MANY PEOPLE REPORT
BIG GAINS IN WEIGHT
THOUSANDS OF THIN, FRAIL
PEOPLE RESTORED TO
HEALTH BY TANLAC
MANY REMARKABLE
EXPERIENCES TOLD
People in all Ranks of Life Tell
What Celebrated Medicine Has
Done for Them

one of the most noteworthy fea-
lures in connection with Tanlac
and the one that stands out more
prominently than any other perhaps,
is the very large number of well-known
men and women from all parts OF the
South who have recently reported as
tonishingly and rapid increases in
weight as a result of its use
When so many well known people
OF unquestioned integrity make state
ment after statement, each corrobor-
ating the other, the truth of such
statements can no longer be doubted.
Thousands have testified that this
famous medicine has completely re-
stored them to health and strength,
after every other medicine and the
most skilled medical treatment have
failed.
One of the most remarkable cases
on record is that of Mrs. Viola Ives,
of 3l5 Cross street, Little Rock, Ark,
whose statement appears below.
an May of 1918" said Mrs. Ives,
q suffered a complete breakdown of
my nerves and my entire system gave
way. About six weeks afterwards |
was carried to the hospital. l became
perfectly helpless couldn't move any
part of my body and just lay there in
bed for five months, not knowing any
thing or anybody l was brought home
in October 1913, and tried all kinds Of
medicine and everything l was told
about
a read about so many people get
ting relief by taking Tanlac and my
husband got me a bottle. After tax
ing three bottles I began to feel bet
ter. l have taken several bottles OF
Tanlac now and I can walk anywhere
and sleep like a child. When l took
my first dose of Tanlac l weighed
only one hundred and twenty-five
pounds. | now weigh one hundred and
sixty-two-an actual gain OF forty
pounds since l started on 1anlac."

Texas Man Testifes

Another remarkable case was that
of John NJ. Crabtree, a general mer-
chant of Five Mile Station A, Dallas
Texas:
q have actually gained thirty-four
pounds on three bottles of Tanlac
and I know what it is to enjoy good
health after suffering for twenty
years, said Mr. Crabtree
q suffered with catarrh of the stom-
ach and indigestion for twenty years
and for eighteen months, before l
started taking Tanlac, had to live
almost entirely on cereals l spent
nearly all of one whole year in bed
and was unable to do anything at
all and fell off in weight to IFS
pounds.
"After using my third bottle of Tan
lac l found l had increased in weight
from us to l52 pounds, making an
actual gain of thirty-four pounds
all my troubles were gone, and l was
feeling like another man"
Captain Jeff d. Riggs, popular Y.
& NJ. v engineer, running between
Vicksburg and New Orleans and re-
siding at 2O2O Pearl Street, Vicks-
burg, in speaking of his experience
with Tanlac said: "Yes,sir,it's an act
tual fact, l gained twenty-five pounds
on Tanlac"
"When I began taking the medi-
cine" continued Captain Riggs, q
was simply a nervous and physical
wreck and had dropped down in weight
from one hundred and forty to one
hundred and ten pounds.
q have just finished my second bot
tie of Tanlac, have gained twenty
five pounds and feel like a new man.

Average Earnings
Of Miners ShOWH
In Central Field

WASHINGTON. Feb. stables show
ing the gross earnings OF all classes OF
bituminous mine workers in the cen
trial competitive field during the ten
months Immediately preceding the walk
out on Nov. /. compiled from pay roll
records have been presented in eNi-
dence before the coal strike settlement
commission by the operators.
Numerous figures showing the aver
age earnings for groups Of men working
the same number Of days in the Pitts
burgh thick and thin vein fields in the
ten months period as representatives
of the entire central field, were read
into the record by Ralph Crews, attor-
ney for the operator.
Taken at random, the figures showed
that in October. the month preceding
the strike, the average earnings of "A
pick miners working q days were
S2l3,2T. In the thin vein field 20 men
working q days in the same month re-
ceived for that time averaged earnings
of $209.S4.
Machine miners in the same field
turned in more days work, the table
showed, and they also received slightly
higher proportionate earnings. In
stances were noted where machine run
ners in selected places earned $l2 TO
SIS a day in selected months.
John l.. Lewis, acting president OF
the mine workers, in a statement said:
The operators neglected TO tell the
commission that the machine runners
were the most highly skilled and best
paid class of labor in the coal mines.
Nor did the operators tell the COM
mission that machine runners worked 10,
IL or 16 hours a day These figures
mean nothing when compared with the
fact that in the six-year period from
1918 to 1918 inclusive the average annual
earnings of all of the mine workers in
the central competitive fields were
SS73.S5. The only fair way to ascertain
mans earnings is to take his carr
ings for a year, not for a day or a
