"I never expected to be the strong, weir man I am today and my neighbors think my recovery is the most astonishing thing that has ever happened in this part of the country," said Hiram Robinson, a well known farmer, R. F. D. 3, Randolph, Illinois, in relating his remarkable experience, with Tanlac while in Shorthose drug store at Bloomington, recently. "I used to think no medicine could help me" he continued, "but I've got to hand it to Tanlac, as it has not only relieved me entirely of all my suffering, but has added nearly forty pounds to my weight besides. For eleven years I was hardly able to be up, much less work, and when I ventured to eat anything except broth and the very lightest of food I would put in a day of the worst misery imaginable. If I ate a piece of pie or cake or a little .fruit gas would form on my stomach and bring on such awful cramping pains that I could hardly stand itv This gas would press on my hearty nearly cutting off my breath, and cause such a dizzy, whirling sensation in my head that I thought I would go distracted. 1 dropped down all of forty pounds in weight and got so weak that I could hardly walk. At the time I i. m t 1 i i. 1 .vi- x - gui. xaniuc i nau nub ueen uuie lu do my work for a year, I was not only an absolute wreck physically, but my nerves were in such a shape that I couldn't lie still at night, and during the day I was just like a fish out of water. I was habitually con stipated and had such a hurting in my head just back of my eyes that I couldn't read at all. I was so nervous, weak and dizzy that I was actually afraid to drive a team to t town and had taken so many dif ferent medicines without getting any better that I had given up in utter despair. "But, one day I was persuaded by my wife to get a bottle of Tan lac, and right there is where my re covery started. If I should sit down here and talk or write for a solid week I couldn't tell how thankful I am. for getting out of my misery to where I can enjoy living again. I now eat all kinds .of meats, vege tables, pies and cake. In fact I eat like a wolf and enjoy every mouth ful, and never have the least trouble with my stomach. I sleep as good as I did when a boy and can do as much work as I ever could m my life. I used to lag behind the boys in the field, when I was, able to work-at all, but now they have to step some to keep tip with me. I am not a bit constipated and haven't ' had one cramp in my stomach since . Tanlac commenced to bring me out of the kinks. What I say is more than verified by my looks, but my neighbors will tell you the tame thing. -1 will never get through praising Tanlac." Tanlac is sold In Omaha and all Sherman & McConnell Drug Com pany's stores, Harvard Pharmacy and West End Pharmacy. Also For rest and Meany'Prug Company in South Omaha and the leading drug gist in each city and town through out the state of Nebraska. Adv. THIN PEOPLE SHOULD TAKE PHOSPHATE Nothln LOt Plain Bitro-PhophU to Put ob Firm, Health? Flesh and . to Increase Strength, Vlfor and Narva Force. Judging from the countless prepara tions and treatments which are contin ually being advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, develop ing arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft curved lines of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness. Thinness and weakness are often due to starved nerves. Onr bodies need more phosphate than is contained in modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this deficiency so well as the organic phosphate known - among druggists as bitro-phosphate. which is in expensive and is sold by Sherman A Mc Connell in Omaha and most all druggists under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back. By feeding the nerves directly 'and by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food elements, bitro phosphate should produce a welcome trans formational! the appearance; the increase In weight frequently being astonishing. Increase in weight also carries with It a general improvement In the health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of energy. which nearly always accompany - excessive thinness, should soom disappear, dnll eyes ought to brighten and pale theeka glow with the bloom of perfect aearth. CAUTION I Although bttro-phosphata ia wnsurpassed for relieving nervousness. Sleeplessness and general weakness, .it should not, owing to its tendency to In- crease weight, be used by anyone who does not desire to put on flesh. Adv. PAVING BONDS MUST BE SOLD AT par, re RULING Officials Consider Probabili ties of Investors Refusing to Pay Par for 5 Per Cent Paper. Read The Bee Want Ads for the bait opportunities 14 bargains, Is there a "joker" in the $3,000,000 county road paving act which was voted by the people at the special election Tuesday? This is a question that was asked at the court house yesterday, in the midst of the good feeling occasioned by the passage of the bond resolu tion at the election. Here's the state of facts: The election proclamation states that the bonds shall draw "not more than 5 per cent per annum inter est" 1 County Attorney Shotwell says the bonds cannot be sold at less than par. "Suppose the state of the bond market is such that bond houses don't care to pay par for a Douglas county bonds, what will become of the proposition then?" asked a busi ness man. "At the present state of the bond market," said County Commissioner Unitt, "there will be no difficulty in selling the Douglas county bonds at more than par. City and county bonds are selling at present so that they yield investors only from 4.30 to 4.50 per cent. Of course, we can't tell what will be the condition of the bond market by the time we sell these borids. But I think there is no doubt we con float these bonds at 5 per cent and sell them at a sub stantial premium or else make them 4 per cent bonds and sell them around par." "I think the bonds are safe," said County Commissioner O'Connor, "though there is the possibility that the bond market might become such that a 5 per cent bond could not be sold at par." Election Commissioner Moor head will start the official count of the vote Friday morning and ex pects to certify the returns to the board of county commissioners Saturday. Advertisement of the bonds will begin early next week.
