J. L. PENDLEY Athens, - - Phone 296 - - Georgia 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 indorsement for Tanlac that will be road with inter¬ est by thousands of frail, suffering women throughout the south, was giv en recently by Mrs. Elizabeth Hooks, of Rome, Ga. Mrs. Hooks is the wife of P. ,C. Hooks, a well known Southern railway engineer. Mrss. Hooks made the remarkable state¬ ment that she had received more benefit from four bottles of Tanlac than from medical treatment that had cost her husband $2,000, which he had (paid out in the past t |o year, in an effort to restore her health. “For about two years,” said Mrs. Hooks, “I have been in very bad health and have suffereed from Stom¬ ach trouble, extreme nervousness and a bad form of rheumatism, F o r more than seven months I was con¬ fined to my bed and was almost •a nervous ant! physical wreck, My digestion 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 an<F lay heavily on my stomach. “Any sudden noise would affect my nerves, and my husband had to quit setting the alarm dock and the door to my room had to be kept clos e3 so I could not bear the ringing of the telephone. I have had the rheu¬ matism in my left hip and shoulders so bad I could hardly bear anything to touch me. “My condition became so bad, my husband took me to Hot Springs, Ark., where f remained for a month. I had to use crutches all the time. The treatment 'there helped me for a while, and I returned home. I soon relapsed into my old condition, and then I was taken to a specialist in Atlanta. “I had fallen off from one hun¬ dred 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 diO this ecabiuse of what I had read of Mr. Cooper’s new medi¬ cine and because my husband had heard so many railroad men recom¬ mend it. "‘That was the best resolution of My life. I am now on my fourth bot¬ tle 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 be¬ lieved 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 six¬ teen pounds, and am improving right along every day. Before taking Tan¬ lac I was so wcakk and frail I was greatly discouraged 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. I am not nervous like I was, and I can see and feel a great im provement. I sleep better and my strength is returning rapidly." Tanlac is sold exclusively in Wat kinsville by Billups & White; In Bishop by J. F. Lay; in Eastville (R. F. D., Watkinsville) by W. E. Dooley. (adv.) PRAY BEFORE BEING MARRIED Here Is a Russian proverb that Might be made good use of. It cer¬ tainly would dispel a multitude o f sorrows, especially the last one whicl would prevent many hasty marriages and relieve the courts of many di¬ vorce cases, it takes matrimony out of the pale of whims and makes a divine consideration of it. The prov¬ erb runs this way: If you go to war, pray; if you go on a sea journey, pray twice; but pray three times if you are going to be married." Good advice, all of it. There Is too much that is hysterical in the matrimonial venture, and a little praying will tend to relieve the mind. Ohio State Journal.

Clayton Street ATHENS GEORGIA Put Your Money In Land After the war what? High priced land. Yes, boys, its going “yonder.” The fact that more and a greater variety of crops can be produced in the South than any other section of the coun¬ try is gradually finding its way into the brain of mankind. When it crystalizes into a universal conviction, as it soon will, you’ll see something doing in iand. I am now ofering two small farms for sale. One containing about fifty acres in Oconee County about two miles from Watkinsville on the Athens and High Shoals road and the other containing about sixty-six acres in Clarke County about two miles from the city limits of Athens on the Tallassee road. Both of these places can be made very at¬ tractive farm homes. Such places as will turn out a living for you and yours and do it with a pleasant expression. Better see me at once if you think there is anything in the thought that high priced land is just around the corner. : : ; : E.D.SLEDGE Athens, Georgia Athens Business College Graduates placed in the best positions.
