Than Anything Else,
Wylnan Says. OF
Tanlac
Feels Young and Active Asain-Eats
Heartily and Sleeps soundly First
Time In Months

Il feel like getting out there in the
street and outrunning any man in
town." said Earle Wyman, Of Winn,
Maine. while in Babcock's Drug store
in Lewiston, Me-, recently. Mr.. Wy.
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 I had indigestion Of the
worst kind and I frequently had
sharp. aching pains. I also had q
drowsy feeling and my head did not
seem clear when woke up In the
morning.
1T looked like everybody in town
was talking Tanlac and, as heard
so many people talking about 1t, I de-
cided to give it a trial. bought a
bottle and it did just what you said it
would do. 1t helped me right from
the start, and feel better than
have felt for years. Ny appetite is
good and I now can eat anything
wish without dreading any bad after
effects. My head seems clear and
no longer have that drowsy feeling,
because am no longer bilious and
constipated like used to be. When
go to bed at night I can sleep like
log all night long. feel fine, and
feel as young and active as when I
was a boy. You are at liberty to
publish my statement, as think ev-
cry man, woman and child should
know about this medicine"
Commenting on the foregoing
statement, the Tanlac representative
said:
People who suffer from indiges-
ton. as a 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-
TEN fills up with poison and you suf-
fer various ills.
"Tanlac being purely vegetable,
acts in a safe and wholesome manner
as a result Of the natural medicinal
action of the herbs and roots Of
which it is composed. Tanlac is not
a purgative like many other medi-
cines, but is a powerful reconstruc-
tive tonic which builds up the system
and tones up the vital organs so as
to enable them to perform their
proper functions as nature intended.
and relieves and overcomes bilious
ness and habitual constipation in
this way ..
Tanlac Is sold in Augusta by Bow
ditch Webster Co., and the lead
