| How Is Your Weight?
While It Is true that too much weight
is not to bo desired yet the fact remains
that many men and women are thin to
the point of danger. This danger lies
in their having no reserve force or
nerve power to combat deadly diseases.
-V little extra llesh is needed by all to
feel well and to look well, and this
calls up the question of how best to in
crease the weight. Physicians and
chemists by experiments have solved
the problem of increasing the white and
red corpuscles of the blood by the ad
ministration of 3 grain hypo-nuclane
f,a !, 'ets. and this is always followed by
mi Increase of weight. Obtain In sealed
packages, and take for a period of sev

Beauty Specialist
Endorses Tanlac
.Mrs. Hoffeeker Tells How Master Med
icine Helped Her Win Hack
Health
HER PRAISE ENTHUSIASTIC
"If 1-could meet every nervous, run
down, headachy man and woman and
tell them personally what Tanlac has
done lor me, I would do it willingly,
for 1 think that this Is the finest tonic
that anybody could take," enthusias
tically states Mrs. Helena Hoffecker,
popular beauty specialist of 1657 Cot
ton street, Reading, Pa.
"I was in such miserable health that
it was well nigh impossible for me to
attend to my business," she says. "I
was all run down, weak and emaciat
ed and in a badly nourished condition.
My liver was torpid, I had heartburn
and suffered incessantly from head
aches.
"My eyes were lusterless, my skin
was jaundiced and I was losing weight
so fast that all my friends were afraid
I was in a decline. I could not eat
,-lth any satisfaction and could only
sleep in short snatches; in fact I was
only a shadow of my former self.
"But as soon as i began taking Tan
lac I noticed an improvement. I be
gan to have an appetite and soon I
could sleep soundly for eight or nine
hours and wake up fresh and rested.
"My eyes soon brightened up, I be
gan to regain my lost weight and I
now feel as well or better than at any
time in my life. Just to show what
Tanlac has done for me, I can now eat
cabbage and kraut and enjoy it
whereas a short time ago it would have
been suicide."
Tanlac, the famous reconstructive
tonic, is now being introduced here at
fcorgas' Drug Store, where the Tanlac
man is meeting the people and ex
plaining the merits of this master
medicine.

CHILD GETS SICK,
CROSS, FEVERISH
IF CONSTIPATED
Look at tongue! Then give fruit
laxative for stomach,
liver, bowels.
"California Syrup of Figs" can't
harm children and
they love it.
Mother! Your child isn't naturally
cross and peevish. See If tongue Is
coated; this Is a sure sign the little
stomach, liver and bowels need a
cleansing at once.
When listless, pale, feverish, full of
cold, breath bad, throat sore, doesn't
eat, sleep or act naturally, has stom
ach-ache, diarrhoea, remember, a
gentle liver and bowel cleansing
should always be the first treatment
given.
Nothing equals "California Syrup of
Figs" for children's ills; give a tea
spoonful, and In a few hours all the
foul waste, sour bile and fermenting
food which Is clogged iri the bowels
passes out of the system, and you havo
a well and playful child again. All
children love this harmless, delicious
"fruit laxative," and It never falls to
effect a good "inside" cleansing. Di
rections for babies, children of all
ages and grown-ups are plainly on
the bottle. '
Keep It hai.dy In your home. A
little given to-day saves a sick child
to-morrow, but get the genuine. Ask
jour druggist for a 50-cent bottle of
"California Syrup of Figs." then see
that It Is made by the "California Fig
Syrup Company." •,

known to have been killed in the
country districts nearby. Three per

cinnati.
New Castle, Ind., March 12.—The
death list from the tornado which
swept New Castle yesterday afternoon
was 23 early to-day and searchers
were still digging'in the ruins for
other victims. A score or more per
sons were reported to be missing,
while the hospitals were crowded with
several hundred patients suffering
from more or less serious injuries.
According to the best estimate ob
tainable the property damage will
reach at least $1,000,000.
One hundred homes were demolish
ed and approximately one thousand
damaged. Early to-day it was appar
ent that a complete list of the dead
and injured and the extent of the
property damage could not be compil
ed for several days.
The tornado struck the city from
the west after levelling the rolling
mills of Blue River Valley. It swept
through the entire width of the city
from Sixth to Twenty-fifth streets. The
first homes in the path of the twister
were practically levelled to the
ground after which the wind appar
ently raised slightly, taking the roofs
from the houses from Tenth to Twen
tieth streets, where it again dipped,
sweeping pfractically every house be
fore It to Twenty-fith street. The
greatest damage was done in the south
part of the city where a great many
of tlie factory employes reside and
several thousand were homeless
throughout the night. Two hundred
special officers wore sworn in by
Mayor Watklns and a district patrol
of the affected districts was maintain
ed.
Tornado Cuts Wide Path
The death loss was all in the south
eastern part of the city where the
wind apparently struck low. One fire
occurred, M. M. Mlntch, losing his
drug store and later his home as the
result of the fire.
The tornado cut a path ,Xrom 300
to 500 feet in width thn>u|fr the city
for a distance of 18 blocks. It entered
the city near the southwest boundary
line and worked Its way in a zigzag
manner north for two blocks and then
east. It turned south near the east
ern limits and left the city in a south
easterly direction.
Most of the dead were taken from
homes that were completely domollsh
ed. Many persons escaped injury by
rushing Into cellars as the storm
struck the city. On a number of
streets every house with one exception
was levelled to the ground and in
one block every second house wa?
wrecked and the other homes escaped
untouched. Entire roofs were torn
from houses and carried for squares
and one house was picked up and. car-

BLOOD AS A NERVE TONIC
"If people would only attend tothefr
blood, instead of worrying themselves
ill," said an eminent nerve specialist,
i ''we doctors should not see our consult*
l ing rooms crowded with nervous wrecks.
| More people suffer from worry than !
from anything else."
The sort of thing which the specialist j
epoke ct is the nervous run-down con- >
dition caused by overwork and the
many anxieties of today. Sufferers
find themselves tired, morose, low
; spirited, unable to keep their mind on
anything. Any sudden noise hurts
like a blow. They are full of ground
less fears and cannot sleep at night.
Doctoring the nerves with poisonous
sedatives is a terrible mistake. The
only real nerve tonic is a good supply j
of rich blood. Therefore the treatment
for neurasthenia, ndmjusness, and run- |
down health is the new rich blood which :
Dr. Williams' Pinlt Pills are able to
make. The revived appetite, improved j
spirits and new strength which come 1
after a few days' use of the pills will
delight every sufferer.
The free booklet, "Diseases of the
j Nervous System" will interest you.
