PROMINENT BANKERS
COME OUT FOB TANLAC
Two Well-Known Bankers of the South Volun
tarily Write Strong Letters of Indorsement to
Tanlac Office at Atlanta on the Same Day
Telling What It Had Done for Them.
/"'\N MARCH 7th personal letters from prominent bankers in two south
ern states were received at the Tanlac office. These, like hundreds
of thousands of other communications that have been pouring in with
every delivery of the mail for the past year or more, express the writers’
high appreciation of the merits of Tanlac, as proven by their own expe
rience with it.
The first letter quoted comes
through Eli W. Goode, druggist and
local agent for Tanlac at Hawkins
ville, Georgia, containing the state
ment of E. J. Henry, president of the
Hawkinsville Bank and Trust company,
which is one of the best known finan
cial institutions in that part of the
state. His letter follows, just as it
was written:
“Hawkinsville, Georgia, March 5, 1917.
“Mr. G. F. Willis, Atlanta, Georgia.
“Dear Sir: Mr. E. J. Henry, presi
dent of the Hawkinsville Bank and
Trust Company, came into my store a
few days ago and said:
“ ‘Eli, sell me another bottle of Tan
lac.’
“I said ‘All right, Mr. Henry. What
do you really think of Tanlac?’ His
reply was so commendable to the vir
tues of the medicine, that I asked him
if he would give me a signed state
ment about it. He said ‘yes, of course
I will,’ and this is his statement:
“ ‘Last spring I was all wrong some
way or other, and couldn’t get right.
I came to you and bought a bottle of
Tanlac and began to improve. Two
more bottles put me all right, and I
felt perfectly well. A few weeks ago
I had the grippe and was beginning
to get down and out again, and about
a week ago I bought another bottle
and have taken it and am perfectly
well again.
“ ‘I unhesitatingly recommend Tan
lac to anyone who is sick and worn
out, as I believe that if anybody will
take Tanlac when they first begin to
feel bad it will prevent and keep off
sickness. It certainly is a great rem
edy.
(Signed)
“ ‘E. J. HEXRY, President,
“ ‘Hawkinsville Bank and Trust Co.’ ”
The other letter referred to comes
from the cashier of the Hornbeck

Old Looks?
(BY DR. L. H. SMITH)
Persons suffering from too much uric
acid in the system-frequently look older
than they should. They age faster and
the appearance of gray hair or bald
head in early years is, indeed, often a
sign of uric acid. The face appears
lean and haggard, lines and wrinkles
appearing in young men or women.
The best way to combat this prema
ture age and the obstruction to the
arteries and faulty circulation is of the
simplest: Drink copiously of pure water
between meals. This will not make
you fat, as it is only the water taken
with the meals that fattens. Obtain at
any drug store a package of Anuric,
double strength, which is to be taken
before meals, in order to expel the uric
acid from the system. The painful ef
fects of backache, lumbago, rheuma
tism. gout, due to uric acid in the blood
should quickly disappear after treat
ment with Anuric.
at Hornbeck, La., and is as follows:
“Hornbeck, Louisiana, March 5, 1917.
“Mr. G. F. Willis, Atlanta, Georgia.
“Dear Sir: I wish to say that I have
taken five (9) bottles of Tanlac and
have gained fifteen (15) pounds in
three weeks. I think it is a great
medicine.

“Bank of Hornbeck, Hornbeck, La.”
It is nothing unusual for men of
prominence to endorse Tanlac, as over
twenty-five thousand endorsements
have been given Tanlac within the
past year alone. These endorsements
have come from people representing
practically every walk of life, includ
ing Bankers. Lawyers, Judges, Doc
tors, prominent Government, State and
County officials, prominent men of af
fairs, etc., but it is a noteworthy fact
that in this particular instance two
well-known bankers of the South have
on the same day voluntarily written
an expression of their gratitude for
publication, telling what Tanlac has
done for them.
In this connection one of the best
known newspaper publishers of the
South recently said:
“I know that there are at least a
thousand people in this city who
would be glad to endorse Tanlac,” and
what is true of that city is true of
practically every other city of the
South and West; in fact, throughout
the entire country wherever this med
icine has been sold.
The fame and popularity of Tanlac,
as everyone knows, has swept over the
whole country like wildfire and is now
a household word from coast to coast.
Although placed on the market a
little over two years ago over seven
million bottles have already been sold,
and the demand is constantly increas
ing.

town. —Adv.

SIIP OF FIGS FOR
II CHILIS PELS
It is cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.
Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the “dose” mother insisted
on —castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don’t realize what they
do. The children's revolt is well-found
ed. Their tender little “insides” are
injured by them.
If your child’s stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious “California Syrup of Figs.” Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless “fruit
laxative” handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
en the stomach, and that a teaspoonlul
given today saves a sick child tomor
row.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle
of “California Syrup of Figs,” which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-lips plainly
on each bottle. Adv.

