WATSON—FEELS FINE
•f am seventy years old and have
taken a good many different kinds of
medicines in my life, but Tanlac comes
nearer doing all they say it will do
than anything; I have ever seen," said
lames M. Watson, a well known car
!>* nter who lives at Huena Vista. D.
Canada, while talking to a Tanlac
representative the other day.
"I had a general breakdown in
health about six years ago,” continued
Mr. Watson, “and my condition has
gradually been getting worse ever
since. In fact, T had gotten to where
I was so weak and run down that
when ! tried to do a little work
;iround the place I would get so ex
hausted that I would have to go to
bed and rest for several hours. My
nppetite wont back on me, too, and for
weeks at a time I could hardly eat
enough to keep me going. I also suf
lered from a pain in the small of my
hack nearly all the time, and this
trouble was so bnd at night that. I
could hardly ever get much sleep. In
fact, my back finally got so stiff ami
pore that I could hardly get around at
all. Many nights T have heard the
clock strike every’ hour, and when
morning came I was so exhausted I
could hardly get out of bed and dress
"That was the candition I was in
when I lomimenoed taking Tanlac.
Well, sir, you may say that it Is hard
to believe, but I actually felt better
in two or three days after I commenced
Liking this medicine, and I have been
getting in better condition every day
xim e. i kp.pt on taking Tanlac until
my troubles wore completely overcome.
1 am so strong and well now that I cah
work all day long. aj>d it doesn't seem
to tire me but very’ little. I have a
splendid appetite, and eat three big
meals every day, have gained a good
ileal in weight, and can just feel mv
strength coming back to me, The;
pain has left my back, and T sleep fine
every night. It has been four months
sinee I finished my last bottle of Tan
lae, but it puts mo In sueA fine con
dition that I haven’t felt the need of
any kind of medicine since, but if I
ever do. I will certainly buy Tanlac,
for I honestly believe it is the best
medicine on earth.”

LID PUT ON HYDER
“The lid has been damped upon
JTyiler, the dance halls are closed and
gambling and drinking have been de
clared illegal. When T left, ten days
ago. theie were about 125 people at
Hyih-r and about 100 at S'.ovvart, on
the British Columbia side. If Hyder
had remained wide oipen for three
more months that place would have
boosted of at least 20,000 people, but
now the last frontier town In Alaska
That, in short, is the story of Hyder
brought by H. A. Bowers, tonsorial
artist and mining man, who lias re
turned from the South, says the Cor
jdova Times.
"Old sourdoughs would have enjoyed
the sight in Hyder as I had first,"
said Mr Bowers. “The town was wide
open, whiskey and 7 to 16 per cent
beer was being sold at the many bars.
(5-iris were there, too, either dancing
or soliciting drinks at the bar. Pianos
were thumped, roulette, blackjack and
faro were being played.
"Then all of a sudden John Ronnn.
former senator from Seward, was ap
pointed deputy marshal, and he re
ceived word to close everything.
“Itonan went around and told the
various proprietors that the lid was on
and to forget the past.
“Bang! went the lid, and hundreds
could not get away from Hyder fast
enough. Many went to Stewart, one
mile away and just across the border.
There everything seems to be wide
“Hyder Is in a hard-rock territory.
It is a different camp from the placer
camps.. and all who think of going
there should be cautious.“
