FOREMAN SAYS n SAVED HIS
LIFE.
Mahoney Never Expected To Get out
of Bed Again Now Back
At Work.

Many wonderful endorsements have
been given Tanlac, but the statement
made October 9th by James Mahoney,
of % East 18th ST., Los Angeles,
Cal, is SO remarkable as to be almost
incredible.
Mr.. Mahoney, however, is a man of
unquest;oned integrity and has been
foreman at the Richards Naustadt
Construction Co. ten years. His neigh
bors have coroborated his remarkable
statement in every detail and will do
so again if called upon.
at was being talked among my
friends" said Mr.. Mahoney, "that /
was going to die, and don't believe
anyone ever had much closer call.
Closely following an injury to my
back, caused by lifting some steel
last July year ago, my whole system
seemed to give way, Ny stomach hurt
ing me terribly and suffered gas
and Indigestion. There seemed to be
a lump in my stomach and could
not eat thing without intense pain
afterwards. My appetite left me en-
tirely and got so weak l could not
even lift ten pounds. Then became
constipated and my kidneys got out
of order and disturbed me so at
night could not sleep sound. / was
in misery all the time and so weak
l could not lift my feet to go up the
steps. could not straighten up for
the pain in my stomach. Before these
troubles started l weighed one hun
dred and forty-five, but dropped down
until weighed only sixty-five pounds,
and if there was ever a living skele-
ton was. could hear my friends,
who came in to see me, say, Poor
Jim, he can't last much longer and
l had no hope myself of ever getting
up. In spite of all that could be done
l kept getting worse. The lump. like
feeling in my stomach seemed to get
larger and the pain more intense.
Finally I was told nothing more could
be done except to operate, and / was
too weak to stand that.
Zone day a friend, who had been
coming to see me so often, told me
how Tanlac had helped his daughter
and urged me to try it. At first re-
fused, as my wife was opposed to
anything except prescribed medicines.
But one day this friend offered to go
and get me a bottle of Tanlac with
the understanding that no one else
know about it. Well, started taking
| it and by the time he brought me the
third bottle was feeling better l
stopped everything else, kept taking
Tanlac and slowly improving. soon
noticed the pain in my stomach cas-
ing up and that lumpy feeling began
to leave. / got to eating something
and then commenced getting back my
lost weight and strength. kept tax
ing it until used twenty bottles and
as result am in better shape than
YVES for years-even before / was
taken sick. now weigh one hun
dred and thirty pounds, so you see
my weight has exactly doubled. am
working every day and can do the
heavy lifting just the same as ever
could. l am not bothered any more
with my kidneys or constipation and
sleep like a top every night. Ny
food tastes good and my appetite
is simply fine. Ny wife now thinks
| just as do. that Tanlac is the grand
est medicine in the world. l will
praise it as long as / live, and ex-
pect never to be without it."
