Keokuk, is another man who called at
the Wilkinson Drug Co., and told how
he had been relieved Of kidney trou-
bic by Tanlac.
MY kidneys were out Of order
Often would have severe pains in my

was poor, too, had to almost force
myself to eat.
"Since taking Tanlac feel a great

Tanlac is highly endorsed by Keo-

Wilkinson Drug Co. and by scores OF
their customers who have tried It and

drowned; since transport enroute
