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."

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.
