]. M. HAMMONS FEELS BETTER
 THAN IN YEARS
Prominent Knoxville Archi- tect Restored to Health
 by Tanlac

T have been suffering from stomach
 trouble for three or four years, and
 found nothing that would help me until
 I was told about Tanlac," said J. w.
 Hammons. the well known architect and
 building contractor of the firm of J. W.
 Hammons & Sons, Knoxville, Tenn. "I
 have taken two bottles of the medicine" "
 he continued, land feel like a different
 man. I gained five pounds in a short
 time, and now weigh more than I ever
 did in my life.
 Before I began taking Tanlac I was
 always upset, nervous and out of shape.
 suffered a great deal from biliousness
 and constipation, my appetite was poor
 and my meals hardly ever agreed with me. finally got so nervous l actually
 dreaded to see night come, as I could not sleep. I became interested in Tan lac through several friends of mine who had been benefited by this medicine; be- besides several of my neighbors had used 1t and advised me to try 1t.
 Since taking Tanlac, I actually feel like I had been made all over again. no longer suffer from indigestion, my appetite is good, and I sleep well at night. I expect to tell all my friends about what it has done for me. Referring to MT. Hammons' statement, MT. G. F. Willis. the southern distribu- tor of Tanlac, said:
 Indigestion, from which MT. Ham mons has evidently been suffering, is not only one of the most distressing but one of the most prevalent of all diseases. It lis also one of the most difficult to treat, and has baffled the medical profession for years, the most skilled specialists be- ing unable to cope with it successfully. Tn the treatment of this trouble 1t Is important to quit all injurious habits. No treatment can give you strength while violating the laws of nature. You must mot eat or drink to excess, lose sleep or Ioyerwork. Plenty of outdoor exercise land air Is also absolutely essential. "Tanlac, the celebrated medicine, which Ehas proven of such great benefit to those Esuffering from this trouble. contains cer- Etain medicinal properties which, being &purely vegetable, are readily taken up by Ethe system, thereby stimulating the appetite and aiding digestion by as- |isisting the stomach in converting the Hood into nourishing elements that build |up tissue and nerve strength"
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu- fsively by Patton-Pope Co.,, and Jacob' s *Drug Store, under the personal direc- ftion of the Tanlac representative. It Is Ealso sold in Bessemer by Pegram-Patton 4Drug Co.,, and at Ensley by D. W. Nor iris Drug Co.-Adv.
