The cause of every individual
disease common to the human body
is within the body, and the cure is

My great success in the elimi

Chiropractic adjustments, whether
it be tonsilitis, appendicitis, goitre,

THOUSANDS MAY
BE ADDED TO COST
OF LUMBER HERE
Southern Railroads Attempt to
Raise Freight Rates 3
Cents; Chamber of Com
merce to Fight.
More than $50,000 a year would be
added to the cost of lumber used in
Omaha if the increase in freight rates
now proposed by the southern roads
should be allowed.
The traffic bureau of the Omaha
Chamber of Commerce has just re
ceived notice that the southern roads
are now preparing tariffs providing
for an increase in the rate on lumber
from southern blanket territory to
Omaha, Council Bluffs, Lincoln and
Des Moines. The rate has stood at
2f)y2 cents since Feb. 15, 1917. Prior
to that time, by litigation which cov
ered a period of eight years, the traf
fic bureau her", aided by Lincoln, Des
Moines and Council B!uffs lumber
men, held the rate down to 25 cents.
Three-Cent Raise.
Now the" roads propose that it shall
be raised to 28 cents per 100 pounds.
The traffic bureau in Omaha is con
sulting the lunjber dealers of Omaha
as to what action shall be taken, and
it is probable that an organized fight
against the proposed increase will be
made.
Much of the lumber used in Omaha
for manufacturing and for building
purposes, and much that is jobbed out
of Omaha comes from the southern
field.

PRICE OF WHEAT
TO BE RAISED BY
WILSON'S ORDERS
Washington, Feb. 23. There were
indications today that the price of the
1918 wheat crop would .be increased
soon by presidential proclamation.
Tinder the food control law the
price for wheat of the 1918 crop was
set at $2 a bushel, but that is con
strnpH tn he a minimum, giving the
nresident authority to increase the
price if he considers conditions war
rant it.
I'nnn reromniendation of the spe
cial wheat committee, headed by Dr.
Harry A. Garheld, the president last
Anonst fixed $2.20 a bushel as the
price of wheat of the 1917 crop now
being marketed.
Several bills are Bending in con
gress to raise the price of the 1918
wheat crop, some ot them proposing
to put it as high as $2.75 a bushel.
It was pointed out today that an
obvious advantage in fixing the price
of the 1918 crop at $2.20 would be
that it would release quantities ot
wheat which might be held in the ex
pectation of a higher price being
fixed by congress.
Shoot Troops for Refusing to
Sing "Die Wacht Am Rhine"
London, Feb. 23. A dispatch to
the Exchange Telegraph from Ams
terdam, dated Thursday, says that ac
cording to frontier reports at Bever
loo, in Belgium, where German re
cruits arc trained for the front, the
officers announced February 17 that
the men would leave for Flanders
the 18th and expected them to sing
"Die Wacht Am Rhine'' and other
German national songs.
The soldiers, according to the dis
patch, declined to comply, whereupon
an officer drew his sword and at
tacked a recruit. The officer was shot
and afterward all the soldiers sus
pected of having participated in the
revolt were court-martialed, sentenced
to death and shot the same day.
One KilleJ When Runaway
Train Hits Two Engines
Wilkesbarre, Pa., Feb. 23. Food
stuffs and railroad property valued at
more than $250,000 were destroyed
last night when a freight train on the
Central railroad of New Jersey got
beyond control of the engineer on the
Wilkesbarre mountain and after run
ning four miles at terrific speed,
clashed into two engines at Ashley,
near here.
An engineer was killed and other
railroad men were seriously injured.
The runaway train, consisting of 42
cars loaded with meats and other
foodstuffs, caught fire after the crash
and virtually all the cars with their
contents were either destroyed or
badly damaged.

