MERCHANT TELLS OF
A REMARKABLE CASE

Writing from Maxey's, Ga, A. J..
Gillen, proprietor of large depart
ment store at that place, says:
Il have customer here who was in
bed for three years and did not go to
a meal at any time. She had five ply
sicians and they gave her out. One
bottle of Tanlac got her up, on the
second bottle she commenced keeping
house and on the third she did all the
cooking and housework for family
Of eight"
This sounds really incredible, but it
comes unsolicited from a highly cred
liable source and is copied verbatim
from the letter.
Tanlac is sold by leading druggists

MASS MEETING
AT EIR0UhA

There was a big mass meeting held
in the Istrouma school house Wednes-
day night to discuss the needs of that
thickly settled community. The meet
ing was called to order by Professor
Bowdon, the principal of the Istrouma
school, and by the way that is one of
the most substantial school buildings
in the parish, and he explained the
needs from his point Of view Of the
people in that section. When he con-
cluded he called on Mr.. John Gala
CHAN.
Mr.. Callaghan went very minutely
into the costs Of constructing a water
works and sewerage system, and sug-
gested that sewerage district be
formed and bonds floated to pay for
the construction work. He stated,
however, that selling bonds right now
was most diuicult job, and that it
would be best to wait longer time
So that more thought could be given
to the matter. He told the citizens
pres, ut that he thought they could get
from the police jury all the moral,
civil and sanitary protection they
needed by appearing before the police
jury and explaining to them their
needs. Extra police can be supplied,
he said, in the form of resident dup
uty sheriffs, one for the day and one
for night duty; a permanent health
officer for the parish he said was
about to be appointed, and he thought
that the plant would extend his fire
apparatus so that it would be at the
command of the people in case of
fire.
Then he concluded his talk by say
ing that the three greatest present
needs, fire protection, police protection
and sanitary protection would be sup
piled Immediately by the citizens ap.
pearing before the police jury and
stating their wants.
Ralph Metz who also lives in that
section talked along the same line
and counselled his fellow citizens to
hold these mass meetings every month
or two and discuss among themselves
the needs of civic improvement. He
stated that after all their salvation
" in their own care and keeping
al h that each individual could do more
tC beautify that section of the parish
and keep it morally clean, than coule
be done by any outside agency. He
paid a glowing tribute to Frank Cline
the police juryman from the ward.
The result Of the meeting was a

section and make it one Of the pref

Mr.. Couvillon was another speaker
that stressed most forcibly the needs
Of the community and he made very
marked impression in his address. The
meeting did seem he said to empha-
size the needs in fire, police, and san
itary protection of the community.
A committee will be appointed to
meet with the police jury at its next
meeting to ask for more consideration

 Toro's mind still ran to contract ing and building. however, and. aft CT his days work at the grocery he always studied several hours on his pet project; plan to rig mines up instead Of down, SO the ore could be taken out by the force of gravity. Under Toro's plan all the mines here would merely have to be turned upside down and he figured it would be simple matter to place a cake of yeast wherever a raise wss want ed
 Although this plan wast never put into effect, Toro did. however sue cced in selling another ideaa formu- Ia for grating pretzel twig to a pea nut tree and producing hard-shelled doughnuts.
