ALL ABOUT TANLAC.
Authorities Now Show lust
What This Medicine
Really Is.

In a recent issue or this paper IN
nouncement was made thai Tanlac now
has the largest sale of any medicine
or its kind in the world, and that more
than twelve million bottles had been
sold during the past four years,
These are. unusual figures, and h
question naturally arises In the mind
OF the reader why this phenomenal sue
cess and why has this preparation SO
Tar outstripped all other medicines of
Its kind. 1t is only natural therefore
that the manufacturers should offer
terest.
In the first place, Tanlac is manu-
Iactured In one Of the largest and most
modernly equipped laboratories in this
country. Its formula is purely ethical
and complies with all national and state
pure food and drug laws. Altogether
there are ten ingredients in Taniac
each OF which Is Of recognized thera-
peutic value.
Many Of these ingredients have been
Individually known and used since civil
IlAation first began, and some Of them
nave been used and prescribed by lead
ing physicians everywhere, but until
they were brought together in proper
proportion n association as in the
Tanlac formula, humanity had not
heretofore realized their fall value and
effect.
In referring to one of the more i'm
portant ingredients Of TanIac, the En-
eyclopedta Britannica says: 1T has long
heen the source of the most valuable
tonic medicines that have ever been
uncovered" In referring to others of
the general tonic drugs contained in
Tanlae the 18th Edition OF Potter's
therapeutics, a standard medical text
book, states that-"they impart general
NM ond - - L -AsA AVA-
tenn, including all organs and tissues"
This same well-known authority in
describing the physiological action of
stu another Of the ingredients of Tan
lac which Is of value in treating what
Is commonly known as "a rundown
condition uses the following express
sion: 1T is highly esteemed in loss of
appetite during convalescence from
acute diseases"
There are certain other elements in
Tanlac which because Of their influ-
ence upon the appetite, digestion, as
sanitation and elimination improve the
nutrition and vital activity OF all the
tissues and organs OF the body, and
produce that state Of general tonicity
which is called health.
In discussing another ingredient the
encyclopedia Britannica says: 1T is one
of the most efficient of that class Of
substances which act upon the stom-
ach SO as to invigorate digestion and
thereby Increase the general nutrition,
1t Is used In dyspepsia, chlorosis,
hnemia n various other diseases in
which the tone OF the stomach and ali
mentary canal is deficient" Concern
Ing still another ingredient this same
standard authority says: 1T causes di-
latioh OF the gastric blood vessels, in
creases secretion Of the gastric Juice,
and auses greater activity in the
movements Of the muscular layers in
the walls OF the stomach. It also tends
to lessen the sensibility Of the stom-
ach, and SO may relieve gastric pain"
The United States Dispensatory makes
the following comment regarding an
other ingredient: ut may be used in
all cases Of pure debility Of the diges-
tive> organs or where a general tonic
Impression Is Required. Dyspepsia,
atomic govt hysteria. and intermittent
fever are among the many affections
In which 1t has proven useful"
There are certain other ingredients
described in the Dispensatory and in
other standard medical textbooks as
having q beneficial action upon the or
gans OF secretion, whose proper fune-
tioning results In the publication of
the blood streams passing through them.
In this manner Objectionable and pois-
onous ingredients OF the blood are re-
moved, ana the enClre system IL III
vigorated and yitalized.
Tanlac was designed primarily for the
correction of disorders of the stomach,
liver and bowels. At the same time,
however. it is a powerful reconstric-
tive tonic and body builder, for 1t nat
urally follows that any medicine that
brings about proper assimilation Of the
food and the thorough elimination OF
the waste products must therefore have
a far-reaching and most beneficial ef-
feet upon the entire system.
Although Tanlac's claims for suprern-
acy are abundantly supported by the
worlds leading authorities, 1t Is the
people themselves who have really made
Tanlac what 1t is. Millions upon mil
lions have used it, and have told other
millions what II has done for them.
That is why Tanlac has become the
real sensation OF the drug trade in this
country, and that is also why 1t Ia the
most widely talked-of medicine in the
world today.
Tanlac is sold in Memphis by War.
