MRS. CHAS. PEDEN GAINS
27 POUNDS
TWICE EXAMINED AND EACH
TIME TOLD OPERATION WAS
ONLY HOPE

Il have just finished my third bot
tie of Tanlac and have gained twenty
seven pounds" was the truly remark
able statement made by Mrs. Chas.
Peden, residing at $50 Mill street,
Huntsville, Ala. Mrs. Peden is one
of the best known and highly respect
ed women of that thriving little city,
where she has made her home for a
number of years.
When commenced taking the
medicine, she continued, Il only
weighed ninety-eight pounds. now /
weigh 125 pounds and never felt bet
ter in my life. For years / have suf-
fered with bad form of stomach
| trouble, constipation and pains in my
side and back. At times the pains
took the form of torture and | was
twice examined and each time l was
told that | had appendicitis and that
an operation would be my only hope.
! had fallen off until / only weighed
lninety-eight pounds and was so weak
| could hardly get around.
| Il had no appetite at all scarcely,
and what little | did eat would cause
gas to form in my stomach, which
gave me palpitation of the heart, sick
headaches and a dizzy feeling about
/ the head. When the spells came on !
would get awfully nervous. | worried
about myself until | could rest and
sleep but little.
I had fallen off until ] was almost
skin and bones and my strength and
energy were slowly leaving me. /
had dread of the future and could
see nothing but the operating table
and the knife. | had a perfect hor-
ror of an operation, but / had made
up my mind that it was either life or
death and prepared to submit to it.
had made all preparations for the
| operation and called on my sister to
/ tell her goodbye, as | did not know
whether | would live to see her again
or not. My sister begged and plead
with me not to allow them to cut on
me and told me to wait and try good
tonic for a while. The next day, as
returned from the consultation room
thought of what she said and as /
had heard so much about Tanlac /
decided to try it as a last resort and
stopped at Gilbert's Drug Store and
bought bottle. OF course had lost
heart and had no faith in the medi-
cine, but to please my sister | made
up my mind to take it and oh, what
a happy day that was for mel
Il never returned for the operation,
but just kept taking the Tanlac. Right
from the start / began to feel better
The medicine seemed to take hold
right at once. 1t had a soothing eff
feet and in few days / felt no pain
at all. was so happy over the won
derful improvement in my condition
that ] sent for my neighbors to tell
them how much better | felt. / sent
and got another bottle of Tanlac, and
have just finished taking my third
bottle and feel like have been made
all over again into new woman.
AS | have said before, | now weigh
125 pounds, and my improvement has
been so rapid that none of my clothes
are big enough for me. | will have to
make them all over again. | now
have a ravenous appetite and my hus-
band says I am simply eating him out
of house and home. have even gone
back to my coffee which was told
not to touch. Those terrible pains
in my back and head have all disap-
peared and sleep like child. / am
no longer nervous anG when / get up
mornings | feel refreshed, cheerful
and bright. am now able to attend
to my household duties and | feel as
if had started life all over again.
My husband is highly delighted, and
my recovery is the talk of the neigh
borhood. / do nothing but rejoice all
day long over the recovery of my
health and praise Tanlac to every
body.
81 feel so grateful for my escape
from the operating table and the knife
that you may publish what / have
said; you may, if you will, tell other
women suffering as | was, to come
and see me and | will be glad to tell
them all about my case"
