Imo a lot of trouble; it was an effort I to walk upstairs and at night I used | to lie awake, in continual dread lest 'my heart should stop beating alto- 1 i tether. Then, as yi result of exposure one , w inter's night in a small boat, while i in the execution of my duties, I was eize'i with violent pains ii» the right boulder and arm, which nearly drove ne to distraction. I consulted docors and specialists and underwent uassage and electrical treatment, without gettting much relief. I was trdered to give up all preaching and i tublic work for at least three months mil I began to fear that my health was permanently affected. He Had Been Skeptical. "I had always been rather skeptical of the testimonials concerning the. nerits of any medicine, but one day 1 read the statement of a man whose symptoms seemed to be identical with my own. and his praise of Tanlac rang so true I decided to give it a trial myself. I bought a bottle and its effect was almost immediate. My nervous condition began to disappear ami 1 began to get sleep at night. My appetite so increased that I could scarcely satisfy it, and 1 found myself putting on weight rapidly. By the time 1 hud taken the fourth bottle. the pains in my arm and shoulder disappeared and 1 am feeling better today than for a long time past. "1 feel that I should -be guilty of base ingratitude it 1 did not write and tell you_ what a boon Tanlac has been to me7 and 1 give you this tinJ solicited testimonial to use as you m<ty tbink best, in the hone that other.. may find in your wonderful medicine the means to restored health and i strength'” Tanlac is sold in Decatur by Smith. Yager & Falk; and at Berne, Ind., at Stengel & Craig.

IS DIFFERENT NOtf Scenes are Nol as ic as Movies Would Have You Believe WORK or AMATEURS! Marshals Call Violators 11 Over ’Phone—They Sei- ll doni Fail to Report (United Preaa Service) Covingion. Ky., Mur. I (Special to ■ Daily Democrat) Moonshining in Kentucky i.-- far different from the Bl iwashbiu king, romantic, feud-like pic- RB tires sooty in the movies or described n popular (let ion. That is what John \V. Menzies says H .bout it. And Menzies ought to know is much about moonshining as any- M tody else. He is a clerk of the federal IEM tourt of the eastern district of Ken- km ucky and listens to scores of such |S •turns in any session of the six courts n his ditriet. B Seldom do the ‘Tcvenoos” and the mountaineers engage in spectacular M rifle battles*—so popular a generation B rgo. Menzies said. When a United ■ States marshal wants a "moonshiner " B o appear in court to answer a charge IB he frequently goes to the phone and B rays something like this: H “Hello. Hill. The judge wants to 9 ee you at 9 o’clock tomorrow ” $9 And Bill usually shows up. |fl There is plenty of moonshining gotig on now in the hills of etmternlß Kentucky, according to government re B ports. War-time prohibition got it started anew, and now constitutional rfl iridness has boosted the movement - along. Hut the “whiskey” makers a-e H amateurs, who not only are easily B caught but who produce a brand of B drink that is poisonous even to the >3 -.netal-lined stomachs of the mountain- B nets themselves. B “Who Shot” is the newest brand ot S moonshine liquor made, it has re- B cently been added to the famous old B 'Mountain Dew' 'and “White Light- B nin’.” It is made from a recipe that includes potato peelings and praetic- B ally everything else in the mountains that will produce alcohol. B .'.nd it is said to be "mighty B pow'ful.” B Prices of the brews have advttni .-d. I H| like everything else. A gallon that B used to bring 75 cents to 91.50, now.B brings sl2 to sls. « -Menzies said an average “run” of a rsS still ' is from 9 to 12 gallons, and there is usually about a gallon each person at a “still’ party.” Thnyiß drink all they can fresh from the i "worm” and then carry the re-t'|M away in crock jars. CHURCH ADVERTISING That somewhat imponderable commodify which the church ha.-: to offer H mankind makes its advertising a neeosrarily subtle undertaking. The contaming public in religious matters knows only indefinitely what it wants. and chilli h advertising in conse quence suffers in a measure from lack B of a definite appeal. Good bread can B be made descriptively alluring, but a good church service at least that ele- HK men! of it which is of w i.ll' -escape-. ‘■itch simple manipulai ions. B Advertising, nevertheless, is probably a factor necessary to the re elevalion of the church from rather gen- B 'oral indifference. Left somewhat B breathless end behind by the sudden accelerations of other social organiza lions in the last two decade--, the church recognises the need for sevular speed and effectiveness. Certain wid« awake organizations now B have taken the initiative with plans for systematic and nationwide n? vs- B paper advertising. B| Wi re this merely a hoist to hold a B dying institution from its legitmate grave, church advertsing were better B not attempted. Nor would it be es- B fective. If lhose who come through curiosity leave with only curfonsitv satisfied, advertising, however, bril- B liant, can effect little. B Hut this, fortunately, is not the case. Church advertising has impor- B lance in drawing mankind to church. B there to be given contact with those MS spiritual imponderablities which can- B not be advertised. Religion in its tru- B er sense obviously cannot be adver- B tised. for it is not a public thing; but B church-going can be advertised and BB the nature of the next generation’s re- B ligion may depend upon it. Hy the cynically minded it may be E9 suggested to any church’s department B of publicity that God needs no adver- g® Hsing. The answer is that a busy, care-burdened people constantly need B to bo advertised of God and the spir- BB itual ministrations of His church. On B this account a newspaper campaign to B arouse interest in church-gqlng must B be of value —Chicago Daily News. Contributor by General Board of Pro- B motion. Northern Baptist convention.
