Before I took yTanlac I only

a seriously weakened condition and
suffered nearly all the time from
headache and backache. My nerves
were beyond my control and I was
terribly dizzy. I couldn't half sleep
and my stomach was so out of order
that even the sight of food nauseated
me.

Tanlac are priceless. I am now a per

Immense Telephone Traffic.

Z The magnitude of telephone traffic
department operations can perhaps be
visualized by the statement that the
Bell-owned companies alone employ
10000 operators to serve some $780,
600 stations, which make over 12,O00,-
100000 calls year. Looking forward
to 1924 there will probably be 25,O00,-
600 telephones in the United States,
and the complexities of telephone plant
and operations increase much more
rapidly than the number of stations.
The 10000 operators are located in
$500 Offices. The telephone buildings
and land alone represent an invest
ment of nearly $160,000000 and, as an
interesting detail, in the single item
of lunches, which are provided only in
the larger cities where the girls can
not conveniently go home for lunch,
there is a considerable business, turn
ing over some S8,000,000 year.
