Il have been trying for twenty
long years to find a medicine that
would overcome my troubles, but my
efforts failed me completely until l
commenced taking Tanlac." was the
remarkable statement made recently
by Mrs. Alice McCluskey, residing at
No. &C Park street, Lewiston, Me-.
well known and most highly respected
woman of that city.
II Just feel like I would give the
world to meet everyone who suffers
as did and tell them about this
medicine. If / could only have got
ten Tanlac twenty years ago it would
have saved me lot of suffering and
money.
MY principal trouble was indiges-
ton, and for many years I could not
eat meat or pastries for l would al
ways suffer afterward. l would most
always have a distressed feeling after
eating and nothing seemed to agree
with me. Then to add to the rest of
nv suffering | contracted rheumatism
in my shoulders and hips and the
awful pains | suffered can never be
told in words. This trouble finally
got so bad | could hardly walk and
my arms panied me so l could scarce
ly raise my hands to my head. 1
even had to give up my house ork
and was hardly able to get around
at all.
you can imagine how happy l was
when, after taking only few bottles
of Tanlac, | found such a wonderful
improvement in my condition! Why,
it was Just the medicine l needed all
the time, and / continued taking it
until now l am perfectly well again.
I can truthfully say that / am enjoy
ing as good health now as l ever had
in all my life. / have gained about
IA pounds in weight and can again
do all my homework without the least
trouble. l don't get tired like | did
and after doing my work l can get
out and walk for blocks and feel Just
fine when l get back home. l earnest
