VALLEY C. C.
HEADS MEET
Plan For State Medical Con
vention; To Issue Valley
Booklet
Plans for the convention of the
State Medical association to be held
here in May were discussed last
night in Mercedes at a meeting of
the Valley Secretaries association
made up of the different secretar
ies of the Valley chambers of com
merce.
A committee consisting of Myron
War dof Harlingen and John A.
Phelan of Mercedes was appointed
by G. C. Richardson, acting as
chairman of the meeting for the
purpose of compiling a booklet on
the Lower Rio Grande Valley, this
booklet to be mailed to all the
physicians in Texas. Dr. Primer of
San Benito, as a member of the
Valley Medical association, was ap
pointed to take charge of the ad
vertising for the booklet which is
to be solicited from the Valley
doctors.
The matter of contributions from
the Valley chambers of commerce
to the Tourist Bureau of the San
Antonio Conopus club was also
J taken up, as was also that of the
Canadian Good-Will tour which
visited the Valley March 2 and 3.
In regard to the later, Mr. Richard
son explained to the meeting that
the confusion that had resulted at
that time and which caused the
tour to ignore Hidalgo county was
no fault of Brow'nsville or of Cam
eron county, and he went on to ex
“Happiest Man In
Town”, He States
“I am the happiest man in town
how. I am up and going at five
thirty every morning and feeling
fine.
“I was lame and sore all through
my back, and had rheumatic pains
in both shoulders. I could hardly
raise my arms and every Joint felt
C. H. YATES
like it was tied in a knot. In the
mornings I felt like I just could not
get up.
“My appetite was away off and
my food disagreed with me. I was
nervous and could not sleep. I got
so bad off a few months ago' that I
was down in bed four weeks. I
spent lots of money trying to get
well, but nothing did me much
good. It took only a few bottles of
Sargon to fix me up and now I feel
great all over. My appetite and
digestion are good again. Those
rheumatic pains are all gone.
“I have suffered with constipa
tion for twenty years and had to
take a laxative every two or three
nights, but I have never found any
thing that stimulated the liver and
regulated like Sargon Soft Mass
PUls.
“You can bank on me telling oth
er people about the Sargon treat
ment. I have told a good many
people and will be glad to talk to
anyone that comes to me.”
The above statement was made
by C. H. Yates, of 1400 East Morphy
street, Fort Worth. He has lived
in that city for twenty years and is
well known.
Sargon may be obtained in
Brownsville from Cisneros Drug
Stores; in La Feria from Malone

from Butler Drug Co., and in Rio

Richardson to Make
Talk At Ceremonies
Of Air Line Opening
G. C. Richardson, manager of the
local chamber of commerce, is leav
ing by airplane at 3:30 this after
noon for San Antonio, where he
has been invitea to attend the ban
quet sponsored by the Texas Air
Transport Flying Service, Inc., in
connection with ceremonies of the
opening of the new passenger air
line from Fort Worth to Browns
ville.
A large crowd of men interested
in the development of aviation,
others representing important or
ganizations in the state, such as
chambers of commerce. Rotary, Ki
wanis, etc., together with city offi
cials from several of the larger cities
of Texas, are expected to be present
at this banquet which will take place
tomorrow noon.
At this banquet Mr. Richardson
will make a speech explaining the
relation of the great growth in avia
tion in this particular section of
the country. Mr. Richardson will
also emphasize the fact that the
northeastern part of Mexico is 500
miles further south than the north
western coast, thus bringing
Brownsville much closer to populat
ed Mexico than Laredo, El Paso or
San Diego, the three other impor
tant ports of entry on the Mexican
border.
Mrs. Richardson and J. E. Bell,
secretary of the San Benito Cham
ber of Commerce, will accompany
Mr. Richardson to San Antonio,
who expects to return to Browns
ville Sunday morning.
Are You Run Down,
Weak, Nervous?
To have plenty of firm flesh and
the ability to do a big day’s work
and feel “like a two-year old” at
night, you must eat three good
meals a day, relish your food and
properly digest it. If you can’t
eat, can’t sleep, can’t work, just
take a teaspoonful of Tanlae be
fore meals.
Mr. Joseph A. Culver, of 812 S.
Main St., Muskogee, Okla., says: “I
was a nervous wreck and forced
myself to work and eat. I felt like
quitting work before the day was
up. On taking Tanlae, my appetite
picked up so I could eat anything,
soon slept well and gained 10 lbs."
Tanlae is wonderful for indiges
tion and constipation—gas, pains,
nausea, dizziness and headaches. It
brings back lost appetite, helps
you digest your food, and gain
strength and weight. It contains
no mineral drugs; it is made of
roots, barks and herbs, nature’s
own medicines for the sick. The
cost is less than 2 cents a dose. Get
a bottle from your druggist. Your
money back if it doesn’t help.
