Well Known 0ptometrist Says
He Hasn't Enjoyed Such
Splendid Health in Years

Not in years have 1 enjoyed such
good health or felt so well generally
as 1 do since taking Tanlac,' said B.
A. Keller. well known optometrist,
of 255 South Orange avenue, New
ark, in an interview, a few days ago.
For ten or twelve years past l
have had trouble with my stomach.
From once to twice a week l would
have an attack of acute indigestion
that kept me miserable for two or
three days. My nerves became so
upset that I could not get sufficient
sleep. My appetite was very poor,
too, and there were many things l
did not dare eat because of the dis
tress l knew so well would follow.
"Tanlac was so well suited to my
case that / felt better from the very
day l began taking it and three bot
ties has done me more good than
everything else l have taken COM
bined. / can now eat anything l
want without fear of it hurting me
as / have not had an attack of indi-
gestion since / began taking Tanlac
I am able to sleep soundly now, for
my nerves are normal, and l get up
mornings feeling thoroughly rested
and refreshed. l am glad to en-
dorse Tanlac for what it has done in
my case"
