NEBRASKA FARMER
IS ENTHUSIASTIC
OVER THE RESULT
Rohwer Had Been Going Down
Hill for a Long Time
Tanlac Restores
Health.
In speaking of the marvelous way
Tanlac has relieved him of a long
standing case of stomach trouble and
other ailments, George A. Rohwer,
a successful farmer, living on R. F.
D. No. 1, Station B who was in
town the other day, said:
"I cannot praise Tanlac too much
for the good it has done me, and I
came in today especially to get me
another bottle of this wonderful
medicine."
Mr. Rohwer is living and working
on the same place, five miles west of
Omaha, where he was born thirty
five years ago, and his standing in
that community is too well known to
require further comment.
"For a long time now," he con
tinued, "I was in a mighty badly run
down condition, brought on by stom
ach trouble. I lost my appetite com
pletely and the little I managed to
force down would sour on my stom
ach and fill me up with gas till I was
miserable for hours afterwards. My
liver was out of order and inactive
and I was badly constipated all the
time. I suffered from such terrible
pains in my back that they seemed
to go all through my body, and my
neck and shoulders would ache so at
times that I could hardly stand it.
When I would go to bed at night I
iust couldn't lie on my back or on
either side, and was so racked with
pain at times that I could hardly
sleep at all. I lost weight right along
and felt so tired and wornout after
getting up in the mornings that it
was all I could do to keep going.
'Although I tried everything I
could get hold of nothing did me a
bit of good till I began taking Tan
lac' The relief I have obtained
through taking a few bottles of this
medicine is little short of miraculous.
My appetite picked up right from the
first and I was soon eating hearty
meals again and enjoying them like
I hadn't been able to do in the last
three years. I never have a bit of
trouble now with gas or indigestion,
and all those aches and pains I used
to suffer from so much are entirely
gone. I can go to the fields and
work hard all day, eat a good supper
and go to sleep as soon as my head
hits the pillow and sleep like a log
all night When I get un in the
morning I am full of energy and!
ready to latce noid again and put
through another day's work at what
ever is necessary. Those Tanlac
Tablets I have been taking are doing
their work, too, and my strength is
getting regular again."
Tanlac is sold in Omaha by Sher

16th and Dodge streets; 16th and
Harney streets; Owl Drug Co., 16th
and Farnam streets; Harvard Phar

Candidate for
Republican Nomination
For United States Senator
Congressman
Charles
The Aurora Republican, edited
by Clark Perkins, last week con
tained the following i editorial:
The Editor of the Republican favors Congressman Sloan for
the following reasons, which to us seem good and sufficient:
Mr. Sloan has been the Fourth, district's representative in con
gress for eight years, and he has always stood for constructive re
publican legislation. ,
His record shows that he has been for "America first," not
only in time of war, but in time of peace. His record on prepared
ness is the best of any candidate seeking the senatorial nomination.
Since war was declared he has met in every way the loyalty test of
the League of National Unity, which has been approved by the lead
ers of both great political parties.
Mr. Sloan has supported every measure asked of congress as a
war measure, and has committed himself to peace only when Ameri
ca and her allies can absolutely dictate the terms of peace. He has
two sons in military service.
He stands in a place of leadership in the republican party, both
in the state and nation. He is the only republican congressman
from Nebraska in its 51 years of history to attain membership on
the ways and means committee, the most important committee of
the house of representatives.
With large legislative experience, he has had his part in all
war legislation up to this time. He stands well with his colleagues, ;
who recognize his ability, his fairness, his staunch Americanism and
republicanism. He would at once attain a place in the senate and
on its committees that would be impossible fo.r a man who has had
no such experience.
He is more closely identified with agriculture than any candi
date for the senate, being actually engaged in conducting a farm.
On account of the work he has performed in congress for the agri
cultural interests of the state and nation, he is recognized in Wash
ington as one of the best posted men on all farm subjects.
He has always been loyal to the nation, to Nebraska and Ne
braskans, and to the republican party, whose nomination he now
seeks. '
He was first in the field, having announced his candidacy last
January, and he has done much of the pioneer work in crystalizing
sentiment for staunch American representation in the senate from
ctjr&skft ' ' i
His record has' been such that his majority has increased at
each election, until in 1916 he ran 10,000 ahead of his ticket His
record in all former campaigns indicates that he can be elected if
nominated. He is a "result-getter" in congress and a "vote-getter"
at home.
Republicans of Nebraska who believe in "America first," in
