WAS UNABLE TO WALK AT TIMES, SHE SAYS I TO MOVE AROUND SHE HAD TO PUSH A CHAIR BEFORE HER HAD TRYING EXPERIENCES Mornings Were Miserable for Mrs. Durham, But the Afternoons i Brought Her More Comfort Though she had suffered with rheu Imatism so badly she could not walk at times during three or four years, and had been troubled a great deal i with a number of other ailments, 1 Mrs. J. T. Durham, of 2210 S Main St, Anderson, declares that "Tanlac - relieved my rheumatism and other . troubles and got me in good shape in three weeks, after a lot of other modj icines had failed to help me." i "I suffered with rheumatism so i badly I could not walk at times," dej clares Mrs. Durham, "and for several r hours every morning when the rheu. matism was particularly bad I would have to sit in a chair after being e helped from my bed, and then my ] muscles would get so I could move _ around by pushing a chair before me. g I generally was able to get around 8 enough to get dinner, though I could never get breakfast. "One of my legs was badly drawn, and I hurt all over and suffered tora ture. I had rheumatism badlv for three or four years, but I had been s in bad health for about nine years, ^ when I began to take Tanlac. 1 al so was troubled a great deal with j .indigestion and headaches, and my I nerves were almost 'gone to pieces.' I could not sleep well, and my system was weak and run down and 1 felt J tired out all the time, i "The Tanlac soon got me where I could do my housework, for it quickly relieved the rheumatism and that drawing in my leg. I am strong and I feel well now. Tanlac certainly is a fine medicine for rheumatism, I think. I very seldom ever feel a pain in my body now, so well did Tanlac break up the rheumatism. "The medicine also built up my system in general, gave me a fine appetite and relieved the indigestion. I could not eat anythng hardly when I began taking Tanlac, but it got me so I could eat anything I wanted. I can sleep well now, and the Tanlac relieved the nervousness. I sure do feel fine, and the improvement in my I condition is due to Tanlac." 1 Tanlac, the Master Medicine, is sold 1 by The Chesterfield Drug Co., Chesterfield, S. C.; T. E.

AMERICAN PRIVATE HANGED FOR CRIME IN FRANCF Washington, Dec. 3.?The execution of Private Frank Cadue, of the infantry, for the rape and murder of a 7-year-old French girl, in France on November 5, has been approved by the war department. Cadue was hanged after sentence by military court martial. The rec' ord of the trial says he confessed to the crime and pleaded that being un-v der the influence of liquor he did not know what he was doing. uauue's was the first cast- of the kind to occur in the American army abroad. A woman 90 years old has written the woman's committee of the Council of National Defense asking for war work because, she says, "My son is too old to be a soldier." A girl of 9 years wants to go to France as a messenger in the Red Cross seivice. CITATION NOTICE The State of South Carolina, County of Chesterfield. uy M. J. Hough, Probate Judge.
