MY troubles began with an opera
ton for appendicitis and later I had
an accident that gave me a lot of
trouble and altogether was in a
mighty bad fix. My appetite was very
poor, and 1 was bothered a great deal
with my kidneys. 1 suffered from
constipation all the time, and 1 had
dizzy spells when I could hardly stand
up, and all the time I had dull pain
across the small of my back
We'll, I had become SO badly run
down and weak that life was almost
that niece of mine who had
been given up to die had gotten well
by taking Tanlac, SO 1 got a bottle for
myself My appetite picked up with
the first bottle, so I got another and
then another, and kept on taking it
until now 1 don't feel like the same
person. My appetite was never better,
and nothing hurts my stomach in the
least. 1 am not troubled with con-
stipation any more, never have dizzy
spells I sleep like a log nights, and,
I believe anyone suffering like I did
can get relief if they will only take
Tanlac.'

But the old-fashioned mustard

mustard plasters gave, without the

Musterole does it. Il is clean,

that it works wonders, and yet does
not blister the tenderest skin.
Gently massage Musterole in with the

Use Musterole for sore throat, bron-
