Used by Physicians for
Thirty Years

There are new styles" even in
medicines. A new "fadr comes, is

has helped many thousands of people
back to good health by improving the
blood. Pepto-Mangan is an iron tonic.
1t contains iron in special form easily
absorbed by the system. 1t puts color
into the lips and cheeks and improves
the entire body by improving and en-
riching the blood. 1t is sold by drug
gists In both liquid and tablet form.

Representative of New York Is the
case of Chas. Il. Van Colts family, re-
siding at 100 Fourth Ave-, Albany. He
says: Every member Of our family Is
enthusiastic over Tanlac. It's certainly
a medicine for all the family"
From far-away Canada comes this
message: MY little girl, my son and
myself are all enjoying splendid
health now and Tanlac brought 1t oil
about" Mrs. Bert Hewer, 1893 East
Avenue. Toronto, Ontario.
1--WE call Tanlac The Family Medt
cine here in our Virginia home, be-
cause 1t restored my mother and sister
to perfect health, just the same as 1t
has done me-" Is the enthusiastic
statement Of Mrs. j. #. Robertson,
Danville, Va.
And on through the list, men, women
and children from every state In tho
Union and every province of Canada
unhesitatlngly come forward and tell
In words ringing with sincerity Of the
wonderful benefits of health and hap
piness that Tanlac has brought into
their homes that were formerly dark
ened by the gloom Of sickness, suffer-
ing and despair.
And should yours be one OF those
homes where any member Of the fam
lily is thin, run down and weakened
from loss of appetite, caused by midi
gestion and stomach troubles, you have
at your very door the means that will
no doubt bring the sunshine Of vigor-
Gus health back into their lives and
yours, just as 1t has done in so many
thousands OF other cases. DO not de-
lay. Get bottle of Tanlac from your

If iOu Need a Medicine
You Should Fave the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
t IS that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
Of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfill
the promises Of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
a medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, o
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re.
suits, as many of my customers testify
No other kidney remedy has so large q
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR.
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact
SO many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle Of
Swamp Root by Parcels Post. Address

.I've put Tanlac to the test four
hasn't failed me once" declared Mr..
Gingras. MY wife, my son and my
daughter, as well as myself, have all
been built up from half-sick, run
down, worn-out set of people into a
healthy, happy family brimful of new
life and energy"
And the experience Of this family Is
only typical Of thousands of others
whose statements are Non file in the
Tanlac offices. Hardly a day passes
that does not bring scores of such mes
sages of praise from every part of the
United States and Canada from fami-
lies where mother. father, son and
daughter have all found health, con-
tentment and the joys Of living
through simply taking course OF
Tanlac.
Take, for instance. the case Of John
Widner, 1871 Roosevelt Ave-, Los An
geles, Calf, who says: my wife, my
self and little boy are now as healthy,
happy family as you will ever see
and it's all due to Tanlac."
Or that Of Mrs. John Marquis and
her family of sixteen living in Man
chester, N. H., at 292 Belmont St
She says: "Tanlac has been the only
medicine used in our house for two
years and 1t has kept every one of the
sixteen here in the best of health"
In Chicago, Frank II. Richards, OF
AL South Wood St, writes: "We will
never be without Tanlac in our house
after the remarkable way 1t has built
up my wife, my son and myself to
where we are the very picture OF
health"

HAIR NETS AND ARMENIANS
Interesting Comparison Between Cost

of the Latter.

The hair net milady wears would
clothe several orphan children In Ar

Is, the cost Of them would. Even Ar.
menian orphans are sometimes more
modest than milady.
Experts have figured that $1.S0 will

relief orphanages Of the Transcauca-

experts also figure that milady's bill
for hair nets during like period would
be in considerable excess of that
amount. depending upon-well, upon
several things. Hair nets are of un-
certain durability under any circum.
stances. And milady is not always
over cautious. Even an expert hest
tates to hazard some guesses.
