Relief from Gas Stomach Pains
 Dizziness

The doctors tell us that 90 per cent of all sickness Is due to stomach and bowel troubles You cant be well if your digestion is bad; you are likely to get sick unless you relish food and digest 1t properly.
 Tanlac has wonderful record as relief from digestive troubles, even those of years standing.
 Local people, many of whom you know, are highly endorsing Tanlac. For example, Mrs. Ellen White says: For years l suffered from indiges. ton. l got no relief from anything until took Tanlac. After my fourth bottle, l feel like new person and have fine appetite"
 If you suffer from gas, pains in the stomach or bowels, dizziness, nausea, constipation, or torpid liver; if you have no appetite, can't sleep and are nervous and all run down, you need Tanlac. It is good, pure medicine. made of roots, herhs and barks. Get a bottle from your druggist today. Money back if it doesn't help you. Accept no substitute.

WHY HaNDcuFF YOUR woRKMEN

Since 1914, everything bought and
used by the electric industry has at
least doubled in cost. Yet the average
price paid for kilowatt- of power
is no higher now than then and cost
OF current used in homes is % per cent
below 1874 figure.
There is net a single major utility
iii the United States which is not do
ing everything in its powes to improve
service and reduce costs SO that use OF
electricity may increase.
A popular political criticism today is
that regulation of electric utilities has
broken down. This is not fair state
ment. What has happened is what
M. S. Sloan president of the National
Electric Light Association, points out
"The business has grown so fast thai
the laws and machinery of public
regulation have not kept pace with it
development"
Continuing, Mr.. Sloan says: "Ther'
is. so far as know, nc objection from
Utilities 70 any sane and constructive
improvement in laws and the machin
cry of regulation. There would ant

WHY HIGH TAXEsg--ANsWER IT
YOURSELF

Between 1923 and 1927 the cost of
operating the city governments of this
country increased si,3l8oOO,0oo, or 25.6
per cent. Since then the cost has I'M
doubtedlg continued to mount rapidly.
Here is ammunition for those who
rail against the tax burden without
taking definite action. The Federal
government has, in the main, made a
good record of economy since the war,
High taxes are the result of waste,
duplication of effort, government VEN
ture into business or unnecessary ex-
travagance in the matter of public I'M
provements on the part of local units
of government.
The much-talked-about increased
cosa of living and increased taxation
are due to one simple ause-extrav-
agance. We may not like to admit it,
but it's fact MISUNDERSTANDING
agance in family life and extravaganza
in government activity. Be Judge and
Jury in your own case and see what
answer you get
