years was the emphatic statement
made recently by Joseph A York

across medicine that / consider in

medicine has benefited me even be-
yond my greatest hopes. Besides
gaining sixteen pounds IN weight, I
have been built up and strengthened
until feel all Of twenty years
younger.
For the past two years I have
been in miserably rundown condi-

ago to give up all idea of business,
as I was too weak to look after any
thing was nervous. worn out, had
no appetite. and suffered most all the
time with indigestion. Some days
would eat scarcely anything; in fact
] was afraid to; eat, because knew
/ would suffer afterward Sometimes
! had such severe cramping pains
after eating that I would almost die.
My nerves were all unstrung and the
least thing would worry me, and !
never could get a good nights sound
sleep In fact just lost interest in
everything and was greatly discour-
aged over my condition.
THE ordinary treatment failed to
do me any good. and as had read so
many statements from people know
here in Portland who had been bene-
fitted by .Tanlas, I decided to give 1t
a trial. And now l know for myself
what it will do, for ] have simply
taken a new lease on life. am now
able to look after my work as usual,
and never felt better in my life. l am
able to eat three hearty meals a day
and everything agrees with me per-
rectly. I eat everything / want and
never feel touch Of indigestion.
never thought there was a medicine
hat could do me SO much good, sDN
/ am only too glad to have the facts
about my case given to the public.
