Good Fortune Aided Her.

HOPES TO AID OTHERS.
Though She Had Become a rnysfcal
Wreck, Her Health
Was Restored.
"It is the grandest medicine there
ever was."
That's Tanlac,as Mrs Mamie Burgess,of
No 18 Saco St,Greenville,described
it.
"I was a physical wreck when I
began taking it, but three bottles
made me a well and strong woman,"
added Mrs Burgess. The endorsement
she gave of Tanlac is strong
and sincere, and she gave it because
she said, "I hope my giving this
statement will help some other woman
to find relief in Tanlac like it
gave me."
Mrs Burgess said she took Tanlac
because it had helped a relative of
H?rs Mrs T.illie Bureess. so much.
The latter mentioned Mrs Burgess
also had given an endorsement of
Tanlac for publication. Mrs Mamie
Burgess' endorsement follows:
"I suffered with indigestion so
badly that I just could not eat anything
at any time hardly, and especially
at supper, for I would almost
choke to death. It seemed that everj'thing
I ate lodged in my throat
and almost choked me and brought
on smothering spells. I was very
nervous and could not sleep. I had
no desire to eat and just had to
force down what I did eat.
"After meals my stomach felt like
it had fire in it. I belched a great
deal and my stomach always was
r A?i-i?i ? i,.*
SOUr. 1 was iruuuieu a iuv mm
heartburn, too. I had no strength
nor energy, and I could hardly do
my housework. I suffered a great
deal with dizzy headaches, and my
liver was out of order.
44A relative of mine, Mrs Lillie
Burgess, had been helped so much
by taking Tanlac that I decided to
take it,too. The Tanlac drove away
all my stomach trouble and gave me
^ a great appetite. I can now eat any1
thing I want and it does not hurt
B me. My nerves were quieted, and
ft the medicine built up my system so
much that I g"t to where I slept line
every night. It regulated my liver
and my system generally and banBH
ished those headaches.
4'Tanlac increased ray strength a
W lot and made me feel fine in every
f way. I am a well woman, I think.
r'T now recommend Tanlac because
it is the grandest medicine
there ever was. It sure is fine. I

Watch for Bands on Wilds Ducks
If you kill or capture a wild duck
bearing: an aluminum band around
one leg:, having a number on one
side, and on the the^other a statement
requesting that the United
States Department of Agriculture,
or the Biological Survey, be notified,
you are requested to send this band
at once to the Bureau of Biological
Survey, Department of Agriculture,
Washington. D C. This band, if accompanied
by a statement as to date,
place, and circumstances under which
the bird was taken, will be of service
to the Survey in its efforts to determine
the longevity of individual
ducks and the routes of migration
of the species. The bands are being
attached to conside'rable numbers of
wild duck of sevefal species which
have been cured of the duck sickness
prevalent around Great Salt
Lake, Utah, and there released. The
department is particularly anxious
to secure reports from these birds

RELIEVE HEADACHES
WITIW DOSING
By Applying Sloan's Liniment to
Forehead You Can Stop
the Severe Pains
.Many headaches are of a neuralgic
origin. The symptoms of such headaches
are intense and lingering pains
in the brow, temples or back of the head.
There is one certain relief that has
been known and recommended for
years back, Sloan's Liniment. One
application and the dull pain is practically
gone. It is easily applied without
ruboing. Rubbing is unnecessary, as
b loan's uniment quiciciy penetrates tc
the seat of trouble.
Aching muscles,rheumatism,bruises,
lumbago, chilblains, sprains and stifT

