THIS WOMAN HAS GAINED 33 POUNDS Mrs. J. D. Morrison Declares She Is Now Well And Happy After an Illness of Three Years’ Standing. The phone rang at Morris’ drug store in Ensley, Alabama, recently, and when Mr. Allison, of the firm, answered, this is the message he received: “This is Mrs. J. D. Morrison at 1403 Avenue F. Ensley, and I want you to ask one of the Tan lac Company’s men to come to see me, for I want everybody to know what this medicine has done for me.” That same afternoon the local Tanlac representative called to see Mrs. Morrison at her home, when she made the following re markable 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 general decline. Nobody but people who have had this awful trouble know how I have suffered. “I tried doctors, I tried medi cine and tried everything, but nothing seemed to help me a par ticle. 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 e-et a good night’s sleep and was ner vous, feverish and restless most of the time. I also suffered dread fully from billiousness and con stipation, and was never free from pain night or day. * ‘The 2Gth of last March I was taken to the hospital and ope rated on for what was supposed to be female trouble, 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 you it is the fact. The operation didn’t do me any good as far as restoring my health was concerned. If any thing, I got worse and it just looked like I was going to die. “Finally I was told that my trouble was Tuberculosis of the bowels and 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 hear ing a lot of talk about the new medicine, 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 anyway, as they had al ready said they could do nothing more 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 bot tle and began improving right away. “After this I commenced eat ing 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, “My nerves got settled and I got so I could sleep good at night. Why, on the fourth alone I gained 7 pounds and the other day I ac tually weighed 99 pounds. Yes, sir, I went from 66 pounds to 99 pounds—that’s what Tanlac did for me. “I feel so much better and stronger I am now doing every bit of my work. I even do the washing and nothing seems to hurt me. Honestly, this Tanlac beats anything I ever saw in my life, and I would not give one bottle of it for all the other medi cines in Ensley and Birmingham put together. “I have just returned from a visit to my old home near Ala-« bama City, and it is an honest 1 fact that my own sisters did not know me at first. All around here my neighbors are wonder ing 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 Tan lac in my house, because I owe my life to this medicine.” Tanlac is sold in Mt Vernon exclusively by Mt. Vernon Drug Co.; in Tarrytown by C. W. War nock; in Ailey by Palmer Drug Co.; in Uvalda by W. M. Moses; in Alston by The Martin Drug Store; in Soperton by J. J. Mor ing; in Sharpe’s Spur by J. M. Smith, M. D. adv. Third Annual Fair at Savannah Began Nov. 13. Savannah, Ga., Nov. 7.—The Savannah Fair Association is pre paring to put on its third annual exhibit November 13 to 18 inclu sive.

November 16 has been selected as visitors’ day when the country people are ex pected here to return the visit of Savannahians at recent fairs in their respective districts. Warned Others, Himself Victim. Macon, Ga., Nov. 11. —W. B. Chapman, vice president of the Macon civil service commission and former chief of police, was so b.usy warning people at the state fair to look out for pick pockets that he became easy prey for one of the crooks, who re lieved him of sl4. i Mr. Chapman was on a crowd ed street car and noticing that there was considerable jostling about by the crowd, warned a number of those near him to keep their hand on their pocket books. When he alighted from the car he found that his own money was missing from his pocket. He has no idea how the pickpocket got it. Fair at Statesboro. Statesboro, Ga., Nov. 10. —A fair slated for Nov, 21 to 25 is being advertised to be held in Statesboro. A new city license of SSOO for shows and tented amusement enterprises which compelled a small circus sched uled to show in this city, Nov. 21, to go outside of the city limits has had the same effect upon the promoters of the fair propo sition. It is stated by the man agement that the greater disday of agricultural products and amusements now at the Georgia state fair at Macon will be brought to Statesboro and ex hibited throughout the five days. It is understood that a circuit is being planned for these exhibits, which will include Metter, Clax ton and other surrounding towns. Citation. Georgia—Montgomery County. Whereas, J. D.
