Dear Sir:
AS you expressed a desire 10 hear
more about my case. I will try and tell
you part Of II. l WAS down and out
nearly all the time for two years with
rheumatism and stomach trouble, ana
went TO eight doctors, two OF whom
were osteopaths, Three OF them re
fused to take my case, saying II was
incurable, and the others might as
well have done so as they did me no
good. ! guess l have taken n barrel
OF medicines, internally and externally.
I also went 10 Hot Springs, and out
of all that was ever done, I never got
over one weeks relief az a time.
After going down 10 one hundred
and sixteen pounds-which Is very
high. for q six-tooter-I kept getting
worse until ] couldn't move, even 10
feed myself. had no desire TO eat and
couldn't sleep more than two hours a.
night. Some Of the officials 81 the
mine. Of which l am foreman, would
call to see me, and then 80 out and
say, Poor old Scott has fired his last
man" Ny wife thought l would new
er get out OF bed alive, and she knew
my condition better than anybody else.
At last, when I lay helpless my wife
ordered a bottle OF Tanlac from the
druggist at FL PasQ. Tex, which was
the nearest place we could get IL at
that time. One evening about four
days after l began taking Tanlac. l
ate a fair meal and enjoyed Il. the
first In many months. By the time
had taken half Of the first bottle l
thought 1 had a good appetite, but
when I finished my second bottle
could hardly eat enough 10 satisfy me.
Well, I have finished my ninth bottle.
have gained eighteen pounds and am
back on the job every day.
Mrs. Scott and myself are willing 10
60 before a notary public and make
affidavit as to the truth OF every
statement IN this letter which you are
at liberty to publish, which you are
benefi, OF others.
Yours very truly.
