TO be charitable towards your neigh

only helps others, bat gives a happy
satisfaction to ourselves.
Charity does not mean the giving OF
money alone, but means to lend a help
ing hand TO anybody who may be ia
trouble
1t is the great humanitarian spirit
that induces thousands OF people TO
tell their experience with Tanlac the
National Tonic. They like to teil how
they We're helped so that others may
employ the same means.
Mr.. Alphonse Berger manager OF
the Lafrance Hotel. who lives at 400
High Street, Holyoke, Mass, declares
that Tanlac has helped him and is
very glad to help others by allowing
his testimonial 20 be published. Mir.
Berger made and signed the following
statement at Geo H. O'ConnOrs Drug
Store, August It'll.
Il have suffered from stomach
trouble tor the last few years have
had a pain in my stomach all the time.
L couldn't eat and slept poorly.
Il saw Tanlac advertised in the
paper and am on my third bottle
now, and since taking it / eat better
and sleep good, and now the pain is
all gone in my stomach.
now recommend Tanlac because
it helped me so much and | am glad
to help in this way anyone needing
stomach remedy"
Tanlac has won the endorsement of
people in every state in the Union for
its effect in nervous disorders 1t
promotes sound, healthy refreshing
sleep and brings good color TO pale

your next door neighbors can tell
you how they have been relieved of
those distressing symptoms which us
ually result in nervous breakdown.
Headaches, backaches, dizziness,
faulty liver, constipation and many
