FOLKS SHOULD
TAKE BITR0-
PHOSPHATE
Women Need 1t to Bring Pink Glow
of Health to Pale Checks and Fore
stall Tell-Taie Lines OF Age.
Men Need 1t to Make strong,
Vigorous Bodies and
Steady Nerves.

Weak, thin people-men or women
are nearly always nervous wrecks;
thus conclusively proving that thin
ness, weakness. debility and neurasthe-
MIA are almost invariably due to nerve
starvation. Feed your nerves and all
these symptoms due to nerve starva-
ton will disappear.
Eminent specialists state that one OF
the best things for the nerves Is an or
ganic phosphate known among drug
gists as Bitro-P Phosphate. a five-grain
tablet Of which should be taken with
each meal. Being genuine nerve
builder and not a stimulant or habit
forming drug. Bitro-Phosphate can be
safely taken by the weakest and most
delicate sufferer, and the results fol-
lowing it's use are often simply aston

BY strengthening the nerves. weak.
tired people regain energy and vigor;
thnness and angularity give way to
plumpness and curves; sleep returns to

cheeks regain the pink glow OF health.
CAUTION-Bitro-P Phosphate. the use
of which is inexpensive, also wonder

INSPECTOR OUT

During the past six months l have
been a pretty sick man, and at the
time I began taking Tanlac, about
four weeks ago, my condition was get
ting worse, but now I'm feeling just
as we'll as I ever did in my life"
The above statement was made by
Ollie R. Elrod, inspector for the Dia-
mond Chain & Mfg. Company, living
at 12S West Vermont street, 1ndianap-

Until my stomach got out OF or
der" he continued, II never knew
what physical ailments were. But it
just seemed as If all Of sudden my
digestive organs got to where they
would not work. Everything I ate
would sour on my stomach and bloat
me up with gas as tight as drum.
The worst kind Of pain would start
in the pit Of my stomach, then strike
me in my right side, then get into my
intestines and hurt me so bad that I
could hardly stand up straight My
food usually soured worst about two
hours after eating and some nights the
gas affected me so I had to get out of
bed. My heart would begin pumping,
and cause me to get SO weak and
dizzy I was afraid to move. I was
a pretty heavy coffee and milk drinker
and, thinking they might be the cause
of my stomach trouble, | gave them
up. l even cut down my eating, but
got no better. In fact, I got worse un-
til a drink of water would hurt my
stomach. I felt tired and WORKOUT
all the time and lost strength continu-
ally. My back got to bothering me
and I began having sharp pains in
the region of my kidneys. l was bad
something for this as we'll as for my
stomach, but got no results until
commenced taking Tanlac.
After reading a statement in the
paper from a farmer near Blooming
ton, Illinois, and another from man
at Terre Haute, Indiana, whose cases
were both similar to mine, concluded
to try Tanlac myself. Well, before
had taken half Of the first bottle l was
feeling better and when had finished
with it | was enthusiastic about Tan
lac. I have just finished my fourth
bottle now and 1t Is nothing short of
wonderful the way it has helped me.
1 can drink my coffee and milk, all
want, and eat just anything and never
feel sign Of indigestion. I am not
troubled any more with constipation
and headache and I sleep as sound
as a child at night. I can certainly
recommend Tanlac, for it has fixed me
up in fine shape and I believe it will
do the same thing for anyone else, es-
pecially if they suffer like I did"
