THIS MAN SAYS HE FLIRTED WITH GRAVE Fell Off Until He Only Weighed Seventy Pounds —Takes Tanlac and Gains Twenty-One Pounds “I’ll tell you the truth; if I knew this Tanlac was not going to be sold any more I would buy every bottle on that counter over there before I left tonight,” said W. A. Snitzer, at Patton-Pope’s Drug Store, Birmingham, recent ly. Mr. Spitzer is well-known painter, employed by the Tennes see Coal. Iron and Railway Com pany, and resides at 910 South .Sixty-eighthstreet, Birmingham. “Before I began taking it I only weighed 135 pounds. Today I got on the scales and tipped them to 156—a gain of 21 pounds —and more than I ever weighed in my life. That’s exactly what four bottles of Tanlac did for me. Just look at this belt! I had to let it up four inches, and it is still tight on me. “About seven years ago I com menced having stomach trouble, and it kept getting worse until I began having attacks of acute indigestion. When these attacks came on me ! would just swell up like a mule with the colic, and got as limp as a rag. My breath would get short, and my pulse so weak. I was afraid my heart would stop beating. The stom ach pump had to be used every time, as this was the only thing that would relieve me. Finally my kidneys went back on me, and I don’t believe I was out of pain night or day for four long years, and I actually got so weak I could hardly stand on my feet —much less work. I was fading away fast, and got down to where I only weighed 70 pounds. I was almost a walking skeleton, and I tell you I was flirting with my grave, and guess I would have been in it if it hadn’t been for Tanlac. For four years I couldn’t hit a lick of work. I guess I was as near dead as any man you ever saw to be alive. But, look at me now; I am strong and as well now as I ever was in my life, and can do as big a day’s work as any man. "Yes, sir, if ever a mortal man has been through the rub, I am the man. I have paid out, I guess not less than $2,500 in the past six or seven years for doctors’ bills and medicines, and have bought enough medicine from drug stores in Birmingham to own an interest in one of them, and I was lucky not to have an undertaker’s bill to wind it all up. “I have been a painter all mv life, and have had painter’s colic several times, so guess that had a lot to do with my condition. Anyway, there seemed to be nothing that would straighten me out. Every time I heard of a new* medicine I would get it. I read of Tanlaconeday. and that’s one time I hit it right. That’s what saved me. Why, Tanlac just raised me right out of my grave. I can now eat anything, and actually I eat so much I get ashamed of myself. My landlady said the other day she would have to raise mv board. I told her, though, she must remember that for four years she made money off of me, and that I was only making up for lost time. Why, seven or eight biscuits at a meal don’t satisfy me now, but I just SHOULD SAVE BURR CLOVER SEED NOW One of South’s Mo& Valu able Winter Crops, Says Mr. Rice One of our best soil builders has just finished it’s life work and now lays down to die leav ing a bright coat of brown on the ground with millions of seed for anew crop. Burr clover is one of the south’s best winter crops. It is a crop that furnishes one of the best winter grazing crops for hogs. It fits admirably ,with bermuda grass for permanent pastures, and when once pearmanently seeded will last for years. Pas tures have been known to last for over thirty years from one seeding. Besides playing such an impor tant part in aiding you to grow live stock at a profit it will turn the old worn out places into fer tile soil if you will just give it half a chance. Now is the time to harvest the seed. Harvesting the seed has perhaps been its drawback, but with a rake, broom, basket and sieve one man can save several bushels per day. In harvesting the seed the first thing to do is td remove the dead plants and trash with a rake, then sweep the seed up in piles and sieve un til you have separated the seed from the dirt and trash. Clean burr clover seed sell any where from ten cents to fifteen cents per pound; 14 pounds make a bushel. It is quite possible for one acre to make 200 bushels and had you ever thought that the boll weevil does not eat burr cloyer? Another trouble that the farm- quit at that for fear I will over do matters, but, everything tastes so good to me now! And sleep! why, I never would wake up if they didn’t come in and shake me. I haven’t a pain about me now.” Tanlac is sold bv Slaton Drug Cos., in Jackson, and Dr. A. F. White in Flovilla, Moore & Cos., at Cork, J. E. & W. R. Kitchens, Fincherville. Ga.
