MRS. CASON HAD NO
HOPE OF RETURNING
Went to Atlanta Propped Up
On Pillows. Takes Tanlac
and Gains 35 Pounds.

A short time ago Mr.. j. B. Battle,
who is we'll known in Atlanta, came
into Jacobs Pharmacy to get bottle
of Tanlac for his sister-in-law, Mrs.
o. c. Cason, who lives some distance
out of Atlanta, near Acworth. While
making the purchase, Mr.. Battle told
of the wonderful improvement in
Mrs. Cason's condition since she be-
gan using the medicine.
He also made the statement that
Mrs. Cason felt so grateful for the
wonderful benefit she had received
that she wanted to make a public
statement, as she felt it her duty to
tell the whole world about Tanlac.
He then suggested that DIR. Elder the
Tanlac representative at Jacobs, call
at his residence for a personal inter
view.
When DIR. Elder called at Mr.. Bat
ties residence on English avenue, the
following morning, it happened that
Mr.. Battle himself met him at the
door and very cordially invited him
into his living room. Mrs. Cason,
who was bright and happy, soon made
her appearance and began with de-
light to tell of the wonderful recov-
cry of her health, and her statement
will go down in history as being one
of the most remarkable ever given a
proprietary medicine. Here is her
story in her own words:
about six weeks ago / left my
home on our farm near Acworth, Ca,
to come to my sisters home here in
Atlanta, and / left with only a shad-
ow of hope of ever returning alive
to my home and husband.

ed up on pillows, coming through the
country. | had almost as much medi
cine as had baggage big box full
of all kinds of medicines that had
been prescribed for me. / reached
here very weak and exhausted and
with scarcely enough strength to walk
to the door. The trouble from which
| had suffered so long had reduced
me to almost a shadow, as | only
weighed 60 pounds.
"My brother-in-law, Mr.. Battle,
said, We'll, you have tried everything
else with no relief, now l want you
to lay aside your drug shop" and
take Tanlac' Of course / was will
ling to try it, for the medicine is the
talk of the whole country. Well he

first bottle that day.

take it and it is nothing short of
marvellous how | improved day by

ther from the grave. My appetite
returned and my food seemed to
nourish me. My skin and complexion

am going back to my husband and
home on the little farm five miles
from Acworth tomorrow, and won't
it be a joyful meeting, returning to
my husband and home absolutely well
and happy-and won't tell every
body about what Tanlac has done for
me?

ed in Mr.. Battle about this time.
"Tanlac has simply robbed the grave,
and if you could have seen her when
she started on this medicine, YOU
would say the same thing.