FORMER MAYOR
OF BIRMINGHAM
Says He Now Weighs More
Than He Ever Did in His
Life Since Talcing Ta.ilac.
One of the latest additions to the
large and rapidly growing list of
prominent men who have publicly in
dorsed Tanlac for the good it has done
them, is the name of Hon. Frank V.
Evans, former mayor of Birmingham.
Mr. Evans is one of the best known
men in public life in Alabama today,
being at one time editor of one of the
sotith's greatest newspapers, the Bir
mingham Age-Herald. He was also
examiner of public accounts in Ala
bama. In telling of the benefits he
had derived from Tanlac Mr. Evans
said:
"For years I suffered with gastritis
and indigestion in the worst form. I
was habitually constipated and had
pains in my shoulders and headache
continually. My appetite left me al
most entirely and everything I would
eat hurt me. Finally I got to having
awful attacks of acute indigestion, pal
pitation of the heart and smothering
spells. For a long time I would have
one or more of these spells every
night and I would wake out of my
restless sleep gasping for breath.
"I bought a bottle of Tanlac, and to
my surprise and gratification I began
to feel relief after the first few doses.
I kept taking the medicine and now
I weigh more than I ever did in my
life. My recovery is simply the talk
of Birmingham.
BANKERS IN SOUTH
INDORSE TANLAC
From Two of the Best Known Bank
ers in the South Comet Vol
untary Praise.
Two of the best known bankers in
the southern states recently in per
sonal letters told of their remarkable
experiences with the use c Tanlac.
Their letters follow exactly as writ
ten: The first letter quoted comes
through Eli W. Goode, druggist and
local agent for Tanlac at Hawkins
ville, Georgia, containing the state
ment of E. J. Henry, president of the
Hawkinsville Bank and Trust com
pany, which is one of the best known
financial institutions in that, part of
the state. His letter . follows, just as
it was written:
"Hawkinsville, Ga March, 1917.
"Mr. G. F. Willis, Atlanta, Georgia.
"Dear Sir: Mr. E. J. Henry, presi
dent of the Hawkinsville Bank and
Trust company, came into my store a
few days ago and said:
"I said, Mr. Henry, what do you
really think of Tanlac?' His reply was
so, commendable to the virtues of the
medicine, that 1 asked him if he would
give me a signed statement about it.
He said, 'Yes; of course I will,' and
this is his statement.
" 'Last spring I was all wrong some
way or other, and couldn't get right.
I came to you and bought a bottle of
Tanlac and began to improve. Two
more bottles put me all right, and I
felt perfectly well. A few weeks ago
I had the grippe and was beginning
to get down and out again, and about
a week ago I bought another bottle
and have taken it and am perfectly
well again.
" 'I unhesitatingly recommend Tan
lac to anyone who is sick and worn
out, as I believe that if anybody will
take Tanlac when they first begin to
feel badly it will prevent and keep off
sickness. It certainly is a great rem
edy. (Signed) " 'E. J. HENRY, President.
'"Hawkinsville Bank & Trust Co.'"
The other letter referred to comes
from the cashier of the Hornbeck
branch of the West Louisiana bank,
at Hornbeck, La., and is as follows:
"Hornbeck, La., March 5. 1917.
"Mr. G. F. Willis, Atlanta. Ga.
"Dear Sir: I wish to say that I
have taken five (5) bottles of Tanlac
and have gained fifteen (15) pounds
in three weeks. I think it is a great
medicine.

PRESIDENT COTTON OIL
MILL PRAISES TANLAC
Mr. C. C. Cooper, president of the
Georgia Home Oil company of Law
renceville, Ga., and one of the big
business men of Atlanta, said:
"I suffered for seven or eight years.
Not until I began taking Tan
lac have I been able to notice the
slightest improvement in my condi
tion. I am greatly improved, and
lanlac is unquestionably the best
thing of the kind I ever tried."
Among the prominent manufactur
ers and business men who have in
dorsed Tanlac are John F. Carroll,

dorse Tanlac.
It is seldom indeed that men of
prominence, especially men holding
high public office, willingly express
their indebtedness publicly to a pro
prietary medicine. Many prominent
men, however, including supreme
court judges, mayors of our leading
cities, prominent state and county of
ficials, bankers, lawyers, doctors, ed
itors, leading educators government
officials, an! even ministers of the
gospel, have deemed It their duty to
come forward and tell the people
what Tanlac has done for' them.
These well known men of affairs
have recognized in this medicine a
new discovery and a scientifi: triumph
in the medical world. It is a well
known fact that these splendid in
dorsements have been given Tanlac
time and time acain. and thev will
continue to be given just ns often as
new tests of its powers are made: and
it also explains why numbers of the
big drug firms of the country are or
dering it exclusively in carload lots.
Appearing below are a. few indorse
ments from the ISrge number that are
continually being given to the public:
HIGH SHERIFFS ARE
NOW CONVINCED
From four of the best known sher
iffs i:i the south, in widely separated
states, have come enthusi?stic in
dorsements as to the merits of Tanlac.
"Tanlac has certainly he'ped me.
and I recommend it for the good it
has done in mv case," said Hon. C. W.
Mangum, ex-sheriff of Fulton county
Georgia, who resides in Atlanta and
who has been one of the most popular
officials in the state, having served
thrre terms as sheriff.
"Tanlac seemed to be just what I
needed to put my system in shape,
and it has toned me right no. Natur
ally I would recommend it to my
friends, and I know of fifteen or twen
ty families that are taking it now on
my sav-so."
Arkansas Official Testifies.
Hon. Chas. I. Lewis, ex-sheriff of
Crittenden county, a merchant and a
large plantation owner of Marion, Ar.
kansas, said: "I am convinced from
the benefits that mv wife and myself
and many of our friends have re
ceived from Tanlac that it is without
an -equal."
Ex-Sheriff Anderson's Statement.
"Money couldn't buy the good Tan
lac has done me, and I gladly recom
mend it to others for tyhat it has
done in my case," said Hon. Archie R.
Anderson, ex-sheriff of Harris county.
Texas, who re-elected to this high of
fice seven times and served the peo
ple of his county for fifteen years as
sheriff. Mr. Anderson was chief of
police of the city of Houston, where
he resides, for several years, and
there is not a better known man in
Harris countv.
Texas Sheriff Indorsement.
"I needed a general all-round build
ing up for the last seven months, and
Tanlac has done that very thinsr for
me," said Hon. S. A. Kelly, sheriff of
Ector county, Texas, who resides at
Odessa, Texas, and who is one of the
most popular officials , in that section
of the state.
"I have taken only two bottles, but
I feel like a different man already.
My appetite is fine and what I eat
gives me nourishment and strength.
The rheumatism is much better and
my liver is in good condition. I am
relieved of the headaches and feel
more active and energetic than I have
in months."

