¥m : ,d fl H. ft, ffIUHDY, CHARLOTTE MERCHANT, CAINS 40 POUNDS Does Not Look • Like the Same Man Since Taking Tan lac. Terrible Suffering Is Overcome by "Master Medicine." Everybody in Charlotte and Mecklenburg knows Mr. A, H. Mundy, who owns and operates a large grocery business at No. 19 West Palmer street, this city. "If there ever was a believer in Tanlac," said Mr. Drum, North Carolina distributor of the fam ous medicine, "it is Mr. Mundy, as he talks atwut it all the time. Though he has a right to talk, as no medicine has ever helped him like Tanlac and he really do's net look like the same man," Here is Mr. Mundy's remarkable state ment; "I have taken five bottles of Tanlac and haye gained 40 pounds. If you don't believe it, right here I am, come and look at me. I don't know what my trouble was, but I was all run down and unfit for work, think though it must have been my stomach, as I had no appetite, and nothing seem to agree with me. I was also nervous and could not sleep good. I just kept going down and losing weight right along, and nothing did me any good until one of my custom ers suggested Tanlac. "Well sir, I tried it on his re- j commendation and it helped me j from the very first few doses. The medicine seemed tj take hold right &t once, and I began to eat better, sleep better ai d feel better right from the start, j If anybody wants to know what I think of Tanlac, just tell them to either come and see me or write me, for lam right here in Charlotte. Tanlac has simply made a new man of me, and I expect to tell all my friends what it has done in my case.'' "I have been leading a pretty active life for many years, but I tell you of late I wasn't hardly any good tor anything at «al!. My, but I wish I had known about this Tanlac long ago. It is certainly the medicine for build jqg qp run-down systems." Tanlac, the "Master Medicine,'' is sold in Hickory exclusively by the Menzies Drug Company and by the Freeze Drug Co., at New ton. Price SI.OO a bottle, three for $2.50, or six for $5.00, Death of Cicero Cline. After many months of feeble health Cicero Cline died at his home in Newton Friday about noon, in his 78th year. The fun eral was held Saturday by Rev. V. Fulmer and interment made in old St. Paul's graveyard. Mr. Cline is survived by his wife and eight children—Messrs. Perry, Lee, Bob. Bert and Phil lip Cline and Mesdames Alfonso Hilderb.and, James Bost and Wallace A, Bollinger, the latter of Statesville. In addition to these there are scores of other relatives, including a great num ber of grandchildren. Mr, Cline was a soldier of the 57th, Confederate, volunteers, and was wounded at Chancellors ville. He was rescued and nur sed by his comrade, Wesley Echard and ever afterward en tertained a warm friendship for Mr. Echard, who recently spent several day 3 with the ol 1 ma i. The Enterprise says during his late years Mr. Cline laboriously gathered a large amount of data about the Cline family from the pioneers down, in this and other counties and other States, tracing the family name through inter marriages with other names, and had it made ready for the press, a work that would be of sur passing interests to hundreds of people. His passing is regretted by many warm friends. He was a good man: "I was with him four years and never heard him Bwear an oath," is the testimony of one. There was a large gath ering at his funeral in the his toric graveyard.

Keep Ditches and Drains Open and Use Road Drag to/Prevent In jury by Freezing Weather. Water, not cold, is the cause of deterioration of roads in win ter. according to the road speci alists of the department. Cold weather does not in itself iniure roads, no matter whether they are earth, gray el, or macadam. In fact, an earth road will stand more traffic when it is solidly frozen than at any* ether time. Excess water, however, is always detrimsntal to a highway. When cold weather turns this water into ice. the damage that it does is greatly increased. Ice occupies considerable more space than the water from which it is formed, and every person who has lived in a cold climate is familiar with the powerful bursting effect of water when left to freeze in a confined vessel. The same action takes place when a wet road freezes to any considerable depth. It simply bursts, or, as we generally term it in read parlance, the road heaves. Later, when the frost leaves, the road is disintegrated and ruts badly. If this process is repeated a num ber of times during the winter, a gravel or macadam road may be practically destroyed, while an earth road may become en tirely impassable. A dry road will not heave. Rock, gravel, sand and even clay when perfectly dry contract slightly on freezing. In order ; to expand on freezing, these ma j terials must contain or be mixed I with water, and the more water ! they contain the greater the ex pansion which takes place. But so long as the road remains fro zsn tne damage does not become apparent. Hence the frcqaant and erroneous idea that it is the !thaw which injures the read. The injury was done when the water in the road froze and the particles of the road surface ! broken stone, sand, or still finer j particles of earth or clay—were l pushed apart by the expanding j power of the freezing water. The thaw merely allows the ice to melt and assume its original volume as water, The remedy is self-evident. Keep the water out of the roac. I The time to begin preventive measures is early in the fall be fore the rains begin. If the road goe3 into the winter thoroughly dry. with the surface and drain age in good condition, the chances are extremely favorable | that it will come out the follow ing spring. Keep the ditches and drains nper. Remove all accumulations of weeds, grass, etc., which tend to retain moisture and obstruct drainage. Furthermore, do this work early, while the ground is still dry and hard. Vegetation and litter hold water like a sponge and allows it gradually to soak in and soften the earth. The job before the road man is to keep the hard, dry surface formed in the summer time from becoming softened by the , fall and winter rains and snows. When the fall rains begin the earth or gravel road should b? dragged frequently to prevent the formation of ruts and the , CDllection of water. All travelled plae*3 on macadam surfaces should be carefully filled in and consolidated. During the winter, whenever a thaw is coming on, the cross drains and side ditches should be opened up as far as passible so as to prevent water collecting along the roadway. If the thaw is so pronounced that the road way is softened, the drag should be useJ; sometimes one round trip of the drag, with the hitch reversed, will entirely rid the earth road of slush and melting snow and leave the road surface practically dry. Don't get the idea that the drag is not needed on your earth and gravel roads in the Winter time. Instead, keep it where you can get it readily, for if the winter is an ordinary one you will need it many times. Winter destruction begins h the early fall. The best way to prevent such destruction is to forestall it. Keep the road dry and remember that so long as it remains so it will not be serious ly injured by frost. Keep the drains open, the ditches clear, remove all vegetation and litte r . : aid use the drag frequently. If * • i the road is kept dry to a depth of 2 feet below the surface there will be little trouble from the coldest winter. M m—mwm MM m—m Ttrst Cburcb Ipfrilatfca biotas SUNDAY. NOV. 7, 1915. Now that the fair is over, the Phila theas are congratulating themselves on the splendid results of their refresh ment booth which was open to the pub blic during the three days of . the fair. Something like SIIO.OO in clear profit was realized from the sales, and this will be used for an excellent purpose that of enlarging our class room. How ever we do not claim that it was through our efforts alone t'lat this good ly sum was taken in, but give credit to whom credit is due, namely, to the good people of Hickory and the neigh boring towns and community, who so freely patronized us, and we hope that in exchange for an honest dollar an honest dollar's worth was received. Beginning July 4, 1914, the class, divided into Reds and Blues, started on a trip to the exposition. The Reds, being the first to arrive, were consider ed the winners, and last Sunday morn ing they were presented with a hand some Bible by the Blues as a reward. Forty-eight Philatheas were present last Sunday, with 6 visitors.
