TANLAC HAS BEEN WORTH
$500 TO HIM, HE SAYS
RICHARDSON DECLARES ''TWO
YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE
TANLAC RESTORED MY
HEALTH.o
ONCE LIVED ON MILK
Removed by Tanlac, He Says "I'Te
had no Return of my old
Troubles"

A few days ago, Frank Richardson,
we'll known employe of the Byrd
Printing Company, residing at 50 West
Lake St., Atlanta, came into Jacobs
PHARMACY and in relating his expert
ences with Tanlac said:
About eighteen months ago, while
lived in Knoxville, Tenn, made
the statement that 1 wouldn't take
$500 for the good Tanlac did me.
Well, 1 just want to tell you I still
feel the same way about it. l suffer-
ed with the most terrible case of stom-
i,ch trouble, which had followed me
for seven long years and pulled me
down almost to the point of despair
Tanlac gave me relief when every
thing else had failed and 1 can never
forget it.
My diet was restricted to milk
and occasionally soft boiled egg, and
wouldn't dare touch meats Of any
kind. I was habitually constipated
and extremely nervous. No matter
what I would eat, L would always
have an awful pain in my stomach,
and this with my stomach, kept me
awake for hours every night. My con-
dition alarmed my wife and 1 was
almost at the turn of the road where
hadn't strength to follow my voca-
tion.
81 read about Tanlac helping so
many people who were Athlete ah
was, and 1 determined to try it. l
started to the drug store one even
ing for my first bottle, and l was so
weak from loss of strength and en-
ergy that I tainted. l managed to get
back home after so long and started
on my Tanlac, and the first few doses
made me feel better. l continued i'm
proving, and, after taking the fourth
bottle, there was a most wonderful
change in my condition. l found that
l could eat just anything 1 wanted,
and, for the first time in years,
could eat boiled ham and potatoes
and felt no i'll after-effects The pains
all left my stomach, my nervousness
disappeared and l could sleep like
a child. My troubles all went away
with those few, bottles of Tanlac and
left me stronger and more energet-
tic than l had been in years. Yes,
sir, eighteen months have passed
since Tanlac so wonderfully restor-
ed my health, and it gives me pleas
ure to tell you that rave no return
of any of my old troubles to this day,
and l have kept my average weight
all along. Tanlac made life real
pleasure to me, and 1 go about my
work with "a feeling that reminds ms
of the days Of my young manhood.
