Although Huge Laboratories
Turn Ont $4,000 Bottles
Daily Thousands of Dealers
Cannot be Supplied.
40 CARLOADS SOLD
IN JANUARY ALONE
After Shipping 838 400 Bottles
of Celebrated Medicine in
One Month Factory is Still
3SO,OOO Behind Uith Orders.

Although the big Tanac labora tories
at Dayton, Ohio, and Walkerville, Can
| ada, have been running at top speed for
| months, it has been a physical impossi
bility to supply the phenomenal and
ever increasing demand for this cele.
brated medicine.
During the first ten weeks OF last
year One Million Three Hundred and
twenty seven thousand bottles of Tan
lac were sold breaking all Worlds rec
ord for the sale of proprietary medi-
cines up to that time. This record now
pales into insignificance. however as
orders received during January alone of
this year reached the astonishing total
of One Million Two Hundred and Tween
ty Thousand bottles, showing an in
crease of approximately one hundred
per cent. over the corresponding period
of 1919 .~.+.
To say that Tanlac now has the larg.
est sale of any medicine of its kind in
the world expresses it mildly. 1t does
not begin to tell the story-for no other
preparation has even approached the
marvellous record that is now being
made by Tanlac; and it is now conserpa-
lively estimated that the sales for the
present year alone will amount to from
seven to ten million bottles.
OF the orders received, during January
it was possible to ship only eight hun
dred and thirty-eight thousand bottles
and thousands of dealers scattered
throughout the United States and Can
ada have been unable to obtain the med.
icine for weeks. , : -
phenomenal and Bewildering'' is the
way one of the big drug jobbers OF the
country describes the marvellous de-
mand for Tanlac. ~.
1--WE know that the day of miracles
has passed, and we all know that there
are no unfathomable mysteries in the
drug business, but this Tanlac, PROPOSE
ton smacks of both" writes another
leading wholesale druggist, whose firm
has sold over "a car. loads, or an. aver
age of nearly one car load per month
since they began handling Tanlac asfewJ
years ago Thousands of similar, letteEs
and kilograms have been received, but
for lack of space they. can onlyebe- re
ferred to briefly. = -.
Most proprietary medicines ARE sold
by the dozen or by the gross few are
bought by the trade in quantities or
from ten to twenty gross; a, very few
are sold BY the car load, and then only
to the largest jobbers, covering extens-
i've territories. The fact therefore that
scores of jobbers in this country tand
Canada have.a. demand SUFFICIENT. 70.
Imperial Valley press., 1920-02-17
ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE
To SUPPLY ENORMOUS
DEMAND FOR TANLAC

justify them in ordering not one car
load, but from two to three car loads Of
Tanlac at time makes Tanlac's pre-
emnence in the field of medicine all
the more noteworthy. 1t is the biggest
thing of it's kind in the world and moth,
ing like it has ever happened in the
drug trade before.
Think of one retail firm selling one.
| third of a million bottles of any one
medicine right over the counter direct
to consumers in only two years time,
1t seems incredible, but such is the rec.
ord made by the Owl Drug Company,
through their retail stores on the Paci-
fic coast,
Think of one retail firm in a single
city of 100000 population, selling ap-
proximately eighty eight thousand bot
ties an aferage of over two bottles for
every family in only years' time Such
is the record of the Jacobs Pharamacy
Company, Of Atlanta. A
Think of one retail firm giving IA
single order for an entire car load
,twenty-three thousand and forty bot
ties and agreeing to pay cash for the
goods promptly on arrival Such an
order has been received from the Lewis
X. Liggett Company of Winnipeg, Can
ada. ...
Another big Canadian retail firm, &.
Tamblyn, Limited, Toronto Canada,
recently gave their order for one hun
dred gross amounting to 10,S00OO.
Orders from 3retaherssf sfor. fiQAn fifty to
seyenty-five gf1iSs are not uhcommon,
and practically all of the Tearing retail
firms buy Tanlac i'll from ten to twenty
five gross lots to supply their normal
dema nds.
When the magnificent new laborator
les at Dayton, Ohio, and Walkerville,
Canada, with combined floor space of
seventy thousand square feet and a.
combined capacity of thirty-siX thous-
and bottles were completed, 1t was
thought that the production would be
sufficient to supply the demand for
years to come. 1t is now apparent,
however, that addition facilities must
be provided if the supply is keep pace
with the demand And this is true in
spite of the fact that there are now on
the market from fifty ta one hundred
claiming similar theapeu-
tic value.
Tanlac has now been on the market
for five years. 1t has stood the acid test
of time. 1t is known and honored in
every city, town, village, and hamlet
on the American Continent from Key
West, Florida, to the Northern wilds Of
Canada, where even the Indians and
Fur Traders have learned of it's wonG
rous powers as medicine.
It's enormous and ever-increaslns
is. the one great outstanding
proof of it's wonderful merit No medi-

tised,' could sell and continue TO sell ana

Tanlac is composed of the most ben

scientific world The formula conforms

and Health. laws of both the United
States and Canada, and although Tan.
lac's claims for superiority are abund-
antly supported by leading authorities,
it is the people themselves who have
made Tanlac what it is Millions upon
millions have used it and have told
other millions what it has done for
them.
That is why Tanlac has become the
real sensation of the drug trade all
over America.
