THE LAST DAY OF SUMMER The last day of Summer! Ah ! what have we dgne To make this Summer more blest? | Have we squandered its hours And wasted our powers With senseless song and jest? Have we sown one good seed Of wise, helpful thought In the heart of some dear child? Have we guided aright, In the dark of it's night. Some soul, with accents-mild? i Have we whispered one word of Of encouragement true, To cheer his tiresome way? V Have we strengthened with might His wish to do right By doing our best each day? MorJ^pgfitful, loving and kind. ' For we certainly know, As onward we go, S$ne?ad, needy hearts we'll find. fVio coprl that we sow ^There may not know That they fall into good ground, When life's Summer's o'er And we rest on the shore, In our Harvest Home, they'll be found, Sunday school.

Miss Madge Cleveland's Health was Very Bad-Operations Failed GAINS TWELVE POUNDS Her Mother Says Three Botties of Tanlac Gave Such Great Relief That It !s Hard to Believe It Is True. There really seems to be no limit to the number of cases wherein Tanlac, "the master medicine/' has given relief that can be considered truly wonderful. And the case of Miss Madge Cleveland, of 135 Main Street, Equinox, Anderson, S. C. considering the results Tanlac gave her,, takes rank with the most re? M cr. markable. Her mother Mrs. L. E. Cleveland, vividly described her daughter's long train of troubles . . T I and her many ailments, and expressed deep appreciation for the wonderful effect of Tanlac in building up her health and strengn. Mrs. Cleveland's endorsement of Tanlac and her statement regarding the case of her daughter follows: "My daughter, Miss Madge Cleveland, suffered from a number of ailmontfi _?nd hor svstem was badly run dovtti and' weakened. She had no appetite at all. and would eat scarcely more than one biscuit for breakfast. She had twice been operated on for tumor and appendicitis. The first operation was not successful and the second was necessary. As a result, her health was \ undermined and her condition be- i came very bad. "She was so weak she could' i hardly walk, and she was so restless at night that she really was very little refreshed when morning came. She would wake us at night many times with her groaning. She lost a great deal of weight, too. It was her side where the cuts were made when she was operated on that caused her so much pain. And. too, her system was generally out of or der. "She has already taken three bottles of Tanlac, and if I had not seen the improvement Tanlac made in, her condition, I don't know whether i I fully believe it could be so great, j should someone have told .me that, j She has gained 12 pounds and now! weighs 122 pounds?more than she has ever weighed before. She has! a very good appetite and it is stead-1 ily improving. Really I have told j her if she continues to increase the j amount of food she eats I will have j to make her stop taking Tanlac. j And what she eats nourishes her. '"Her health has improved in j ? every way and she is very much j stronger. She goes to sleep now j iust as soon as she gets in bed, and cho sWns snnndlv all niffht. Her1 Wf-" . , nerves are quiet and strong now; j thdudkfchey troubled her a lot be-j fore'^e began to take Tanlac. She used to have bad spells of headache, < too, but Tanlac broke them up and she has not had an attack since she began taking it. "Just before she hegan taking Tanlac, she decided to go on a visit; to Pell City, Ala., but was told shej could not stand the trip. But she left for that city just two days ago | in fine health, so great was the ben- j efit three bottles of Tanlac gave j her. "Tanlac is just a wonderful med-! icine, arid we can't say too much in j praise of it, and I certainly am glad j to recommend it. The Tanlac did ' her more good than any of the many j medicines she took."
