CHIEF ENGINEER GAINS 40 POUNDS ON EIGHT BOTTLES ■V" -H —* ‘ * Almost Lost Hope of Get ting WeH-*-Takeß Tanlac and Now Feels Better Than He Has in Twenty- Five Years "Tanlac, to my mind, is the freatest and grandest medicine i the world," said 0. H. Ma haffey, Chief Engineer of the Life & Casualty Building, Na?hville, a few days ago. "I have taken eight bottles," He continued, “and have actual ly gained forty pounds in weight, and feel stronger and.better than I have in twenty-five years. “For two years I have suffer ed with the worst kind of stom ach trouble and indigestion, and fell off in weight from 210 pounds to 162. lam now back at 202, which is almost as much as I weighed before I was taken sick. About six months ago I got aw ful bad off, and called in the doc tor, and he told me I had an ul cer of the stomach, and if I was not careful it might turn into can cer. He gave me Some medicine. I didn't seem to get any better, and was afraid to eat anything except a little oat meal and sweet milk, but in spite of everything I could do, I just kept going down hill, and got weaker and weaker every day. I got so dis heartened one day I told my em ployer it looked like I would have to throw up my job. I was try ing to hold on though as long as I could, for I had a family to support, and I made up my mind that just as long as I could drag myself around I would stick it out. "One day my wife told me what she had read in the papers, and what the neighbors were saying about Tanlac, and begged me to try it. She had read about a man who had taken it, who described my case exactly, and he was getting lots better, but I had tried all kinds of medicines, so I didn’t have much hope of it doing me much good. Besides, my doctor had already told me I would have to be operated on in order to get relief. Some thing just told me, though, it might help me, and I decided to try it. "After I had taken it a day or two I got so hungry I just sim ply had to eat, and I did eat, and you can believe me or not, nothing seemed to hurt me a particle. My wife said to me, "Tanlac must be helping you," and I said. ‘I guess it is from the way I am eating.’ "It wasn’t long before those awful pains in my stomach and the small of my back began to leave me. Then I noticed I be- gan to sleep better, and I would 1 get up in the mornings full of life and ready to work. The med icine seemed to take hold quick er than anything I ever saw, and braced me right up. I am tel ling all my friends about Tanlac, and hope everybody will hear about it.” Tanlac is sold in Jackson exclu aively by Slaton Drug Cos.

SAFE LIBERAL CONSERVATIVE ■ ‘ H <■■■ i.: ft i;; i •• X % Your Account Is Invited Farmers’ Conferences At Agricultural College President Andrew M. Soule, Georgia State College of Agriculture During tbe first three weeks of each new year the farmers of Georgia have right of way at the College of Agri culture. From the 4th to the 15th of January there will be tbe annual session of the Short Course for farm ers, following which come the annual meetings of the Georgia Breeders’ As sociation, the Georgia Dairy and Live stock Association and the Georgia State Horticultural Society. On account of the great growth ot the number of students for the junior courses at the Short Course, it has been deemed essential that the boys and girls should be taught at another time, hence arrangements are beiqg made to teach them in midsummer. The Short Courses at the first of the year, will, therefore, be restricted to mature men and women. Among those who will be present will be the demonstration agents from all parts of the state. They, too, will at tend a short course for their special benefit. The work of the Short Course will be happily consummated by the at tendance of the farmers upon the meet ings of the various associations men tioned. Inspiring and instructive ad- Pleasure and Protection “One of the best reasons why I would not be without telephone service,” writes a Georgia far mer. "is the pleasure it gives my wife and the knowledge that while I am away, she has the pro tection that the telephone gives.” On the farm the telephone dispels loneliness and is the means of bringing help in any emer gency that may arise. If you haven't a telephone on your farm see the nearest Bell Telephone Manager or write for our free booklet and learn how little this service costs.

Always these are men of special fitness and na tional prominence to speak at these meetings on various phases of agri culture. It will be the case again at the coming conferences. ~ ..,, At these meetings are brought to gether the experts who have been finding out truths about agriculture by scientific procedure, and also prac tical, wide-awake farmers. The inter change of facts, the answered ques tions, the new discoveries all conspire to make the meetings of the very greatest importance to the farmer. Ideas obtained from these conferences have been converted into farm suc cesses. The conferences pay. These meetings afford the greatest opportunities for the expression of policies having to do with the wel fare of the farmers of Georgia. They provide the forum and the opportun ity to plead for Georgia’s agriculture— the largest single interest within the state.
