 Thirty Pounds

The results have gotten from Tanlac are so wonderful that feel compelled to tell everybody about it," said Mrs. John Poe, col Third street, Pekin, H., and my recovery, after fifteen years suffering, has made me the happiest woman in Illinois.
 Why, everything ate caused me agony Gas pressed up around my heart so I would faint, and when I recovered consciousness I would be limp as rag. Lots of times my neighbors came in, thinking I was going to die I also suf- fered with rheumatism so bad I would have to sit for days at time with my feet on pillow in a chair, and my el- bows were so stiff and painful I could hardly use my arms. I could hardly sleep at all, and have stayed awake many a night from pain.
 My husband urged me to try Tanlac and the way it restored my health was the gladdest surprise that I ever had. Why, I have gained thirty pounds since l began taking it, my troubles have dis appeared completely and I feel as spIen- did Jas when I was a girl. I just feel likeI owe my life to Tanlac, and only wish had known of it long ago."

LUMBER MARKET
 REPORTED QUIET.
"The American Lumberman" of Chicago, Gives Resume
 of the Wekk

It has been quiet week in the general ican Lumberman,'' Chicago, high au thority.
 Many dealers anticipated their wants before the increased freight rates went into effect and are out Of the market
 The magazine says:
 Business this week, on the whole. is quiet. Broadly speaking, buyers antici- pated their immediate requirements be- fore the increase in freight rates and are now sitting tight awaiting developments Manufacturers have generally added the increase in freight to the selling price and this gives a seeming strength to the market which it actually does not pos sess. That is the size of the demand is not sufficient to account for any mate rial increases in price.
 "Production of hardwoods has now reached the point where it equals and possibly temporarily exceeds the demand. The same situation is true regarding Douglas fir and southern pine.
 "Hemlock manufacturers of the north ern states where the demand for lumber i, slack, are diverting hemlock logs to the pulp mills, and it is probable that the production of this wood will be cur tailed for that reason. This should be good news to the newspapers.
 "The railroads continue to be the most active purchasers of lumber and timbesr most of the purchasing being on behalf of the maintenance of way departments An increase in the amount of lumber bought for new freight cars is also noted
 "The building situation remains much the same although reports mediate that building labor is becoming more plenti- full and that greater willingness IS shown to do good days work
 ''The car shortage continues to restrict the volume of shipment and it is logical to conclude that the present volume Of business is about as large as could be handled in view of this shortage"
