Accidentally
A sad death, was that of Mr.
John W. Pankey, who accidental¬
ly shot and killed himself
day m r, rning of last week
at his home in Ridgeway district.
Mr Pankey was feeding the
hogs and using the stock of his
gun to punch a dog off from
where the hogs were eating, the
hammer caught in a twig, and
discharged the whole load into his
stomach, tearing it out, and died
that night about eight o’clock. He
was about 35 years of age and a
son of Mr. VVylie Pankey and
was one of Gilmer’s most up¬
right citizens, being an honest,
working man, and his sudden
death will be a shock to his many
friends.
He leaves a wife and several
children, besides numbers of
other relatives to whom we ex
tend sympathy

HENRY WARNERSAYS
HE NOW FEELS FINE
Well-Known Nashville Man
Suffered for Over a Year
With Serious Indigestion
and Fell Off 80 Pounds.
Nearly everybody in Nashville
is either personally acquainted ;
with or heard of Henry Warner.
thp the well well known known Grocer urocer and ana Meat Meat,
Market man, whose piace of busi -1
ness is located at Iol2 Fourth
Avenue, North. Mr. Warner is
not only well and favorably known
in business circles, but enjoys the
distinction of being one of the
biggest men in Nashville as he
formerly weighed 310 pounds in
his stocking feet. I
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 tell¬
ing the Tanlac representative of
his remarkable restoration to
health by the use of Tanlac, Mr.
Warner said:
“About a year ago I began suf¬
fering from stomach trouble and
nervous indigestion, and from
January until November I could
not 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. Mv health
was completely shattered and I
was almost a nervous and physi. j
ca' wreck. Tote'lihe truth, it
just began to look like 1 was
going to die, and that’s thte way
I felt about it, too.
“I did everything a man could
think of trying to get relief, but
medicines, or dieting, or anything
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
bnrn and gas on my stomach
after eating. I would also have
palpitation of the heart, severe
headaches. At-other times I
would have burning pains in my
stomach. I was also nervous and
restless and couldn’t sleep and
sometimes when I would lay down
I would get so dizzy I would al¬
most go stone blind.
“Finally I began taking Turk¬
ish baths and long walks. This
to help me some, but
did anything more than
me temporary relief, and I
just about given up all hope
ever getting well.
“About this time Alee Graves,
friend of mine, told me Tanlac
helped him and advised me
try it, so I got a bottle and
taking it. I got re¬
right from the first and by
time I had finished my sec
bottle I felt so much better I

Richard B. Russell ✓' ~
Candidate for Congress
Ninth Congressional District X
Judge Russell is one of the people, liis heart beats true to (heir In¬
terest. His whole record proves this to ho true. Ilis ability in debate is
unquestioned. He asks the privilege of making a light for ihe grand old
Ninth Congressional district for equality in 1 lie distribution of the money
which you help to pay to the national treasury. He stands for government
highways in the mountain counties, and contends that drainage of un¬
healthful streams should be at the expense of the government instead
of as a burden upon the already over-bnrdemd taxpayers. He rsl.s the
honor of standing in the place once filled by Ben 11 ill and asking that
the unclaimed cotton money taken from our people and lying in the treasury
be used to pension all Confederate soldiers just as the Federal soldiers
are pensioned. He is for a real rural credit bill under which money
can be obtained by the farmer directly from the government. He is
in favor of legislation which will effect a complete separation of church
ami state. He is for a navy large enough to protect the commerce of
the nation and powerful enough to enable the southern farmer to sell his
cotton, corn and other products at the highest price to whomsoever and
whensoever lie can find the best buyer, without regard to the policies or
interest of any foreign nation. He is in favor of more rural n ates and
better postal facilities for the people of the^ Ninth Congressional district,
and ail extension of the parcels post system, as well as a reduction of
the fees. He favors a large increase in the percentage assessed as income
tax oil the millionaire class, so as to lighten the burden of those not
so fortunate as to be millionaires.
Your vote, your influence, any kind word you may have occasion to
say for Russell will be gratefully appreciated and Russell will give faithful
service in return for the high honor of representing the greatest Anglo
Saxon constituency on earth.
