 Dear Sir-As you expressed desire to hear more about my case, I will try and tell you part of it. I was down and out nearly all the time for two years with Rheumatism and stomach trouble, and went to eight doctors, two of whom were osteopaths. Three of them refused to take my case, saying it was incurab be, and the others might as well have done eo as they did me no good. I guess l have taken barrel of medicines inter- nally and externally. I also went to Hot Springs and out of all that was ever $ done I never got over one weeks relief at time
 After going down to 116 pounds-which h very light for a six-footer--I kept get ting worse, until I couldn't move. even to feed myself, had no desire to eat and couldn't sleep more than two hours a night Some of the officials of the mine, of which I am foreman, would call to zee me, then go out and say, Poor old Scott has fired his last man." My wife thought I would never get out of bed alive, and she knew my condition better than anybody else.
 At last when I lay helpless, my wife ordered bottle of Tanlac from the drug gist at Fl Paso, Tex, which was the nearest place we could get it at that time < One evening about four days after I be- < gan taking Tanlac I ate fair meal and enjoyed it, the first in many months By the time I had taken half of the first bottle I thought I had a good appetite but when finished my second bottle could hardly eat enough to satisfy me x Well, I have just finished my ninth bottle have gained IS pounds and am back on the job every day.
