see nothing but the operating table
and the knife. I had perfect hor-
ror 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
operations and called on my sister to
tell her good bye and l did not know
whether 1 would live to see her again
or not. My sister begged and plead
ed with me not to allow them to cut
on me and told me to wait and try
good tonic for while. The next day
as L returned from the consultation
room | thought of what she said, and,
as l had heard so much about Tanlac
IL decided to try it as a last resort.

what a happy day that was for me!

but just kept taking the Tanlac.

better. The medicine seemed to take

them how much better l felt. sent
and got another bottle of Tanlac and
