HAS NO MORE NEED
FOR CRUTCHES NOW
P. G. Hooks Spent $2,000
Trying to Restore His
Wife’s Health —Gains 16
Pounds on Tanlac.
Another wonderful indorse
ment for Tanlac that will be read
with interest by thousands of
frail, suffering women through
out the south was given recently
by Mrs. Elizabeth Hooks, of
Rome, Ga. Mrs. Hooks is the
wife of P. C. Hooks* a well
known Southern railway engi
neer. Mrs. Hooks made the re
markable statement that she had
received more benefit from four
bottles of Tanlac than from med
ical treatment that had cost her
husband $2,000, which he had
paid out in the past two years in
an effort to restore her health.
“For about two years,” said
Mrs. Hooks, “I have been in
very bad health and have suffer
ed from stomach trouble, extreme
nervousness and a bad form of
rheumatism. For more than
seven months I was confined to
my bed and was almost a ner
vous and physical wreck. My di
gestion was so poor I had to diet
myself and rarely ate anything
but soft boiled eggs and milk and
things of that kind, and even the
lightest of foods would nauseate
me and lay heavily on my
stomach.
“Any sudden noise would af
fect my nerves, and my husband
had to quit setting the alarm
clock and the door to my room
had to be kept closed so I could
not hear the ringing of the tele
phone. I have had the rheuma
tism in my left hip and shoulders
so bad I could hardly bear any
thing to touch me.
“My condition became so bad,
my husband took me to Hot
Springs, Ark., where I remained
for a month. I had to use
crutches all the time. The treat
ment there helped me for a while,
and I returned home. I soon re
lapsed into my old condition, and
then I was taken to a specialist
in Atlanta.
“I had fallen off from one
hndred and twenty pounds until
I only weighed eighty-nine
pounds—just a shadow of my
former self.
“The specialist prescribed a
course of treatment, but before
using the medicine I decided to
give Tanlac a trial. I did this
because of what I had read of
Mr. Cooper’s new medicine and
because my husband had heard
so many railroad men recom
mend it.
“That w'as the best resolution
of my life. I am now on my
fourth bottle and feel better than
at any time since I became ill.
I can now eat anything I want,
and my food agrees with me—
besides, everything I eat tastes
good and I enjoy my meals.
“I have set my crutches aside
and actually feel so much better
I told my husband a few days
ago I belived I would turn off the
cook, but he insisted that I wait
awhile.
“I now weigh one hundred and
five pounds, which is a gain of
sixteen pounds, and am improv
ing right along every day. Be
fore taking Tanlac I was so weak
and frail I was greatly dis
couraged and could not persuade
myself to believe that I would
ever be able to enjoy another
well day. But I don’t feel that
way now. lam not nervous like
I was, and I can see and feel a
great improvement. I sleep bet
ter and my strength is returning
rapidly.”
Tanlac is sold in Mt. Vernon
exclusively by Mt. Vernon Drug
Co.; in Tarrytown by J. J.
Frost, successor to C. W. War
nock; in Ailey by Palmer Drug
Co.; in Uvalda by W. M. Moses;

A.
To the Superior Court of Mont
gomery February adjourned term
1917. We the Grand Jury select
ed and sworn to serve as such as
of said court beg to make the fol
lowing presentments: That I. H.
Hall, Jr., be appointed and he is
hereby appointed as the person
to act as county Treasurer of and
for the said county of Montgom
ery, to begin the performance of
his duties as such immediately
under and by terms of the Act of
the General Assembly of Georgia,
approved August 16th, 1915. This
appointment having been made
upon the refusal and failure by
the commissioners of roads and
revenues of said county to per
form the duties set forth in said
act, and the said I. H. Hall, Jr.,
being duly aopointed as afore
said to perform and discharge all
the duties devolving upon said
commissioners of roads and reve
nues under the provisions of said
act.
Respectfully submitted and ap
proved by the body of this Grand
Jury and the Hon. E. D. Gra
ham, Judge.
B.
We have examined the jail in a
body and find it in good sanitary
condition except some repairs,
which are badly needed on the
building and we recommend that
the necessary repairs be put on
same at once,
C.
We recommend that Mrs. Den
nison be paid $7.00 per month as
pauper.
D.
We recommend that the next
Representative to the next Leg
islature enact a law and repeal
the present law so that the coun
ty commissioners be elected by
the common people instead of by
the Grand Jurors.
E.
Whereas, owing to the fact
that agitation during several
years on account of the efforts to
create the proposed Treutlen
county, which has divided the
people of the county into factions
which is detrimental to the best
interest of the county.
Whereas, Montgomery county
will be much better shaped geo
graphically after the proposed
Treutlen county portion is cut
off, which is so remotely situated
to the county seat, and
Whereas, believing tfye creation
of the proposed Truetlen county
to the best interest of both sec
tions of both involved. We the
Grand Jurors chosen for the Feb
ruary term, 1917, Montgomery
county superior court recommend
and urge our Representative in
the next Legislature, Geo. M. !
Barwick, as well as our Senator |
from this district and all other
members use their best efforts to
create the said new county of
Treutlen.
Resolved, That a copy of this
recommendation be furnished our
Representative elect and our Sen
ator elect.
It having come to our know
ledge that at several places in
our county Jamaica ginger is be
ing sold and drunk as a beverage
resulting in constant drunken
ness. We therefore request that
all citizens desist in further sales
of said drink, and we further
recommend and direct that the
Solicitor General at the next term
of this court present to the Grand
Jury anyone who may sell said
drink in our county after the pub
lication of these presentments, as
we are advised that the same is a
violation of the prohibition law.
It also comes to our knowledge
that certain slot machines being
operated in the county are in
violation of the gaming laws of
our state. We recommend to
the citizens operating the same
that they cease to do so and up
on their failure the Solicitor Gen
eral is directed to present all par
ties who may operate said ma
chines after the publication of
these presentments to the next
