up in bed. By morning she would be
so weak and worn out that she would
be hardly able to get up at all IN

her homework. and I was afraid she
would never get we'll
I read in the papers about friend
OF mine who had been relieved by
taking Tanlac. so I got the m adicine
for my daughter and now she is like

in bed weak and miserable, she IS the
first one up in the mornings and is
now wen and strong enough to take
up her homework again. She never
complains of suffering like she did
before. and from the way Tanlac has
built her M I have so much faith in
it that I never expect to be without
it in the house"
