"SURELYDID THE WORK"
This Is What J. A. Dale Says of
Tanlac.
Well Known Pattern Maker Had
Suffered for Eight Years.

After I had gotten so much relief
by taking Tanlac I began telling my
friends and acquaintances about 1t
and have been surprised at the num-
Der of them that tell me they have
also been benefited by usinc it," said
J. A. Dale. of 526 Arlington avenue,
Mt. Washington, Mo. while in the
Owl drug store, in Kansas City, Mo,
recently. MT. Dale is a metal pattern
mako and has been employed at this
work for the past eight years.
II was in a bad fix from stomach
trouble and nervous indigestion" con-
tlnued Mr. Dale, land this trouble had
been with me for about eight years. I
didn't have any appetite to speak of
rnd what little I did eat Just seemed
To sour on my stomach and form gas
and would suffer terribly afterwards.
Sometimes it looked like everything 1
would cat would just lodge in my
stomach in a hard lump and feel
heavy like lead. and 1 was awfully
nervous and didn't seem to have a
particle or energy about me. L was
troubled a lot with constipation, too.
and had to be taking something all
the time for this trouble and at times
I would suffer with terrible headaches
and have dizzy spells. I used to have
such awful rains in my stomach
sometimes that I Just couldn't rest
Mt night and finally got to where I
felt 50 tagged out and no account that
II Just seemed IKE a drag for me to
get about.
II was feeling in just this shape
when / got to reading where some of
the people around here had gotten
relief ny taking Tanlac. so I decided
TO try II myself I didn't have much
faith in it to start with. but GER
tainlv changed my mind in no time.
because 7 hadn't taken more than
about four doses of the medicine till
I could notice a difference. My Rp-
petite picked up the first thing and
commenced tn relish what I would eat
and didn't suffer so much with gas on
my stomach. and now my stomach is
in fine shape and I can eat Just any
thinr and everything I want and am
never troubled a bit with my stom-
nch afterwards. and. as for my APP
petite. well. II hasn't been so good in
eight years. I have been relieved Of
constipation entirely. my nerves have
been straiahtened out in fine shape
md can sleep like a log at night and
don't aet uD in the morning feeling
all worn out like used to: in fact.
am in better general health right now
than I have been in years. TanlaC
