81 am so thankful for what Tanlac

the earnest statement made by q. z,
Ross. 1901 Winter street, Pekin, Ill.
Mr.. Ross Is manager or the Windsor
Hotel. one of the leading hotels OF
Pekin. and is one OF the most widely
known men in this section OF the
country.
IL had been sick 50 long and suf-
fered SO much that ii seems almost
too good to be true that Tanlac has
SO thoroughly believed me of my
troubles. Twelve years ago l began
to have rheumatism and from that
time on until l began taking Tanlac
there was never a minute OF my life
I was not in more or less pain. 1t
was in every joint of my body, but
gave me more trouble in my arms
and legs than anywhere else and as
the years went by 1 kept getting
worse until for the last two years
have been almost entirely helpless.
Why. / couldn't even lift a knife
and fork while eating without its
causing me such pain | could hardly
stand it, and | couldn't walk at all
without help. My kidneys also both
cred me a great deal. and there were
such severe pains across the small
of my back that at times when l
moved would almost cry out loud.
I was in such misery all the time /
could get but little sleep and in the
mornings 1 was so stiff and my mus
cles were so sore l could hardly get
out of bed. 1t was all I could do to
nut on my clothes and lace my shoes,
and when I got thru dressing my
hack would ache and pain me for
hours. I finally got so bad off it was
impossible for me to attend to my
duties around the hotel and I just
had to give up entirely.
Il had tried SO many different
treatments and medicines without
getting any relief that altho I had
seen where Tanlac was helping 9TH
ers vino described their condition as
being similar to min-, I doubted
whether Tanlac or anything else
could do me much good. However,
had taken it only a short while before
my Improvement was so great all my
doubts were soon gone. AS I kept
taking it. kept getting better, until
now the rheumatism has left me en-
tirely, and l never have an ache OF
pain of any kind. My friends who
knew what a bad fix l was in and
who now see me walking briskly
down to my hotel every morning as
spry as ever did in my life, stop me
and ask if I have been away TO some
springs, or what in the world has
brought about such a change in me
and l am always delighted to tel
them it was Tanlac. To tell the
truth, what Tan1ac has done for nj
seems almost beyond belief. for
haven't felt as well as 1 do now II
twenty years, and it will be a pleas
ure to me as long as live to tel
others about Tanlac."
Tanlac is sold in Marshalltown by
