% of the big benefits her husband,
telegraph operator, gained from
Tanlac, the celebrated new medicine.
"Mr. Sherwood's system was just

and tired out all the time. He had to
quit work for two weeks, his condi-
ton became so bad
my husband is improving right
along now, since he has taken one
bottle of Tanlac. His appetite is
much better and the tired, weak
feeling has been greatly relieved.
He's gone back to work now. I rec
ommend this medicine Tanlac.'
Tanlac, the Master Medicine, is es-
pecially beneficial for stomach, liver
and kidney trouble, catarrhal COM

sleeplessness, loss of appetite and the
like and has proven a fine recon-
structive tonic, building up to health
