MANY PROMINENT MEN
COME OUT FOR TANLAC
Mayors, Judges, State and
County Officials All
Indorse Tanlac.

1t is seldom, indeed that men of
prominence, especially men holding
high public office. willingly express
their Indebtedness publicly to a
proprietary medicine. Many promi-
nent men. however, including supreme
court judges, mayors of our leading
cities, prominent state and county off,
Gals, bankers, lawyers, doctors. edi-
tors, leading educators, government
officials and even ministers of the gos-
pei have deemed it their duty to come
forward and tell the people what Tan
lac has done for them.
These well-known men of affairs
have recognized in this medicine a
new discovery and a scientific tri-
umph in the medical world. 1t is a
well-known fact that these splendid
Endorsements have been given Tanlac
time and time again, and they will
continue to be given just as often as
new tests of its powers are made, and
it also explains why numbers of the
big drug firms of the country are or
dering it exclusively in carload lots.
Appearing below are a few indorse-
ments from the large number that are
continually being given to the public.

REV. A. H. SYKES
MUCH lGRATIFIED
Tells of Remarkable Change
in His Wife's Condition;
Gives Tanlac Credit

The Rev A. H. Sykes, pastor of the
Watkins Park Presbyterian church,
Nashville. Tenn, prominent not only
as a minister of the gospel, but pop
ular as a man and citizen who has
been true to his friends and every
trust reposed in him. said recently:
For the past 10 months Mrs.
Sykes has been in very delicate he..lta,
suffering from bad stomach and kid
ney troubles, which gradually devel-
oped into general nervous break
down. At times her condition became
alarming, and I frequently sought
medical advice, but nothing we could
do for her seemed to bring relief.
'In fact, she suffered SO long and
so much that I feel it my duty to let
every one know what this medicine
has done for her. For several
months her condition was such that
she had to remain in bed, and as a
last resort decided to let her try
Tan1ac.
Il am conservative man and have
always been skeptical regarding the
use Va proprietary iHeQlclNeS, DuC this
case has certainly proven an excep-
ton. am now firmly convinced that
Tanlac is medicine of great power
and extraordinary merit 1 do not
think 1 have ever seen anything 20
give such prompt results. Mrs. Sykes
had taken only two-thirds of a bottle
OF this medicine when we began to
notice a marked Improvement in her
condition. In less than a week from
the time she began taking it she was
able to sit up, and is today able to
help with the household duties. Be
fore she began taking Tanlac she had
fearful pains in her side and suffered
constantly from sour stomach and in
digestion, and was intensely nervous.
These distressing symptoms, I am
thankful to say, have entirely disap-
peared, her appetite has returned and
she seems to relish everything she
eats. She sleeps better and is gaining
strength and flesh rapidly. 1 think it
only a question of short time until
her health is fully restored
''Tanlac has certainly proven a re-
markable remedy in her case, and will
do all you claim for it. 1 cheerfully
recommend it to my friends"

BIG BANKERS OF
THE SOUTH NOW
ENDORSE TANLAC
Officials of Well-Known FL
nancial Institutions Tell
Their Experience.

Two of the best known bankers in
the Southern states recently on the
same day in personal letters told of
their remarka BILE experience with the
use of Tanlac Their letters follow
exactly as written.
The first letter quoted comes
through Ell W. Goode, druggist and
local agent for Tar1.c at Hawkins
vile. Ga. tanning the statement of
E. ]. Henry. president of the Hawkins
Vile Bank and Trust company, which
is one of the best known financial in
situations in that part of the state. His
letter follows, just as it was written:
"Hawkinsville. Ga, March S, 1917.
Mr.. G. F. Willis. Atlanta, Georgia:
Dear Sir: Mr.. z. ]. Henry. presi-
dent of the HawkinsviIIe Bank and
Trust company. came into my store
a few days ago and said: ELI, sell
me another bottle of Tanlac'
II said. Mr.. Henry, what do you
really think of Tanlac?' His reply was
so commendable to the virtues of the
medicine that asked him If he would
give me a signed statement about IT.
this is his statement:
Last spring was all wrong some
way or other and couldn't get right.
I came to you and bought a bottle of
Tanlac and began to improve. Two
more bottles put me all right, and I
felt perfectly well. A few weeks ago
1 had the grippe and was beginning to
get down and out again. and about a
week ago I bought another bottle and
have taken it and am perfectly well
again.
ct unhesitating1y recommend Tan
lac to any one who is lick and worn
out, as I believe that If anybody will
take Tanlac when they first begin to
feel badly it will prevent and keep off
sickness 1t certainly is a great rem
edy.
(Signed) "'E. ]. HENRY, President
" 'Hawkinsville Bank and Trust CO."
The other letter referred to comes
from the ca ihier of the Hornbeck
branch of the West Louisiana Bank
at Hornbeck, La, and is as follows:
"Hornbeck. La, March 5. 1871.
"Mr. G. F. Willis, Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Sir: I wish to say that I
have taken five (5) bottles of Tanlac
and have g;:ned fifteen (15) pounds
in three weeks. 1 think it is a great
medicine.

