TOM STRINGFELIOW GAINS 22 POUNDS Railroad Man Says Tanlac Is the Only Thing That Ever Helped Him After Suffering Four Years “If the people of this town only knew what Tanlac had done for me you would sell a thousand bot tles tomorrow.” said Tom String fellow. a wellknown employee of the Southern Railway, who lives at 126 East Ninth Street, Annis ton. Ala. Mr. Stringfellow is well known in railway circles and is on the Atlanta and Birmingham division. His many friends will be glad to hear of his complete restoration to health, “I suffered from stomach trou ble and indigestion for four years,” continued Mr. String fellow, “and got so I couldn’t eat hardly anything. I fell off until I only weighed, 119 pounds and finally got so weak and run down I was on the point of having to resign my position. To tell you the truth I just felt like life was not worth living because I just seemed to be getting worse all the time and nothing seemed to do me any good. “I would have awful pains in my back and kidneys and could hardly sleep. Two hours each night would be about all the sleep I would get. Most always after eating I would have gas on my stomach and my heart* would pal pitate, I would get weak in my limbs and have dizzy spells and would have spots in front of my eyes. “About a month ago I began reading about Tanlac, and heard the railroad men talking about it. Several of my friends had taken the medicine and said it was a fine thing for stomach trouble, so I decided to give it a trial. The first bottle helped me so much I kept on taking it and have just finished mv fifth bottle. When I weighed the other day I kicked the beam at 141 pounds, and was so surprised I turned around to see if someone was not standing on the scales. Yes, sir, that’s a fact, I had actually gained 22 pounds and feel like a well man again for the first time in four vears. “Tanlac helped me right from th" start, and before I had fin ished taking the second buttle I got so I would eat and sleep and work as good as anybody. That’s what the medicine did for me and everybody who knows me will tell you the same thing. Why, I can just eat anything now and indigestion never bothers me a particle anv more. I can sleep good, too, and feel just fine in every way. Speaking of eating, my grocery bills have gone up to almost double. “Just to show you what I think of the medicine I bought a dozen bottles today in order to always to have a supply on hand. I wouldn’t be without it for any thing in the world.” 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.

SATURDAY DAY OF FAIR MEETING * Several Business Matters to Be Considered CITY WILL CO-OPERATE Meeting in Court House at 10 O’clock Saturday--To Discuss Installation of Lights And Other Plans There will be a meeting of the Butts County Fair Association in the court house Saturday morn ing at 10 o’clock to discuss sev eral business matters. It is likely the fair grounds will be incorporated within the city limits, so as to secure adequate police protection, and for other reasons. The city of Jackson has been asked to co-operate with the as sociation and furnish lights dur ing fair week. It is thought this request will be granted by Coun cil, before whom the matter was laid Monday night. The various departments of the fair are in first class shape, and the prospects are bright for a most successful fair in October. Several details will be gone over at the session Saturday and a full attendance of the directors and members is urged.
