Zone day a friend persuaded my
wife to take Tanlac and the results
have been nothing less than wonder
full. Her troubles have not only en-
tirely disappeared, but she has actual
" gained twenty pounds in weight
and now seems to be in perfect health.
She has suffered for eight years with
headaches, nervousness and loss Of
appetite and was in badly rum
down condition. She could not eat
much, had pains all through her body
and limbs and was so weak at times
she could hardly stard on her feet.
She was losing weight and gradually
getting worse all the time in spite OF
all we could do.

my wife was getting, / began taking
