had before in ten years." said Mrs.
W. A. Weigel, 4 IOC, Binney Street.
Omaha. Nebraska.
"Xlne years ago my stomach be
gan giving me trouble and 1 was
going down hill gradually and re
cently I became almost helpless.. My
appetite was so poor I didn't care to
eat and Buffered so much that I ac
tually dreaded to go to the table.
Finally I got so weak and nervous I
couldn't get any restful sleep and
went down hill rapidly.
"I suffered so long and so much
and had taken such a quantity of
medicine I began to think there was
nothing made that could help me.
But when I began taking Tanlac it
took hold of my troubles and in a
short time the indigestion was gone.
I now feel like a new woman, am
just as well as I ever was and I owe
it all to Tanlac."
Tanlac is sold in Plattsmouth by
F. G. Fricke and Company; in Mur

TO GET TO CRESTON, IOWA
From Saturday s Dally.
Yesterday afternoon, a gentleman
named Whitney, with his wife and
two children arrived in the city and
were in very destitute circumstances.
They stated that they had been re
siding in Colorado Springs. Colorado,
but the climate there affected the
health of Mr. Whitney and they de
sired to return to Creston. Iowa,
their former home, to live In the
future.
On the way east they had expect
ed to make stops and where Mr. Whit
ney expected to take up odd jobs
that might offer. Their plans were
interfered with by the fact that the
work was not forthcoming and upon
reaching this city they were cleaned
up of all their available funds and
reduced to want. They told their
story to County Attorney A. G. Cole
and found a response to their tale of
misfortune, as he very generously
provided them with quarters for the
night, and assisted them on their
way to Creston. paying the costs of
the family from his own pocket.
Why don't the Kansas City bank
robbers hold noon luncheons and give
out their receipts for the day and
the amount still necessary to go over
the top in their January drive? If
Kansas City knew what the goal was,
it would likely be glad to meet it at
once, and then rest ca?y until a new
drive begins.

Not a Profitable Venture.

which weighed forty-eight pounds,

how Doan's Kidney Pills have stood
the test. Edward Martin, machinist
of 1409 Vine street endorsed Doan's
four years ago ' and again confirms
the story. Could you ask for more
convincing testimony?
"Doan's Kidney Pills are all thct
is claimed for them and whenever my
kidneys get out of fix or act irregu
lar, a box of Doan's Kidney Pills
soon remedies the trouble," says Mr.
Martin. "Occasionally my back gets
to aching, but it only requires a few
of Doan's Kidney Pills to relieve
me."
The above statement was given
February 22. 1916, and on May 1C.
1920. Mr. Martin added: "I know
Doan's Kidney Pills are a good rem
edy after what they have done for
me. They have never failed to do
their work in a short time. I only
use them occasionally now as a pre
ventative to keep my kidneys in a
healthy condition. I have the b'st cf
faith in Doan's and can recommend
them as a reliable remedy."

TT
r
'oiicy
f II lHE prices of the New Edison, "The Phonograph With a Soul,"
1
have increased iess tnan
this increase is War Tax
1 5 ' r since 1914. A large share of
Edison sacrificed millions of dollars in profits, which he might have
made. Why and how he did this are explained in the circular, "What
Did Edison Do During the War?" Call, or write, for a copy of this
interesting circular,
r -
Should the Government increase the Excise Tax on Phonographs,
it will be necessary to increase the price of the New Edison. We
hope that no additional tax will be placed upon music, which Na
poleon said "is the art to which legislators ought to give the greatest
encouragement."
Even without an additional Tax, the Edison Manufacturing Labora
tories would have had to increase their selling prices, if they had not
been able to maintain a full time Operation in their Phonograph
Works. Accordingly, they worked full force, until the close of the
year, and are now shut down temporarily, while Edison dealers, such
as ourselves, are preparing their orders for 1921.
There will be no increase in Edison prices, if it can be avoided. On
the other hand, we guarantee that the selling prices of the New
Edison, in 1921, will not be reduced.
The manufacture of Edison Re-Creations is being increased, and a
special department is being installed for the rapid manufacture of
timely selections.
Ask your banker about the Edison policy, whereby you are able to
buy a before-the-war value with an after-the-war dollar.
