SOUTHERN RY, ENGINEER
PAID- OUT §1200.00
“DAD” WATKINS TREATED BY
SPECIALISTS IN ATLANTA, BIR
MINGHAM AND RICHMOND
WITHOUT RELIEF.
Nearly everybody who has ever
ridden a passenger train between
Birmingham and Atlanta knows S, T,
Watkins, known by his friends as
“Dad” Watkins, the “Preacher En
gineer,” for a number of years loco
motive engineer for the Snuthurn‘
Railway, running between Birming
ham and Atlanta. Mr. Watkins is
one of the oldest engineers in the
service ofthe company. In a recent
interview Mr. Watkins said:
“l 1 have been treated by skilled
specialists in Birmingham, Atlanta
and Richmond, and guess 1 have
taken about as much medicine as any
man, but never have I found any
thing that has helped me so much
as Tanlac, and I have spent l\w-l\'vl
hundred dollars—a small fortune
trying to regain my health. ’
“lI suffered for twenty-seven long
years with stomach trouble, which
the doctors told me was caused by
catarrhal asthma. Instead of get
ting better, 1 was getting worse all
the time. | got so whenever 1 ate
¢r drank anything it was almost like
taking that much fire into my stom
ach. 1 was so run down that when
the time came for me to go out on
my run, I just simply had to force
myself to daty, and when I got in
my cab I knew.l was in no shape to
sit at the throttle. The pains in my
stemach and head were so severe |
could hardly , stand it. About two
months ago I had such a severe at
tack I had to take to the bed, and 1|
just about decided that ‘my time had
come,” for no man ever suffered any
more than 1 did then.
“1 practically gave up all hope,
but when I began to hear of the re
markable things Tanlac was doing
for sick people in Atlanta, many of
whom 1 knew, 1 bought a bottle. 1
then began to feel better every day.
The first bottle helped me so much
I got the second, and the results were
gimply marvelous. 1 have taken in
all ten bottles and have never in
my life seen anything to equal it. It
went straight to my troubles, and
was in a hurry about doing it, too.
My friénds began to ask me what |
was doing to myself.
“The change has been so great
that 1 can hardly realize that a short
time ago I was such a sick, tired,
worn-cut, broken-down piece of hu
manity. | haven’'t a pain about me
now, and have more life and energy
than I have had in years. I[l can eat
whatever 1 please, and it doesn't hurt
me, and I sleep fine-—something 1
couldn’t do before 1 began taking
Tanlac. Tanlac has ended my troub
les, and you don't know how happy 1
am over it,
“1 believe when a medicine puts a
fellow on his feet, like Tanlac has
done me, it is nothing but right to
come out and tell the people about
it through the papers and on the
streets, and 1 wish it were so every
poor, sick person in the country
could know the good Tanlac has done
me. Everybody who knows me—
and I know a great many people
knows that it has made a new man
out of me."”

particular party service. You always have your option
as to which class of service you will use on any toll call.
The rates for the new service and for the regular par
