"It was six months ago that Tan

attack OF rheumatism" he contin-
ued, "and It kept pulling me down
until durding the past year wasn't

time. My whole left side became af-
fected and It panied mo so could
hardly touch It. My leg was drawn

and was often unable to lie down
and would have to sit in a chair all
night long. My appetite went down
TO nearly nothing and I fell off in
weight.
II had no idea Tanlac could do
me much good after all the many
treatments and medicines I had
tried had failed. but II proved to be
a winner. In a short time the pains
commenced to let up and ! could
straighten out my leg without It's
hurting me. And In little more
than a month I could not feel a
trace Of the rheumatism and had
actually gained Is pounds in weight.
This was six months ago and I have
not been troubled In any way what
ever since. I am in the very pink
OF condition, eating fine. sleeping

Tanlac has meant health to me and

guard against kidney trouble.
The kidneys do their utmost to
free the blood OF this irritating acid,

work; they get sluggish; the elimi-
native tissues clog and thus the
waste is retained in the blood to
poison the entire system.
when your kidneys ache and
feel like Jumps of lead. and you
have singing pains in the back or
the urine is cloudy, full OF sedf-
ment, or the bladder is irritable,
sbligips you to seek relief during
the night; when you have severe
headaches. nervous and dizzy spells.
sleeplessness, acid stomach or rheu-
matism in bad weather, get from
your pharmacist about four ounces
OF Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful
in a glass Of water before break
fast each morning and in a few days
your kidneys will act fine. This IA
