Men and women up in the seventies and eighties are writing to us every day to thank us for Tanlac's wondrous benefits. Tanlac- is a natural tonic. It drives poisons from the blood, stirs up the lazy liver and puts digestive organs in working order. Made after the famous Tanlac formula from roots, barks and rare herbs, it is nature's ow-n tonic and builder —harmless to man or child. If your body is weakened and ruh-down, if you lack ambition, can't eat or sleep, you'll be delighted with Tanlac's qltick results. 7aAe Tanlac Vegetable Pills for Constipation TANLAC FOR YOUR |

. — — j/ m X F® ii I E I J I lif ‘ Form “The tpolarine Habit” It’s a Good One DON’T minimize the importance of lubrication. Reports show that only 2% of I the operating expense of your car is chargeable to oil—but, this 2% intimately affects, Ist, depreciation 30%, 2nd, repairs 30%, and 3rd, fuel 15%. See that the oil level in your crankcase is maintained. Watch your lubricating oil, just as you watch the air in your tires, your gasoline supply and the water in your radiator. Because the engine does not send out a loud distress call for oil, do not become indifferent to its needs. The damage done by improper or insufficient lubrication is great. It will cost you more in the end than the damage done by driving on a flat tire ot with an empty radiator. But, it is slower in calling itself to your attention. Use Polarine exclusively —it will pay high dividends. It saves wear and tear; reduces repair bills and increases the mileage you get from a gallon of gasoline. "The Polarine Habit” will greatly decrease your operating cost and largely increase your motor efficiency. Drain your crankcase every 500 miles and refill with fresh Polarine.
