THE BODY IS A
HUMAN DRYD0CK
A StOreh0use for Disease That Wreck
The System and Cause
Much Misery.

The human body unless given care
full attention will contract all kinds
of germs that will eventually wear
down the working organs and cause
sickness. Mrs. P. S. Cooke, of 10 E.
18th Street, Richmond, Va, said in
:egard to this:
81 had an awful amount of gas on
my stomach and was very weak anc
run down. My appetite was very poor
and everything l ate caused full
ness in my throat and l suffered
from severe headaches My bladder
and kidneys also gave me trouble
| decided to try Tanlac and now | am
not troubled with gas and my kidneys
and bladder are better. My appetite
is improved and l am gaining in
strength every day. Ny general con-
dition has improved and ! feel fine.
| recommend Tanlac to everyone who
is sick as ! know it to be a great
remedy"
Go today to Leadbeater Drug Cor
poration, Alexandria, OF G. T. Man
kin and Son, Falls Church, and get
bottle of Tanlac and drive the
sickness out of your system. Delay
is dangerous.
