MiLK, SHE SAYS
Kansas City Woman Gains
.... Fifteen Pounds by Taking
' ; TanlCan Eat Any
, thing Now.
"I can recommend Tanlae be
cause, since taking it, I feel better
; than I have in years and I believe
if it helps me it will help others,"
said Mrs. 'Flossie Ruck, who lives at
917 Argentine Boulevard, Kansas
City, Mo., while talking to a Tanlac
representative the other day.
"When I commenced taking Tan
lac," continued Mrs. Ruck, "I had
tried about every other, medicine
that I had heard recommended for
the kind of troubles I was suffering
from, and instead of getting any re
lief, I had gradually gotten worse
all the time. My stomach was in
such bad condition that even a glass
of milk would cause me to suffer
agonies after drinking it For more
than a year I had not been able to
eat anv substantial food, and this.
together with all the suffering I
, underwent, had gotten me in such
a weak, run-down condition that I
just had to stay in bed nearly all
the time. I suffered a lot from
headaches, too, and had a dull,
heavy pain in the small of my back
all i the time. v Would often get so
dizzy that I couldn't stand on my
feet. My entire system was badly
run-down, and my blood got so thin
that mv feet and hands were cold
in the hottest kind of weather.
finally got so bad off that I had to
be under constant treatment, and
sven then I didn't ga any better.
"That was the condition I was in
when I began taking Tanlac, and I
had almost given up hope of ever
being a well woman again. After
taking Tanlac for about a week, I
could see that I was improving, and
mv family noticed it, too. My appe
tite picked up right along, and in a
ihort time I commenced to eat things
that I wouldn't think of eating be
fore I took Tanlac, and I didn't have
anv trouble from it afterwards.
; Well, I. just kept on taking Tanlac
until I have now used seven , bot
tles, and am enjoying as good health
as I ever did. Why, I have actually
gamed fifteen pounds already, and
am so well and strong that I can do
all my housewojk by myself, and
look after my four children, and it
, dosen't hurt me at all. My stomach
see'ms to be inv perfect condition,
md I" now eat just anything the
est of the family eats, and I don't
know what it is to have indigestion
' or sour stomach like I did before I
" took this wonderful medicine. I
sleep like a child every night, and in
fact, Tanlac has completely over
. 'ome my troubles and I am a well,
happy woman once more."

"I have a surprise for you, de
clared Robert Cowell yesterday.
"I have retired from business, I
have prepared this little statement
to announce the fact:
"Starting in business at an age
when most boys are still engaged
with marbles and hoops, I have just
completed 50 years of active life.
Forty years of this time have been
spent in this country and $2 of them
in this city. It is no light thing to
sever a connection which has been
in effect for a generation, nor is
it easy to part from those, with
whom I have been associated
through storm and sunshine shar
ing in hard times incident to crop
failure, panic and tornado, I take
pride in having some little share in
Omalia's marvelous development
and prosperity We leave soon for
the east to welcome home our
daughter, and then look forward to
a period of rest and play together.
To all of the employes I take this
means of saying good bye; for I
could not trust myself to say this
to you in person. Ours was like a
family and I like to feel that we
were always interested in each other
as we grew older together. I want
to thank you all for cheerful and
loyal service, and will ever be con
cerned in your welfare and happi
ness. During the years it has also
been my privilege to make hundreds
of friends among the customers who
made our store their trading home.
I will not sav -Stood bve to these for
after a season of rest and recreation
we all hope t come back ad spend
some portion at least of each year
in our home city.
I have reached the period in my
life when I find that only real jgy
comes from service, helpfulness to
ward others, ,and in my remaining
years, whether they be many or
few, I intend to take an interest in
whatever may be for the public
weal. To all of my business
acquaintances and friends, I wish
to express the most kindly feeling.
I know what it is to be misunder
stood and even nialiged I can
truthfully say, however, that I lay
down my cares and responsibilities
without any bitterness toward any
living soul. Conscious of my own
infirmitees and short comings, with
malice toward none, I hope I may
have a continuance of the good will

and consideration of those, whose
friendship I have appreciated so
much, and for so long a time. Dur
ing recent years some of my oldest
and dearest friends have passed
away. Each time it meant a sore
heart tug, I am not sure, however,
but that nature is kind in Jhis in
lessening the number, we have to
leave when our times comes.
"Our business will be continued
by Mr. Cowell's business associ
ates," said William F. Baxter, speak
ing for the Thomas Kilpatrick &
Co. store, "and by his associates I
mean to include the large number of
old and loyal employes as well as
those who were active in the busi
ness with Mr. Kilpatrick.
"We appreciate keenly the part
ing, as we all customers, too will
miss the cheerful helpfulness of Mr.
Cowell's presence, always an inspi
ration and encouragement. We
recognize his wish to retire from
business cares as a legitimate and
proper one and are glad our busi
ness is in such a prosperous and
satisfactory condition that this was
a very simple matter."
A general strike of all union
teamsters and truck drivers in Oma
ha was called yesterday by the
Teamsters and Truck Drivers local
No. 211. Only ice men will be ex
cepted, it was said. Men who re
turned to work following conces
sions made by their employers will

declared.
The strikers say 2,000 men will be
affected by the new order. Union
officials say employers have refused
to miet with a committee of the
strikers. ,
Five strikers were arrested yester
day morning by police following the
affray Monday in which more than
20 striking boilermakers ana al
leged strikebreakers were engaged.
Two of the men arrested are strik
ing teamsters, charged with interfer

Dairy Co. wagon at Thirty-second
and Dodge streets early westerday
a. m. Strikers have been emphatical
ly warned against such acts after a
similar occurrence last week, they
said.
Five men approached the wagon
while the driver, C. I. Fredrickson,
a discharged soldier, was away mark
ing a delivery, lhe men followed
exactly the satire procedure as last
week, when an Alamito wagon was
overturned at Twenty-fourth and
Paul streets. The horse was un
hitched and the vehicle pushed over
on its side. Nearly all of its con
tents were destroyed. The wagon
was also damaged.
Approximately 40 painters were
out yesterday iollowin the re
fusal of a few of the smaller com
panies to grant them a wage in
crease of from 6 to $7 a day. ,
Four Strikers Arrested.
Four striking teamsters and truck
drivers were arrested last night at
Union station for an alleged attempt
to interfere with an Omaha taxicab
driver.
According to Officers Caldwell,
Steaderman and Ryan, who made
the arrests, the four swung a large
touring ear across the runwav into
the Union station from the viaduct,
blocking the progress of the taxi
cab. They are also accused of
threatening the driver of the cab.
The four men are F. Struppiih,

orderly conduct and with violating
the strike injunction.

$300 bond," and the other three in
default of $100 bonds.
Officials of the street car men's
local denied that a sympatheti
sltike with the teamsters and truclf
drivers was pending. No special
meeting has been called, Gus
Jennison, business agent for the
union, declared last night. k
