During the first ten weeks of last

World's record for the sale of
proprietary medicines up to that
time. This record now pales into
insignificance, however, as orders
received during January alone of
this year reached the astonishing
total of One Million Two Hundred
and Twenty Thousand bottles, show
ing an increase of approximately
one hundred per cent over the cor
responding period of 1919.
To say that Tanlac now has the
largest sale of any medicine of its
kind in the world "expresses it mild
ly. It does not begin to tell the
story for no other preparation has
ever even approached the marvelous
record that is now.being made by
Tanlac; and it is now conservatively
estimated that the sales for the
nresent year alone will amount to
from seven to ten million bottles.
Of the orders received during
January it was possible to ship only
eight hundred and thirty-eight thou
sand bottles, and thousands of deal
ers scattered throughout the United
States and Canada have been un
able to obtain the medicine for
weeks.
"Phenomenal and Bewildering" is
the way one of the big drug jobbers
of the country describes the mar
velous demand for Tanlac.
"We know that the day of
miracles has passed, and we all know
that there are no unfathomatwe
mysteries in the drug business, but
this Tanlac proposition smacks of
both" writes another leading whole
sale druggist, whose firm has sold
over 34 car loads, or an average, of
nearly one car load per month since
they began handling Tanlac a few
years ago. Thousands of similar let
ters' and telegrams have been re
ceived, but for lack of space they
can only be referred to briefly.
Most proprietary medicines are
sold by the dozen or by the gross:
a few are bought by the trade in
quantities of from ten to twenty
gross; a very few are sold by the
car load, and then bnly to the larg
est jobbers, covering extensive ter
ritories. The fact therefore that
scores ofjobbers in this country
and Canada have a demand suffi
cient to justify them in ordering
not one car load, but from two to
three car loads of Tanlac at a time
makes Tanlac's pre-eminence in the
field of medicine all the more note
worthy. It is the biggest thing of
its kind in th world and nothing

Washington, Feb. 16. Wilson
Welsh Adams, an American, has
been captured by bandits in Zacate
cas, Mexico, and is being held for
50,000 'pesos ransom, the State de
partment was advised today.
Adams' home is in Los Angeles,
where his wife and child now live.
The American embassy at Mexico
City has been, instructed by the State f
department to bring the kidnapping
to the attention of the Mexican au
thorities with the request that every
step be taken to secure Adams' re
lease. The American representatives at
Saltillo and Monterey, in reportiftg
the incident, said the authorities in
Zacatecas were endeavoring to learn
the whereabouts of Adams and his
captors and that three columns of
Mexican troops had been sent out.
The kidnapping occurred at v

were reported to have looted the'
warehouse of the Providencia mine
operated by the Minerales and

Washington, Feb. 16. President

Mr. Payne has been nominated to

like it has ever happened in the
drug trade before.
Think of one retail firm selling
one-third of a million bottles of any
one medicine right over the counter
direct to consumers in only two
years' timel It seems incredible, but
such is the record made by the Owl
Drug company, through their retail
stores on the Pacific Coast.
Think of one retail .firm in a
single city of 200,000 population,
selling approximately eighty-eight
thousand bottles, an average of over
two bottles for every family, in only
four years' time! Such is the rec
ord of the Jacobs' Pharmacy Com
pany of Atlanta.
Think of one retail firm "giving a
single order for an entire car load,
twenty-three thousand and forty
bottles, and agreeing to pay cash
for the goods promptly on arrival.
Such an order has been received
from the Lewis K. Liggett company
of Winnipeg, Canada.
Another big Canadian retail firm,
G. Tamblyn, Limited, Toronto, Can
ada, recently gave their order for
one hundred gross, amounting to
$10,800.00.
Orders from retailers for from
fifty to seventy-five gross are not
uncommon, and practically all of
the leading retail firms buy Tan
lac in from ten to twenty-five gross
lots to supply their normal demands.
When the magnificent newabora-
tories at Dayton, O., and Walker
vine, Canada, with a combined floor
space of seventy thousand square
feet and combined capacity of .
thirty-six thousand bottles wero
completed, it was thought that the
production would be sufficient to
supply the demand for years to
come. It is now apparent, how
ever, that additional facilities must
be provided if the supply is to keep
pace with the demand.. And this
is true in spite of the fact that
there are now on the market, from
fifty to one hundred preparations
claiming similar therapeutic value.
Tanlac has now been on the
market for five years. It has stood
the acid test of time. It is known
and honored in every city, town,
village, and hamlet on the Ameri
can continent from Key West,
Florida, to the northern wilds of
Canada, where even the Indians and
