Eyes, miss, that's the way to the vii
lage. SO you're the new principal OF
the free school! l hope you'll like
the place, miss, and stay with us
a while; the last principal she found
ed the schoOl-Miss Brown from Bos-
ton, you knOw-and she bided here
for seven and twenty years until Doc
Bentley sent her home to die.
Couldn't do nothing for her. he said,
and that's saying a heap, for we all
thinks a good deal of Doc Bentley
down this way.
''Doc Bentley, did you ask? Yes,
he's been our doctor for nigh upon I'VE
years now. That's his house ON the
hill.
give years ago Doc Bentley was
practicing in NortOnville, hundred
miles across the mountains yonder.
Doc Bentley was considered the best
doctor there, and he used to be thick
with all the society folks in the place
"But for all his big practice Bentley
wasn't the man to sacrifice the poor to
get bigger fee.
"You see, miss, Doc Bentley was en-
gagged to be married to Miss Edith
Somers, the only daughter of old Jim
Somers, who built the railroad from
Clatiin clear over those mountains.
The day was set for their marriage at
the Presbyterian church. And you'd
have thought that he'd have let uD
little on his practicing, with his we'd
ding day a few hours off. But he
didn't.
"The night before his marriage a
call came over the long distance tele-
phone from Carriers, which lies Is
miles south from NOrtonville, in the
midst of the mountains. A negro
man had been crushed by wagon and
he was the nearest doctor. Would he
come at once?

BURIED WITH THEIR HUSBAND
Wives of Members of the 6arau Tribe
of the Congo Are Inferred With
the Corpse.

The Barua tribe in the Congo dis
strange and horrible customs, but of
them ali their burial customs are the
most terrible. When q man dies a
large grave is dug. The corpse and
his wives-these may be anywhere
from two to twenty-are escorted to
the hole with wild music and the In
terested attendance of the entire tribe.
The chief wife is thrust into the hole,
and the corpse Is then lowered. The
second wife follows. The dead mans
relatives then proceed to break the
arms and legs of the two wives so
they cannot get out of the hole. The
head of the corpse is placed in the lap
of the head wife, and the feet in the
lap of the second wife.
The rest of the wives are then thrust
into the hole, their limbs broken, and
they are forced to sit in circle about
the corpse and its human supporters.
The priest chants a few words, and
everyone falls to with rude shovels,
dishing earth into the hole. They new
er stop until the grave is full and the
corpse and the living wives buried far
under the earth. The bowls of the
wives with their broken limbs and fear
of the terrible death are drowned by
the banging Of drums and the yells OF
the delighted tribe.

partment officials in their studies
are convinced that lime is needed by
animals as well as by plants.
when their attention was drawn
TO the great mortality among ami
mails of all classes last year from
disease and exposure. IL was their
conclusion that pastures upon which
animals grazed. because OF lack in
nourishment. may have contributed
greatly TO this death rate. officials
OF the Department declared that
lime is essential to the full growth
and healthful pastures for animals.
Lime. they said. improves the quail
ity and variety OF grasses and
clovers. Not only are the grasses
and clovers more abundant on lime
treated soils. but they are grown in
greater profusion.

The first bottle of Tanlac to reach
the public was sold just a little over
six years ago. Its success was imme-
date and people everywhere were
quick to recognize it is medicine of
extraordinary merit. Since that time
there have been sold throughout this
country and Canada something over
Twenty Million (20,000,000) bottles,
establishing a record which has prob
ably never been equalled in the his
tory of the drug trade in America.
Fame Is international.
The instant and phenomenal success
which Tanlac won when it was first
introduced has been extended to prac-
tically every large city, small town,
village and hamlet in North America,
It's fame has become international in
its scope and England, Japan, Mexico,
Cuba, Hawaii, Alaska, Porto Rico and
many European countries are clamor-
ing for it.
From coast to coast and from the
Great Lakes, Tanlac is known and hon

most gratifying and astonishing re-
suits and have pronounced it the
greatest medicine of all time.
