"I HAVE NEVER SEEN
ANYTHING T 0 EQUAL
IT," SAYS THOMAS
Has Gained Thirty Pounds and
Says He Feels Like a Brand
New Man After Suffering
Many Years.
Tve never seen anythin? to equal
the way this Tanlac drove my troubles
out." said L. Thomas, residing at 303(1
St. Elmo Avenue, St. Elmo, Tenn., a
few days ago.
"Yes. sir. It’s a fa o' I feet nite a
brand new man all over since taking It
and I’ve gained all of thirty pounds,"
continued Mr. Thomas. I was puny
and frail looking and weak as a kitten
from years of suffering from stomach
trouble, before X began taking it. I
had indigestion terribly bad and could
n’t eat anything without paying for it
in misery afterward, t was as nerv
ous as X could be and kept going down
untl I gt ito where I didn’t weigh
but one hundred and fifty-five pounds
and I felt so tired and good-fop-noth-
Ing all the time I just had to force
myself to do the least little thing. I
tried many different medicines but did
not get any relief to speak of and 1
begun to get afraid I’d never get well.
“I had heard so much about Tanlac
I finally made up my mind it would
help me and, it’s the honest truth,
after the first bottle or two I began to
feel like my old self again and now
all my trobules are gone and I enjoy
my meals Without any suffering and
feel strong and fit for any kind of work.
I now weigh one hundred and eighty
five pounds and. all my neighbors who
know what, a fix I was in will tell you
how much healthier X look. What
Tanlac has done for me has got to he
the talk of everybody who knows me
and you can bet I tell them all what
a great medicine it is.”
Tanlac is sold in Augusta exclusively
by Howard’s Drug Stores.—(Advt.)

1 ARGENTINE NOT
SATISFIED WITH
GERMAN REPLY
(BY THE UNITED PRESS.)
Buenos Aires.—Germany's explana
tion of the torpedoing of the Argentine
steamer Monte Protegido is unsatis
factory to Argentine, according to in
formation from official sources today,
it was generally believed that Argen
tine will announce a break in relations
with the. imperial German govern
ment.
No announcement was made as to
the exact excuse advanced by the
German givernment for sinking the
steamer.
The Monte Protegido was sunk off
the Spanish coast. At first there was
some question as to the authenticity
of her Argentine registry, but this was
cleared up. ,
1,300,000 IS GERMAN
DEAD IN WAR SO FAR
(BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.) .
Amsterdam.—(Via London.) - One
million, three hundred thousand Ger
mans have perished -in the war, ac
cording tr. a statement made by Joseph
Friedrich Naunann, formerly a con
servative member of the reichstag.
Herr Naunann lecturing on the “in
fluence of the war on population," said
in part:
, "Until now the war has caused a loss
of 3,300,0011 dead. This, together with
the decrease in borth, gives a reduction
of 3,350,000. The surplus of females
has increased from 800,000 to far more
than 2‘. *'o,oof,. The nation has bled as
never since the Thirty Years’ War."
The report of the lecture received
here does not. state where it was de
livered.

THE KING’S FAVORITE.
Once upon a time there was a King
who had a favorite servant named
Mello, of whom all the other servants
Were very .jealous. They tried in every
way to make the King dislike him.
But in spite of all they cnu*l do or
say the King still -showered favors and
riches upon Mello and kept him near
him all the time.
One day one of the servants named
Vetto, who was a little more wicked
than the others, went to an Ogre, who
lived on the highest mountain top. and
told him he would give him two .big
bags of-gold if he would carry off the
King’s favorite.
Of course, the Ogre was glad to do
any had thing, so he took the gold
and told Vetto he would have Mello
out of the palace the very next day
and that they would never be bothered
with him again.
That night the Ogre told his wife to
have a kettle of boiling water over the

