WITHOUT RESULTS
Tried Treatment for Three Years
but Couldn't Get Relief.
HER HEALTH RESTORED
*^ ven My Own Folks Are Astonished
That I Am Able to Do My
Housework," Says Mrs.
Blalock.
One of the most sensational state
ments yet published In connection
with Tanlac, was made by Mrs. V.
Blalock, residing at 104 Crawford
Street, Houston, Texas, a few days
ago, who said :
"I suffered so much from rheuma- |
Ü8m and stomach trouble for the past
three years that I became despondent
and sometimes felt that life was hard
ly worth living. I had a distressed
feeling In my stomach no matter what
or how little I ate. My chest was full
of pain, my heart acted peculiar and
I could hardly get my breath at times.
I was tired all the time and felt so
weak and miserable that I could hard- !
ly stand on my feet.
"Do you know I spent something
like four thousand dollars during
those three years for treatments and
medicines of various kinds but found
no relief. I started taking Tanlac
and began to Improve with the first
few doses and even my own folks are
now astonished that I am able In so
short a time to do my own housework.
Somehow It just seemed to suit my
case exactly and It makes me happy
to think how perfectly my health is
being restored. I can eat anything I
want now and am not troubled any
more with shortness of breath or other
signs of Indigestion. I have already
gained five pounds In weight and am
Improving every day."

"SKYLINE" LOGGING LATEST
Modern Methods of Western Camps

In the logging camps of Oregon and
Washington a "Skyline" method of log
ging Is proving much cheaper and more
efficient than the former method ot
dragging out logs from the forest b>
a donkey engine and cables operating
on the ground, says Popular Meehan
leg Magazine. The skyline plan is to
run a cable through blocks or pulleys
, suspended at a great height on glam
so as (0 f nnn a sor t of trolle.'

The donkey engine which operates
! the skyline has five drums. Including
; two for main lines and two for trip
lines. The top cable, from which the
log Is suspended, is one of the main
lines, while the other Is used to haul
the log. In operation the top cable
is lowered with Its Mock, or trolley,
directly over the logjto be picked up:
it Is then pulled taut, raising the log
with It by means of a "choker," or
! steel tongs. In the air a log can. of
j course, be moved much faster than on

How Women Fish.
It doesn't serve to mellow a man's
disposition to take a woman or two
into the boat when he goes bass fish
ing. For women always want to fish,
vet never could they or would they
stick those horrid, nasty, wriggling
mgleworms on the hook. So. between
.silting their hooks and removing the
perch and pumpkin seeds and strain
ing your spine to keep the boat from
turning turtle and the lines from get
ting snarled up, you have a most en
joyable outing, do you not? Yes, you
do not! I'll run the risk of answer
ing that question for you, "Zlm" writes
in Cnrtoons Magazine. And then, when
you finally hook a five-pound bass
weighing at least three pounds and
eight ounces by his own standard
scales, and play him for twenty min
utes against their earnest entreaties
not to bring that big, ugly thing into
the boat or else they'd jump out!
vou calmly ease up on the line and
give him slack, also his freedom, do
you not? Yes, you do not! And when
the day Is spent, they tell you what
a gorgeous time they have had and
make you promise to fetch them again,
nnd you promise, of course, do you
not? You do like—heaven.
