new PLANT FOR
The TANLAC co.
IS COMPLETED
Magnificent New Laboratory
Has Daily Capacity Of &c.
900 Bottles.

What is said to be one of the larg-
est pharmaceutical laboratories in
the United States has been completed
at Dayton, Ohio, for the manufacture
of Tanlac, the well-known medicine,
which according to recent reports is
now having the largest sale of any
medicine of its kind in the world
The erection of the new plant was
made necessary by the rapid growth
of the business, as the older plant
was found to be wholly inadequate to
supply the ever-increasing demand
which at the present rate of sale viii
amount to more than five million bot
ties for the present year alone.
By the erection of this plant the
manufacturers of Tanlac are giving to
the world just one more evidence of
the remarkable growth and expansion
of their business, and of their ALSO
lutte confidence in its future.
This announcement will be read
with interest not only by the many
thousands Of Tanlac agents scattered
throughout every state of the Union
and throughout Canada, but to the
millions who have used it beneficially
as well.
The new building occupies $4,000
square feet Of floor space. 1t is six
stories in height, practically fire-proof
throughout, and is of striking archi-
tectural design. 1t also has private
railway facilities.
This beautiful new structure now
stands in striking contrast beside the
older building where Tanlac was first
made.
Visitors to the laboratories are
OILS inn n
ly modern character of the equipment.
Everything is provided and splendidly
arranged to promote systematic and
rapid production. The very latest ma
chinery and devices known to inven-
ton and pharmaceutical science are
here used.
The interior throughout is finished
in spotless white, and all Of the large
force of employees wear white uni
forms. which they are required to
change daily. The main offices on
the first floor are all finished in Car
ara marble and mahogany
The entire process OF manufacture
is conducted under absolutely sanitary
conditions. Even the bottles made
expressly to contain Tanlac are wash
ed and sterilized electrically by the
ultra violet ray process. They are
then filled by automatic machinery
and the finished product is therefore
never touched by human hands.
When Tanlac was introduced into
Canada history repeated itself, and
the demand which had been created
in the United States was quickly du-
plicated in the Dominion Provinces.
AS result, it was recently found
necessary to establish another Tanlac
Laboratory at Windsor, Canada which
is on somewhat smaller scale than
the plant at Dayton, but is no less
modernly equipped
These new facilities give a daily ca
pacity Of $4,000 bottles, but as Tanlac
is rapidly being introduced into fore
ign countries it is probably only a
question of few years before even
large facilities will become necessary
While the manufacturers are neces-
sa 1ly working for capacity produc-
ton. it is fundamental rule of the
Tanlac Laboratories that the quality
OF the medicine shall never be sacri-
feed to secure quantity output
Uniform quality is guaranteed by
series Of careful inspections by ex-
pert chemists, from the time the roots,
herbs, and barks are received In their
rough state from all parts of the globe
until their medicinal properties have
been extracted by the most approved
processes. The finished medicine is
then bottled, labelled, and shipped out
to the tens Of thousands of druggists
throughout the United States and
Canada, to supply demand never be-
fore equalled for this or any other
medicine
The executive sales offices are To-
Gated in Atlanta, Georgia. and occupy
almost an entire floor of the Fourth
Naional Bank Building of that city.
Tanlac is sold in Richmond by Glenn
Thistlethwaite's stores and the lead
ing druggist in every town.-Adv.
