Chattanooga Man States Tan lac Overcome His Troubles.
 Can't Say Too Much for It

w. F. Dennis, 203 Lyerly street, Chattanooga, Tenn. formerly of Mo bile. Ala, makes an interesting state ment regarding Tanlac.
 Tt certainly was lucky for me-" said MT. Dennis, that I got hold of Tanlac when did, for I was just about down and out. Off and on for three years have been down with malaria. For 10 months on one occa- sion I was confined to the house most of the time.
 AS I usually spent my winters in Chattanooga. I came back here last September to spend the rest of my life with my daughter. When I arrived here, I was in very weakened con dition, for the malaria was fast get ting the best of me. I had no appetite, felt weak and tired all the time and had pains in my stomach that were completely upsetting my nerves. I slept very little and got up mornings nearly exhausted. In fact I was just about all in and kept getting worse.
 Five weeks ago I got Tanlac and my appetite picked up with my first half bottle. Soon I was able to sleep all night and felt like new man. eat any kind of food set before me and enjoy it. I have gained several pounds in weight and feel better than have in five or six years. Tanlac has saved me money and given inc health 100, and can't say too much for it."
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu- sively by Eugene Jacobs Drug store and Patton-Pope Drug Co, in Ensley by Ezell Drug Co.,, in Bessemer by Pegram Patton Drug Co.,, and in Avon dale by Robert w. Murray.--Adv.
