Prosperous Farmer Was Co
ing Down Hill Rapidly
Now Eats Better, Sleeps
Better and Works Better.

mo sir. | wouldn't take a hundred
acres Of the best land in Georgia for
the good Tanlac has done me-" said
z. 7. Moody, a well-to-do farmer of
Greensboro, Ga, when he came in to
E. H. Armour's Drug Store the other
day to get another bottle of Tanlac
Il suffered sc from indigestion that
| got to the place where l dreaded
to go to the table almost, because it
just meant misery to me to eat.
Everything l ate soured in my
stomach and gas would form and
swell my stomach until it was almost
as tight as the bark on tree. | got
short Of hearth and dizzy when l
did any hard work and just felt worn
out all over post of the time l was
nervous and restless at nigth and
could hardly sleep at all, and when
l got up in the morning, instead of
being rested, I felt almost as bad as
II l had done a days blowing. My
kidneys were all out Of order and
pestered me all the time
Il just drug along, trying every
thing I found that was recommended,
but instead Of getting better, [ kept
going down hill all the time. I ought
to have been in bed lot of times
when | would just make myself go
right on in spite Of my feelings. One
day heard some Of my friends talk
ing about this new medicine, Tanlac,
and from what they said about it, |
thought maybe it might help me. l
got bottle and started taking it.
We'll sir, I can now eat anything
the folks put on the table and it
seems like the more l eat, the more
| enjoy 1t, for [ never have a bit of
trouble with my digestion since I
begun taking Tanlac. l can go to
sleep almost as soon as / hit the bed
and sleep sound all night and feel
rested and full of life in the morn
ing. The trouble with my kidneys
is all gone and | never have the
hurting in my back any more.
81 feel like a different man all over
and l always recommend Tanlac,
because it helped me more than any
thing | ever took in my life"

tablished agency i'll every town.

Don't be nhisled by this term, for
the, appearance of pimples. boils or
rashes indicate something more Sc

the skin. These eruptions are, in
reality, signals from nature that the

in need of help. Of course you can
sometimes drive away the infected
places by applying a salve or lotion,
but unless you treat them through the
medium of the blood, they will occur
again and again.
