VI have just finished my third bot
tie of Tanlac and have actually gained
eighteen pounds" said Mrs. Mamie
ONeill, 2601h Welton street, Denver,
Colo, recently.
Ever since 1 was a child" Mrs.
ONeill continued, 'even as far back as
4 can remember, l have suffered.
Everything I ate sOured on my stom-
ach, causing awful pain and at times
l would almost smother from the gas
that would rise up around my heart.
My trouble became worse as I grew
older and l got to where 1 dreaded to
eat anything on account Of the suffer-
ing 1t caused me.
Il tried nearly every kind Of medi-
cine made for this trouble, but nothing
did me any good. 1 fell off in weight
and was so weak that when night
came ! would be so tired / could hardly
move. My brother in Pueblo told me
OF b fine results he had gotten from
Tanlac and advised me to try It. The
result is, I'm in better health now than
/ ever have been before since 1 can
remember. It's the first time since l
was a child that 1 a eat just my
thing l want and enjoy It without suf-
fering afterwards.
Il sleep well every night now and /
can do my work without getting the
least bit tired. I recommend Tanlac
to everybody because of what 1t has
done for me, and I'm buying a bottle
now for a friend Of mine, for 1 believe
it's just what she needs"

We had a friend who had been pref
ty prosperous, but who came upon evil
days. We met him one day and he
said that he was pretty close TO be-

Then he hOnked his horn, m%ournfully,
and drove away, and we didn't see
him again till the other day when we
bumped into him on the street, says
the Cleveland Plalndealer.
Hello, old scout !" we said. "How
