For 2 Months He Couldn't
Earn a Dollar" Tanlac
Put Me on My Feet"

ut has been twenty-seven months
since I earned a dollar, but, thanks to
the quick results Of Tanlac, am going
back to work in just few days, SAID
]. w. Bell, in an interview at the home
of his brother, 948 West 31st street,
indianapolis, recently.
Mr. Bells home Is at As Eldorado
street, Stockton, California. where he
owns valuable property and is we'll
known. Mr.. Bell has been foreman of
the bridge building department Of the
Sante Fee railroad for nearly thirty
years. He formerly lived at Fort Mad
ison, Iowa, but was transferred to the
Frisco division of his road thirteen
years ago and has lived at Stockton
ever since.
During those twenty-seven months"
continued Mr. Bell. Il spent thirty
seven hundred dollars with the hos
pitfalls, nurses and druggists. to say
nothing Of railroad fare-fOr I have a
pass-in going from place to place,
trying to regain my health and just
to think that few bottles of Tanlac
at cost almost too small to mention
has put me on my feet certainl,
strikes me as being remarkable. My
trouble all started from a case Of
ptomain poisoning down in Stockton.
After being treated in Stockton for
several weeks and getting no better l
was sent to a hospital in San Francis
co where l stayed for eight weeks.
When | got out | hardly had strength
to walk across the street and had act
ually lost fiftyfive pounds in weight.
Everything / ate would sour on my
stomach and blOat me up with gas TN
til | could hardly bend over. | kept on
being treated and living on a diet
without getting any better until l al
most gave up hope. l could drink no
coffee and could only eat the very
lightest of foods, such as poached
eggs, mush and milk toast. also
spent a month or more at the springs
near Sacramento but with everything
that was done for me I got worse in
stead of better.
During last May I decided to come
to indianapolis, as l have two broth
ers living here, and thinking possibly
the change Of climate might help to
put my stomach in order and restore
my strength. When I got off the
train I barely had strength to get out
to my brothers house. Time rocked
along-me still on my diet-but I new
er did take a turn for the better until
began taking Tanlac about six weeks
ago. I commenced to improve before
had finished my first bottle of Tan
lac and have been steadily climbing
up hill ever since. l have Just finish
ed my fifth bottle now and am fifteen
pounds heavier than when I took my
first dose. There is absolutely nothing
but what I can eat and digest perfect
ly now and my stomach simply feels
like a new one. l sleep like a log ev-
cry night and it is nothing less than
wonderful the way my strength and
energy have come back to me. Be
fore taking Tanlac 1 was bilious all the
time, had bad complexion, but now I
have a good, healthy color and my rea-
tives here are all as much delighted
over my recovery as l am. My onl,
regret is that I did not take Tanlac
long ago when I first read about it in
my home papers. but from now on
when I need medicine l will know
what to take"
