Testimony tending to show that
irregular methods had been employ
ed by stock statesmen of the Assoc

Of it's stock, was given at the hearing
for recognizing the packing com
pany before District Judge E. M. Nc
Call today.
Frank Glassman, farmer residing
near Gravity, Iowa, was called to the

tilted that two stock statesmen for the
packing company had come to him
while he was bedfast and advised
him that the packing plant would be
in operation April I, 1920, and also
that his banker, l.. G. Woodfell, had
recommended the proposition.
On the strength of these assertions,
Glassman said he purchased ~
worth Of stock the first time. Later

KENYON REFUSES
. TO Sell OUT NOW.
Iowa Man Says He Wouldn't Part
With the Health Tanlao Brought
Him For Any Amount.

I wouldn't take all the money in
the world for what Tanlac has done
for me, and I'm sure that everybody
who knows the value Of good health
will agree with me"' was the emf
phatic statement made by Harry M.
Kenyon of S42 Fourth Avenue East,
Cedar Rapids, Iowa, we'll known as
slstant engineer at the Sinclair Pack
ing Co.
II suffered terribly from severe
case OF stomach trouble for the past
three years, and could get abso-
lutely no relief until / finally began
taking Tanlac. My appetite was
mighty poor, and the little did eat
caused me so much suffering that
was almost afraid to eat anything at
all. Quite often l became so nause-
ated l could scarcely retain bit of
food on my stomach, and the gas
that formed pressed against my
heart, greatly affecting my breathing.
II had awful headaches, and also
became terribly dizzy, especially
when l would climb the twelve-foot
ladder down at the plant to regulate
the water feed to the boilers. SUI
fered from sharp, shooting pains
across my back, which were so bad
could hardly straighten UP, and
many times it hurt SO I just had to
drop. my wrench or anything else
had in my hands. The muscles in
my legs became stiff, my feet and
ankles swelled up to twice their nor
NAL size, and 1t looked like I was
going to have to hunt different work.
We'll, / realized I couldn't hold up
much longer under my awful suffer
ing, and when l saw Tanlac so high
ly recommended I began taking it.,
and l want to say right here that it
has simply given me the surprise Of
my life. Why. since taking four bot
ties of the medicine, my appetite is
SO good that I eat three big, hearty
meals every day, and my stomach is
in such fine condition that I'm never
worried with indigestion, gas or
shortness of breath. Il no longer
suffer from headaches, and I can
just run up and down that twelve
foot ladder without feeling sign of
dizziness My back doesn't hurt me
any more, my back and feet are en-
tirely free from pain and swelling,
and 1 can carry big heavy pipes, and
just work in any position with a
wrench. My present good health is
due entirely to Tanlac, and you may
know by that just how strong / am
for it."

NEW YORK, Sept. 2O.-The New
York Sun financial review says:
The market enjoyed intervals Of
pronounced strength in which trad
ing was quite animated. The session
as whole lacked consistency, how
ever, and price movements were
highly irregular. If, as conjectured
by many, there has been built up a
heavy short interest in recent weeks,
and that a substantial part of that
interest is still outstanding, the
shorts cannot be in a very happy
frame of mind Conditions for a
week past have not been propitious
for covering.

prices were spirited buying of oil
