And. on the other hand. you have
the satisfaction of knowing If you do
an honest days work that you have

1t Is the lack Of recognition given
10 the fact that We are all dependent
each upon the other that leads to our
greatest troubles. II Is that that pits
capital against labor and labor against
capital. II Is that that causes the war
between classes and the wars between

that keeps the world on an even keel

EVERYBODY sEEsA
CHANCE IN FATHER
Grateful Son Says His Father
Looks Like Different Man
Since Taking Tanlac.

MY fnther has suffered from
chronic stomach trouble for over
twenty years and has paid out thou
sands Of dollars for medicines and
doctors" said G. w. Slayton. we'll
known Cobb County farmer, living
short distance out of Atlanta, Ga.
"We tried nearly everything trying
to cure him and he went of to the
Springs, thinking maybe the water
might help him, but it just looked
like nothing would reach his trouble.
Then he tried dieting and lived on
liquid food until he almost starved.
but eyen that failed to do him any
good and he just kept going from bad
to worse.
Il don't guess there ever was O
case as stubborn as his, and II there
ever was confirmed dyspeptic he was
one Of them, and / guess he would
have been one yet II 1t hadn't been
for this Tanlac.
"The first we heard Of this medi-
cine was when my father saw an ad-
yertisement in the papers from parties
he knew in Tennessee, who were
friends Of his and he knew what they
said about it was the truth, SO he got
It right away and began taking 1t.
Well, sir, it acted just like magic
everybody notices the change In fa-
ther. Why, he is just like different
man and sits down to the table and
eats like farmland. Only yesterday
he ate pork and turnips for his dinner
and ate so much we were actually
afraid he was going to overdo the
thing, but he laughed and said nothing
hurt him now and that he was hungry
and expected to eat and make up for
lost time.
Now, when a medicine will do
things like that l think people ought
to know about 1t, and l want to say
right now that l would not give one
hottie of Tanlac for all the other
medicines and health resorts In tho
country put together"
