THE HOME OF THE SOUL.

In Olden times, it was believed that
the seat of the soul was the stomach
most likely for the reason that man is
never so completely used up as when his
stomach is out of order. For the cure of
ordinary stomach troubles, there is moth
ing quite so prompt and satisfactory as
Chamberlain Tablets. They strengthen
the stomach and enable it to perform its
functions naturally. Give them trial.
They only cost a quarter.

HARDLY EVER ATE
A MEAL in PEACE
Russell Says He Had Indigestion So Bad
He Thought He Would Never Be
Well.

'I simply feel like a brand new
man." asserted William H. Russell,
SAT North Calhoun street, Baltimore,
recently, in telling of the benefits he
has derived from the use of Tanlac.
my stomach had been in such a
bad fix for six years that I could
hardly eat meal in peace. I could
hardly eat enough to keep a working
man going and my health was just
about wrecked. I had terrible pains
across the small of my back, was sub
ject to binding headaches and dizzy
spells and my nerves bothered me day
and night. Sleep was almost out of
the question with me and I got up
mornings all tired out. I always felt
so played out when my days work
was done that I just came dragging
in home completely exhausted.
"The more medicine I took the
worse seem to get and I was right
on the verge Of giving up hope when
I determined to try Tanlac. This med
icine is certainly without an equal. 1t
has done me so much good that I am
no longer like the same man. My stO-
mach acts and feels like a new one
and can scarcely eat enough to sat
isfy my big appetite.
81 am eating my three square meals !
a day and thoroughly relish and en-
JOY every mouthful. I never have a |
headache, or dizzy spell or a pain |
in my back any more and I can work
with more ease than I could in a long
time. Tanlac has meant health and
strength to me and I am glad to go
IN record with all the rest who are
it."
Such statements as the foregoing
should appeal to the thousands who
AVE the same troubles. Most people
Who suffer from nervousness and diz-
iness, stomach and liver troubles,
.idney arrangements, headaches and
izziness and who are in a general :
un-down condition, simply need !
to tone up their system and l
D assist the vital organs in perform
lg their proper functions. Tanlac is (
powerful reconstructive tonic and l
ways produces most gratifying re- {

Tanlac is sold by all good druggists.
