THE CORDELE DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY,'AUGUST 2, 1916.
THIS WOMAN EAINS
a 0 LAS. ON TANLAC
MRS. J. D. MORRISON DECLARES
SHE IS NOW WELL AND HAPPY
AFTER LONG ILLNESS.
The phone rang at Morris’ drug
store in Ensley, Alabama, recently,
and when Mr. Allison, of the firm, an
swered, this is the message he receiv
ed:
“This is Mrs. J. D. Morrison at 1403
Avenue F, Ensley, and I want you to
ask one of the Tanlac Company’s men
to came to see me, for 1 want every
body to know what this medicine has
done for me.”
That same afternoon the local Tan
lac representative called to see Mrs.
Morrison at her home, when she made
the following remarkable statement:
“Three years ago I lost my health
and have been sick ever since. 'I had
chronic stomach trouble of the worst
kind and just seemed to go into a gen
aral decline. Nobody but people who
have had this awful trouble know how
I have suffered.
“I tried doctors, I tried medicine and
tried everything, but nothing seemed
to help me a particle. I tried dieting
and lived on liquid foods, raw eggs and
things like that until I almost starved,
but even that failed to relieve my
trouble.
“I lost all the strength I had and was
a nervous wreck. I never knew what
it was to get a good night’s sleep and
was nervous, feverish and restless
most of the time. I also suffered dread
fully from billiousness and constipa
tion, and was never free from pain
night or day.
“The 26th of last March I was taken
to the hospital and operated on for
what was supposed to be female trou
ble, and when I left the hospital I was
nothing but a living skeleton and only
weighed 66 pounds. That is the truth,
and everybody who knows me will tell
yau it is a fact. The operation didn’'t
do me any good as far as restoring my
health was concerned. If anything I
got worse and it just looked like I was
going to die.
“Fnally I was told that my trouble
was Tuberculosis of the bowels apd
that I had better stay out in the fresh
air all I could, as nothing else could
be done for me.
“About that time I began hearing o
lot of talk about the ne wmedicine,
Tanlac and read a great deal in the
papers what different people had to
say about it. Something- just seemed‘
to tell me it was what I needed, al
though the doctor didn’t think so, but‘
I told him I was going to try it any
way, as they had' already said they
.could do nothing for me. ‘
“The first bottle didn’t do me much
good as far as I could tell, but that
‘didn't dishearten me, for I knew it
would take time in my case, so I got
;the second bottle and began improving
right away.
“After this I commenced eating and
my appetite increased every day. By
the time I had taken three bottles I
was able to eat whatever I liked and
gained flesh and strength right along.
/ “M)‘ nerves got settled and 1 got
so I could sleep good at night. Why
on the fourth bottle I gained 7 pounds
and the other day I actually weighed
99 pounds. Yes, sir, I went from 66 to
99 pounds—that’s what Tanlac did for
me.
“I feel so mugh better and stronger
[ am now doing every bit of my work.
[ even do the washing and nothing
seems to hurt me. Honestly, this Tan
lac beats anything I ever saw in my
life, and I would not give one bottle
of it for all the other medicines in
Ensley and Birmingham put together.
“l have just returned from a visit to
qniy old home near Alabama City, and
it is an honest fact that my own sis
ters did not know me at first. All about
here my neighbors are” wondering
what on earth I have found to put me
on my feet again, for they had given
‘me up'to die months ago.
} “Never as long as I.live will I ever
be without a bottle of Tanlac in my
‘house, because I owe my life to this
i medicine.”
Tanlac is sold in Cordele by J. B.

CORDELE PEOPLE
GET INSTANT ACTION
Those who have used it in Cordele
are astonished at the INSTANT action
of simple buckthorn bark, glycerine,
etc., as mixed in Alder-i-ka. Because
it acts on BOTH lower and upper bow
el, ONE SPOONFUL Adler-i-ka re
lieves almost ANY CASE eonstipation,
sour stomach or gas. It removes such
surprising foul matter that a few dos
es often relieve or prevent appendici
tis. A short treatment helps chronic
stomach trouble. A. M. Stead, druggist.

DEUTSCHLAND’S COMMANDER
IS HANDICAPPED
Washington, July 31.—Although the
United States government declines to
order extraordinary protection for the
Deutschland as she goes out of the
United States territorial waters, state
department officials indicated today
that if her submarine is endangered
in the bay, a coast guard cutter prob
ably will interfere.
It is understood the Deutschland’s
commander fears he will be handi
capped in his efforts to escape the Al
lied warships, if feollowed by press
ships and sightseers.
Acting Secretary Polk announced
that the treasury department would
consider supervising the su‘umarine:‘s
departure under the same authority
that it provides patrols for congested
yacht race ‘courses.
Secretary Daniels said today that
no more warships would be as
signed to neutraiity duty off the Vir
ginia coast.
RECEIVER TO TAKE
OVER CAMILLA BANK
Thamasville, Ga., July 31.—The
Stockholders of the Mitchiell county
bank at Camilla, which closed down
last week, have decided to put it into
the hands of a receiver rather than to
attempt to straighten out its affairs.
At a meeting of the stockholders state
bank examiner, Arnold, was present
and submitted his report of the con
dition of the bank and suggested the
remedies necessary to rehabilitate it.,
The liabilities of the bank were
shown to be about $45,000 and the as
sets about $65,000, making it appear
solvent. The capital stock has been
impaired to the extent of about $22,-
000. Practically all of the bank's col
lateral was held by other banks to
secure borrowed money and some of
these loans are.now due..
