I find it tbethe most reliable reference work I hae ever used.
In the home where children are endeavoring to secure a liberal
education, The New International would prove of greatest value,
M the language is easily understood and the information authentic.
I cordially commend it to all parents who aim to enable their
children to secure useful knowledge, as the best preparation for
an enjoyable and useful future. WOODBERRY LENNON, at-torney-at-law,

To one who has investigated the real merits of the several En
cyclopedias now in use, there can be no question as to the stand
ing of The New International. I believe it to be the latest, ' the
most comprehensive, the most reliable, and the most useful Ency-1
clopedia published here or abroad. My appreciation of the nec
essity of having this great work accessible at all times, is evi
denced by the fact that while we have the same work in our High
miuui norary, yet i nave deemed it a good investment to place a
set in my home library for the use of Mrs. Cale and myself and
to enable my two sons, aged nne and eleven, who are in the 4th
anl 6th grades, respectively, to make more rapid and secure prog

have suffered from stomach trouble,
and when I commenced taking this
Tanlac. it was almost imoossible far
me to retain anything I ate,. I was
very nervous and never got a good
night's sleep, and finally got so weak
and rundown that I was hardly able
to get about. I often had dizzy spells,
and was bothered a great deal with
constipation.
"My physician certafnly knew
what he was doiner when he nrerrih-
ed Tanlac for me, for it has done the
work for me. as I am as healthv tiul
strong now as I ever was in my life.
In fact it has done much more for
me than I exrtected it would do. T
have a fine appetite and everything
I eat agrees with me perfectly, and
I never have the slightest sio-n nf
stomach trouble of any kind. I am
no longer bothered with constipation,
and never have those dizy spells any
more. I have retrained all mv
strength, too, and that nervousness
has left me, and I sleep like a log eve
ry nierht. In fact. I am simnlv pn.
joying perfect health again, and I
give Tanlac credit for it all."
Tanlac is sold by leading druggists
everywhere.
