WOULD DE CHEAP AT J2O A BOTTLE Says His Whole Neighborhood is Talking About Good Tan lac is Doing “I'll tell the world this Tunlac doos the work," said Edgar Wright, 7128 South Eighth street, Evansville, Ind. “I was almost down and out and thought my working days were about over, but Tanlac took hold of me and made me feel like a different man. Every day for a long time I suffered from awful cramps that sometimes would cause me to double up like a jack-knife. I got to where I ate hardly enough to keep me going. Sometimes I would get so dizzy 1 would have to stop work until the spell passed off. I got little rest at night and in the morning felt so fagged out it was all I could do to drag myself to work. I fell off in weight until I was little more than a walking skeleton. I was about all in when 1 started on Tanlac and while 1 thought it might do some good, 1 wasn't expecting half what it did. "Tanlac- must have been made for cases just like mine, for 1 have a whaling Mg appetite now and nothing 1 eat disagrees with me. I’ve* gained twenty pounds in weight, too. I work nearly every day and feel fine as a fiddle. Judging by the good it did me, Tanlac would have been cheap at twenty dollars a bottle. Everybody out in my neighborhood is talking about Tanlac, and it certainly has done a world of good out here.” BLUFFTON CLUB ORGANIZED At an enthusiastic meeting of about twenty men at the city library last night, the organization of a Kiwanis club in Bluffton was voted unanimous- ' ly.

PRICES PRICES PRICES QUALITY OVALITY QUALITY Everybody is talking about, thinking about, dreaming about prices. Nobody pays any attention to QUALITY these days. It has gone f rom one extreme to the other. Last year the smokers stepped iyto a store and selected the cigar with the highest cost mark ticket. He paid no attention to Quality, the consequence was that an ocean of cigars sold al 12 l /a cents. 15 cents and even 20 cents that were no better in quality than the old pre-war nickel cigars. i Today the same smokers step into a store and select the cigar with the lowest price ticket. Again he disregards QUALITY and cheerfully pays a nickel for a smoke that is really worth but half as much. . \ •The moral of this story is—the smoker who believes in wise spending—who demands full value in smoke satisfaction for his money will look for the manufacturer who delivers QUALITY and the quality brands will win out in the long run and the smokers who insist on these quality cigars will get greater satisfaction than those who simplTreap the benefit of the low price ticket wave. • Jobbers all over the country are loaded up with long shot brands that readily sold al fancy figures a year ago, we could name many brands of them that today are unsaleable at any price. Jobbers will be loaded with the trash that now interests the price ticket buyers as soon as the present wave passes and QUALITY sanity is reinstated. This is certain. Therefore we oiler the “WHITE STAG” cigars in all its old lime goodness— Quality every inch of it—from tip to tuck to the last tooth hold, a cigar that is hand made, draws freely, burns evenly, holds its ash and satisfies the smoke sense and cost only a little more than ordinary cigars For “its GOODNESS” sake TRY IT! Stick to the White Stag and you’ll never get stuck.
