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.

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.
