About 10 day ago Mir J. B. Battle went into Jacobs Pharmacy, Atlanta to get a bottle of Tanlac for his sister ln-law, Mrs. O. c. Cason, who lives some distance out of Atlanta near Ac- worth. While making the purchase Mr. Battle told of the wonderful improve msnt in Mrs Cason's condition since she began using the medicine about six weeks ago
 He also made the statement that Mrs. Cason felt so grateful for the won derful benefit she had received that she wanted to make a public statement, as she felt it her duty to tell the whole world about Tanlac. He then sug- gested that pr. Elder the Tanlac rep resenttive at Jacobs, call at his resi- dence for a personal interview
 When Dr. Elder called at Mr Bat ties residence on English avenue, the following morning, it happened that MT. Battle, himself, met him at the door and very cordially invited him into his living room. Mrs. Cason, who was bright and happy, soon made her appearance and began with delight to tell of the wonderful recovery of her health, and her statement will go down in history as being one of the most remarkable ever given a pro- prietary medicine. Here is her story In her own words:
 About six weeks ago I left my home on our farm near Acworth Ga. to come to my sisters home here in At lanta, and I left with only a shadow of hope of ever returning alive to my home and husband.
 T left Acworth," she continued, "in
 e., l.1 on pillows, coming through the coun- try. I had almost as much medicine as ] had haggage-a big box full of all kinds of medicines that had been pre- scribed for me I reached here very weak and exhausted and with scarcely enough strength to walk to the door. This trouble, from which l had suf- fered so long. had reduced me to al Amost a shadow, as I only weighed 60 pounds.
 My brother-in-law MT. Battle said, Well, you have tried everything else with no relief. now I want you to lay aside your drug shop and take Tan lac Of course, l was willing to try it, for the medicine Is the talk of the whole country. We'll he got it for me and I started on my first bottle that day.
 ''When I had taken about half of the first bottle I began to feel stronger and
 
 it is nothing short of marvellous how I improved day by day. felt myself further and further from the grave. My appetite returned and my food seemed to nourish me and agree with me. My skin and complexion began clearing up and I improved in every way possible until I am now a well woman, and when I say we'll I mean absolutely what I say. I want to tell the whole world that I thank God for Tanlac.
 "I weigh 95 pounds now and feel as we'll as I ever felt in my life. I am going back to my husband and home on the little farm five miles from Acworth tomorrow and. won't it be joyful meeting, returning to my hus- band and home absolutely well and happy--and won't I tell everybody about what Tanlac has done for me?'
 "Yes, it's just like she says" chimed in Mir Battle about this time. "Tanlac has simply robbed the grave, and if you could have seen her when she started on this medicine, you would say the same thing.
 'I didn't know at the time just what her trouble was, but the doctors said she had pellagra. She may have had it. for all know. but there is one thing certain, she hasn't got it now, or at least you wouldn't think so if you could watch her eat. l told her, Jok- ingly, the other day, that she was eat ing out or house anu liolHc. | "oii guess there ever was a case like hers, and there is one thing certain you can count on us telling everybody about it. because I fully believe she owes her life to this medicine today"
