Y. w. C. A. wants to help the COM
munity answer and answer right.

DREAMLAND ADVENTURES
"LUDITH. THE EAR DAMSEL"

test are that he should ride steed that
has mastered Farmer Strongarm. This
horse has not mastered the farmer, so
why should Crooked Nose ride him."
"True," roared Fierce Fangs. "We
don't have to ride him."
"Hoity- toity, no horse ever mastered
me, boasted Farmer Strongarm.
Billy brought Balky Sam forward.
he said, Farmer Strongarm looked at
Balky Sam and snorted. ''Hoity toity.
Is this a joke?' he asked.
Now Balky Sam before he became an
army mule had been a circus mule and
tricks. So when Farmer Strongarm
leaped for his back as he had leaped for
the back of Fire Eater, Balky Sam
lodged and the farmer fell fiat on the
ground. The farmer jumped up and
grabbed for Balky Sam, but whichever
way he turned he met Balky Sans
nimble heels.
Finally Balky Sam let him get on,
and then bumpity bump, bump, he
went bouncing about. Kickity kick, he
went over Balky Sans head Once more
Farmer Strongarm picked himself UP
and once more he jumped to Balky
Sans back, only to tumble off in a
hurry, when BalIy Sam started to roll
over on him. Still again he tried it, and
this time Balky Sam let him stay on a
minute while he raced around the yard.
Then Balky Sam planted all four feet
solid and stopped still. Like shot
Farmer Strongarm went over his head
and sprawled on the ground. Another
instant Balky Sam was sitting on top
of him.
"Hee haw. I've mastered him !"
brayed Balky Sam, and Farmer Strong
arm had to admit that this was true.
When Fierce Fangs tried to get on
Balky Sans back, he got such n bat
tering with Balky Sans heels that he
quickly quit in disgust.
Then Crooked Noses turn came.
Again Balky Sam reared and bucked
and kicked, but he was careful not to
throw Crooked Nose off and soon he
let the dwarf ride him as though he
were as tame as kitten.
''Hoity toity. you've won this test :"
grumbled Farmer Strongarm rubbing
his bruised sides. but there are three
others harder than this, and here is
the second" He handed Crooked Nose
another packet exactly like the first.

SCHOOL is eco YEARS OLD
Member Of John Brown Raidlng Party
Taught In Connecticut lnsti-
tuition.

The controversy over the location OF
the new school building FOR the Long
hin school district, has brought to
light some interesting history in com
nectlon with the building of the East
Long hin district, which win be aban-
ioncd as soon ass the now bullt ng g.
erected. Il Is probable that This pres
rnt building Is one of the oldest school
louses IN the state still IN use. Old
residents of the di irict claim that IL
dates bncl, nearly 100 years, and that
II is still used shows with what care
the building was erected. The build
ing is located on n hill and is built of
stone, rather unusual feature. IL Is
interesting to recall, in connection with
the school. that John Il. Cooke, one of
the members Of John Browns raidins
party, aud who was later hanged with
him. once taught in this school. He
was born In killingworth, and as u
young man came to Middletown TO
teach school. Later on, he went West
and became acquainted with the fa-
nous Hbcrator. Lyman NJ. Baldwin,
one Of The well-knOwn residents OF the
district, says he has frequently heard
his gra 1dfather speak Of attending the
old sto1e schoolhouse, and often relat-
ed prank which some of his boy com
panions played there one night. The
boys OF the neighborhood had been In
the habit Of gathering in the school
house nj night 10 play cards, their only
light being the embers OF the fire which
had been burning ON the hearth during
the day. One night some of the moth
ers Of the nelghborhood surprised the
boys by suddenly appearing. Rather
than get caught the boys all jumped
out of windows, and then one of them
locked the door on the mothers. The
result was that the boys were all home
in bed by the time the mothers had re-
turned.-Middletown Correspondence