CHILDREN LOVE
SIRUP OF FIGS
If feverish, bilious, consti
pated, give fruit laxative
, at once.
Pon't scold your fretful, peevish
child. See if tongue is coated; this is
a sure sign its little stomach, liver and
bowels are clogged with sour waste.
When listless, pale, feverish, full of
cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn’t
eat, sleep or net naturally, has stom
ach -ache t indigestion, diarrhoea, give
a ten spoonful of “California Syrup of
Figs,” and in a few hours all the foul
waste, the sour bile and fermenting
food passes out of the bowels and you
have n well and playful child again.
Children love this harmless “fruit lax
ative,” and mothers can rest easy after
giving it. because it never fails to mak#
their little “insides” clean and sweet.
Keep it handy, Mother! A little given
today saves a sick child tomorrow, but
get. the genuine. Ask your druggist
for a 50-cent bottle of “California Sy
rup of Figs,” which has directions for
babies, children of all ages and for
grown-ups plainly on the bottle. Re
member there are counterfeits sold
here, so surely look and see that yours
is made by the “California Fig Syrup
Company.” Hand back with contempt
any other fig syrup.

fire all night, for he was liable to come
in at any hour with a big fat pig and
he would be hungry and want it for
his supper.
In this way he intended to make his
wife do the bad deed, so he would not
have the death of'poor Mello on h*
conscienoe.
The Ogress was not A had woman;
in fact, she was not an Ogress at all,
but a I’rineess who had been stolen by
an old witch, the mother of the Ogre,
and given to her son for his wife.
When she Ogre had gone out on his
flying horse that night the Ogress
Princess put the pot ever the fire and
let the water boil just as the Ogre had
told her to do; then she went to the
closet and got a. bag just like the hag
the Ogre had carried with him to put
Mello in.
This bag the Ogress Princess filled
with big stones Then she brewed a
pot of tea. and into this she dropped
two white pills, which she took from a
little bottle which had been given her
by a fairy before she had been stolen
by the witch.
"Keep these pills. You will need
them some day." said the fairy. "They
will put your enemy to sleep.”
"But I have no enemy,” said the
unsuspecting Princess.
"You may have. Keep them and
let no one know you have them,” said
the fairy.

The Ogress Princces had tried many
timea to u.se them, hut had no one to
help her, and ahe knew if the Ogre
went to sleep he would awake. She
oould not-,escape hy herself from the
top of the very highest mountain. By
and by she heard the wings of the
Horse and went to the door to meet,
the Ogre with the howl of hot tea la
her hands.
The Ogre put the bag on the ground
while he drank the tea, and when he
turned to pick it up the Ogress Prin
cess stood in front of it' so that he
saw only the bag which held the
stones.
lie picked up the bag and swung
it over bis shoulder with such force
that the stones threw him to the
ground and no s-oner had ho dropped
than he was sound asleep.
Quick as a flash the Ogress Prin
cess untied the bag which held poor
Mrllo. who thought this time his end
had surely come.

utes to hind the Ogre, and when this
was done M. Hr saw that the lady who
had saved his life was very beautiful
She I oh! Mcllo all about the f »gre
and his witch mother and the servant
Vetto, who had given tin two bags of
gold to have Mello currletl off.
Mcllo made his Way hark tc Ihe
King and t-.,.k Ihe Princess with him
and when the King heard all about
the Ogre an I how Vetto had tried to
get rid ' f his favorite he was very
angry "We will go to the Ogre's
house and lake Vetto wl*h us. He de
serves to he put Into the pot that was
prepared for Mello,"
When they reached the top of the
mountain there was the Ogre awake
old struggling to frss hlrnaelf and ths
King would have put him to death at
once if the Princess had riot begged
for his lif» and also that of’the fright
ened Vetto.
"Very well." replied the King "T
will spate them on nr> condition—
VetP shall tie 'he servant of Mello all
Ills life and the Ogre ahsll become a
Idg tree will'll Mirall give shade hy the

Then the King sent for his wise
men snd they sent for a good witch
and she changed the Ogre Into a tree,
which went flying off the top of the

just where,
Ti e Ogre's castle was filled with
