Eats Anything. Sleeps Like a Log
and Works Hards Every
Day Now.
"If it had not been for Tanlac, I
would have had to quit my job," said
Andrew Chachula, R. F. D. 5. Box
4 2, West Allis, Wis., while in the
Central Drug store, Milwaukee, re
cently. "My stomach was in a horrible
sliape, and I had no appetite and
could hardly eat a thing at all, and
what little I did force down caused
me awful suffering." continued Mr.
Chacula. "I would have the worst
sort of cramps in my stomach, and
gas would form and cause pains in
the region of my heart. I could
hardly breathe and had a choking
feeling in my tjiroat. I also had se
vere pains across the small of my
back and I could hardly bend over,
and when I did I would have trou
ble straightening up again. I had
terrible headaches nearly every day
and when they came on me I would
have to quit work and go home. I
could sleep but very little because
of the pains in my stomach and
head, and lots of nights I would
sleep only about an hour, and would
get up in the morning feeling all
fagged out.
"I became so weak and run down
I was on the point of quitting work
altogether when I read in the news
papers of the good Tanlac was do
ing others. I got me a bottle and
began taking it right away, and I
began at once to get better, and af
ter taking several lottles I am like
a new man. I have a fine appetite
and eat anything I want without its
hurting me the least bit. I never
have those awful cramps in my stom
ach any more, and never suffer from
gas or the choking feeling, and the
pains around my heart -are all gone.
My back is all right now, and I nev
er have a sign of headache. I sleep
like a log and get up in the morn
ings feeling fine. I have never had
to lay off from work a single day
since I began taking Tanlac and can
do more work in one day now than
I ( uld in two or three days before
taking this medicine."

VERY INTERESTING
Rev. L. W. Scott at Murray Christian
Church is Securing Splendid
Results.
From Saturday's Daily.
Rev. L. W. Scott of the Christian
church of this city, who is now en
gaged in the series of evangelistic
meetings at Murray was in the city
today for a few hours and is well
pleased with the splendid manner
in which the citizens of Murray are
responding to the efforts of the meet
ings. During the past week the at
tendance has greatly increased and
fcix confessions of faith were secured
as the result of the splendid efforts
of Rev. Scott. The speaker is one of
the ablest of the speakers of the
church in thks portion of the state
and his work in the evangelistic field
has resulted in much good for the
church in the communities where he
has been holding meetings. Mrs.
Board adjourned to meet on Tues
day, the 2nd day of December, 1919.

Prnm Thursday's Dally.
Last evening was the first night
of the new regulations requested of
the citizens of the community as a
means of conservation of fuel and
these regulations were almost with
out exception observed. In a few
cares a misunderstanding of the
date for the closing to become effec
tive caused them to remain open,
but these were rare exceptions and
by S o'clock last evening the busi
ness section of the city was shroud
ed in darkness with only the pic
ture shows and the pool halls open
for business.
The amended regulations which
close the pool halls at 9 o'clock and
the picture shows at 9:30, will go
into effect this evening and will add
to the general deserted looking ap
pearance of the business section of
the city.
The proposition of aiding in the
light conservation program by the
abandoning of a part at least of the
street lights of the city for the pres
ent period is being urged and will ite
taken up by Mayor Schneider with
the light company to see what can
be done in this line. The abandon
ment of the street lights, while it
might work a small hardship on the
travelers after night would aid
greatly in cutting down the load that
is being carried in the evening by
the local lighting plant and every
little bit taken off helps save coal.
The fact of the moonlight nights
and the snow on the ground makes
it quite light even without the use
of the street lights and they could
be spared very easily and especially
in the business section of the city,
which is not very lively after the
closing hours.
The banks of the city this morn
ing opened under the new regula
tion hours and the doors of these
institutions did not swing ajar un
til 10 o'clock and the tired clerks
and bank officials were able to grab
off an additional hour's sleep this
morning.
