a statement that will undoubt-
eddy be of unusual interest to
everybody in Mississippi was
made few days ago at the Nc
Amis drug store in Corinth by J
H Weldon, who lives on the r F
D from this city and is one of the
most progressive planters in this
part of the country. Mr. Weldon
is a man of wide influence and
acquaintance, and his evidence on
any subject is considered of such
high order as to be beyond
question.
In tell in g Of h is re-
markable restoration to health
through the use of Tanlac, Mr.
Weldon says:

medicine and it has done me so
much good l am buying five more

think of it as a medicine.

When this case was reported
to Mr. G F Willis, Southern Dis
Iributor Of Tanlac, at his Atlanta
office, he said:
Statements from men like Mr.
Weldon leave nothing else to be
lone in that section to establish
he merit of this great medicine;
because the best evidence of
power is what those
Who have actually taken it have to
Jay about it. This is especially
true and beyond all question
when these statements are made
by people of prominence and
nigh character and published
light in the communities where
each and every fact can be investi-
gated and verified.
Such Endorsements and such
satisfactory results explain why
he people of Corinth and that
entire section are purchasing
Tanlac until the sales are now I
breaking all records. In Meridian
Mississippi, alone one firm has
actually sold nearly 5000 bottles
