MRS. MAMIE HALL GAINS 19 POUNDS Was Sick In Bed For 11 Months and Only Weigh- { ed 96 pounds. Still another comes forward and adds her voice to the hun dreds who have already indorsed the wonderful medicine, Tanlac. Mrs. Mamie Hall, who lives at 805 Fourth Avenue, South, Nash ville, says she suffered for years and that the trouble was finally pronouced cancer of the stomach. She also states that she had fall en off as a result of the trouble until she weighed only 96 pounds, but she now weighs 115, a gain of 19 pounds. “I had a bad form of stomach trouble,” said Mrs. Hall in relat ing her remarkable case to a Tan lac representative, ‘‘and had suf fered from it for years. I lost so much flesh and was so weak that I was confined to my room and bed for eleven months and my head ached so bad I could hardly stand it at times. ‘‘Yes,” she continued, ‘‘they actually had to prop me up in bed to take a drink of water, as I just couldn’t help myself at all. I lived on maulted milk and Gra ham crackers. The steady pains in my chest made me afraid I had lung trouble and my head ached so bad it seemed like it would burst. ‘‘About a year ago I was taken to the hospital, the doctors say ing I had cancer of the stomach. I was so nervous all this time that the slightest noise would al most drive me mad, and the pains in my back hurt me so I hardly ever got a night’s rest. ‘‘My husband w'as terribly out of heart about me, as the doctor said nothing would save me but an operation. We had spent a lot of money for medicines and it seemed like nothing would do any good. ‘‘Well, sir, I happened to see a piece in the paper about Tanlac, and it told about a woman in Louisville that was suffering just exactly the same way I was. I begged my husband to let me try it and he said he had no faith in it, but he would get it if I want ed it. So he got a bottle and we kept it a secret from the doctor. ‘‘That was the best thing I ev er did in my life, for I began to feel better and gain weight with the very first dose. I had gone down so I didn’t weigh but 96 pounds, but now, after taking four bottles, I weigh 115—five pounds more than I ever weighed in my life. ‘‘l now feel strong and well and can do all my house work. I can eat anything—why, I actual ly ate a tomato after I had been taking Tanlac a week, and that’s something that never would agree with me before. I have no more of those terrible pains and I am doing fine in every way. ‘‘l got a letter yesterday from my husband at Chattanooga, and he said he had taken two bottles of Tanlac and was doing fine. I am going to Chattanooga Sunday, and I will sure take a bottle of Tanlac in my grip. This medi cine just about saved my life and kept me from having to have an operation. "Yes,” she continued, ‘‘you can print it. I want everybody .to know about it, I don’t think folks ought to be too modest to prevent all the suffering they can.” Surely this is a most convinc ing case of suffering and distress being alleviated by the use of a stomach corrective and tonic which relieves the condition that gives rise to so many different symptoms of deadly diseases. It is not claimed that Tanlac alone produces flesh. This great medi cine frees the system from poisons arising from the improper diges tion of the food and helps nature turn the food into strength and puts the body in good working or der. Then the body gains back its normal weight as naturally as water flows down stream. Tanlac is sold in Mt Vernon exclusively by Mt. Vernon Drug Co.; in Tarryt.own by C. W. War nock; in Ailey by Palmer Drug j Co.; in Uvalda by W. M. Moses; in Alston by The Martin Drug Store; in Soperton by J. J. Mur ing; in Sharpe’s Spur by J. M. j Smith, M. D. adv. # Decatur’s Tobacco to Bring in a Million. Bainbridge, Ga., July 21.—De catur county’s tobacco crop per haps surpasses in value the coun j ty’s cotton crop. While exact figures as to the acreage are not available, it is conservatively es timated that three thousand acres are in shaded tobacco this year. The average yield will surpass I, pounds to the acre, and in view of the excellent quality of the leaf this year, prices averag around 60 cents per pound will be received. In fact, a lot of the Florida growers around Quincy have already sold at 60 cents and better. On this basis Decatur county will receive more than $1,000,000 for her tobacco this year. Canning Clubs Coin Cash. The girls’ canning clubs of Anson county, N. C., have sold during the past year over 50,000 cans of vegetables and preserves, valued at $9,000, and with a prof it of $7,000. In addition to this, they sold over S6OO worth of fresh products. The country girl with her canning club is becom ing more and more a factor on the farm. If she continues to make 75 per cent profit from her work, we may look to her to keep the wolf from the door and lift the mortgage from the roof and lay the foundation of the family fortune.—Southern Farming. Parker Family Reunion. Ludowici, Ga., July 13. —The reunion of the Parker family of Liberty county was held yester day at the residence of J. Edgar Parker, near here.
