WILSON MAKES
"a POUND GAIN
IOWA MANUFACTURES MAKES a
STATEMENT TO THE PUB
Lie ABOUT TANLAC ..3s

r.&E EF.G SE4
j. D. Wilson, secretary ond general
manager Of the Algona Brick & Tile
Company Of Algona, Iowa, called at
McNerney's Drug store in Des Moines,
recently, and made a statement re
garding the benefits he has derived
from the use Of Tanlac that will be
of interest throughout the entire state.
In relating his experience with the
Master Medicine Mr.. Wilson says he
has not only gotten rid Of a case Of
nervous indigestion from which he had
suffered for three years, but that he
has also gained tWenty-four pounds in
weight. Here is his statement:
81 have been benefited even beyond
my belief and feel that it is time for
me to talk for the benefit Of others.
I had suffered from nervous indiges-
ton and a general u down condition
for three years. My stomach was so
weak and upset that I could not retain
and digest enough of what I ate to
keep up my strength and ! was grad
ually losing ground all the time. My
food would sour almost as soon as I
had eaten it and the gas from it
would press on my heart causing pal
pitation, shortness Of breath and in
tense pains. My kidneys were also in.
bad shape and I often suffered with
severe pains in the small of my back.
"No kind Of treatment or medicine
did me any good and as a result Of my
condition I was continually losing
weight. / was worried constantly with
the fear that my case was beyond con
troll Of medicines. But / finally began
taking Tanlac on the advict Of an old
friend and not only have my troubles
been relieved, but I feel like I had
been given a new lease on life. At the
time I began taking this medicine I
only weighed n hundred and eigh-
teen pounds, but now / balance the
scales at one hundred and forty-two,
making an actual gain of t~wenty-four
pounds. I a eat anything set before
me now and never feel a sign of in
digestion, Why, only yesterday / ate
steak ond onions for dinner, thorough
ly enjoyed them, and they did not hurt
me the least bit. I am now able to eat
cabbage and pork and digest them as
easily as I can milk. In fact, neither
my stomach or kidneys bother me any
more. l am absolutely free from all
pain and am in better shape physi-
cally than I have been in a long time.
A medicine that will do what Tanlac
has done for in my case is certainly
worth recommending to the public and
l am glad to give this statement to
be used in letting others, who are try
.ng to find relief, know about it"
Tanlac is sold in Bottineau by Sig
uardson's Pharmacy, in Westhope by
The Westhope Drug Co., in Gardena
by Ben H.. Boltz, in Willow City by
Willow City Drug & Jewelry Co., and
in Antler by Antler Drug & Jewelry

SAVING ON

For thirty years North Dakota paid out
thousands Of dollars for fire Insurance on its
buildings. It has many buildings. The capitol,
the governors residence, the penitentiary, the
reform school, the insane asylum good sized
town-the university, another good sized town,
as is also the Agricultural College,-all these
had to be insured against loss by fire.
The old system was good politics. The insur-
ance agent who was right" with the politicians
in power was handed a nice fat plum. The other
agent who was not fright" either got so little
that it was an insult or nothing at all. The busi-
ical debts.
Then the farmers came to bat. They decided
that the state would run it's own fire insurance
company. So they passed a law requiring the
state to pay all the fire insurance premiums
into one fund, at the old line insurance compan
les rates. The money so paid was to be held at
security against loss by fire.
Nv we have a taste of the pudding. We have
paid into the fund, $41,562.55 in five and one
half months! We have paid out in fire losses
S 3,773.32, and have on hand $$338,789.23 that
formerly went out of the state and into the
hands of insurance agents and companies. 1t
amounts to better than STE, 1000 a year OF saw
ing. Work like that won't take long to cut the
taxes down. ..
Another. proposition just like it:
The state, the county the city, the township,
have many servants. They are entrusted with
the peoples money, and to insure it's safe
guarding while it is in the keeping of those
servants, we have the servants give a bond.
Usually the bond is written by a surety COM
pany. We have three or four companies in the
state that were in on the business. Strangely
most of them were in the management Of old
politicians. A Fargo surety company is offlcered
by a former lieutenant governor; a Valley City
company is differed by a former governor
When it became necessary to get a bond Tor a
city or state treasurer, the surety company gave
the bond on payment Of a certain stated fee. 1t
ran into money pretty fast, after the companies
got together and made some sort of a gentle
mans agreement as to the size of the fee.
Then the farmers butted in. They said: Let
the state run it's own bonding company. They
have done that for two years now and what's
the answer? :
We have put away in the state treasury
$66, O43. 90. We spent of that, $3,892.34 for clerk
hire and stationery. When we get SlOO,OOO.OOO
in the treasury, we will cut down the rate for
the bonds and pretty soon abolish the cost.
We have saved $50, O 90 a year. Think what
we might have saved if we had started back
there in 1889! Think Of the "rake-off" that has
been taken.
Do you wonder taxes were high Do you Won
der that a good many portly gentlemen lived
easily and without labor and that these same
declare unanimously that the state is ruined?
Well, it is sort of ruined" for them!-Bur-
