 ssrwenty-five years ago." continued Mrs. Flaniken, q began suffering with consti- patton. Then my stomach got out of or der and later on my heart got to fiutter- ing and giving me trouble but at that time I didn't realize 1t was caused by the gas on my stomach was treated for heart trouble. but the medicine did me no good at all and became alarmed My heart would jump so I could hardly breathe My stomach just kept full of gas all the time, feeling sometimes like it would almost burst and was so tender I could hardly bear my clothes to touch me. would just belch all the time and l got so nervous I couldn't sleep to do me any good and sometimes for two or three nights at time I would scarcely sleep any at all-just doze a few minutes and then wake up again. I was tired all the *irae n's1 necs'e year ago, when I

 l9 fQe raw eggs week Tn emu woen anu Inat, and even water, hurt me just as bad as other things. All my neighbors knew what a dread ful condition I was in and none of them thought I could live but short while longer.
 'Now, this Is just the condition was in when I read a statement given by En- gfneer Weeks of Jacksonville Fla, who described my case, it seems to me, bet ter than can myself. I wrote to him and asked him if he had really gotten the benefits from Tanlac as stated in the paper. and he wrote me that every word was the truth. Then phoned to the drug store to send me a bottle and before I finished that bottle I noticed the pains and soreness in my stomach were getting better. I kept on taking Tanlac and improving until I took seven bottles and when weighed found thai my weight had increased from 90 to 115 pounds, and I felt as we'll as I ever did In my life. This was about May or June last and Pm still feeling just splendid m every way. I'm eating most anything want and don't have any gas at ali on my stomach and what I thought was heart trouble has vanished since I took Tanlac and got so I could digest my food. After I commenced to improve went to my doctor and told him T was taking Tanlac and he said 1t was good tonic. think it Is the best med- icine there Is and am indeed thankful Tor what 1t has done for me. I'm giv- Ing this statement because I feel I owe It to others who are suffering as I did and who may be skeptical like was at nrst- l am as happy as 8 person could be over my benefits and my neigh DOTS are praising Tanlac like I am for what they see it has done for me"
