TEN CARLOADS
ORDERED BY BIG
WESTERN firms
Largest Orders Ever Given for
a Single Proprietary Medi-
cine by Western Drug Firms
in History of Drug Trade.

Ten carloads of Tanlac are moving
from the laboratories at Dayton, Ohio,
toward the Pacific coast, in response
to orders given by the leading drug
firms of Boise. Salt Lake City, Ogden,
Spokane, Seattle, Calgary, Vancouver.
Portland. San Francisco and Los An
geles.
These tremendous orders, the largest
ever placed in the west and on the Pa
cific coast for proprietary medicine,
are to supply the phenomenal demand
for Tanlac in the west Canadian north
west and coast cities. The immensely
Of such orders can only be realized
when 1t is understood that each car of
Tanlac contains 1860 dozen, or 12,7OO
bottles, the entire ten carloads repre-
senting 127.200 bottles of this celebrat-
ed medicine.
In speaking OF the above orders and
Of the phenomenal growth and devel-
opment of the Tanlac industry, Mr.. e.
c. Harris, the Tanlac representative,
said:
Having heard through absolutely
reliable sources of the remarkable and
rapidly growing demand for Tanlac
throughout the United States and Can
ada, the leading drug firms of the west
and Pacific coast did not hesitate for
a moment to accept the agencies and tn
assure us Of their hearty co cooperation
in making Tanlac just as successful
in the far west as 1t is in the south,
east and middle west
1T is nothing unusual" continued
Mr.. Harris, "for dealers to order a car
load of Tanlac and have orders for
every bottle of it before the car ar
rives. In fact, many OF the Tanlac
Jobbers and distributors invariably or
der the second and third cars before
the car ell route has time to reach
them"
When asked for further information
regarding his plans. Mr.. Harris said
Both Mr. Cooper and myself have
long regarded Boise as one Of the best
distributing points in the west and ar
engagements are now being made to es-
tablish branch office and distribut-
Ing depot. l shall remain here long
enough to superintend the introduction
of Tanlac, and from what can see md
hear OF your enterprisng, hustling city,
l do not believe it will be a great while
before Tanlac will be selling equally as
well in Boise as in other sections Of the
country"

HARRIS Tells WHY
SALES ARE LARGE
Its What the Neighbors Say
About It That Really
Counts" Declares Special
Representative.

These enormous sales said Mr.. E.
c. Harris, the Tanlac representative,
mean but one thing, and that is-merit.
Tanlac is well advertised it is true, but
such a large and rapidly growing de-
mand could not be brought about by
advertising alone. It's what the neigh
bors say that counts. One bottle is sold
in a neighborhood through advertising,
but ten more are sold in. that commu-
nifty after that first bottle produces
results; and that's right where Tanlac
scores. People are always willing to
talk about their ailments, but they are
more than willing to tell others of the
medicine that helps them. It's some
thing they couldn't keep to themselves
if they tried, for the impulse to SYM
pathize with neighbors and want to help
them Is one OF the strongest as well as
one of the biggest things in human ma
ture.
"Tanlac is producing these results"
he continued, land that is why nothing
on earth can keep it out of the homes
of the people. 1t is not only the mos;
talked about medicine in the world to-
day, but in my opinion, 1t is the best
and most efficient. And although
prominent officials and leaders
throughout the country have Endorsed
Tanlac, it's greatest prestige is firm
ly based on the unqualified indorse-
ment of the masses of the people.

but the figures are more. The figures

November IS. 1917.
Mr.. G. F.. Willis, International Distrib-
utor of Tanlac, Fourth National Bank
Bldg, Atlanta, Ga:
Ny Dear Mr.. Wiilis-Replying to your
inquiry we are glad to make statement
of our exact experience with Tanlac:
When you called on us the latter part
of 1916 we could not comprehend the
extent of business Tanlac was having.
as reported to US from other states.
We hati. however. heard something OF
Tanlac in the southern states near US.
and. believing in the statements as
made by you we agreed to cooperate
and act as your agent for our imme-
date territory. which covers one quar-
ter of the state of Texas. though a
very sparsely settled portion. When
you spoke of our buying Tanlac in car
load lots, ! confess We were a little bit
skeptical.
Although your campaign did not be-
gin until February. 1917, from that
time until this good day Tanlac has
been the greatest patent medicine
seller we have ever handled or had any
thing to do with. In six months time
we bought and distributed EIGHT car
loads. Very respectfully,

SPREADS over
nation
Celebrated Medicine Is Now
Sold From Coast to Coast
and From Gulf of Mexico to
Great Lakes.

Never before, perhaps, in all history
has the demand for proprietary medi-
cine ever approached the wonderful rec
ord that is now being made by Tan
lac. the celebrated medicine which has
been accomplishing such remarkable re-
suits in all parts of the country.
The old illustration Of the pebble
dropped into the pool best describes
the marvellous growth Of the ever-in-
creasing demand and it's fame has
swept over the entire nation like a
great tidal wave.
From coast to coast and from the
gulf to the great lakes Tanlac is known
and honored Millions have taken it
and have pronounced it the greatest
medicine ever given to the people, and
the only explanation Of Tanlac's' tri-
umph in the medical world is Tanlac's
true worth. Back Of Tanlac's triumph
n the drug stores is Tanlacs triumph in
the home. 1t is the peoples medicine
and the people themselves have made
Tanlac what 1t is.
No matter where you go Tanlac is a
household word and it is unquestion-
ably the most widely talked of medi-
cine in the world today. One person
invariably tells another about a medi-
cine that helps him and in this way
scores or even hundreds may hear of
Tanlac as a direct result of one bottle
in a single home.

appointed by you. 64,S4S bottles OF
Tanlac. and this in section long on

| must confess that your story of sue
cess with Tanlac in other fields when
you first came to us would have sound
ed something like 4 fairy tale but for
the fact TINT VIC had some advance in
forma ton about what you had done in
other territory and we otherwise would
have been exceedingly skeptical.
You have made good all that you
promised to do in this territory, and
then some. At all times you have been
! Nlsonable and flair in your methods and
can certainly be depended upon to carry
out any verbal or written contract that
may be made with you.
I consider that no dealer will make
a mistake in taking on the distribution
of Tanlac in your territory.
Yours very sincerely.