MARDIE’S EFFICIENCY
By JANE OSBORNE.
The sight of one of those collapsible
kitchen cabinets always filled Martin
with strange, inexpressible longings.
There was just enough of the house
wifely in his thoroughly masculine
make-up to make him feel convinced
that, were he a woman, there would
be deep content in making biscuits and
bread and cake and pies in front of one
of tbSse devices, with the neat little
rows of spice boxes all ranged most
conveniently to hand, where sugar and
flour could be measured out in cup
fuls and sifted at the simple turn of
a lever and where all the dishes thnt
anyone might need for cooking for two
were within easy reach. And at the
department store that Martin passed
every night on his way home from
business, there was a whole window
full of those tempting, soul-disturbing
cabinets, ranging from little oak ones
at $19.74 to white enameled affairs at
$99.69. A woman stood beside him
looking longingly at them, too, and as
Martin saw her he sighed. If Mardie
only liked kitchen cabinets.
After Martin had indulged his dream
for housewifely joy in this fashion,
dinner at the boarding house, to which
he always brought a strong, brave ap
petite, seemed less sufficient and less
satisfying than ever.
That night as Mardie was sitting
reading—re-reading, of course—one of
Ibsen’s plays Martin, as usual, was
buried in the evening paper. But his
longings pursued him even there. For
there, spread over a half page of the
evening paper, was an advertisement of
those tantalizing kitchen cahinets with
cuts almost as tempting as the cabi
nets themselves and a column of de
scription of all their virtues.
He felt Mardie’s eyes on him and,
he heard just the suggestion of a sob.
“What’s the matter? Aren’t you
happy?” Martin soothed. After Mar
die’s sobs there had been the tempest
of Mardie’s tears and then came the
soothing of them. “I’m so glad you
asked that,” Mardie brightened, “be
cause I’m not just exactly happy and
I didn't want to have to tell you. I’ve
been making plans—and you are al
ways so busy with that horrid old pa
per and the stock quotations and the
real estate reports—l saw you reading
those reports this very minute —that I
never get time to tell you. Even if
I am a woman,” she went on, “there is
no reason why I should not be an in
dustrial factor. There is no reason
why I should not become efficient;
there is no reason why I should be a
parasite—” To Martin all this sound-'
ed deadly familiar. He had heard it
lots of times before and he could en
dure no more.
“I know,” he murmured. “I’ve heard
that (lope before.”
“But not just this,” Mardie persist
ed. “You see industrial conditions
have changed woman’s position—”
Martin dropped his head in his
hands peevishly. “Oh, don’t,’V he was
almost tierce as he spoke. “Don’t go
into details. What put that sort of
thing into your head, anyway?”
“Yesterday I went to a conference
of the Woman’s College club.”
“Lord!” Martin was one of the men
who believed that he disliked all col
lege women on principle. “Cut that
out. I don’t want to hear it.”
Mardie’s tears were dry. “Well,
since you won’t listen to explanations,”
she said with hauteur, “there won't be
any. I want to take a course at col
lege. I feel that my education has
been neglected. I want to become ef
ficient. I want to —” She was trying
to explain again.
“Not with my money you can’t take
a college course,” was Martin’s ver
dict. “You know my prejudice.”
“Nobody said anything about your
money,” snapped the wife. The fact
that she had never spoken in that tone
before made it all the more cutting,
now that it came. “I may be poor,
but I’m not a pauper. I’ve got a few
hundred dollars in the bank and I’ll
use that and ask no questions. I was
going to explain—but you wouldn’t
understand.”
This took place one evening in Sep
tember just when the law classes at
the university were forming. And be
cause Mardie was gone from home five
or six hours every day, Martin knew
that she had kept her threat. If she
ever studied at home, the books were
always well concealed in the evening
and Mardie’s conversation betrayed
nothing of the subject on which her
mind must be dwelling during the
hours oi the day. One day in May he
found a letter on his desk. He opened
it. “Department of Household Arts”
was the heading on the folded sheet
within. “The honor of your company
is requested at a luncheon to be given
Saturday at one o’clock by the gradu
ating class In household management.
The luncheon is to be prepared and
served entirely by members of the
class.”
When he reached the domestic sci
ence laboratory at the university five
minutes ahead of time, no Mardie was
to be seen.
The Instructor of the class was there
to greet the guests.
"Oh, yes, Mr. Stone. So glad to
meet you,” she was saying after he
had inquired for his wife. “She will
be in presently, but she is so capable
that she is in charge of the luncheon.
That Is what delays her in the kitchen.
Did she tell you that next year we are
going to make room for her as a part
time lecturer? Mr. Stone, you are
such a fortunate man to have a wife
who Is so home-loving.”

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of a neglected
scalp; of dandruff—that awful scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair
of its luster, its strength and its very
life; eventually producing a feverish

if not remedied causes the hair roots

the first application your hair will
take on that life, luster and luxuriance
which is so beautiful. It will become
