HEALTH AFTER ATTACK

Il have never seen anything more
wonderful than what Tanlac has done
for my little granddaughter and my
self" said Mrs. p. e. Baker of 1924
Randolph avenue, st. Paul, Mimi, In a
statement recently.
81 had such a severe attack of the
influenza | was confined to my bed for
three weeks, and after / got up | was
so weak that when / walked around
the house a little I became so exhaust
ed / would almost fall over l had
lost nineteen pounds and was a mere
shadow of my former self. My ner-
YES were so badly shattered the least
unusual noise would nearly run me
distracted, and my stomach was In
such wretched condition that after
eating | always felt stuffy and nause-
ateda | had awful cramps In my stom
ach and frightful pains around my
heart and across my chest.
$50 many of my friends had told
me of the wonderful results they had
gotten from Tanlac that l began a X
ing it myself, and / started to improve
and gain in weight right away, l have
taken six bottles now and have gotten
hack eighteen Of the nineteen pounds
/ lost and | am in absolutely perfect
health. Everything l eat agrees with
me and I am never troubled after
wards in any way whatever. My ner-
YES are just as steady as can be and
1 am sleeping soundly and can attend
10 my homework now.
Shortly after / contracted the in
huenza my little seven-year-old grand
daughter was taken down with it, and
as she had always been frail it went
SO hard with her that at n time we
gave up hope for her recovery. This
attack of influenza left her in a weak
ened condition, she wouldn't eat any
thing and l felt Uneasy about her all
the time. AS | had been taking Tanlac
and getting such fine results l knew
il would do no harm to let her try 1T,
And to the surprise Of us all it has
proved ever more remarkable in her
case than in my own. Today after
taking three bottles she is the very
picture of perfect health and is as
strong and happy as any child lever
saw in my life. We are deeply CRATE
full to Tanlac and will never be with

KRAMER SEES HOPE
IN CHICAGO RAIDS
Believes They Indicate Co.
operation of Police With U. S.
Dry Authorities.

Discussing the Chicago raids, Pro-
hibition Commissioner John +. Kra-
mer today said
From press dispatches from Chi
cago, learn that Charles c. FitZ-
morris, the new chief Of police of
that city. has announced campaign
10 rid Chicago OF its criminals, and,
along the line Of this campaign, there
were a thousand arrests made in Chi
cago raids Saturday night and Sun
day. / noted, with much pleasure,
that among those arrested were n
number OF bootleggers. | am very
hopeful that this indicates that we
shall have the hearty cooperation OF
the police force in Kidding the city OF
Chicago Of persons who are selling
intoxicating liquors in violation OF
the national prohibition act
"Pri0r to Chief Fitzmorris' APP
pointment, Major A V. Dalrymple,
who was our supervising Federal
prohibition agent for the central de-
partment until November l. 1920. in
making his report covering his opera
tions IN Illinois from January II,
1920, to September 30, 1920, said he
had presented to the United States
attorneys for prosecution l,12o viola
tons: the number of convictions was
30: September 80 the number of cases
pending was 1865: he had made 1,65O
seizures of property and had seized
30,019 gallons of liquor; and, during
this period he also seized Ga automo-
biles. In making this report. Major
Dalrymple stated that his nrganiZa-
ton had not received the cooperation
OF the police department of the cities
OF the State. as he would have liked
to have had it; that this was notice
ably true of the police department
OF Chicago.
I'm view of Major Dalrymple's re-
port and in view of the announced
policy of the new chief of police OF
Chicago. l am very hopeful that the
police force of the city will assume
part of the burdens incident TO
clearing the city of Chicago of those
who are violating the national prohi-
bition act: for my part, ] can assure
