Let him bring back with him the best

A NATIONAL SERVICE

''HE taught the American people
how to stew"
Edward Atkinson, of Boston, one of
the greatest of c6mmon-sense philoso
piers, once said he hoped to be en-
titled to that epitaph on his nnonu-
ment.
Mr.. Atkinson realized this import
ant truth: that it is more important
to show 25,O00,0OO families how to
save 10 cents per day than it is to
show the railroads how to save 81
100000 each day..
A ten-cent-a-day saving by 25,000,-
900 families would be daily saving
of S2,500,0O0, and an annual saving
of almost billion dollars.
Mr. Atkinson was the inventor of
the divice now known as the 'fireless'
cooker" This was hobby; his re-
gular job was the presidency of a
large mutual insurance company.
In 1887 he made the statement that
he needed only one cents worth of
kerosene oil for Thoroughly cooking
the food for family of ten persons.
He was interested, however not on
ly to teach people the possibility for
economy in fuel, but also in food. He
argued that with, slow cooking, beef

GIVES FACTS IN
HIS CASE

It is doubtful if there has ever
been medicine endorsed by so many
ministers of the Gospel as has Tan
lac. Indeed. there is scarcely a
faith, creed or denomination in all
the land in which one, or more, of the
clergymen has not publicly express
ed their Indebtedness to the Premier
Preparation for the benefits they have
derived from its use.
One of the latest to speak out in
this connection is Rev. B. NJ Bird
ges, widely known and beloved
Baptist preacher, residing at Moores-
borO N. c.. whose statement follows:
"Tanlac has given me a good ap-
petite, toned up my system and re-
newed my strength in such a crafty
ing way that | am glad to recommend
it to anyone who is in a rundown
condition. For ten years past | have
had such a severe case of indigestion
that | could not find anything to eat
that agreed with me. Finally l be-
came very nervous and could get but
very little sleep or rest.
ut seems that l took nearly every
thing trying to get myself right, but
nothing helped me until / ran across
Tanlac. My nerves are so much bet
ter now that my sleep is sound and
refreshing. l enjoy my meals and
have also gained weight. l can say
from experience that Tanlac is
splendid medicine and tonic, for it
