^^^ositively, I hadn’t seen a well
day in six years till I began tak-
ing Tanlac,” said Mrs. J. H. Nich-
ols, whose address is box 35, Bark-
er, Texas.
“Six years ago,” she continued,
“I solt my appetite and had to
force down every mouthful I ate.
Hardly anything agreed with me
and I suffered terribly from indi-
gestion. My nerves were in a
wretched state and my back and
lmbs pained me so I could hardly
sleep. I had awful headaches and
would get so dizzy as to almost
fall. I was so weak and rundown
that I could hardly drag myself
around the house, my housework
just tired me to death and I lived
in sonstant dread of a breakdown.
“As nothing else seemed to do
me any good I decided to try Tan-
lac and I shall never get through
being thankful for what it did for
me. Since taking Tanlac my im-
provement has been wonderful,
my indigestion is all gone and I
have several pounds in weight.
My nerves are in better shape and
my sleep is refreshing. I have got-
ten over those dragging pains and
have more life and energy than I
have had in a long time.

Bh* was just a little red-cheeked
country girl who had come to the
fclty to work. She hadn't come for
any story-book motive, such as paying
off the mortgage on the old farm. She
was just a country girl who wanted
to make a little money of her very
own. There wasn't any chance at
home. There was the butter and egg
money, of course, but the family was
-large and there wasn’t much to sell.
;8o, like hundreds of other country
girls, she came to the city to work. »
She secured a position as nurse-girl
to two children, not much smaller
than herself—-she was scarcely more
than fifteen. But the wages she drew
amounted to very little more than the
butter and egg money back home.
The children were not always kind
and she could never do as she wished,
but always what they desired.
Finds World Unkind.
A vague, hurt, longing came into her
heart She wanted to see mother and
dad. She wanted to feed the baby
chickens; to rub old Dobbin’s nose;
to hutft hen’s neBts; to ride to the
pasture for the cows; she was just
plain homesick.
One of her duties was to take the
children to the park in the afternoon.
This was rather pleasant, usually, but
one day when the ache in her heart
was the strongest, and the children
were more unkind then usual, she
jawoke to the fact that she wanted
‘(companionship-some one with whom
fihe could talk of the things she liked
to talk about, and then she saw him.
He was a soldier boy and was sit-
ting on a bench in the park near
where the children were playing. He
was a bit lonely too, and in a very
phort time the homesick souls were
sharing troubles. Every day she met
him there and then one day, he was
icallec} away. That day at the park
Jie told her good bye. But before he
left, he took the girl to a Salvation
Army home. The boy twirled his cap
}n embarrassment as the matron
talked to him, but he looked her
square in the eyes.
He Was Square
*Tve treated her square.” he said,
“but she will get lonesome again and
the next fellow might not be so square.
So I am wanting you to care for her
and look after her for me while I am
gone.”
The girl stayed at the home, and
when the war was over, a big,
browned fellow rushed into the home,
calling, “Mary!"
Mary was there and the two were
married in the hoi c Now Mary and
Mary's solid er hoy are living on i,he
■pld farm, caring for mother and fath-
er, and j t be*nL; happy. And when
they go to the ( t ■' thoy never fail

KNOW THAT “FEELN
The streets of Stephenville are
filled with trucks and wagons be-
ing drawn by heavy draft horses,
and the vehicles carry all sorts of
material to the oil fields. Hun-
dreds of loads of casing for oil
wells have been sent out of Ste-
phenville, to say nothing af the
lumber.

And You’ll All Be Comfortable This Winter
RIANY folks seem to have the idea that Munsingwear is high priced. The
iT*fine quality and careful workmanship in Munsingwear undoubtedly gives
that impression. v
When they find out the price of the particular Munsingwear style and
fabrick that they like best they are usually surprised—and delighted.
They are delighted again when they put on their Munsingwear—it fits so
perfectly, feels so comfortable. x
Again they are surprised when the Munsingwear comes back from the wash
—as perfect-fitting as ever.
The climax to their Munsingwear experience comes when they discover how
long it wears.
For any man, woman or child—tall, thin, short or stout—there’s a perfect-
fitting Munsingwear garment in any style, fabric or weight desired.
