Children Summoned to Bed side When Family Was
 Told She Would Die
IS NOW WELL
 . AND STRONG
Takes Tanlac and Gains AS Pounds-Recovery Is
 Marvellous

Many wonderful inducements have been given Tanlac, but the statement made on last Wednesday by Mrs. G. W, Williams of Gadsden, Ala, is in many respects, so remarkable as to be almost increditable. Mrs. Williams, according to her own statement, had been down Ill bed for IS months, and said that her tam- ily had been told by three different uoc- tors that she was going to die-ln fact' her condition was so critical that her friends and relatives had lost all nope for her recovery She also states that telegrams were sent to her children ana that she had given final directions for her funeral.
 These are the facts of the case just as they were given ill voluntary statement which was signed by Mrs. Williams Ill person and witnessed by her daughter Mrs. R. C. Nelson The story of her wonderful restoration to health is the talk of that section and is profoundly ln- teresting Her complete statement fol- lows:
 "I am 5S years of age and have five liv- ing children For nearly 15 years l have been bothered with kidney trouble. l also had stomach trouble and suffered from nervous indigestion. l could take no neurishment except little sweet milk, and I would have palpitation of the heart and nervous headaches and terrible pains in my sides and back. l got so weak l had to take to my bed, and l stayed there IS months Doctors called two or three times a day, but l kept getting worse and fell off until 1 was almost a skeleton, and had to De turned in bed, and only weighed 90 pounds.
 My husband spent more than $500 try ing to get me well. Finally, I got so bad I was told that I could only live few days I believed, of course, that l was going to die, and told my husband to telegraph to Thomasville, N. C., for my son, and to Atlanta and Birmingham for my other children.
 fWhen my daughter-in-law, Mrs. R. C. Nelson arrived from Atlanta, she begged father to give me Tanlac. He went right down to Vances Drug store and got me a bottle I began taking it and on the second day l began to get hungry ana asked for something to eat. They gave it to me and it agreed with me, and l have been eating ever since. After a short time I got so I could eat anything l wanted and just as much as l wanted.
 After this I improved right along, and it wasn't any time hardly before l was out of bed It just seemed like the more Tanlac I took the better l got, and l have actually gained IS pounds in weight. I sleep good now, and am not nervous any more like I was. Yes, feel almost as well as I ever felt in my life, and am doing nearly all of my house work and milk the COW and churn the milk.
 After 1 got able to go about, l visited my daughter, Mrs. Short, at Ensley, Ala and have just returned from trip to the store. I don't do anything but talk about Tanlac. All of my neighbors arc talking about it, too, and think it is wonderful how this medicine has helped me.
 Every word I have told you is the truth, for I was so near deaths door that I told my husband and children how l wanted to be buried. Of course I didn't know it at the time, but the doctors had told them that it wasn't any use to give me any more medicine, but to just keep me as comfortable as possible.
 'I want you thank MT. Cooper for me, as I owe my life to this Tanlac. If any, one doubts my word, just tell them to come to see me, or to talk to any of my neighbors if they want to know how low l was"
