1T A DUTY
Mrs. Bryant Wants Others to
Know Good Tanlac Is Doing.
Had Suffered Ten Years
Troubles Are Over Now.

"Others helped me by telling what
Tanlac did for them and now 1 want
to help someone else by telling what
it has. done for me-" said Mrs. Mar
CARTE Bryant, of 703 Olive street,
Kansas City, Mo, to a Taniac repre-
sentative, recently.
II suffered with stomach trouble
and nervous indigestion for something
like ten years." continued Mrs. Bry-
ant. II hardly had any appetite at
all and practically everything I ate
just seemed to sour on my stomach
and form gas that pressed SO badly
against my heart sometimes that felt
like it would surely stop beating. l
was troubled a great deal with short
ness of breath and if I exerted my
self the least bit 1 was sure to get
so weak could hardly stand up and.
at times, 1 was so awfully nervous
that any little noise out of the ordi-
nary would supset me completely. /
didn't seem able to get a good nights
rest and often just rolled and tossed
about nearly all night long and when
1 got up in the morning actually felt
as tired, or more so. than when went
to bed. Dizzy spells gave me a great
deal of trouble, too, and when one of
these attacks come on me I just had
to catch hold of something to keep
from falling. and 1 finally got in such
badly rundown condition could
hardly keep going.
Then read where so many people
right here in Kansas City claimed they
had been relieved of trouble just like
mine by taking Tanlac, that 1 made
up my mind to give it a trial. too. so
1 bought a bottle and it helped me so
much that I got another and kept i'm
proving right along. 1 began to eat
better and could enjoy my meals and
1 wasn't troubled so much with gas
forming in my stomach. until now /
can eat Just anything 1 want and rel
ish every mouthful and I never have
trouble from my stomach any more
and never feel tired and worn out like
ness and gas, I'm not bothered with
that distressing feeling around my
heart. I am so much stronger that
can do by Homework with ease now
and enver feel tired and wornout like
I used to and I can sleep just like
little child the whole night through
and get up in the morning feeling per-
fectly rested. Right now my general
health is better than it has been in
years and I am glad to say a
good word for Tanlac, because it has
brought me out So"
Tanlac is sold in Topeka by Tully-
Mcfarland Drug Co, S35 Kansas ave
