Her Only Hope.

dred and twenty-five pounds, and new
er FELT better in my life. For yeas l
have suffered with a bad form of stom-
ach trouble, constipation and pains in
my side and back. At times the pains
took the form of torture and I was
twice examined and each time was
told that 1 had appendicitis and that
an operation would he my only hope.
I had fallen of until I only weighed
ninety-eight pounds and was so weak
!. could hardly get around.
~ had no appetite at alr scarcely
and What little ], did eat would cause I;
gas to form in my stomach, which |
gave me palpitation Of the heart, sick
headaches and dizzy feeling about
the head. Waen these spells came on
my, I would get aEtfully nervous. 1
worried about myself until 1 could
rest and sleep but little.
"I had fallen of until was almost
akin and bones and my strength and
energy were slowly leaving me. ]
had a dread OF the futuye and could
see nothing but the operating table
and the knife l. had perfect horror
OF an operation. But had made up my
mind that it was either life or death
and prepared to submit to it. l had
made all preparations for the opera
tions and called on my sister to tell
her good bye and l did not know
whether would live to see her again
or not. My sister begged and pleaded
with me not to allow them to cut on
me and told me to wait and try good
tonic for a while 'The next day as l
returned from the consultation room
/ thought O. what she said, and, az |
heard so much about Tanlac decid-
ed to try it as last resort, and stop
ped at Gilbert's Drug Store and got
a bottle. OF course, l had lost heart
aud mad no faith in the medicine but
to please my sister 1 made up my
mind to take it, and, oh, what happy
day that was for me!
"I never returned for the operation
but just kept taking the Tanlac. Right
from the start 1 began to feel better.
The medicine seemed to take hold
right at once. 1t had soothing ef-
feet, and in a few days l felt no pain
at all. 1 was so happy over the won
derful improvement in my condition
that l sent for my neighbors to tell
them how much better l Eelt. and got
smother bottle of Tanlac and have just
finished taking my third bottle and
feel like l have been made all over
again into a new woman.
"As have said before, now weigh
125 pounds and my improvement has
been so rapid that none of my clothes
are big enough for me. I will haze to
make them all over again. l now
have a ravenous appetite and my hus-
band says l am simply eating him out
of house and home. have even gone
back to my coffee, which l was told
not to touch. Those terrible pains IN
my back and head have all disappear
ed and I sleep like child. am no
longer nervous and when l get up IN
the mornings l feel refreshed, cheer
fui and bright. l am now able to at
tenG to my household duties and
1eel as 4 had started life al { er
again My husband is highly d2ligh>-
ed and ny recovery is the tall G. :fe
neighborhood. 1 do nothing but re-
joice all day long over the recovery
of my health and I praise Tanlac to
everybody
"I feel so grateful for my escape
from the operating table and the knife
that you may publish what 1 have
said: You may, if you wish, tell other
women suffering as I was to come to
me and will be glad to tell them all
about my case"
