PEOPLE ARE RESTORED TO
HEALTH BY TAKING
TANLAc.
FIGURES ARE ASTONISHING
People Of PromInsnes and Unques-
toned Integrity Tell What csIs.
brated Medicine Has Done
for Them.

NNE Of the most noteworthy fea-
~ lures In connection with Tanlac
and the that stands out more prom
Inently than any other, perhaps, Is the
very large number Of well-knOwn men
= and women from all parts Of the South
who have recently reported astonishing
and rapid increases in weight as a re-
suit Of its use.
When so many well-knOwn people
Of unquestiOned integrity make state
ment after statement, each corroborat-
ing the other, the truth of such state
Inents can no longer be doubted.
Thousands have testified that this
famous medicine has completely re-
stored them to health and strength,
after every other medicine and the
most skilled medical treatment have
failed. -
One OF the most remarkable cases on
record is that Of Mrs. Viola Ives, of $40
Gross street, Little Rock, Ark, whose
statement appears below.
"In May Of 1913" said Mrs. Ives, 81
suffered a complete breakdown Of my
nerves and my entire system gave
way. About six weeks afterwards I
was carried to the hospital. / became
perfectly helpless-couldn't move any
part Of my hcdy and just lay there in
bed for Eve months, not knowing any
thing or anybody. l was brought home
in October, 1913, and tried all kinds Of
medicine and everything I was told
about.
II read about so many people get
ting relief by taking Tanlac and my
husband got me a bottle. After TAX
ing three bottles l began to feel bet
ter. / have taken several bottles OF
Tanlac now and 1 can walk anywhere
and sleep like a child. When / took
my first dose Of Tanlac 1 weighed only
one hundred and twenty-five pounds.
1 now weigh one hundred and sixty
two-an actual gain of forty pounds
since / started on Tanlac."
Texas Man Testlfies.
Another remarkable case was that
Of John NJ. Crabtree. a general mer-
chant at Five Mile Station A, Dallas,
Tex.
II have actually gained thlrty-four
pounds on three bottles of Tanlac and
1 now know what 1t is to enjoy good
health after suffering for twenty
years." said Mr.. Crabtree.
II suffered with catarrh of the stom-
ach and indigestion for twenty years
and for eighteen months, before I start
ed taking Tanlac, I had to live almost
entirely on cereals. 1 spent nearly all
Of one whole year In bed and was I'M
able to do anything at all and 1 fell
of in weight to 11S pounds.
after using my. third bottle Of Tan
lac I found 1 had increased in weight
from 119 pounds to 152 pounds, max
ing an actual gain of thirty-four
pOunds-an my troubles were gone,
and I was feeling like another man."

WAS TWICE EXAMINED AND
TOLD OPERATION WOULD

CsT HAVE Just finished my third bot
1 tie Of Tanlac and have gained
t~wenty-seven pounds" was the truly
remarkable statement made by Mrs.
Charles Peden, residing at 50 Min
street, Huntsville, Ala.
"when 1 commenced taking the
medicine" she continued. II only
weighed ninety-eight (9s) pounds; now
1 weigh 125 pounds, and never felt
better in my life. For years / have
suffered with a bad form Of stomach
trouble, constipation and pains in my
side and back. At times the pains
took the form Of torture, and l was
twice examined and each time I was
told that I had appendicitis and that
an operation would be my only hope.
II had made all preparations for
the operation and called In my sister
to tell her good-by, as 1 did not know
whether / would live to see her again
or not. My sister begged and pleaded
with me not to allow them to cut on
me and told me to wait and try a good
tonic for awhile. The next day, as
l returned from the consultation room,
1 thought Of what she said. and as
I had heard so much about Tanlac,
1 decided to try 1t and got a bottle"
II never returned for the operation,
but just kept taking the Tanlac. Right
from the start I began to feel better.
The medicine seemed to take hold
right at once.
II was so happy over the wonder
full improvement in my condition that
1 sent for my neighbors to tell them
how much better 1 felt. I sent and got
another bottle Of Tanlac, and have
just finished taking my third bottle
and feel as If 1 have been made all
over again into a new woman.

Commercial Failures Fewer. With
1883 failures, involving S@4. BOO. Inc
country's commercial mortality IN the
first six months Of 1917 made the best
showing since 1911, while the total La
bilities were the smallest for any SINH
lar period in nearly decade.
According to K. G.. Dun d Co. the pres
ent figures compare with 9,4y5 defaults,
involving S111,24lA 2l, reported last
year, and with 1910 for Sloo,5o 1880
in l9l5-the highest point on record.
In the first six months Of 1914 there
were S,543 insolvencies, with aggregate
debts of about Sl85,0OOOOO. II thus
appears that despite the very material
increase in new enterprises and other
factors calculated to enhance the posi-
bilities of financial embarras ment, fall-
ures have been relatively moderate,
and a study Of the latest statement dis
closes no evidence that the economic
readjustmcnts occasioned by the ma
tons participation IN the war nave
caused serious disturbance in business.
The Improvement which featured the
returns during the first three months
of this year was we'll maintained in the
second quarter, and defaults in June
were less numerous than IN the same
month Of 1916 and 1915, with the
smallest liabilities fer the period ex-
cepting those of last year, since 1872.
Geographically examined, the record
discloses practically countrywide I'M
provement in the business mortality,
for there were fewer failures in all Of
the eight sections into which the state
ment is divided. and only in the New
England and Pacific states were the
liabilities larger than in the first hall
of 1916.
