WILL PRAISE IT
TILL SHE DIES
Mrs. Flanigan Would Be Cover
ed With Cold Sweats and
Have to Gasp for Breath.
"I'll praise Tan lac the longest
day I live, and so will my daugh
ter, Elsie, for it's simply won
derful the way the medicine has
helped us," said Mrs. M. J. Flan
igan, 104 Claiborne street, Nash
ville, Tenn., whose husband is a
well-known employee at the T. C.
R. R. shops.
"I suffered so much with cold
chills and smothering spells that
it's a wonder I'm here today to
tell the tale," continued Mrs.
Flanigan, "and if it hadn't been
for Tanlac I don't know that I
would. It was three years ago
that I had the first one, and .1
have had them off and on ever
since. My heart would thump
like a trip hammer and then act
like it was going to stop beat
ing; and after that would wear
off I'd get so nervous I could
hardly lie still, and sometimes I
would turn right blind.
"At other times I would be
covered with cold ? sweat and
would have to be covered up for
hours before I could get warm,
and then I would get so hot they
would have to raise me up in
bed and fan me to keep me from
smothering.
"I would have lumps come in
my stomach that felt just like
a rock, and no matter how much
I was doctored or how much
medicine I took, I couldn't keep
these spells off, and nobody will
ever know how I suffered with
them.
"While I was taking the very
first bottle of Tanlas that knot
failed to appear after I'd eat, and
I kept right on till I had taken
three bottles, and yon never saw
anybody in your life pick up and
begin to eat like I did. I got so
nothing disagreed with me, and
the chills, hot spells and blind
ness have never come back.
"That was three months ago,
and I've just kept on getting
stronger and stronger and I
know I weigh at least twenty
pounds more than I did. Before
I took it I could hardly lift a
broom, let alone do- any real
work, but now I can do every
thing about the house, and you
just ought to see me getting
weeds out of my garden.
"My daughter, Elsie, was all
run down and had no appetite
when she began to take Tanlac,
but now she's cashier at a pic
ture show and is able to work
ten hours a day. It's built her
right np and she thinWfe it's the
finest medicine in the world."
Mrs. Pate, a neighbor, came
in while Mrs. Flanigan was mak
ing her remarkable statement,
and said: "Really, I have never
seen anyone build up as fast as
Mrs. Flanigan has since she be
gan taking Tanlac. It's simply
wonderful."
Tanlac is sold by all druggists.

THE GREAT WAR HAS MADE
CIGARETTES A NECESSITY.
"Our boys mast have their smoke*.
Send them cigarettes!" This ia a
familiar appeal now to all of us.
Among those most in demand ia
the no* famous "toasted" cigarette? .
LUCKY STRIKE. Thousands of this
favorite brand have been shipped to
' France. There is something home
like and friendly to the boys in the
tight of the'familiar green package*
with the red circle.
Thi* homelike, appetising quality
of the LUCKY STRIKE cigarette ia
largely due to th* fact that the Burley
tobacco used in making it has been
toasted. "It's toasted" waa the "slo
gan" that made a great snccwa of
LUCKY STRIKE in less than a year.
Now the American Tobacco Co. ia
making 15 million LUCKY STRIKE
Cigarette* a day.
A good of this immense pro
duction is making tta way across the
water to cheer our boys. The Red
Cross has distributed thousand* of
LUCKY STRIKE Cigarette*.

FACTS IN CASE
Says Wife Took Man tone And
Gained Same Aa He
Did On It
Here's another instance where
two members of the same house
hold took Mantone, gained on it
and consequently enjoy greater
health and happiness.
The story is told in the words
of Officer J. A. Swearinger:
"When Mantone was recom
mended to me I suffered from
nervousness, loss of appetite and
a torpid liver. Soon after tak
ing this great non-alcoholic
nerve, blood and brain tonic I
was back in tip top shape.
"Mrs. Swearinger also needed
a good tonic and, seeing what
Mantone did for me, she started
on it. I am glad to say that it
already has proved of equally
great value in her case.
"For the sake of sufferers
whom I know Mantone will help
I offer this testimony," ended
Mr. Swearinger, who is a promi
nent member of the Florence. S.
C., police department.
Mantone?"Makes You Feel
Good All Over"; is sold at all
drug stores,
drug stores, including Z. V. Bel
lamy ; Murfreesboro, T. H. Nich

serious import begins suddenly or In
sidiously, and the appetite falls off?
Nature striving to rest the body meta
bolism, perhaps, by giving the organs
less work to do. The Impairment of
appetite, however, Is apparent to the

HOW TO STRETCH A FOUND
OF BUTTER.
In this day when the price of
butter is soaring around 60 cents
per pound any suggestions for
making it do more are most wel
come to the housewife. Mrs.
Josephus Daniels has tried the
following plan of increasing the
family butter supply with the
happiest results and has turned
it over to the Division of Home
Demonstration Work. This Di
vision has also tried it, states
Mrs. Jane S. McKimmon, found
it good, and in turn, hands it to
the public that it may enjoy a
thickly buttered slice of bread
almost at the same cost that it
did a thinly buttered one.
Here is the recipe. Cut a half
pound of butter into small pieces
and put into a bowl and keep in ^
a warm place until soft but not
oily. Heat one cup of milk just
to the boiling point, remove and
cool until luke-warm. Beat the
milk into the butter with an egg
whip, pouring in a little until all
has been taken up. The result
ing mass will be light -and
creamy and will taste very much
like butter fresh from the churn.
The color of this butter will, of
course, be much lighter than the
original pat and will be Jess salty.
If a salty flavor is desired more
may be added.
It is needless to say that this
product will not stay fresh very
long. It is advisable therefore,
to keep it upon ice and to whip
up only as much as will be con
sumed in one or two days. But
ter balls cannot be made of this
product as they will fall to pieces
in the making, but it caiftlbe
molded and cut in squares. Try
it; you will And it good and eco
nomical.
ALL EFFORTS TO FIND
RELIEF MET SAILURS
SAYS THIS MISSIONARY
Well Known Mission Worker of
North Carolina and Florida
Says Peplas Has Installed
New Life In Her.
For ten years a sufferer from
nervousness and indigestion and
unable to find relief in any medi
cine, Mrs. May A. Gurganious of
1011 Castle Street, Wilmington,
states that upon the advice of
interested friends she consented
to give Peplas a trial, with the
hesult that today she is well on
, the road to perfect health.
Mrs. Gurganious is well known
as a Missionary of the Gospel,
not only in North Carolina, but
in Florida as well. In both of
these States she has been a
prominent figure in the work of
spreading the doctrine of Chris
tianity.
In commenting on her expe
rience to the Peplas expert, Mrs.
Gurganious said: "It's wonder
i ful just what two bottles of Pep
lac have done for me, I am feel
ing now like a new woman and
that new life has been installed
into me. I get up in the morning
feeling refreshed and ready to
1 anything the day may bring
i forth. It's a pleasure for me to
dress my little girl and get her
off to school and then take up
my household duties, something
I haven't been able to do for al
most ten years."
uwinsr to lier oonunuer in ,.s
health, Mrs. Gurganious found it
impossible to continue her relig
ious labors and had to give them
up sometime ago. Now however
taking science, she began taking
Peplac, her health is so improved
that she hopes to take up this
good work in which she finds so
much pleasure.
Peplac. the ideal reconstruc
tive tonic, appetizer, blood and
system purifier and, invfgorant
hwich is spreading health among
so manv men and women of
North Carolina is sold and rec
ommended by Z. V. Bellamy. Try
a bottle: it will do all that )n
claimed for it.
