ENS[EY WOMAN
 ONLY SHADOW
 OF: FORMER SELF
Mrs. Alkaline Hill Suffered for Five Years and Fell
 Off Eighty Pounds

For more than five years I have been in poor health, suffering principally with chronic stomach trouble and for the last two years I have lived almost entirely on diet of milk and a little toasted bread, '' said Mrs. Alkaline Hill. wife of Mir. W. H. Hill, residing at 31s Twenty-second street, Ensley. During all that time I have never known what it was to have we'll day and my strength gradually left me until I was but shadow of my former self.
 Before my trouble began was stout, healthy woman, did all of my house. work and always enjoyed hearty appe- tite; in fact, before that time I never knew what it was to be sick I weighed POS pounds, but I kept on falling of until I weighed only 12S pounds.
 T got so weak had to give up all of my household duties and did not have strength to do the lightest work about the house. In this condition would have nervous attacks and sick headaches. I was nearly all the time constipated and had pains in my back. My blood was had and circulation poor because my hands felt cold and numb and often my fingers would stiffen and draw up.
 T was so dizzy-headed that I almost staggered when I would try to go about my room. I got so weak from the loss of strength and flesh that my husband constantly remained with me. I could eat no solid food at all; in fact, meats of any kind would make me sick and rarely ever went to the table. I could not eat a vegetable of any kind Some times the milk would turn against me. hurdle and I would throw 1t up.
 My husband and son were alarmed about me and did everything they could Tor me; in fact, they spent hundreds of dollars for medicines but nothing pre- ecribed for me did me any good.
 ''One night when my son came home From his work he brought me a bottle of this Tanlac and said: Mother, you must take it. Everybody says 1t is just the thing for your trouble.
 Well, just to please him and know Ing that my life was slowly ebbing away. went to taking it and oh how happy q am.
 'I am now on my third bottle and the change in my condition is something won. herful. I can now eat anything. Yes terday I ate three biscuits for break fast and for dinner I ate a piece of fat bacon along with beans and cabbage Everything tastes 50 good, for it had been several years since I ate anything like that and if it had not been for Tan 1ac guess I would never have enjoyed another hearty meal.
 "The Tanlac seemed to sooth my stonl- Ach and now don't swell up like did and belch up. hot water. am no longer tonstipated like was and I haven't had e lleadach since commenced taking the medicine.
 'I feel much stronger and can walk about the house without feeling any dig ziness about my head. In fact I am now doing most of my own work. am no longer nervous, sleep well and get up Keeling better every day. I have not weighed, but I can tell from my face and hands that I am picking up and have gained in weight. Indeed, sir, Tam lac has truly saved my life and my res- toration to health is the talk of the neigh borhood. Although I am 6S years old I feel like Tanlac has given me a new lease on life. am so grateful for what it has done for me I want you to give MT. Cooper my blessing"
