HENRY WARNER SAYS NE NOW FEELS FINE Well Known Nashville Man Suffered for Over a Year With Serious Indi gestion and Fell Off 80 Pounds. Nearly everybody in Nashville is either personally acquainted with or has heard of Henry War ner, the well-known Grocer and Meat Market man, whose place of business is located at 1612 Fourth Avenue, North. Mr. Warner is not only well and fav orably known in business circles, but enjoys the distinction of be ing one of the biggest men in Nashville as he formerly weighed 310 pounds in his stocking feet. Something over a year ago Mr. Warner lost his health and went into a rapid decline and, accord ing to his own statement, he lost 80 pounds in weight. In telling the Tanlac representative of his remarkable restoration to health by the use of Tanlac, Mr. War ner said: “About a year ago I began suffering from stomach trouble and nervous indigestion, and from January until November I couldn’t eat anything but a little toast and soft boiled eggs. At that time I weighed 310 pounds, and this trouble pulled me down until I only weighed 230. My health was completely shattered and I was almost a nervous and physical wreck. To tell you the truth, it just began to look like I was going to die, and that’s the way I felt about it, too. “I did everything a man could think of trying to get relief, but medicines, or dieting, or any thing else didn’t seem to do me any good, and I just kept going from bad to worse. No matter how carefully I dieted myself I would always suffer terribly with heart burn and gas on my stomach after eating. I would also have palpitation of the heart and severe headaches. At other times I would have burning pains in my stomach. I was also ner vous and restless and couldn’t sleep and sometimes when I would lay down I would get so dizzy I would almost go stone blind. “Finally I began taking Turk ish baths and long walks. This seemed to help me some, but nothing did anything more than give me temporary relief, and I had just about given up all hope of ever getting well. “About this time Alee Graves, a friend of mine, told me Tanlac had helped him and advised me to try it, so I got a bottle and commenced taking it. I got re lief right from the first and by the time I had finished my second bottle I felt so much better I went back and bought five more bottles. “I can now eat anything and have actually gained 80 pounds. I can also sleep well. In fact, I feel like a new man and am back at work again feeling better than I have in years. If I keep on gaining like I have for the past few weeks, 1 will soon be back to my old weight again. The change in my condition has been the talk of this whole part of town, and if I have had to tell one per son about Tanlac. I guess I have told a thousand. Everybody thinks it is nothing short of a miracle the way I have improved. “Tanlac has helped my wife a whole lot, too. She almost had a nervous breakdown from nursing me when I was sick, but Tanlac seemed to put her right on her feet and has done her a world of good.” Tanlac is sold in Mt Vernon exclusively by Mt. Vernon Drug Co.; in Tarry town 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. Mur ing; in Sharpe’s Spur by J. M.

ALL RACES CROWD ZANZIBAR East African City Is Easily One of the Most Cosmopolitan Places on the Earth. “When Zanzibar plays the flute half Africa dances.” says an old Arab prov erb. Zanzibar is not as important to day as it was when that saying was coined, but the island city is still dom inant over the trade of a vast stretch of territory. It lies just a few miles off the shores of what was, in July, 1914, German East Africa. The future name of the country and the future prosperity of Zanzibar both depend on the upshot of the little argument now being waged in Europe between Ger many and the allies. Zanzibar is now a British protectorate. It is not a beautiful town, though from over the water it has a certain exotic charm of its own. The sea is very clear and rich in tints of green and blue. The dense tropical vegeta tion through which the white houses of the city peep out, the vivid flares of color where some roof is covered with flowers, are more like an impressionist canvas than a city of wood and stone. Zanzibar does not improve on closer acquaintance, though. You land on a wide quay and fight your way through a small but energetic gathering of cu rio peddlers, who sell carved ebony, beaten silver, trinkets of ivory, wares from Japan and native sapphires. Then you plunge into closely packed Arab and native houses, with narrow, winding streets and a comprehensive assortment of smells. Zanzibar has a large assortment of everything. You see a dozen varieties of fruit that you never hoard of be fore. Natives and Europeans suffer from a long and diversified list of novel diseases. The commerce and industry of the town includes a little of everything. The people are the most varied of all. There are consuls from half a dozen countries, as the flapping flags attest. The English are hero in force, with the mixture of conventionality and ef ficiency that distinguishes thorn from Jamaica to Nairobi. There is a big Indian bazaar, very crowded and very dirty. Black natives from the main land abound, dressed in the cheap cot ton print called “mericani.” Many of tho local traders are Cingalese and men of Goa. Everywhere stalks the scornful Arab, surveying the populace with a sort of melancholy contempt, as though he still lived in those great days when Zanzibar was the strong hold of an Arabian empire. Old-Fashioned American Women. Not all American women are im possible idealists, weak sentimental ists, or members of “strict neutrality” leagues. These vociferous ladies have made such a noise that wo are apt to overlook that great majority of quiet ones, the descendants of those noble women who were ever ready to suffer and offer sacrifices in the cause of right and justice* as they saw it, in the Revolution, in the War of 1812 and in the Civil war. Somo of this brand of women have decided it is time that they organize and take some action for the honor and safety of their country, and so a society has been formed in New York “to arouse the women of America to a full realization of the necessity for immediate preparedness for war.” “If the war is ever to come,” they say "the mere instinct of self-preser vation directs that women, too, should bo prepared to defend American ideals of liberty, peace and honor.” That sort of sensible and patriotic talk is very refreshing amid all the flood of mushy and foolish clamor that we have been hearing from women.— Baltimore Sun. American Money In Spain. Dr. Charles W. A. Veditz, the United States commercial attache at Paris, has returned from Spain, where he made an extended investigation into the industrial and commercial situa tion, particularly with regard to op portunities for the investment of American capital and the attitude of the Spanish government and business world toward American enterprises in Spain. One of these is a proposed fast, di rect, electrically operated railroad from the French frontier to Madrid to su persede the present one, which fol lows a roundabout route and differs in gauge from that of the other Euro pean roads. It is announced that as a result of conferences one of the largest banks in New York is considering the pos sibility of establishing branch banks in Spain and also in Portugal. Dress Wounds With Powdered Sugar. Powdered sugar dressing for sup purating and contaminated wounds is receiving a thorough test in the Ger man army and has proved highly sat isfactory, according to Dr. F. Hercher, who reports to the Muenchner Medi zinische Wochensehift the experiences of himself and 50 other army surgeons in the use of it. He has used it in more than 1,000 cases. Doctor Hercher says that powdered sugar makes it unnecessary to rinse out or irrigate a wound, as it causes such a profuse oozing of fluid that the wound is copiously washed from with in. Its efficiency is due mainly to its stimulation of secretion, and this di lutes and washes away the pus. The Changeful Sex. The Captain—Dashed curious thing, Peters —women living longer than men. The Chemist —Speaking from ex perience. sir, I should say that women are dyeing much younger than they did. —London Opinion. *c«««e*4fte«ift<e«fs«ei*e«e<ee«e»eMe«e««ieM«ee*e«B 9 S | Syracuse S ■UI ' " I Plows •* a 8 a S » And Parts I I Stand for Service w a I 1 * a j a J I Wise Farmers Use Them | a ! a | a j !
