TAMLAC DID MORE
GOOD THAN ALL ELSE
Feels Young and Active Again-Eats
Heartily and Sleeps SOundly First
Time In Months

IL feel like getting out there in tho
street and out-running any man in
town" said Earle Wyman, of VIM
Maine, while in Babcock's Drug store
in Lewiston, Me, recently. Mr.. Wv
man Is assistant to the head clerk Of
the American Realty Co., q lumber
firm which operates all over Maine
and New Hampshire. Continuing.
he said:
II have been badly out of shape all
this year. My stomach was all out
of order and l had indigestion of the
worst kind. And. I frequently had
sharp, aching pains l also had
drowsy feeling and my head did not
seem clear when l woke up in the
morning.
ut looked like everybody in town
Was talking Tanlac and, as / heard
so many people talking about it. I
decided to give 1t a trial. l bought
a bottle and 1t did just what you said
1t would do 1t helped me right
from the start, and l feel better than
have felt for years. My appetite is
good and l now can eat anything I
wish without dreading any bad after
effects. My head seems clear and I
no longer have that drowsy feeling.
because l am no longer bilious and
constipated like l used to be- When
| go to bed at night l can sleep like
log all night long. l feel fine, and
feel as young and active as when l
was a boy. You are at liberty to
publish my statement. as think
every man, woman and child should
know about this medicine"
Commenting on the foregoing state
ment, the Tanlac representative said:
people who suffer from indiges-
ton. as general rule also suffer
from constipation and biliousness.
The stomach, liver. kidneys and bow
els are the most important organs of
the body. If you keep them in order,
you will probably remain we'll. When
they get out of order your entire sys-
tenn fills up with poison and you suf-
fer various Ills.
"Tanlac being purely vegetable.
acts in a safe and wholesome man.
ner as a result of the natural medi-
cinal action of the herbs and roots of
which it is composed. Tanlac is not
a purgative like many other medicine,
but is a powerful reconstructive tonic
which builds up the system and tones
up the vital organs so as to enable
them to perform their proper func-
tons as nature intended, and relives
and overcomes biliousness and habi-
tual constipation in this way"
