HIGHLY PLEASED
Says a Number of Her
Friends Took Tanlac
After Seeing Wonder
full Good 1t Did Her

"If | could talk to everybody suf-
fering as | did I'd certainly tell
them to take Tanlac, for it has re-
lieved me of troubles that made life
miserable for six long years. said
Mrs. Margaret Hutchens, of 81
Blackwell street, Covington, KY.
"About six years ago my back
limbs and joints got to hurting and
| gradually got worse until | had to
use a stick in getting about the
house. Nearly two years ago my
stomach became disordercd and
whatever | ate panied me for hours
and much of the time | was badly
bloated. | could hardly stoop over
in doing my homework and finally
| got so weak and nervous | Just had
to give up trying to do anything
suffered fortunes from cramps and
mains all over my body and was SO
misefable | thought I'd never be well
again.
"My husband got me to try Tan,
lac and by the time | had finished
my second bottle I was fast getting
better. | have Just finished my
tenth bottle and have no more aches
nor pains and am no longer troubled
in any way. am so delighted with
Tanlac that I've put my little CIR
to taking it as tonic and have also
persuaded number of my neigh.
Dor to take it.

CARRIERS OF DREAD DISEASE
How Science Has Shown Children TO
Be the Bearers OF Deadly Diph-
liberia Germs.

There is probably no more difficult
or more unsatisfactory problem In
contagious diseases than that of the
diphtheria carrier. Though the death
rate for diphtheria has been greatly re-
duced, since the discovery Of antitoxin.
the morbidity rate has remained vir.
tually the same, says the Journal of
the American Medical Association.
Gelien, Moss and Guthrie found that
approximately Is per cent Of 800
healthy children In Baltimore were
carriers Of diphtheria bacilli at one
time or another, and about II per cent
of these were carriers Of virulent or
gaDisms. They also found higher
percentage of positive cultures in chill
dren with pathologic threats than in
those with normal threats. OF SO
children who yielded positive cultures
at the first examination, 20 had posi-
tive cultures two weeks later. After
four, six, eight, ten and twelve weeks,
the number Of positive cultures was
fifteen, eleven, twelve and six, respec-
lively.

OBITUARY

Mrs. Hanna Iverson Stakkevold, one
of Valley City's oldest residents, pass
ed away Monday, April 4th at six
o'clock at the home of her daughter,
Mrs. Magne Larson, with whom she
has made her home for the past rs
years, first in La Crosse, Wisconsin:
and when they moved to Valley City
to live with their daughter, Mrs. Sam
Mikkelson, they brought the aged
mother along. The deceased was 80
years and three months old at the time
of her death, and within less than
nine months would have been CEN
tenarian, being born in Swartness
Balsfjord, Norway, January 6, 1922:
and came to America the year Of 1872.
She had two sons in Norway, Peter
and H. Andreassen, who already have
passed to the great beyond. She also
leaves daughter in Minneapolis, Mrs.
Hernandez. besides Mrs. Larson of
this city. She had been able to sit up
until three weeks ago when she sud-
denly started to fade and finally slip
ped away to return to her maker. Mrs.
Iverson was a devoted christian, and
good mother, having lived in close
fellowship with God for over SO years.

: HOW DO YOU SAY IT?
By c. N. LURE
Common Errors in English and
How to Avoid Them
"CAN" AND "MAY."

IT HE two auxiliary verbs "can" and
i may" are frequently confused.
Can" is used to express power or
possibility; that Is, it means to be
able to do or to have the power OF
doing something. MAY" expresses
permission or probability; that is, 1t
indicates the permission or the right
to do something. Thus, the pupil may
incorrectly ask of the teacher "Can 1
speak to my seatmate?" and the
teacher may reply, eyes, you can
speak to him." (meaning that the ques-
toner has the power or the ability to
do SOY, ''but you may not do So"
(meaning that the teachers permits
sion is withheld). "Can you lend me
a dollar?" the CHRONIC borrower might
ask, and the reply might be, "Yes, I
can lend you one, but I will not"
Grammarians make similar dis
tinction in the use of "cOuld' and
would" when the past tense or the
subjunctive is employed.