with Sloan's Liniment. Cleaner than

A Shrewd Move That,

Drougnt us i\ewara
By RAYMOND CAMPBELL
Alphonse eet the coffeepot close
to Sheldon's hand and retired to
the bar. The dinner rush was over,
and he was certain that no one
would come now until after the theaters
let out.
Meanwhile the two young people
at the table would surely chat for
half an hour or so, which time Alphouee
might spend with profit in
discussing with the fat bartender
certain nice points in the mixing of
fancy beverages.
Meanwhile hie two patrons sipped
their coffee, and Sheldon lit the
cigar that Alphonee had brought.
When he dined alone the cigar came
from the corner box on the five cent
end, but when the young lady came
Alphonse always brought a perfecto
from the box in the ice chest with
an elaborately casual "The usual,
monsieur."
This was intended to impress the 1
guest with the belief that Sheldon
habitually smoked fat perfectos
with red and gold sashes. Tonight
Alphonse's elaborate politeness was
ignored by the usually genial Sheldon.
"Now for the news," he began as
the waiter headed for the bar. <c[
couldn't wait for Saturday to tell
you, though it is onlv two days off."
"Isn't it funny that we always
fall back on Saturday night ?" commented
Bess. "I don't know when
we have been out to dinner in the
middle of the week."
"Never, I guess," agreed Sheldon.
"You see, Saturday is a sort of holiday.
I get my salary, and you get
your check from the publishers, and
we're both happy and content, even
ii not in agreement."
"We would be in agreement if
you would only stop considering a
proposal as an essential 'eature of
the Saturday celebration," reminded
Bess, with a show of severity. '
"You must go and spoil it all by '
proposing, Fred, when I've told you
long ago that to marry would spoil
my career. I am making a little
name for myself in the art world, 1
and I can't keep house and paint
too."
"And I've told you," retorted
Fred, "that I would not stop asking
you to marry me until you said (
Teg.' I guess I've proposed to you
sixty times in the last sixty weeks, '
Hess, and I'm good ior sixty umei ;
sixty if I have to hold out that
long/'
"Did you ask me out to dinner to 1
propose to me ?" demanded Bess.
"Not primarily," he admitted.
"What I wanted to tell you was that 1
my big chance has come at last.
Benny Groll has made a good contract,
and he needs a man to put a
little money and a lot of time into 1
the business. I have more experience
than money, but Ben wants '
me, and he'll give me a half interest
if I'll come in. It's what I've been
working and waiting for ever since
I came to town, Bess, and this is to '
celebrate my good luck."
A slender hand was stretched 1
across the table and grasped his .
own. 1
"Dear boy, I am so glad," she 1
said sincerely. "You have worked
hard, and you are entitled to your :
reward."
"Which is why I am going to
ask for it," retorted Sheldon. "I 1
am going to break my usual custom
and propose on Thursday instead of
Saturday, Bess. I want you to work
for, dear. It will be pretty hard
camping out with the construction '
gang and working on the job with <
the field corps. I want to come
back to camp every night and feel i
that I have done another good day's i
work for you." . 3
"Work, like virtue, should be its '
own reward." paraphrased Bess.
Sheldon shook his head impatiently. '
"I know all that," he said, "but 1
that sounds better than it works
oxit. I want to feci that when the i
job is done and Groll & Sheldon be- i
come a firm of importance Mr. f
Sheldon is proud of what her hus- '
band has done." 1
"I shall always be proud of what
you do, Fred," reminded Bess. "We
two are the only ones from the old
town in all this big city. We have
/\? OAlirCO T 1
<11 W{1 V3 UlTII I'll U 111?, tlJlll vi \,VU10V Ml
shall be proud of vour great achieve- j i
ments." M
"That's not what 1 want," said j !
Fred impatiently. "Of course I am j
going after this chance, no matter 1
what, and I'll work as hard without | 1
your promise as with it, hut it will <
lend sweetness to the labor, Bess, if! (
you tell me that I may work for;*
you. " 11
"Won't you take a career by! 1
proxy, dear ? Do you want to work . ?
to the end of yonr days and live
the loveless life ? Aren't there times
when you want to give it all up and
just stop worrying about checks
that publishers do not send and
canvases that don't sell, though you
know that they are as good as some
that bring big money ? Don't you
tire of your career sometimes, and
don't von feel as though it would
be nice to lot some one else do the
worrying?"
'"And if I do?" she asked, with
an odd little note in her voice.
"Then let me carry the burden."
he pleaded. "Let ine do the planning
for you. In sis months from
now 1 shall be at the top of the
heap and making money, but you
can make those sis months of toil
very pleasant, dear, if you will only
listen to your heart?and me."
"I hare listened to you," she reminded,
with a little laugh. "Why,
Freddy, there has not been a Saturday
night in more than a year that
you have not urged. me to marry
you. I'd like to, dear, but there is
my career."
"Does it all pay?" he demanded.
"Is it worth all the worry and the
contriving ?"
'Terhaps," she said uncertainly,
and Sheldon pressed the advantage.
"Wouldn't it be nice if you didn't
have to scrimp and scrape and plan
the spending of every pennv?" he
demanded. "Wouldn't it be nice to
have a real home instead of a three
room flat, to eat regular meals instead
of chafing dish messes and
to?well, to have me across the table
every night iustead of just Saturdays?
It would be our own table,
too," he reminded, "and not a table
d'hote."
"Perhaps."
It was spoken so low that Sheldon
had to lean^ across the table to
catch the whispered word. But he
did catch it, and his face beamed
satisfaction.
"And you will marry me?' he
cried delightedly.
This time he did not hear, but he
knew that the coveted answer had
been spoken, and he caught the
hand that toyed nervously with the
cup.
He spoke no word, for none was
needed. Their eyes told each other
messages that never have been put
into words, spoke a language that
only lovers know?and Sheldon was
content.
It was Alphonse whose discreet
but suggestive cough from the doorway
leading to the main room recalled
them to more earthly matters
and an unpaid check. Sheldon
drew a bill from his pocket and, laid
it upon the tray.
"Keep the change/' he said, "and
celebrate our good fortune." Then
Alphonse, helping him into his overcoat,
assured his radiant customer
in French and English that it should
be done.
Alphonse's thanks followed them
even out upon the street, where
Sheldon tucked Bess' arm into his
own with a new air of proprietorship
that the girl found very comforting.
"Fred," she whispered, "did you
know that I was tired and depressed
today?"
"I was only taking chances," he
explained, with a Iwppy laugh. "1
thought it out last night when 1
was almost certain that Benny
would put the deal through. I figured
that you always felt as I did
when you had money in your pocketbook
on Saturdays ? and that
you'd feel as I do two days before
pay day. It was worth taking a
chance by changing the day."
Bess patted his arm affectionately.
"I wish you had found that out
before," she whispered. "It is only
from Saturday to Tuesday that I
cared about a career."
Of and Off.
The grammatical use of the English
"of" and "off" proves to be a
stumbling block to the average foreign
element.
"Here's the paper you bought off
me," is the usual expression of the
newsboy, but it was a little startling
for a woman of more than necessary
embonpoint to be summoned
to the back door to hear, "Here's
the lard Mrs. Blank borrowed of!
of you."
More startling was the grieved
servant's retort when the master,
ifter vainly trying to dissect the
steak, angrily demanded, "Where in
blazes did you get this steak, anytvav
?"
"Why, I got it of! of William!"?

When a cold hangs on, as often
happens, or when you have hardly
gotten over one cold before you contract
another, lookout, for you are
liable to contract some very serious
disease. This succession of colds
weakens the system and lowers the
vitality, so that you are much more
liable to contract chronic catarrh,
pneumonia or consumption. Cure
your cold while you can. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy has a great
reputation. It is relied upon by
thousands of people and never disappoints
them. Try it. It only costs
a quarter. Obtainable everywhere.