KENTUCKY NOTABLES
ARE ENTHUSIASTIC

Hon. Moses r. Glenn Of Frankfort.
KY, State Superintendent of Public
Printing, a man of wide experience
and one who has been true to his
friends and to every public trust, said
on his last visit to Louisville:
81 am a conservative man and have
had very little faith in medicine of
any kind, but feel it my duty to my
fellow men to state publicly what
your medicine has done for me.
The catarrhal condition of
my nose, head and throat was simply
distressing, and I had almost decided
to go to a warm climate, preferably
Florida, when I decided to try Tam
lac. I am now a well man,
and 1 propose to tell others of the
good this medicine has done me-"
Among the Kentuckians in public
life who have given their unqualified
approval of Tanlac for its specific aid
to them are:
Hon. Mckenzie Moss. Judge of the
Eighth judicial district: Hon. Moses

8 o'clock this morning.
The sky was overcast and 1t was
raining Internationally. The artillery
duel which continued all night, was
still raging. There was considerable
aerial activity despite unfavorable
weather and great quantities of bombs
were dropped on the rear areas of both
armies.
Failure of the enemy to new his at
tacks may be significant, as infantry
actions usually start before o'clock.
The German attack on the Marine
began yesterday at a. m. Initial at
tempts of the enemy to bridge the riv-
er were frustrated by American artil-
lery and machine gun fire.
Germans Got Six PontoOnS Across.
As the boche fire was concentrated
on the American positions in the bend
of the river. from three sides, our
men gradually fell back in perfect or
der and the Germans succeeded in
throwing six. pontoons across.
Following the cleverest dictates of
strategy, the American retirement con-
tinued until our men reached the base
of the salient created by the bend in
the river. There they halted at 10
o'clock and resisted all efforts of the
boches to dislodge them.

The counter-attack was resumed
after a brief pause. This time the
American assault was conducted with
an almost unbelievable ferocity. The

DIR. J. T. EDWARDS
PRESCRIBES IT

DIR. J. T. Edwards of Fayetteville.
Ga. one of the best known members
of the medical profession in the state
of Georgia, makes a statement that
will undoubtedly produce profound
impression throughout the country.
"In my thirty years of active prac-
tice as a licensed physician in the
state of Georgia." says DIR. Edwards.
"I have never seen anything to equal
Tanlac as a medicine to produce re-
suits. I hear people on all sides tell
ing of the benefits they have derived
from its use.
"Tanlac is simply the talk OF my
town. 1 have no hesitancy in recon-
mending the medicine, and as mat
ter of fact 1 am prescribing 1t for my
patients almost every day.
"Only few days ago a well-known
woman of Fayetteville came to me
and told me about the remarkable re-
lief her daughter had gained from the
use of this medicine. She said her
daughter had been confined to her
bed for three years with what had
been pronounced pellagra, land that
after using Tanlac for a short time
she was able to be about and was on
the road to recovery.
But this is only one instance. Peo-
pie in all walks of life in and around
our little city are giving similar in
dorsements to the medicine. Seldom
day passes that someone does not
come to me and say something about
the good results they are getting from
the use of Tanlac."

Than He Ever Did in His
Life Since Taking Tanlac

One of the latest additions to the

dorsed Tanlac for the good it has done
them is the name of Hon. Frank

Mr.. Evans is one of the best known
men in public life in Alabama today.

South's greatest newspapers. the
Birmingham Age-Herald. He was also
examiner of public accounts in Ala

had derived from Tanlac, Mr.. Evans
said:
For years I suffered with gastritis
and Indigestion in the worst form. I
was habitually constipated and had
pains in my shoulders and headache
continually. Ny appetite left me al
most entirely and everything I would
eat hurt me. Finally got to having
awful attacks of acute indigestion. PAL
pitation of the heart and smottering
spells. For long time would have
one or more of these spells every night
and I would wake out of my restless
sleep gasping for breath.
'I bought a bottle of Tanlac, and
to my surprise and qualification I be-
gan to feel relief after the first few

and my recovery is simply the talk of
