Bottles.

4 ~
in the United States has been com
pleted at Dayton. Ohio, for the manu-
facture of Tanlac, the well-known
medicine, which according to recent
reports is now having the largest
sale of any medicine OF it's kind In
the world.
The erection of the new plant was
made necessary by the rapid growth
of the business, as the older plant
was found to be wholly Inadequate
to supply the ever-increasing demand
which at the present rate Oh SAFE
will amount to more than five mil
lion bottles for the present year
alone.
BY the erection Of this plant the
manufacturers of Tanlac are giving
to the world just one more evidence
of the remarkable growth and expan-
sion of their business, and OF their
absolute confidence in its future. .
This announcement will be read
with interest not only by the many
thousands of Tanlac agents scattered
tthroughout every state of the union
and throughout Canada, but to the
millions who have used 1t benehclaliy
as WE'LL $500
The new building occupies 10000
square feet of floor space. 1t is SIX
stories in height, practically nre-
proof throughout, and is OF STRIKING
architectural design. 1t also has pri-
vate railway facilities.
This beautiful new structure now
stands in striking contrast BESIDE the
older building where Tanlac was nrst
made.
Visitors to the laboratories are
strongly impressed with the ex-
tremely modern character or tne
equipment. Everything is provided
and splendidly arranged to promote
systematic and rapid production.
The very latest machinery and de-
vices known to invention and pnar-
imaceutical science are here used
The interior throughout is finished
in spotless white, and all of the large
force Of employees wear white uni
forms, which they are required 10
change daily. The main offices on
the first floor are all finished IN
iCarara marble and mahogany
The entire process OF manufacture
I,s conducted under absolutely SAM
itary conditions Even the bottles
made expressly to contain Taniac are
washed and sterilized electrically
by the ultra violet ray process. Ihey
are then filled by automatic machln-
ery and the finished product Is there
fore never touched by human hands.
When Tanlac was introduced into
Canada history repeated itself, ana
the demand which had been created
I'm the United States was quickly
duplicated in the Dominion Prov
iinces AS result, it was recen1ly
found necessary to establish another
ITanlac Laboratory at Windsor, Can
ada. which is on a somewhat smaller
scale than the plant at Dayton, out
is no less modernly equipped
These new facilities give daily
CAPACITY Of $4,000 bottles, but as
Tanlac is rapidly being introduced
into foreign countries It is probably
only a question of rev years be-
fore even large facilities will become
necessary.
While the manufacturers are
necessarily working for capacity pro.
duction, it is fundamental rule OF
the Tanlac Laboratories that the
quality of the medicine shall never
be sacrificed to secure quantity out
put.
Uniform quality is guaranteed by
IA series of careful inspections by
expert chemists, from the time the
roots. herbs, and barks are received
in their rough state from all parts
of the globe until their medicinal
properties have been extracted by
the most approved processes. me
finished medicine is then bottteo'
labelled. and shipped out to the tens
Iof thousands of druggists throughout
the United States and Canada, to
supply demand never pefofe
eoualled for this or any other medl-
cine.
The executive sales offices are
located in Atlanta, Georgia, and
occupy almost an entire moor OF the
Fourth National Bank Building Oh
