“I have gained twenty pounds
or more and anyone who knew the
dreadful condition I was in can
readily see the wonderful change
Tarilac has made in me,” said Mrs.
N. F. Morris, who resides at 910
East Missouri Street, El Paso, Tex-
sa, after using five bottles of the
“Master Medicine.”
“No one,” she continued, “ex-
cept those afflicted the same way
can have but a faint idea of the
awful suffering T went through
for seven ears. I had indigestion,
a bad stomach and rheumatism in
in my back and shoulders. Many
a day, and even months at a time,
I have lived most altogether on
liquids: Occasionally for break-
fast I was allowed a glass of milk
and a little stale bread toasted,
and I got so I couldn’t evep take
that. I couldn’t even drink wa-
ter without it causing me trouble.
I was often so sick and nauseated
T felt like T would die and some
days there 'wasn’t an hour but
: what I would have a vomiting
i spell, and while in this fix I was
1 completely exhausted. The gas on
my stomach made my heart beat
so fast it seemed like it would
jump out of my body and I just
had to struggle for breath. I
was very nervous, couldn’t sleep
at night and felt" tired and worn
out all the time. T had fearful
headaches and, really, I never
knew what it was to be free from
euxering.
“I spent three months in one
hospital and was told my trouble
was caused by either gallstones
or appendecitis, but I came back
to El Paso and kept getting worse.
My suffering was so terrible T did
not much care whether T lived or
not, and I had become discourag-
ed and down-hearted. Then T went
to a hospital and had my appendix
removed, I still suffered the same
way and became more despondent
than ever. My husband and fami-
ly paid out hundreds of dollars
trying to get something to help
me, and just to think a few bottles
of Tanlac have done more than ev-

Contract Let For Smelter at Ben-
jamin, Knox County.
Benjamin Post: Contracts have
been signed up by certain Denver
parties and the Brazos-Wichita
Copper Company to the effect that
within a short time the erection of
a smelter will be begun in Benja-
min. Some of the most substantial
business men of the city are be-
hind the proposition and will push
it to a successful consummation.
The copper people have been car-
rying on a lot of prospect work in
this and adjoining
have had experts pass on the vari-
ous
ations found here, and they realize
itive way and the stories of min-
eral wealth and rieh hidden mine^
read like fiction. A few of these
mines mines were worked years
ago when coal had to be freighted
from Wichita Falls in wagons and
the ore carried back in that way.
We hope the Brazos-Wichita peo-
ple have found the magical key to
this source of wealth and will
make a success of this proposition.

erything else certainly1 seems re-
markablle to me. Tanlac seemed
to go right to the seat of my trou-
ble and in a few days I had a good
appetite and commenced to gain
in weight and strength. My rheu
mat ism and nervousness are gone
and I sleep good every night, and
my appetite is so great T have to
guard myself to keep from eating
more than T should. I am still tak-
ing Tanlac ut I have aleady gotten
so stout and healthy looking that
I don’t get any more sympathy
I’m talking Tanlac all the time
and my friends often speak of how
much better I look.”
Tanlac is sold in Jacksboro by
J. H. Walters; in Perrin by W. A.
Woods; in Gibtown by Gibtown
Drug Co., and in Bryson by E.
Hughes.—(Advertisement).

cans owned this country in a prim- Buy War Savings Stamps!
Recently the Paris correspond- i %
ent of an American news: agency j %
summed up the task confronting ^
the United States as follows:
America must furnish millions
of men to make good the defec-
tion of Russia and to counterbal-
ance he loss in man power of he-
roic France.
America must produce enough
food to keep France, England,
Belgium and Ttal in fighting trim.
America must build enough
ships to transport her armies and
their supplies and to keep the
stream of food and war material
flowing to the allied countries.
America must construct enough
airplanes to give the allied armies
the mastery of the air.
America must make good the
loss in prisoners and war material
suffered by the Italian armies.
If the United States government
would tomorrow mobilize the
country’s entire manhood, prohib-
it the manufacture and transpor-
tation of all goods not essential to
the conduct of the-war, place ev-
erybody on rations, assign to each
man between 21 and 55 his partic-
ular job on the farm; in the facto-
ry, the shipyard, or the army, the
Colossal program could be carried
out—in its entirety-provided the
prograih could be figured by a na-
tion engaged exclusively in war
work. But in no other way could
an army of eight or ten million
men be withdrawn from produe-
tiQn, trained, equipped and trans-
ported by land and sea while the
remaining man power was at the
same, time maintaining produc-
tion. )
1 Obviously it is impossible, with
he best intention in the world, to
do everything every belligerent
nation asks. The most important
ask confronting the government
is a careful inventory, a stock-tak-
ing of the available resources both
in men and material. After this
inventory is at hapd, after the non-
essentials have been restricted to
the lowest minimum compatible
with the maintenance of the na-
nation’s financial and industrial
health, those in control of the war
will have to decide upon which
spot the nation
strongest, the most effective blows
for democracy.
But if no single factor can by
itself produce victory, if soldiers,
food, guns,aircraft, munitions, and
ships to carry them are all indis-
pensable, then it becomes the duty
of the government to ascertain the
maximum quantities in which
each element can be supplied with-
out impairing the production of
other essentials.
With forethought, economy, sys-
tem and planning Uncle Sam is
equal to the job.

R. C. Taylor, proprietor bottling

Taylor said: “I can still recom-
