DIR. HOWSER NOW
RECOMMENDS IT
Declares Tanlac Helped Him
Almost Beyond Belief And
1t Is Ideal Medicine.

DIR. Y. S. Howser, a prominent dentist
1916 Minnesota avenue, S. T., Washing
ton, d. O., is now an ardent champion
OF Tanlac because Of the benefits he has
derived from its use.
'Tanlac has helped me even beyond
my own belief" said Dr. Howser, land
i wish TO publicly state the facts for
what they may be worth TO others who
are in need Of something to set them
right.
'For sometime past my appetite has
been very poor and l could not relish
or enjoy my meals. Food failed to nour-
ish me properly and felt tired out and
rundown ell the time. In fact, | just
had general feeling of lassitude and
was not myself by any means.
Seeing Tanlac so highly praised
concluded to give it trial and it proved
to be exactly suited TO my needs. A
few bottles Of the medicine have given me
a wonderful appetite and enabled me
TO properly digest and assimilate my
food. Thus my troubles have been cor
rected and my system toned up until
have lost that tired, weak feeling and am
myself again. l consider Tsnlac ideal
from every standpoint I'd an more than
pleased with what it has accomplished
in my case"
Tanlac is sold in Eckerd's Medicine
Stores.

PAPER DELIVERY HELD Ur.
Richardson Park Residents Object 70
Discontinuancs Of Service.
Special Correspondence Every Evening.


Richardson Park Aug. 10.
Residents here who have complied
with the postal requirements in an
effort to secure house to house mall
delivery are threatening to discontinue
their Sunday papers because Of an
edict issued by dealer who has re-
fused to serve them. Heretofore the
papers have been served by boys, but
with the purchase of the route by local
store keepers the routes were discon-
tinued. The carriers formerly served
some OF the residents about noon on
Sundays, whereas the papers can now
be secured at o'clock at the store,
but the majcrlty OF the residents feel
that with all other commodities be-
ing served them at their homes the
newspapers should be left there also.
In all probability the non serving edict
will be discussed at the next meeting
of the Five Points Civics Association
and complaint lodged by that orga-
nization with the circulation depart
ments OF the various newspaper Of

Houston Upton Given Life Sentence
On Charge Of Killing His Sweetheart
Last February After Quarrel

bullet wound in the region OF his
heart IL was thought al the time
that Upton's wound would prove IA
lal, but he was removed TO a hospital
II Floydada where he completely re-
covered.
Some time after Upton was in
dicted for murder on two counts by
the Floyd county grand jury at
Floydada. One charge cited him as
the slayer Of Gladys Solomon and the
other alleged that he killed Nell Um-
borson.
The case was transferred 10 Dom
ley county for trial on change OF
venue The actual trial Of the case
began at Clarendon before Judge
Henry S. Bishop Of Amarillo Mon
day Of this week.
The charge on which Upton was
convicted was the killing Of Gladys
solomon.
Evidence brought out during the
trial showed that the killing followed
what Is supposed to have been a
quarrel between Upton and Miss
solomon over a ring which Upton Is
supposed 10 have given the young
woman. II was shown at the trial
that after the two had walked TO the
Umbcrson home together from a b.
~ p. T. meeting at the neighbor'
hood school house the young woman
was found crying, but she refused 70
disclose the cause 10 her two girl
companions on the right Of the trag-
edv
Later in the night some one came
into the room and held whispered
convorsation with the Solomon girl
according to Miss Wilson's testimony
nj the trial Some time later in the
night the shooting occurred.
one Of the defense pleas was that
Upton was insane al the time OF
me shooting. Several experts testi-
fled on the phase Of the case.
Young Upton is a son Of j. II. Up
Ton, a prominent Floyd county ranch
man
