TANLAC NOW HAVING
LARGEST SALE ANY
MEDICINE IN WORLD
Bottles Sold In Four Years Would
Reach From New York to
Denver, Colo.

Four years ago very few people had
ever heard OF Tannc-Today It un.
! questionably has the largest sale of any
medicine IN the world. and IL as we'll
the brief period of only four years time
this now famous remedy has leaped
from obscurty to the very plnacle OF
success. Its fame In fact, has long
| since spread beyond the limits of the
continent, and numerous Inquiries re.
garding II are now being received from
many foreign countries.
Very few people. however, fully real.
i2e what really wonderful record Tan.
lac has made. Indeed. II IL were not for
the unquestionabc facts and figures
given out by the largest and best known
drug firms of the country the story of
its success would be hard to believe.
Up to January first the total sales
of Tanlac amounted TO approximately
twelve million bottles. The demand
however, is increasing. for during the
first ten weeks of this year over one
million bottles were sold and distributed
IN the United States and Canada, the
exact figure being l,30G.lSG in three
months
At this rate. therefore. the sales for
the present year win amount 10 more
than five million bottles. This will |.
mean that 1900 bottles of Tanlac will |
be sold during every day of the year. |
or 2,lO0 bottles for ever hour of the |
average working day.
These figures are too stupendous for /
the average mind to grasp, but one may
visualize what twelve million bottles .
mean by imagining them laid out in a
single file end to end. Thus laid they
would make "A track of Tanlac from New
York through Chicago, and on 10 Den.
Yer, Colorado; or they would form a
iouble track of Tanlac from the Great
Lakes TO the Gulf of Mexico. Piled
md on end they would tower 1876 times
IS high as Pixies Peak, or rise 1888
lines higher than the Woolworth Build.
ng in New York the tallest building
he world.
The demand for Tanlac has become !
20 great that its sale instead of being
measured by the gross as other prepara. {
ions have been is now reckoned by the I
ar load, and even by the train load.
