spry rs colt" said Capt. w. C..
Grocer, when he called at the Live
and Let-Live Drug Store 1t Chatt-
anooga q few days ago for . second
bottle Of Tanlac. Capt. Grocer, who
resides at No. 513 West Sixth st..
Chattanooga, has been making his
home in that city for the past four
years, and is. perhaps. the oldest
and best known civil engineer in the
Southern states.
| Coming from q person Of his adj
vanced age, Mr.. Crozer's statement
has been read with unusual interest
by his numerous friends who are
glad to learn that he is again hale
and hearty and enjoying the best of
health. His statement follows:
Il am 76 years old and have been
in active service as Civil Engineer
for the greater part OF the time for
the past Sc years. l drove the first
stake for the Cincinnati Southern
Railroad In 1869, and was for sever
al years First Division Engineer for
that Road. was also Civil Engi-
neer for the city of Knoxville for
several years, which was my home
for about twenty years.
II always enjoyed very good
health up to about four years ago,
when began having rheumatism
and stomach trouble. was hardly
ever sick enough to go to bed but
was all out of shape and unfit for
work. At times ! suffered consid-
erably from rheumatic pains and
stiff joints; l could hardly get
about and most of the time my ap-
| petite was so poor / didn't care
| whether meal time came or not.
Finally rheumatism and indigestion
together began to get on my nerves
and l could not sleep with any COM
| fort. l would have very uncom-
Portable feeling for hours after eat
irg.
Many a time l wished for a re-
turn of the good old days when l
bread. beans and bacon, like we
used to have in the railroad camps,
and then lie down at night in the
tent and sleep like a log, l had
about given up hope of feeling right
again, as l took all kinds of medi-
| cines without getting any relief
| whatever.
Il heard about Tanlac through
the Knoxville papers and ordered a
bottle from Huffman & Chambliss
Company, the Knoxville agents.
That was before a Tanlac agent was
appointed here in Chattanooga. AS
soon as l saw it advertised here in
| the News l came right straight to
get another bottle. This Tanlac is
the most perfect medicine. for my
trouble. l have ever found any
where 1t just seemed to suit me
| and built me right up from the
start. Why, l feel no more like the
same man than if | we're different
| person. l actually feel ten years
younger since l began taking it; l
have an appetite like a school boy
and can eat anything put on the Ia
BILE. l also sleep well and wake up
mornings feeling refreshed and
ready for breakfast. l can con-
scientiously recommend Tanlac, and
want every one to know what it is
doing for me-
Commenting upon Mr.. Crozers
statement, Mr.. Fl. Z. Garrett, who
is personally experimenting the in
PRODUCTION of Tanlac into this state,
said:
when people get to the ripe old
age of Mr.. Grocer. their digestive
organs lack vitality and begin to
act more slowly and less effectual-
ly than in youth; the circulation
becomes poor. the blood gets thin,
the appetite fails and the digestive
powers weaken. Tanlac. the recon-
structive tonic, is the ideal
strengthened and body builder for
old folks because it tends to create
a good healthy appetite. strengthen
digestion, enrich the blood. and in
this manner build up and invigorate
feeble. rundown systems of aged
people.
Tanlac is sold In Waxahachie by
the Curtin Drug Company's stores.
