Los Angeles Woman Tells of Wonderful Experience. {ygEag - m %, S.'**, MRS. GUSSIE E. HANSEN. Mrs. Gussie E. Hansen, of 916 West 52nd Street, is now numbered with the multitude of Los Angeles men and women who have realized the wonder ful merits of Tanlac. In relating her experiences, Mrs. Hansen said: “It is wonderful what Tanlac will do for one suffering from stomach trou ' ble, nervousness and run-down con dition. I have tried it. “Before taking the treatment every thing I ate disagreed with me so that 1 1 actually dreaded to sit down to the table. I suffered from constipation, had awful pains across my back, and was so nervous and run down I was in mis ery all the time. “Tanlac was helping so many others I thought it might help me, too, and it certainly has. Why, my appe tite is just splendid, and my stomach is in such good order I eat to my heart’s content. My back doesn’t bother me any more, and I sleep like a child at night. I can’t say too much for Tanlac.” Tanlac is for sale by all good drug gists—take no substitute. Over 37 mil lion bottles sold. More spinsters might marry if other women didn’t marry so often. Could See Big Change in Baby From the First “I could see a big change for the better in baby right from the first when I began giving him Teethina; he grew quieter, his stomach pains left off and now he is as fat and healthy a child as you please,” writes Mrs. Maude Neighbors, 1638 W. 4th St., Texarkana, Texas. When baby is restless and fretful from teething or a disordered stom ach nothing will bring such quick re lief as Teethina. It contains nothing that can harm the most delicate child, but soothes and allays distress inci dent to teething and colicky condi tions. Teethina is sold by leading drug gists or send 30c to the Moffett Lab oratories, Columbus, Ga., and receive a full size package and a free copy of Moffett’s Illustrated Baby Book.— (Advertisement.)

J Another method which | adds variety is to toss the cooked stalks in but ter in a hot frying pan, then spread with butter and grated cheese and brown under the gas flame. Hollandaise sauce is also delicious with cooked asparagus. Cream of as paragus soup is one of the most de licious of all cream soups. Served with a spoonful of whipped cream on top of each bowl, with a sprinkling of minced chives or finely shredded al monds, the soup is par excellence. Cooked stalks thrust through a ring of pepper or tomato and served with rich mayonnaise (a spoonful placed on the side of the salad plate), makes a de lightful salad. Rhubarb is one of uur early fruits. It Is especially good for the system and blends well with other fruits as drinks.

There is no food more healthful for young and old than the fresh, juicy fruits. j't ttu $- HENRY COUNTY WEEKLY.

They had Just bad a very good meal, and they had not been given too much. “It Is strange," said Mr. Pekin Baxter, “but there are many people who feed their “It Is Surpris- gold fishes too ing.” much. I hear the friends of our mistress talking, and they ask her such absurd questions. “They say: ‘lf the fishes leave food untouched which you’ve given to them It shows you’ve given them too much, doesn't It?’ “‘You don’t jvant to give them so much that they could possibly leave any untouched, and the way to do that Is to give them very, very little. “‘Cold fishes have small stomachs; they’re not taking great long swims and lots of exercise, and they shouldn’t be fed too much.’ “Yes, that is what our mistress tells her friends.’’ “And that Is right, too," said Mr. Toklo Jones. “It is strange how Ig norant people are about feeding gold fishes and how many of them think that as long as the gold fishes eat up all their food they’ve been given the right amount! “Dear me, It Is surprising how Ig norant people are.” “Well," said Mr. Pekin Baxter, “It Is true that people can’t read our thoughts—what few ones we have to read —and they can’t tell unless they know just how much gold fishes want to eat, for people haven’t the tastes of gold fishes, nor have they the stomachs of gold fishes, nor have they the wishes of gold fishes." “Nor," said Mr. Toklo Jones, waving a fin, and grinning a funny grin, “are they gold fishes!” “Well,” said Mr. Pekin Baxter, “I’m glad when news about gold fishes Is spread about, for we don’t want to get sick, and our relations don’t mean to be greedy, “When our little mistress does not seem to be w ell the doctor comes, and he says, ‘Stick out your tongue,’ and then he usually says: “‘Ah, just what I thought! Yes, a little tonic will do you good.’ “Or perhaps he says, ‘Some medicine Is what you need, and then you’ll be all right.’ “A tongue is most important to some, for it seems to be an excellent thing in its way of showing whether a per son is well or not.” “Yes,” agreed Mr. Tokio Jones, “with people a tongue is important; or, per haps I should say, many tongues are Important, for they all have one apiece.” "But with us it Is different,” said Mr. Pekin Baxter. "We need our dor sal fins. They are all important; or, perhaps I should say, each one of us has a dorsal fin and It Is very Important. “I think, per haps, that Is the correct way to speak. “Some may not know what the dorsal fin Is, but If they will look at you or me, or at any of the mem bers of our fam ily, they will see a fin which Is spread up on top of our backs. It is a fine, straight, healthy-looking fin when we are well, but w hen we’re sick that fin droops and does not stay out nice and smooth. “So people can tell if the gold fish is well b; the way his dorsal fin or the fin upon his back looks, “So let the people have their tongues —they need them —but let the fishes have their dorsal fins. “My dorsal fin is not wrinkled up—it looks like a handsome, outspread fan, and that shows I’m healthy, and yours is the same way, Tokio, and so you’re healthy, too.
