|TANLAC SURELY
DOES THE WORK
SAYS LUCKETT
Is No More Like Same Man He
Was Before Than Day Is Like
Night, Declares Tennessean.

"Tanlac does the work and I am
strong for it," said Benjamin A. Luck
EFT with the White Truck and Bag
Company, 1901 Tennessee Ave. West
Nashville, Tenn.
II am sixty-nine years old and
thought my troubles were due to old
age. but Tanlac has convinced me that
was wrong for feel years younger
now and am as active as 1 was fifteen
years ago. / had been going down
hill for some time and had gotten to
a point where nothing I ate agreed
with me. After every meal had a
tight, stuffy feeling and sometimes
had awful smothering spells Ny kid
neys bothered me a good deal, too,
and my back ached almost all the
time day and night.
1T was simply wonderful the way
Tanlac took hold of me and built me
up right from the start. 1t COM
pletely knocked out all my troubles
and I am no more like the same man
was than day is like night Tanlac
has helped my wife wonderfully, too,
and we are both enthusiastic about
it."
Tanlac is sold in Pensacola by the
Crystal Pharmacy and leading drug
gists everywhere.-adv

The New Jersey laws were gone
through in detail and discussed sec

though New Jersey permits this kind
OF fishing. The fishermen claimed

will be more protection for the
smaller fish. which the fishermen
claim are being killed by the use
OF the nets of smaller mesh.

would mean an increase in trout In
