myself and have had it in some form
or other from once to twice a year
ever since. The first spell left me in
a badly weakened condition, ana
would no sooner recover from one at
tack than would be pulled down
again The doctors at that time calico
it rheumatic grippe and had aches
and pains all through my body, In All
my limbs and muscles. Three years
ago l had one of these spells, whlch
was so severe that they took me to the
hospital, and I nearly died. 1 had
the worse headaches IT seems anyone
could have and / was badly rundown
and frightfully weak. / couldn't sleep
well for all those thirty years. My
appetite was poor. / lost twenty
pounds in weight and just had to drag
myself around. 1 was hardly ever
without some kind of an ache or pain,
and the past spring l was in such
bad fix that We couldn't keep mouse,
so went to my daughters. Ny hus-
band went to boarding and where he
boarded he heard of a remarkable
case like mine, that had been relieved
by Tanlac.
Then he went straight to Sherman
& McConnelrs drug store and got two
bottles, one for me and one for HIM
self, as he was in very bad health,
too. Well. 1 showed some improve
ment on the first bottle and kept on
getting better slowly. My appetite
came gradually. and my strength came
back a little each day. My aches and
pains wore away and 1 got to sleeping
better. When we would see one bot
tie getting low we would hurry to get
another and since 1 finished my sixth
bottle I'm feeling better and more like
myself than 1 have in years. With
all the sickness and Flu epidemic
that's going over the country I'm feel
ing stronger and better than / ever
did. We are keeping house again now
and I eat well, sleep we'll, do all my
housework and feel fine all the time
I am taking Tanlac with the Tanlac

for my husband and me that I will
