THE LAMPASAS DAILY LEADER
RELIEF IS WORTH I THEIR LIFE SIMPLE
THOUSANDS TO HIM'
Daniel Felt Like He Was No More
Use in This World He
Declares.
GAINS ELEVEN POUNDS
Regains His Health Taking Tanlac and
Can Now Do as Much Work as
He Ever Could in His Life,
He Says.
“It’s worth thousands of dollars to
feel like I do now, since Tanlac has
taken away the trouble that kept me
Ln misery for the last twenty years,”
said M. B. Daniel, a well-known farmer
living on Route 2 out of Abbeville,
Georgia, a few days ago.
“Whenever a man suffers as long as
I did, he gets to the place where he
feels like he’s no more good in this
world,” he continued, “and that’s .lust
the way I had begun to feel. Long
ago I got so weak I couldn’t carry on
my work, for spells of stomach trouble
and nervousness just made it torture
for me to eat and the trouble I had
wouldn’t let me sleep at all. My heart
would flutter and act queer until I
was afraid it would stop and I got so
blue and discouraged that I felt like
I didn’t much care if it did.
“I’d been well-enough satisfied just
to have my ^sufferings relieved, but
that’s not all Tanlac has done for
me—I have gained eleven pounds in
weight—since I started taking it. I
can eat as hearty a meal as if I had
never had stomach trouble at all and
my strength has come back so I can
do as much work in a day as I ever
could. I just feel like a new man all
over and will be glad to tell anybody
Just what this wonderful medicine has
done for me.”
There is a Tanlac dealer in your

Reproof Not Effective.
The new maid would not rise early
enough. Gentle reproof seemed vain
and finally the master and mistress
tried the inferential method of blame
and left the damsel asleep whilst
they prepared the breakfast for them-
selves.
“We’ll shame her to it,” said the
master.
Not a word Mas said until nine
o’clock the same evening, when the
girl tapped at the door of the sitting
room.
“Is there anything else I can do,
mum?” she respectfully inquired.
There was nothing and she turned to
go to bed, but at the door remembered
something.
“If you’re down before me in the
morning, mum,” she observed, “you’ll
find the eggs in the icebox in the pan-
try.”
The Broker's Son.
Visitor—Your little boy doesn’t
seem to be very cheerful. Isn’t he
well ?
Broker-—Yes, he’s well enough, but
he is feeling rather blue just now.
You see, there was a great drop fn
leather this morning.
Visitor—Bless me! You don’t mean
to tell me that child knows anything
about the market?
Broker—Well, perhaps not, gener-
ally speaking, but you see the partic-
ular leather that dropped this morn-
ing was his mother’s slipper.

Children Attend School Only if They
Wish, and Are Never Corrected—
Youths May Be Considered
Men at Very Early Age.
The Mongearts are a tribe of wan-
dering Arabs which inhabit the Sahara,
or Great desert of Africa. Their time
is wholly occupied by tending their
cattle, and because they are little
skilled in the use of arms, Mongeart is
a term of contempt among the people
by whom they are surrounded.
The Mahometan priests are em-
ployed in traveling about the country
to instruct the children. There is
nothing like force in the education of
a Mongeart boj7. The little fellows meet
in the morning, of their own accord,
at the place of instruction, which is
to them a place of recreation.
They go there with a small board
inscribed with the Arabic characters
and a few maxims of the Koran.
The oldest and the best informed re-
ceive their lessons directly from the’
priests, and afterward communicate
them to their companions.
They are never corrected, because it
would be a crime to beat a child who,
according to their popular notions, has
not sufficient reason to distinguish
good from evil.
Tills lenity extends even to the chil-
dren of Christians, though in a state of
slavery. They are treated in ail re-
spects like the children of Arabs, and
the man who should be rasli enough to
strike one of them would endanger his
life.
Very different is their treatment of
negro children, who may indeed join in
all the amusements of the young
Arabs, and even attend the public
schools, but, if they be guilty of a fault
they are severely punished.
When the child of a Mongeart be-
comes tired of the places of public In-
struction, he quits them at pleasure,
and without feeling constraint or hear-
ing reproach; goes and employs him-
self In tending his father’s flocks; and,
accordingly, there are very few among
them who can read. Those who perse-
vere in the study of the Koran are
made priests, after having passed an
examination before the learned elders,
and enjoy the greatest public consid-
eration. They have no need of cattle,
for those cf the nation being theirs,
they find their subsistence everywhere.
It is generally at seven or eight years
of age that these children have their
heads shaved, nothing being left but
four locks of hair—one of which is
cut off in a meeting of the family at
each remarkable action performed by
the child. If, at the age of twelve or
thirteen, he kills a uild boar or other
beast of prey that should fall upon his
flock, he loses one of his locks. If, In
the passage of a river, a camel be car-
ried away by the stream and he saves
it by swimming to its assistance, an-
other is cut off. If he kills a lion, a
tiger or a warrior of a hostile nation in
a surprise or an attack, he is consid-
ered as a man, and his head is entirely
shaved.
Always on Wrong Side.
Old Crabton is particularly severe
upon his M’ife ln argument. During a
recent passage at arms between the
two his wife riianaged to interpose
with: “My dear, I wish you wouldn’t
be so very positive about everything.
Remember there are always two sides
to every question.” Whereupon Old
Crabton roared back at her: “Well,
that’s no reason why you should al-
ways be on the wrong side!”

