Mine OWNER WAS
FORCED TO QUIT
MOVES TO COAST SEEKING HIS
HEALTH-TAKES TANLAC AND
WILL RETURN HOME A
WELL MAN

Il was forced to give up my mining
business in Nevada and come out here
seeking health but thanks to Tanlac l
am coming back a well man." said
William II. Hart, who owns the Vtndl-
Mine in Tonopah, Nevad-
a. Mr.. Hart made this remarkable
statement while in one of the Owl
Drug Company's stores in Los Angeles,
Cal, recently.
For nine longs years | have suffer
ed terribly with indigestion and stom-
ach trouble" he continued. mo treat
ment or medicine gave me any per-
manent relief and got in such ner-
vous state and rundown and emacia-
ted condition that / had to leave my
mine and come out here and try to
find some thing to help me. My ap-
petite was poor and everything | ate
formed gas in my stomach that would
start pains which almost drew me
double sometimes. / got so nervous
that l could not grasp pen long E.
nough to write a letter and at night
eventhe sound of the wind blowing a
round the house would upset me.
couldn't sleep anyway and this togeth-
er with my stomach trouble pulled
me down until had lost forty pounds
of my weight Back in June | had a
more severe attack and couldn't stay
on the job another day, SO l just gave
up and came out here. | didn't get
any relief until a friend recommended
Tanlac and l started taking it.
81 feel like a new man since l fin
ished my fourth bottle of Tanlac. /
am eating three square meals every
day and enjoying them My nerves
are as steady as rock again and l
can lay down at night and sleep as
sound as a healthy child and get up in
the morning feeling like different
man. To make a long story short, |
am going back to my mines well
man and able to get on the job and to
stay there. Tanlac has overcome the
troubles that kept me in misery for
nine long years and I am glad to have
chance to tell everybody just how
it has helped me. If had only found
Tanlac back at home it would have
saved me the expense of the trip out
here and all that | have paid out for
treatments and medicines. but my ex-
perience with Tanlac alone has been
worth more than that to me"

Ladies, beware of exclusive designs
in boots You've no idea what a peck
of trouble they may cause. If you
have any doubt on this score, go and
see Constance Talmadge in her latest
Select Picture, MRS Leffingwell's
Boots" which will be shown at the
Amazon theater on Wednesday night,
March 3.
Miss Talmadge is cast most happily
as Mrs. Leffingwell, the dainty young
matron, who to pique her husband and
make him loosen up" with his coin,
flirts with other men. Then the boots
make their appearance. Little Mrs.
Leffingwell is strong for fancy clothes
and she simply can't resist the impulse
to buy a pair of handsomely embroid-
cred slippers, the replica of pair
which another young man has pur-
chased to give to his fancee. In the
end the young lady breaks off her en-
gagement with. the young man, and
the latter gives the boots, or slippers,
to his housemaid. Mr. Leffingwell
knows his wife has pair of the same
kind, so when he looks into the young
mans windows and sees someone try
ing on the slippers, he naturally be-
lieyes it is his wife Trouble follows
thick and fast, until house party
throws the whole group together and
the complications are explained; then
the whole thing is cleared up and the
boots land in a muddy brook.
