My liver was sluggish and some
times / got so dizzy would nearly
fall felt tired and miserable all the
time, couldn't even sleep and for days
at time wasn't able to go to work.
"NVell, a friend of mine finally got
me to try Tanlac, and it certainly has
done good job for me. My appe-
tite is fine now and although ] am
eating just anything want and as
much as / please, my stomach never
gives me the least trouble. l have
picked up in weight, my strength has
come back to me, and / am now en-
joying the best of health.
"AIl the men at the store know
Tanlac put me back on my feet, and !
am glad to give this statement for
what it may be worth to Others"
Tanlac is sold by leading druggists
exceptionally.

Il used to think all the Tanlac tes-

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten2 The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-R Root, a
preparation | have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many Of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation. the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
SO many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address

Absence Of Disease
Isn't Health; You
Need Vitality, Energy

You may have no particular dis
ease, and yet fall far short Of en-
joying real health. To be actually
healthy you must be sturdy, alert,
vigorous, a-sparkle with enthus-
iasm and the JOY of living fairly
bubbling over with vitality and
energy. Are you thus?
If you are well, yet listless and
unambitious, it is because you lack
some quality that would fill you
with vim and drive, and nine times
out Of ten the sole cause Of this
lack is found to be disordered, weak

CITY PREPARES
OPPOSITION TO
ONE-MAN CARS
Time Bridge Line Runs, Repeat
Rumors and Express General
Dissatisfaction.

Tri-City Railway company on
Gals will probably be called before
the Rock Island city commissioners
to defend charges OF inefficiency OF
the one-man car system.
Commissioner Frank WITCH yes
terday afternoon introduced reso-
luton to make formal protest
against the one-man car on the
bridge line and to block attempt to
standardize local lines to that type
His motion, however, was tabled
when the commissioners agreed
that company officials should be
heard before further steps are
taken surrounding the one man car
situation before registering a for
NAL protest and going to the length
of testing lhe city's authority In
banning the system in Rock Island.
Ben jacobson, president OF the
Tri-City Federation of Labor and
Charles Reagan, editor Of the Labor
Review, presented the commission
with a written complaint expressed
In resolutions adopted by the Tri-
City Federation OF Labor. They de-
clared that throwing men out OF
work was only incidental to the
principles of the protest.
They declared that previous to
one man operation of bridge line
cars there had been four cars on
the run and that these had main
tanned 35-minute round trip
schedule, and that now with five
cars on the route the schedule is
not better than 40 minutes.
They said that Rock Island men
working in Davenport who started
at their usual time arrived at
places of employment Is minutes
late.
They said that with one-man cars
on all lines on this side of the river,
the company has offered only a re-
duction of one cent in fare

motorman was six minutes in col
lecting fares from passengers who

May Violate State Law.
He said the only thing that
seems to present itself is the lining
of a safety zone and allowing auto
lists to drive by street cars between
the zone line and the curb. This. he
explained, necessitates a violation
of the state law, which stipulates
that an auto shah not be driven
closer than 10 feet to the steps OF
a street car that has been stopped
to take on or discharge passengers.
The mayor said that Second ave-
nue. and many other streets IN Rock
Island are too narrow to allow the
marking out of safety zone for
persons using the street cars and
leave 10-foot alley for passengers.
1t was given as the opinion OF
the labor delegates that once all
lines are equipped with the one
man cars the fares will be no
lower than now. Mayor Schriver
said that it was his opinion that
once the present type cars are
made over and run for some length
of time, the company will install
the "dinky" car. The mayor said
that John G. Huntoon, vice presi-
dent of the company, showed him
figures recently that the company
is losing approximately $4,000 a
month desnife the rednced wages.
