SOUTH SIDE
MIDNIGHT VISIT
AT LINDLEY HOME
AIDS RED CROSS
"Package" Placed on Commis
sion Man's Front Porch V
Be Auctioned; Gift.
From Avoca.
Brie City News
If modern donkeys were endowed
with the gift of speech, as in olden diiys
.vhen Balaam took his celebrated ride,
Torn Lindley, 2311 F street, member
of the Lindley Live Stock Commis
sion company, might have demanded
in explanation from the long-eared
visitor of his presence on the front
porch of the Lindley home on a quiet
Sunday morning.
As the tumult of noise broke the
stillness of the early morning hour,
Nfr. Lindley dreamily wondered if
the end of the world was approach
ing, with Gabriel in the vanguard.
But as the matutinal serenade con
tinued he was aroused to conscious
ness, and peering out of the window
saw the four-legged disturber of the
peace securely anchored with a log
ihain and two padlocks to a post on
the porch. Both sides of the beast
were decorated with a background of
white paint, in the center of which
appeared a black-lettered inscription:
"Compliments of Chap, of Avoca,
la.," which being interpreted, accord
ing to Mr. Lindley, means "Compli
ments of the Red Cross Chapter,
Avoca, la."
Investigation revealed the fact that
some enthusiastic Red Cross workers
it Avoca. customers of the Lindley
Commission company, had conceived
the idea of transporting the donkey,
v hich had already netted $52 for the
Avoca chapter, to Omaha by auto
truck to be re-sold for the Red Cross
fund. The party had driven a dis
tance of 52 miles Saturday night to
deliver their charge to other hands.
"It was a good joke," said Mr.
Lindley. "Those fellows are certainly
ambitious in working for a good
cause."
Mr. Lindley announced that after I
the donkey has had a chance to rest
up a few days, he will be sold at auc
tion and the proceeds turned over
to the Red Cross fund.

Their Medicine Chest For 20 Yean
IT is characteristic of
folks after they pass the allotted
"threo score years and ten," to look
back over the days that are gone
sod thoughtfully live them over.
I find myself, at seventy-one, frequently
drifting back a quarter of a century, when
I see myself in the little drag store I owned
at Bolivar, Mo., making and selling a
vegetable compound to my friends and
customers what was then known only as
Dr. Lewis' Medicine for Stomach, Liver
and Bowel Complaints.
For many years while I was perfecting my
formula I studied and investigated the
laxatives and cathartics on the market and.
became convinced that their main fault
was not that they did not act on the bowels,
but that their action was too violent and
drastic, and upset the system of the user;
which was dne to the fact that they were
not thorough enough in their action, some
simply acting on the tipper or small intes
tines, while others would act only on the
lower or large intestines, and that they
almost Invariably produced a habit re
quiring augmented doses.
I believed that a preparation to produce
the best effect must first tone the liver,
then acton the stomach and entire alimen
tary system. If this was accomplished, the
medicine would produce a mild, but
thorough elimination ot the waste without
the usual sickening sensations, and make
the user feel better at once.
After experimenting with hundred of
different compounds, I at last perfected the
formula that is now known as Natara's
, which I truly believe goes further
and does more than any laxative on the
market today. The thousands of letters
from users have convinced me I was right,
and that the user ot Na tare's Rsmsdy as a
family medicine, even though he may have
used it for twenty-five years, never has
to increase the dose.
My knowledge of medicine and the re
sults of its use in my own family and
among my friends, before I ever ottered it
for sale, caused me to have great faith in
Nsturs's Remedy from tht very first.
And now ai I find myself n earing the sgs
when I must bow to the inevitable and gs
to another life, my greatest pleasure is to
sit each day and read the letters that each
mail brings from people as old or older
than I, who tell of having used Nature's
Remedy for ten, fifteen and twenty years,
and how they and their children and
grandchildren have been benefitted by it.
It is a consoling thought, my friends, for
a man at my age to feel that aside from
his own success, one has done something
for his fellow man. My greatest satisfac
tion, my greatest happiness today, is the
knowledge that tonight mora than one

"Yes. sir. I have stained twenty.
five pounds and now I can do all my
housework, and attend to my 'war
trarden.' and other small patches
about tho house, but before taking
Tanlac I couldn't do anything worth
while," said Mrs. Amelia Mann, wife
of a well-known farmer living: on R.
F. D. No. 2. Oeden, Utah, recently In
a statement that is both interesting
and remarkable.
Mrs. Mann is the mother of four
teen children and although 61 years
of age, she says she feels many years
younger now. Continuing, she said:
"I commenced suffering with stom
ach trouble sixteen years ago and
gradually kept getting worse until
seven or eight years ago, when I had
a spell that laid me up for nine or ten
weeks. I simply suffered agony and
from then on I began having such
terrible pains In and about my stom
ach at times that I could hardly stand
it. I would get in all kinds of posi
tions trying to get some ease, but the
only way I could get any relief was
to lay hard on my stomach, and for
two weeks I never slept two hours a
night. I was under treatment sev-
! eral times, and tried all kinds of medi
cines, and still got no relief and when
they told me I could never get well
without an operation I felt that my
trouble must be very serious.
"I used to weigh one hundred and
seventy-five pounds but I kept falling
off until I got to be very thin. When
I began taking Tanlac about two
months ago I just weighed one hun
dred and twenty-five pounds, but now
I weigh one hundred and fifty have
gained twenty-five pounds and am
still gaining. I can eat most any
thing I want without it hurting me
and I seldom ever have a pain of any
kind. I feel almost like a girl again
and while I am 61 years of age I can
do as much housework as lots of
women who are much younger than
I am. I certainly do give Tanlac all
credit for my wonderful improvement
and am willing to tell everybody
what I think of it."
Tanlac is sold in Omaha by Sher
man & McConnell Drug Co., comer
