Give Nature q Chance to Extract Your
Moneys Worth from Food You
Eat and Drink
WRITER URGES BETTER
DIGESTION AS ECONOMY

When a mans system becomes run
down and he lacks that vim and
vitality which Is so necessary in this
day of hustle and hustle he may
wisely give himself some attention.
The moment you fail to get STEAM"
stop pouring food into your stomach
and stop, look, listen. The first thing
"a doctor does is give you a pill and
feels your pulse. Give yourself that
pill--it is a mild cathartic. 1t 10 one
of the Tanlac tablets that come with
each bottle.
When Tanlac was created the neces-
sity of that pill was known. so they
put some inside the carton with the
bottle and tell you to use one first
thing. 1t cleanses the intestinal tract,
stimulates action Of liver and bowels.
In other words it shakes down the
cnders. ashes and clinkers that have
accumulated. so you can get good
draft
Now then. the next step is simple.
There is plenty OF machinery inside
your body to extract plenty of nourtsh-
ment from the foods you are in the
habit of eating when they are work
| ing right. Your trouble Is that you
feed good food into the stomach and
this machinery doesn't do its work.
Very little nourishment is extracted
The food lies heavily In your stomach
You get a full hloated feeling dizzy
spells, headaches. and pains tn the
stomach No wonder-that food is
| lying there in your stomach rotening
/ just as it would naturally. 1t fer
ments and generates foul poisonous
gases These gases permeate the
system and poison it--this is called
auto-intoxication or self poisoninE-a
trouble to which we trace most of the
human ailments
Then you become constipated may
be. CloRged and Kindred in its work
the kidneys and liver begin faitering--
first because they are being over
worked, and secondly, because through
lack of nourishment they get weak as
your whole system does when inpov-
erished Your blood gets weak. your
appetite falls off. Common sense tells
us from food we must get nourishment
/ good from what you eat you are u
orally starving yourself.
