TAMAC SALES
ESTABLISH NEW
WORLD RECORD
Bottles Sold in Four Years
Would Make Track Reach
ing From New York to
.lenver, Colorado

Four wears ago very few people
had ever heard of TanIac-Today u
unuuestionably has the largest safe
of any medicine in the world anu IS
as well known in Canada as in this
country. In the brief period OF only
four years time this now famous
remedy has leaped from obscurlty to
the very pinnacle of success. It's
fame, in fact, has long since spread
beyond the limits of the continent,
and numerous inquiries reSarolns ~
are now being received from MANY
foreign countries. e,,,,,,
VERY few people, however, fully
realize what a really wonderful
record Tanlac has made. Indeed IL
it were not for the unqueStlonaDle
facts and figures given OUT oy rr,e
largest and. best known drug nrns
of the country the story of it's sue
cess would be hard to believe.
Up to January / the total sales
of Tanlac amounted to approximate
" twelve million bottles. me oe-
mand, however, is increasing LOT
during the first ten weeks OF THIS
wear over one million bottles were
sold and distributed in the united
States and Canada, the exact rgufeS
being 1.306,1S6 in three months.
At this rate. therefore, the sales
for the present year will amount 10
more than five million bottles. This
lac will be sold during every day Oh
the year, or 2.100 bottles for every
hour of the average working day.
These figures are too StupendouS
for the average mind to grasp, out
one may visualize what twelve MIL
lion bottles mean by imagining them
laid out in a single file end TO emu
Thus laid they would make a track
of Tanlac from New York, through
Chicago and on to Denver, Colo; or
they would form a double track OF
Tanlac from the Great Lakes to the
Gulf of Mexico. Piled end on end
they would tower 1875 times as high
as Pixies Peak, or rise 1888 times
higher than the WoolWorth building
in New York. the tallest building in
the world
The demand for Tanlac has become
so great that it's sale instead OF be-
ing measured by the gross as other
preparations have been, is now reck-
oned by the carload, and even by the
trainload. In proof of this 1t is a
noteworthy fact that the leading
drug jobbers everywhere now buy
Tanlac almost exclusively in carload
lots. To supply the Pacific coast
trade alone requires from forty to
fifty carloads per year-Job bers OF
the middle west are selling from |
seventy to eighty cars per year.
The well known drug firm of He's |
sig-Ellis Drug company. of Memphis. |
Tenn, has sold over forty carloads |
since the introduction of Tanlac in
that state four years ago.
Within the past ninety days, ten
carloads of Tanlac have gone to sup |
ply the demand of British Columbia, |
Saskatchewan. Alberta and Manito- !
ba. Canada.
The Owl Drug company, of San
Francisco. the largest retail drug |
gists on the Pacific coast. state that |
they have sold more than 10000 |
bottles at retail, which surpasses
the remarkable record of Jacobs
Pharmacy company, of Atlanta. who |
have sold approximately $4,000 bot
ties at retail.
Taniac is composed of the most |
beneficial roots and herbs known to |
science. The formula complies with |
all national and state pure food and
health laws of both the United States |
and Canada. and absolute merit and
merit alone is responsible for it's
phenomenal and unprecedented sue
cess.
