cordingly.

His Wfe'S Trouble
Cost Him Over Two
Thousand Dollars


After spent two thousand
dollars for medicines for my wife
without doing her any good. il
sure does seem wonderful to me
that just a few bottles of Tanlas
have restored her to health
again, is the remarkable state
ment made a few days ago BY
Harry C. French. who resides al
240 La Branch street, Houston,
Texas.
Several months ago. he con.
tinued. my wife's health failed,
she lost her appetite and. before
| realized it, her condition was
so bad that she was in dan
ger of a complete breakdown.
What little she forced herself to
eatdisagreed with erandshe suf-
fered agonies from the gas that
rose from the undigested food in
her stomach. She was badly
constipated and suffered from
such terrible headaches that her
nervous system went all to pieces
and she couldn't sleep more than
half the night. She worried SO
much over her condition and be-
came so respondent that she
would hardly speak a dozen words
during the day.
II got several specialists to pre-
scribe for her and got her to take
many different medicines and
positively nothing did her the
least good but Tanlac. Soon af-
ter she started on her first bottle
/ noticed that she was picking up
and getting to be more cheerful
and she has continued to improve
right along ever since. She eats
anything she wants now and it
all agrees with her. she talks and
laughs most all the time and is
always in a good humor. She
sleeps like a child and nothing
worries her at all. In fact. she
is entirely like a different per-
son."
Tanlac is sold in .Colfax by
Dixie Pharmacy and by one regu-
lar established agehcv in every
town.
