MRS. CASON HAD NO
HOPE OF RETURNING
Went to Atlanta 6 Weeks Ago
Propped Up on Pillows. Takes
Tanlac and Gains IS Pounds.

A short time ago Mr.. J. H. Battle,
who is we'll known in Atlanta, came
into Jacobs Pharmacy to get a bottle
of Tanlac for his sister-in-law, Mrs
0. G. Cason, who lives some distance
out of Atlanta, near Ackworth. While
making the purchase, Mr.. Battle told
of the wonderful Improvement in Mrs.
Casons condition since she began u.s.
ing the medicine about six weeks ago.
He also made the statement that
Mrs. Cason felt so grateful for the
wonderful benefit she had received
that she wanted to make a public
statement, as she felt it her duty to
tell the whole world about Tanlac.
He then suggested that DR.. Elder,
the Tanlac representative at Jacobs,
call at his residence for a personal
interview.
When Or. Elder called at Mr.. Bat
ties residence on English avenue, the
following morning, it happened that
Mr.. Battle himself met him at the
door and very cordially invited him
into his living room. Mrs. Cason, who
was bright and happy, soon made her
appearance and began with delight to
tell Of the wonderful recovery of her
health, and her statement will go
down in history as being one Of the
most remarkable ever given propri-
etary medicine. Here is the story in
her own words:
About six weeks ago | left my
home on our farm near Ackworth,
Ga, to come to my sisters home here
in Atlanta, and | left with only a
shadow Of hope of ever returning
alive to my home and husband.

up on pillows, coming through the
country. had almost as much med

all kinds of medicines that had been
prescribed for me. | reached here
very weak and exhausted and with
scarcely enough strength to walk to
the door. This trouble, from which |
had suffered so long, had reduced me
to almost shadow, as only weighed
60 pounds.
"My brother-in-law, Mr.. Battle, said,
You have tried everything else with
no relief, now | want you to lay aside
your drug shop" and take Tanlac
OF course | was willing to try it, for
the medicine is the talk of the whole
country. Well, he got it for me and
| started on my first bottle that day.

ued to take it, and it is nothing short

home on the little farm five miles
from Acworth tomorrow, and won't il

husband and home absolutely well ant

about what Tanlac has done for me?'
"Yes, it's just like she says,
chimed in Nh. Battle about this time.
'Tanlac has simply robbed the grave,
and if you could have seen her wher
she started in on this medicine, yor
would say the same thing. | didn't
know at the time what her trouble
was, but the doctors said she had pei

her eat. | told her, jokingly. the
other day, that she was eating mt
