Corsets and Corset Service
A GOOD Corset is only one element of cornet
satisfaction; the other is its proper fitting.
It is essential, therefore, that you should pur
chase your corset in a store that is prepared to
render the highest degree of corset service; a
store in which the corsetiere is familiar wi‘h
every phase of the art of curset fitting.
In this store you have the JUL
services of Miss McLendon,
who is a graduate of the
GOSS ARD TRAINING
SC HO >L, of Chicago, 111., a X.
and vv ho has taken,recently ZZ. ( \

The Corset 1 fl
It is stiange, but true, that W J
no two women will put on a Mr-’V
their corset in the same JkA\ \
manner. One is careful \
while the othe» is not. Cer
tain rules should I e follow- ’C
ed, but there is no rule ylf OlvOl
without an exception. Much W1 Jaff Vk
depends on your figure and
the corset you wear.
If you’ll come in, oui corsetiere will explain in
detail, just how you should put on and lace your
corset, and also how to take it off.
You should, by all means, have a new model
corset before having you Spring suit or Gown
fitted.
The Spring Models in Gossard and Warn
er’s are readt). Phone Miss McLendon
for an engagement.

INDORSES TANLAG
One of the latest additions to the
| list of leaders of thought and action
who have come forward with their
unqualified indorsement of Tanlac is
the name of Hon. Frank V. Evans, for
mer Mayor of Birminghafa, Ala., ex-
State Examiner of Public Accounts of
Alabama, and one-time editor of one
of the South’s greatest newspapers—
The Birmingham Age-Herald.
Writing to a personal friend in At
lanta, Mr. Evans says:
‘Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 2, 1916.
“ . . .By the way, you will hard’.v
know me when we meet again because
I am getting well and strong again.
As I told you while in Atlanta last
month, I have been suffering a long
time with gastritis, as the doctors call
it, really a disordered stomach, with
consequent constipation, pains in the
shoulders, headache, belching, heart
burn, loss of appetite, loss of sleep anl
fainting spells. For weeks I could not
sleep on my back.
“One week ago upon recommenda
tions of friends , who had tried the
medicine, I purchased one bottle of
Tanlac, and began taking it. Since
my second dose I have suffered none
of these troubles to which I refer, and
really believe I am going to get per
fectly well and strong again. Won t
that be wonderful at my age? Well,
certain it is that Tanlac is a wonder
ful medicine and you know that I
am not given to ‘puffing’ mere experi
ments and am rather orthodox as to
materia medica.
"I shall continue the treatment witii
perfect confidence in the final re
sults ....
(Signed) FRANK V. EVANS.”
Commenting on this splendid in
dorsement of Tanlac, G. F. Will’s,
Southern Distributor of Tanlac, said:
“Although the list of prominent in
dorsers is a long one, I recall a few
leading names that lent! both dignity
ard credit to the entire array. Some
cf them are:
“Hon. C. W. Mangum, of Atlanta.
Sheriff of Fulton County; Hon. Mc-
Kenzie Moss, Judge of the Eighth Dis
trict of Kentucky; Hon. Moses R.
Glenn, Superintendent of Printing for
the State of Kentucky; Col. Jno. B.
Gaines, Editor and Publisher, Bowling
Green, Ky.; Mr. C. C. Cooper, Presi
dent Georgia Cotton Oil Co.; Mr. H.
W. Hill, Bank President of South
Pittsburg, Tenn.; Mr. J. F. Carroll,
Cotton Mill Superintendent of Chatta
hoochee, Ga.; Hon. S. S. Shepherd, ex-
City Councilman of Atlanta, and many
others whose names have heretofore
been given to the public.”
Tanlac is sold by leading druggists
in all principal cities of the South.
Tanlac is sold exclusively in Ameri
cus by Allen’s Drug & Seed Store; in
Leslie by Leslie Drug Company, and
in Plains, Ga., by Plains Pharmacy,