TOLD EXPERIENCE
Calls at Big Laboratory to Ex
press Gratitude; Gained
Eighteen Pounds.
During his recent visit to relatives
in Dayton, Ohio, E. A. Weldy, who
numbers among his business enter
prises the management of the Emory
hotel in Scottsbluff, Neb., called at
the laboratories of the Cooper Medi
cine company, where the celebrated
preparation Tanlac is made, and in re
lating his intensely interesting experi
ence with the use of that medicine
said:
"When I stepped on the scales and
found that I had gone up from 116 to
134 pounds, an actual gain of 18V5
pounds in weight, since I started tak
ing Tanlac, I was positively convinced
that this Tanlac has no equal for
building up a person who suffers like
I did.
"A complete nervous breakdown
left me so weak and run down that
it seemed like I couldn't get back in
condition again,'' Mr. Weldy con
tinued. "My liver was out of shape,
my tongue was coated like fur and I
was never without a bad taste in my
mouth from this condition. I was
so restless at night from my disor
dered nerves and deranged kidneys
that I would roll and toss nearly all
night and get up in the morning feel
ing worse than if I hadn't been to
bed at all. I tried several mediciiies
for the trouble, but didn't seem, to get
any better. My mother sent mc a
bottle of Tanlac and I started tak
ing it.
"You never saw a man improve like
I did as soon as I got started using
that Tanlac. My liver settled and
began to do its work right. My skin
cleared up and I have been getting
stronger every day since. I don't have
any trpuble with my kidneys any
more and my nerves are as steady as
a rock. That tired, worn-out feeling
has left me and I feel as full of life
and energy as a brand new man. I
rest at night as peacefully as a healthy
child and I weigh more and am in bet
ter health than I have been for years.
These are the facts in my own case
and I know every one will agree with
me when I say that I have good
cause to recommend Tanlac."
TEXAS MINISTER
NOW TESTIFIES
"I Found Tanlac Just What My Sys
tem Needed," Says Rev.
F. M. Winburn.
The Rev. F. M. Winburn, 308 North
Erie street, San Antonio, who is prom
inent, not only as a Methodist minis
ter of that city, but popular as a man
and citizen, who has been true to his
friends and every trust reposed in
him, said a few days ago:
"I had no appetite and very little
relish for anything to eat. What I
did eat failed to give me the proper
nourishment and my sleep didn't give
me the necessary rest. My system
seemed to be all run down, and, while
I was not seriously ill, I suffered from
weakness and general debility. Often
I would arise in the morning feeling
weak and depressed and could not do
my work without tiring very quickly
and for some time I had felt the need
of something to build me up and give
me fresh vigor.
"I began taking Tanlac at Florence,
Ala., and found it to be just what my
system needed, and it gives me pleas
ure to say so. After using one bottle
j of the medicine my appetite began to
improve and with it I began to feel
stronger and better in every way.
After coming to Texas a friend of V
mine sent me another bottle and I
used it also, with the most gratifying
results. I consider Tanlac an extra
good medicine to build up run-down
systems. I now enjoy my meals and
my sleep is restful and refreshing. I
get up in the morning with renewed
energy and with strength to do my
work without tiring as I did. I con
sider that I am only performing my
duty in giving my indorsement for
Tanlac."
KENTUCKY NOTABLES
ARE ENTHUSIASTIC
Hon. Moses R. Glenn of Frankfort,
Ky., state superintendent of public
printing, a man of wide experience
and one who has been true to his
friends and to every public trust,
said on his last visit to Louisville:
"I am a conservative man and have
had very little faith in medicine of any
kind; but I feel it my duty to my fel
low men to state publicly what your
medicine has done for me. The
catarrhal condition of my nose, head
and throat was simply distressing, and
I had almost decided to go to a warm
climate, preferably Florida, when I de
cided to try Tanlac. I am now a
well man, and I propose to tell others
of the good this medicine has done
me."
Among the Kentuckians in public
life who have given their unqualified
approval of Tanlac for its specific aid
to them are:
Hon. McKenzie Moss, judge of the
Eight judicial district; Hon. Moses
R. Glenn, state superintendent of
printing; John B. Gain;s. editor and
publisher of the Bowling Green Daily
News; George W. Hinton, former sec
retary of the Warren County Equity
league; President Pegg of the New
port Business college, and others.
