COULDN'T WALK ABOUT
HOUSE WITHOUT HELP
Texas Man Took Electric and AntitOxm
Treatment for Rheumatism With
out Relief-Gains 20 Pounds

i had dropped down in weight from
one hundred and seventy pounds TO
hundred and twenty-seven and had little
hope Of ever getting well. but l have
gained at least twenty pounds in the
past sixty days and my wonderful re-
covery makes me want to tell every
body what Tanlac has done for me.
This remarkable statement was made
by A W. Bruce. s25 Avenue c., Gai-
weston Texas, a few days ago.
"On the seventeenth day Of last June"
he continued. Il was stricken with rheu-
matism in my left foot. l distinctly re-
member. il was the seventeenth be
cause I was fixing 10 go 10 a double
header baseball game at Houston the
next day Well. l was taken down and
the trouble was pronounced a very stub
born case Of infammatory rheumatism.
Il can't tell you in words how much l
suffered. but my wife can tell you what
/ went through and what she went
through nursing me l tried electrical
treatment, but it did no good / took
the antitoxin treatment for rheumatism,
and did everything else, but nothing
helped me and finally I was told there
was nothing more that could be done
for me.
Il suffered so day and night that l
couldn't sleep or move myself and my
wife got so wornout she had 10 ge-
her sister and her sisters husband to
come and sit up with me at night Then
went to Marlin. Texas, and had to be
carried down and put in an automobile
and on the train, and when they starr
ed with me I never expected 10 come
back alive. l stayed there three weeks
and took the full course OF treatment
and baths. l believe I did get little
relief from this, but II was hardly no
ticeable.
When I came home just could man
age 10 hobble around a little on crutch'
es. on nice days with the help Of my
wife and the crutches could get from
my room 70 the porch. I had no appe
tire az an. what I forced myself 10 cat
Ola me harm In place o. good. and d
was alarming the way / was losing
weight.
Jus about this time a friend to-
my wife about Tanlac aId 7 had take,
so many different Binds Of medicine
that had no faith in anything and &
irritated me for anybody 20 suggest ar
other. But my wife insisted on me trg
ling Tanlac. so we telfph0ned the dr-.
store and had them send out a battle
I took this bottle and another withou
feeling any benefit and ] tell you
, was absolutely discouraged and wante
10 give il up. Hut we got a third botf.
land on this one I began % get better
! and when / finished it I was so muc
. better ! was able % walk 20 the dru
store myself and get the fourth.
have now taken six bottles and l am
happy man. All my rheumatic pai
! is gone. my appetite is splendid, an
] am resting fine every night. l hay
already gained at least twenty pound
, and / am building up in weight an
Z strength right along. Ny recover
from my awful suffering is enough
make me praise Tanlac and I am gla
TO tell everybody what it has done 4
