Magnificent New Laboratory
Has Daily Capacity of
$4,000 Bottles.

What is said to be one Of the largest
pharmaceutical laboratories in the
United States has been completed at
Dayton, Ohio, for the manufacture of
Tanlac, the well-known medicine,
which, according to recent reports, is
now having the largest sale Of any
medicine of its 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 sup
ply the ever-incraasing demand which
at the present rate of sale will mount
TO more than five million bottles for
the present yea alone.
By the erection Of this plant the man
1faeturers Of Tanlac are giving to the
remarkable growth and expansion of
their business, and Of their absolute
confidence in its future.
This announcement will be read with
interest not only by the many thou
sands of Taniac agents scattered
throughout every state Of the Union
and throughout Canada. but to the mil
lions who have used it beneficially as
we'll.
The new building occupies 60, 900
square feet Of floor space, It is six
stories in height, practically f~ire-proof
throughout, and is Of striking archi-
t%ectural design, It also has private
railway facilities.
This beautiful new structure now
stands In striking contrast beside the
older building where Tanlac was first
made.
Visitors to the laboratories are strong
ly impressed with the extremely mod
ern character Of the equipment. Every
thing Is provided and ~splendidly ar
ranged TO promote systematic and rapid
production. The very latest machinery
and devices known to invention and
pharmaceutical science are here used
The interior throughout is finished
in spotless white. n all of the large
force Of employees wear white uniforms,
which they are required to change
floor are all finished in Carara marble
and mahogany.
The entire process Of manufacture is
conducted under absolutely sanitary
conditions. Even the bottles made ex-
pressly to contain Tanlac are washed
and sterilized electrically by the ultra
violet ray process. They are then
filled by automatic machinery and the
finished product is therefore never
touched by human hands.
When Tanlac was introduced into
Canada history repeated itself, and the
demand which had been created in tho
United States was quickly duplicated
in the Dominion Provinces. AS a re-
suit, it was recently found necessary
to establish another Tanlac laboratory

somewhat smaller scale than the plant
4 at Dayton, but Is no less modernly
equipped.
These new facilities give a daily ca
pacity of $4,000 bottles, but as Tanlac
Is rapidly being introduced into foreign
, countries 1t is probably only a question
: of a few ears before even larger facili'
ties will become necessary.
While the manufacturers are neces-
sarily working for capacity production
II is 4 fundamental rule OF h Tanlat
Laboratories that the quality OF tn
medicine shall never be sacrificed tc
secure quantity output.
Uniform quality is guaranteed by :
series OF careful inspections by expert
chemists, from the time the roots, herbs
and banks are received In their rough
state from all parts Of the globe unit
their medicinal properties have beer
extracted by the most approved proc
esses. The finished medicine Is theI
bottled, labelled and shipped out T.
the tens Of thousands Of druggists
throughout the United States ant
Canada, to supply a demand never be
fore equalled for this or any other medi
cine.
The executive sales offices are 10
Gated In Atlanta, Ca, and occupy al
most an entire floor Of the Fourth Ma
tional Bank Building Of that city.
Tanlac il sold in Memphis by War
mock Drug Co. and Weiss Pharmacy
and by the leading druggists In prac
tically every city, town and village II
America. adV
