Aw aue F. Ensley, and / want you to
one Of the Tanlac Company's men
70 come to see me, for ! want every
body to know what this medicine has
done for me"
That same afternoon the local Tan
lac representative called to see Mrs.
Morrison at her home, when she made
the following remarkable statement:
Three years ago ] lost my health,
and have been sick ever since. | had
chronic stomach trouble of the worst
kind and just seemed to go into gem
eral decline. Nobody but people who
have had this awful trouble know how
I have suffered.
Il tried doctors, | tried medicine
and tried everything, but nothing
seemed to help me a particle. | tried
dieting and lived on liquid foods, raw
eggs and things like that until al
most starved, but even that failed TO
relieve my trouble.
II lost all the strength ! had and
was a nervous wreck. never knew
what it was to get a good night $
sleep and was nervous, feverish and
restless most Of the time. also
suffered dreadfully from biliousness
and constipation, and was never free
from pain night or day.
The Goth of last March ! was
taken to the hospital and operated
on for what was supposed to be fe-
male trouble, but when / lef. the hos
pital ! was nothing but living skel-
eton and only weighed 66 pounds.
That is the truth, and everybody who
knows me viii tell you it is fact.

could be done for me.
About that time / began hearing a
9lot Of talk about the new medicine,
Tanlac, and read great deal in the
papers what different people had to
say about it. Something just seemed
to tell me it was what | needed, al
though the doctor didn't think so, but
| told him / was going to try it any
way as they had already said they
could do nothing more for me.
THE first bottle didn't do me much
good, as far as could tell, but that
didn't dishearten me, for ! knew it
would take time in my case, SO got
the second bottle and began improv-
Inc right away.
After this commenced eating and
my appetite increased every day. By
The time / had taken three bottles /

gained flesh and strength right along.
My nerves got settled and got
