I "It is the best medicine I ever , took for stomach trouble, nervous ness and palpitation of the heart. 1 sure can praise and recommend it." declared Mrs. H. E. Lawter, of 11G William street. Spartanburg, in a statement she gave in endorsement ot" Tanlac, "The National Tonic," on February I, ID IT. "I suffered from very bad cases of indigestion, nerv ousness and palpitation of the heart," continued Mrs. Lawter. "1 could hardly sleep, and would just roi! and tumble for hours, and my nerves were so badly disturbed that I was kept miserable almost all the time. I could eat scarcely anything. What I did eat felt like bricks In my sto mach, and I had a kind of choking in chest after meals. "My heart fluttered a great deal, and this, I think, was partly caused by the great quantity of gas that formed on my stomach. "Finally, I decided to try Tanlac, as it had helped so many others who had troubles somewhat like minc, and now I am not bothered" with sto mach troubles, thanks to Tanlac. I feel a great deal better in every way, too. My nerves are much stronger and steadier^ and I used to got so nervous that I jumped when any one spoke to me. I'm certainly not that way now, as Tanlac has relieved those nervous troubles and I havo not been bothered a bit with palpi tation since I took the first bottle of Tanlac. "I feel fine now In many ways and I sure can praise Tanlac and I give it credit for tho change In my condi tion.

Buy War Sayings Stamps Tho Heul German Drive*. (Greenville News.) "The real German drive is back of the lines-the ever-increasing pres sure of the population for relief from tho almost unbearable burden im posed by the war," the New York World declares. The organ of the Krupp Interests, Rhelnisch-Westfalslcho Zeitung, is calling on the German people to "go barefoot this summer and help the Fatherland." "In view of the alarming scarcity of labor," it goes on, "rich and poor alike should dis penso with boots and shoes." Gorman newspapers lately recolv ed in the United States contain ad vertisements of thc new drug pro duced by Dr. Ehrlich and Dr. Lener to subdue tho pangs of hunger. It is praised as "an oxcellent prepara tion to still tho premature feeling of I hunger and thirst, or when food is not forthcoming at tho proper timo." The public is admonished that "it is not a substitute for tho dally mini mum of nutrition, but is used with tho greatest success by persons who are made ill by hunger between ni ea ls." In Simplicissimus is printed a long list of the pharmacies where these tablets can be bought, including If? places in Berlin alone. "When the population of a great Bm pi re reaches a stage in war in which it is urged to go barefooted In order to save leather and its scien tists begin to produco patent nos trums to overcome tho feeling of hunger, its military autocracy is bound to fight with greater and greater desperation in tho effort to obtain some sort of decision that will satisfy the people," says the World. The Gorman general start' expresses its own judgment ns to the serious ness of the situation hy the effort it is making to break the" allied lines regardless of cost. Hunger and des titution at homo arc enemies no less to ho. dreaded than the ever-increas ing forces of tho allies. No doubt the dispatch of U-boats to lurk s round the shores of America was mainly intended to stir tho pride and patriotism of tho Huns at home and allay their unrest. - Tho bagpipe was known in long land and Ireland as carls as tho twelfth century and is believed to have Peen in existence before the Christian ern. .J??J..J?.T.?J?.J..J?.T..T.

I can't go to work, for what would my friends think of mo if I did? I don't know what will be come of me."