to give him heaven. Who shall I give

Four-year-old Marion with her moth-
er was visiting in a small town. One
day while passing the public watering
trough for horses a flock of birds was
perched on the side of the tub drink-
ing. This M’tts something new for
Marion and, looking up at her mother
In surprise, she said: “Why, mudder, I
didn’t know they had bathtubs for their
bUds down here.”
The president of the United States

A Puzzle.
“It is a mystery to me.”
“What Is?”
“What I used to do Mflt-h all the dol-
lars that I’ve managed to give to the
various Red Cross solicitors lately,

An Rlinois man lias invented u con-
trivanee that enables a man to move a
loaded car. That is more than a lot
of locomotives seem to have been able
to do.—Cincinnati Times-Slur,
At the cost of a small jar of ordi-
nary cold cream one can prepare a full
quarter pint of the most wonderful
lemon skin softener and complexion
beautifier, by squeezing the juice of
tM'O fresh lemons Into a bottle contain-
ing three ounces of orchard udfite. Care
should be taken to strain the juice
through a fine cloth so no leinou pulp
gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh
for months. Every woman knows that
lemon juice is used to bleach and re-
move such blemishes as sallowness,
freckles and tan and is the ideal skin
softener, smoothener and beautifier.
Just try it! Get thre^ ounces of or-
chard white at any pharmacy and tM7<?
lemons from the grocer and make up a
quarter pint of this siveetly fragrant
lemon lotion and massage it daily into
the face, neck, arms and hands. It
naturally should help to soften, fresh-
en, bleach and bring out the roses and
beauty of any skin. It is wonderful to
smoothen rough, red hands. Adv.
BILIOUS? NO! STOP! i
ACTS LIKEJVNftMITE ON LIVER
I Guarantee “Dodson’s Liver Tone” Will Give You the Best Liver
and Bowel Cleansing You Ever Had—Doesn’t Make You Sick!
1
Stop using calomel! It makes you
sick. Don’t lose a day’s work. If you
feel lazy, sluggish, bilious or consti-
pated, listen to me!
Calomel is mercury or quicksilver
M’hich causes necrosis of the bones.
Calomel, when it comes into contact
with sour bile, crashes into it, breaking
it up. This is when you feel that aw-
ful nausea and cramping. If you feel
“all knocked out,” If your liver is tor-
pid and bowels constipated or you
have headache, dizziness, coated
tongue, if breath is bad or stomach
sour just try a spoonful of harmless
Dodson’s Liver Tone. L:
Here’s my guarantee—Go to any
drug store or dealer and get a 50-cent
bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone. Take a
spoonful and if it doesn’t straighten
you right up and make you feel fine
and vigorous I want you to go back to
the store and get your money. Dod-
son’s Liver Tone is destroying the
sale of calomel because it is real liver
medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore
it cannot salivate or make you sick.
I guarantee that one spoonful of
Dodson’s Liver Tone will put your
sluggish liver to work and clean your
bowels of that sour bile and consti-
pated waste which is clogging your
system and making you feel miserable.
I guarantee that a bottle of Dodson’s
Liver Tone will keep your entire fam-
ily feeling fine for months. Give it to
your children. It is harmless; doesn’t
gripe and they like its pleasant taste.
