REV ] A WELLS. OF vIcKs.
BURG, TELLS OF WIFE'S
TROUBLE
Well Known Minister OF the
Gospel Says His Wife was in
Bad Health for Three Years.

Still another wellknown minis
ter of the Gospel voluntarily
comes forward with his unqualified
Endorsement for Tanlac, the medi-
cine that is being 80 widely dis
cussed throughout the South.
This time it is Rev J A Wells,
member of the Mississippi confer.
ence of the Methodist church and
pastor of the Oak Ridge Methodist
church at Oak Ridge, near Vicks-
burg, Miss. Previous to his pas
torate at this place, Rev Wells
was pastor of the Seventh Avenue
Methodist church, Meridian, Miss.
A few days ago Rev Wells while
in King & Co.'S store at Vicksburg,
made the following statement to
the Tanlac representative.
Il am so grateful for the i'm
provement in my wife's health
brought about by Tanlac, that !
do not feel that it would be doing
my duty if | didn't tell the public
what Mr. Cooper's wonderful new
medicine has done for her.
She was in a general run down
for three years and be-
came very emaciated and weak
She was nervous all the time and
never slept well at night. Her
was poor and what she
did eat caused pain and discom-
fort afterward. She lost strength
and energy and fell off from 118
pounds until she only weighed 90
pounds. She was constipated
most Of the time and had severe
backaches and headaches. Her
health was so run down that she
had to spend about half of her tine
in bed. She was under the tire;
ment of several doctors, but could
get no relief to speak of. In fact
1 was told by the doctors that
there was little hope for her recov-
cry and, of course, her condition
became the source Of much ankle
ty to me. | thought once a trip
to one of the health resorts would
benefit her, but knew that she
was not strong enough for a
sojurn there, so gave up the idea
Il was in Meridian two months
ago when Tanlac was recommend
ed to me. Both Mrs Wells and
myself were always skeptical
about proprietary medicines, and
then too, realizing that the many
medicines prescribed for her by
doctors had failed to bring about
any marked improvement, we did
Mt think thetc was much chance
of anything helping her. How
ever, finally bought her a bottle
and she began taking it.
Well, sir, she is now on her
seventh bottle of Tanlac and she
is like different woman, both in
feelings and i'll looks. Her friends
all say that she looks better than
she has in months. Her appetite
has picked up wonderfully and she
can eat most anything she wants
without any bad after effects.
She is much stronger than she
was and has gained at least five
pounds. She is active and is now
able to assist with the house work.
She doesn't complain like she used
to, is not nervous and sleeps splen.
didly. She isn't subject to con.
stipation like she was and the pains
ii her back and the heata hes have
about disappeared. She is as
bright and as cheerful as she can
be, and is greatly improved in
every way.
We are both, indeed, gratifed
over her remarkable improve
ment, and unhesitatingly recon-
mend Tanlac to anyone who has
troubles like she had. -
Commenting on Rev. Wells
statement, Mr. G + Willis, south
ern distributor of Tanlac said:
This is, indeed, very remark
able case, and | distinctly recall a
lumber Of other members of this
high calling who have publicly
expressed their indebtedness to
this medicine and who felt it their
duty to tell suffering humanity of
the great benefits they had deriv-
ed from its use. Among them
