MY name is ]. B. Watson and my

work train between Selma and Mobile.

] only weighed 1903 and hadn't been able
to work for Is months Now, after TAX
ing only three and one-half bottles OF
Tanlac I weigh III pounds and have
actually gained IS pounds, and never
felt better in my life.
IT suffered for several years with
the worst kind of stomach trouble and
constipation. I kept dropping down in
weight and losing strength, and finally
] broke down completely. 1 had several
attacks of what was called acute pols-
oning of the stomach and nobody knows
how I suffered.
II took treatment at the Marine hos
pitaI at Algiers, La, and at Tulane
hospital New Orleans I also took treat
ment at Hot Springs Ark. and Look
out mountain To tell you the truth,
I tried everything you could thing of
and spent hundreds of dollars but 1 just
kept going down hill. and for 10 whole
months ! was unable to run my engine
or to do any other kind of work.
"Of course, I was awfully discouraged
about myself and 1 could see but little
hope of ever being well again. While
I was sick and unable to work brake
man gave me half bottle of Tanlac.
I took it and began. to feel myself gain
ing in weight and getting stronger every
day, and after taking my second bottle
7 went back to running my engine on
the main line.
Now since taking three and one-half
bottles l am working regular, running
work train between Selma and Mo-
,&fr- in
ton of the state
"Now what I have told you is the
truth and hundreds of people who know
me and who know how | looked before
] took Tanlac will tell you the same
thing Another thing, you can see from
my picture, which I had taken while
was sick, how much stronger and
healthier L look now than | did then
"They can say what they please about
Tanlac and patent medicines, but I can
truthfully say that Tanlac is the only
medicine that ever did me any good
and I want everybody to know about It,
IF people don't believe you just tell them
to come and look at me now and then
look at my picture that was taken while
l was sick. I will show them mighty
quick what Tanlac has done for me-"
Commenting on the above remarkable
statement. Mr.. G. F. Willis southern dis
trbutor of Tanlac, said:
Over seven and quarter million bot
tics of Tanlac have been sold within the
past two years, and it has been in
dorsed by over half a million people,
but this mans case is one of the most
remarkable that has ever been called
to my attention. Tt is Just such evidence
as this that proves beyond question the
truly wonderful and extraordinary cura-
tive powers of Tanlac and explains it's
phenomenal and record breaking sales in
all parts of the country
Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclusive
