Quaker Minister Is
Grateful to Tanlac
Rev. Parker Moon
-
Nearly everybody |„ Southwest Mis-
souri either knows or hns heard of
tlia Itev. Parker &loon, who for a full
half century has devoted his life and
talents to Sunday school and organi-
sation work for the Society of Friends
•r Quakers.
“Uncle Parker,” as he Is more famil-
iarly known, came from fine old rug-
red Quaker stock, and there is not a
better known or more highly respect-
ed citizen In that part of the state.
In referring to his remarkable res-
toration to health by Tanlac, he said:
“About five years ago I suffered
• general breakdown. My principal
trouble was nervous Indigestion. My
appetite was very poor and my food
seldom agreed with ine, and I had to
live on a very restricted diet. I suf-
fered a great deal from headaches
and dizzy spells; I had severe pains
across (he small of my back and was
badly constipated most of the time.
In fuet, I was so weak and rundown
I was not able to attend to my fluties.
“This condition made me very nerv-
ous and I could not sleep at night.
Frequently I would lie awake most
•II night and was In that condition
more or less for five years. My phy-
sician said he could not do anything
for we and suggested a change of

climate. I then moved to Texas and
went back and forth three times, but
did not get the relief I had hoped for.
Finally, I got so had off I was not
able to get around with any degree
of comfort. I was also told I had
heart trouble.
“I had read about Tanlac and, as It
had been very highly recommended
to me, I decided to try It. I got a
bottle and had tnken only a few doses
until I could notice a marked Im-
provement In my condition. I noticed
especially that I was not troubled any
more with sour stomach after eating,
which was a great relief.
“I kept on taking Tanlac until I
fully regained iny health. My appe-
tlte Is splendid; I enjoy my meals and
I do not find It necessary now to take
any laxative medicines of any kind.
I can sleep much better und am not
nearly so nervous.
“I take great plensure In recom-
mending Tanlac to anyone who needs
a good system builder, or who suffers
with stomach trouble. I have recom-
mended Tanlac to a great many of my
friends and sin pleased to reach others
by giving this statement for publica-
tion.”
Tanlac Is sold by leading druggists
everywhere.

pie of U. S. Eorntous Sum,
Says Report.
Washington, Jan. 24.—Negotiations
between the Japanese and the United
States government for adjustment of
issues arising from anti-alien land
legislation by the state of California
were viewed as satisfactory and hope-
ful by Premier Hara and Foreign
Minister Uchida in addresses yester-
day at the reopening of the Japanese
Diet.
Premier Hara declared that the ex-
change views, now in progress
through Baron Shidehara, the Japan-
ese ambassador here, and Roland S.
Morris, the American ambassador to
Japan, were proceeding “in a most
friendly spirit for an amicable adjust-
ment of the question.” He added that
the Japanese government “was confi-
dently looking forward to a satisfact-
ory settlement.”
Foreign Minister Uchida, who de-
voted more attention to the negotia-
tions than did the premier, told the
Diet that “a frank and free exchange
>f views has been proceeding on var-
ious points Involved in the question.”
Regret was expressed by the for-
eign minister that as yet it was im-
possible to make public the result of
the discussions in Washington but
le added “that we can confidently
trust that an adjustment compatible
with the honor and interests of both
countries had finally been arrived at.”
Washington, Jan. 24.—Whiskey
consumption in the United States de-
creased from 89,641,985 gallons in
1917 to 5,581 553 gallons in 1920, the
first year of prohibition under the
constitutional amendment, according
to figures announced today by the
Anti-Saloon League of America. Con-
sumption of alcohol in the same years
decreased from 71,081,121 gallons to
22,639,355 gallons, the figures showed,
while beer consumption dropped from
60 817,397 barrels to 9,231,280 barrels.
“Granting that many millions of
gallons of alcohol and whiskey with-
drawn for non-beverage use have been
diverted to beverage uses,” said an ac-
companying statement by the league,
and granting that many million gal-
lons of beer have been made and con-
sumed illegally, a conservative esti-
mate shows that the people of the
United States have saved one billion
dollars previously spent for beverage
intoxicants.”
If Yoo Need i Medicine
You Should Havo the Best
Have yon ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
oi tight and are toon forgotten? The
reason is plain—the article did not fulfill
the promisee of the manufacturer. Thit
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy it
recommended by those who have been
'benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist saya “Take for
example _ Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
sults, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has ao large a
■ale.”
According _ to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
Used the preparation, the success of Dr.
Kilmer’s Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
oo many people claim, that it fulfills al-
most ever? wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
aanr troubles and neutralizes the uric
•cid which causes rheumatism.
