ARE NOW 50-50
IN HEALTH RACE,
Tatilac Is Cause of Novel Contest
Their Games Create Interest.
Tanlac is responsible for a novel
race for regained health and hap
piness in the Luther home, 412
Wachona street, Winston-Salem.
Upon finishing the fourth bottle
between them William Luther
and his wife, Mrs. Pearl Luther,
stood 50-50 in their contest.
"We are both in the pink of
condition," Mr. Luther and his
wife united in telling the Tanlac
Man.
"Just a short time ago," the
husband continued, "1 was in a
rundown condition. I suffered
loss of appetite and from insom
nia. "And I," broke in Mrs. Luther,
"suffered stomach ills that came
Irom indigestion. Like Mr. Lu
t.ier, I suffered from sleeplessness
and loss of appetite. The litile
time 1 did sleep found me experi
encing fretful dreams."
"Not so now," man and wife
chorused. "Thanks to Tanlac
matiers have changed."
"While I have gained two and a
half pounds more than my hus
luiid, he has bested me in sleep.
The difference is not much, how
ever, and before long I hope to
catch up with him in this depart
ment of our race. Even now 1 am
sleeping better than I have in
years. We are even on the eating
pjrt as he and I have about the
same good, hearty appetite."
"We combine in recommending
Tanlac to sutferers, especially to
man and wife for we feel they will
derive the enjoyment that is ours
from our interesting health con
tests." This ideal spring tonic appeti
zer, blood and invigorant, is sold
only in Weldon by William M.
Cohen; in Scotland Neck by
E. T. Whitehead; in Roanoke Rap
ids by Hancock & House; in En
field by Harrison & Hall; and in
Littleton by Harrison's Drug Store.

COUNTY BOARDS OF ELECTION.
Named by the State Board In
Session Saturday Rule on
Senatorial Candidates -and On
Expenses of Candidates.
The State Board of Elections met
in Raleigh Saturday's and named
the various county boards of elec
tions. It also passed a resolution
with respect to candidates for
State Senator; ruled that the ex
penses of a candidate begins when
he takes his first step to secure the
office and not when he formally Hies
his official notice; a resolution that
the State board meet on the sixth
day of June, canvass the presiden
tial primary vote and wire the re
sult to the Democratic and Repub
lican National conventions officials.
The resolution relative to the
expenditure of money declares
that a candidate must report in his
expenses account all of the money
he has spent or that his friends
have spent for him in the further
ance of his candidacy, whether the
money was spent before or after
he files the notice of his candidacy
with the State Board of Elections.
The following was adopted rela
tive to senatorial candidates:
1. When a senatorial district is
composed of a single county, all
notices and statements of money
spent must be filed in the manner
required by candidates for county
officers.
2. When a senatorial district is
composed of more than one county
in the several counties composing
the district agree that a particular
county is entitle to name a candi
date, then the candidates in the
primary will run only in the coun
ty entitled to name the candidate
and the notices and statements of
money spent shall be filed as in the
case of county offices.
3. If there be a failure to agree
as to what county is entitled to
name the candidate, then candi
dates will have to run in all the
counties composing the district and
statements of money spent will
have to run in all the counties
composing the district and notices
and statements of money spent
will have to be filed as in the case
of candidates for State offices.
The County Boards of Election
for Halifax and adjoining counties
are as follows:
Halifax-Whit A. Johnston, Lit
tleton: Jacob P. Dickens, Halifax;
W. S. Saunders, Roanoke Rapids.
Northampton Garland E. Mid
yette, Jackson; B. B. Fennille,
Jackson; W. F. Outland, Woodland.
Warren S. G. Daniel, Littleton;

He was at his father's a few

ceived internal injuries. On last
Friday night lie had an internal
hemorrhage. The doctor was
called and he rushed him to the
hospital, where death resulted soon
after. Roanoke Rapids Herald.
What To Eat In the Spring.
March and April are the most
trying months of the year for the
housewife to know what to prepare
to eat. Early fruits and vegetables
for which the appetite craves are
not easily obtainable, besides they
are usually too expensive to have
on the daily bill of fare. For this
reason, too much of meats and
heavy foods are eaten in the spring
and are frequently the cause of
'spring fever" and that tired feel
ing common to the first warm days.

rysburg the automobile stalled upon
the road, and Mr. Rodwell got out
to crank it up. But before Mr,
Rodwell could do so the automo
bile ran backwards and turned
over into the ditch, catching the
occupants under it. Mrs. Cordle
had her arm badly sprained and
Mrs. Rodwell sustained slight in
juries, ine otner members ol
the party escaped with only a few
bruises. Their escape from death
or serious injury was most won
derful and they all feel thankful
that they came out of the accident
alive.

never comes, the good times we
are looking forward to lies as far
away as ever. All our life is spent
n meaning to overtake it and en
joy it. Meanwhile we ton, aruage
