MRS. c. {. THORN
GAINS 70 POUNDS
Portland Woman Was On
Verge of Complete Break
down When She Began
Taking Tanlac

The one feature that stands out more
prominently than any other, perhaps,
in connection with the introduction and
sale OF Tanlac in Portland is the very
large number of men and women who
have reported an astonishingly rapid
increase in weight as result of its
use.
Dust short time ago Mrs Mary f.
Mitchell of l02 Fresumpscot street re-
ported a gain of fifteen pounds. a
few days later John C. Bachelor, a
boilernlaker employed by Howard and
Horn, reported a gain of fourteen
ponds in just a few weeks time.
One of the latest To realize the re-
markable reconstructive powers of the
medicine is Mrs. Celia L. Thorn, of
1913 Oxford street, who says she has
made gain of twenty pounds in only
little more than month and ALSO
makes a statement that will be read
with interest throughout the state.
Mrs Thorn said:
