For fifteen years." says Charles

more, Md, 81 suffered from stomach
and intestinal troubles. During this
time, 1 underwent two operations, and
counting the time lost from work, if
1 had all the money I've spent trying
to get well, would never have to
work another day.
my appetite was about gone, and
the little I did eat caused me terrible
suffering from gas, bloating, head
aches and nausea. At times this gas
was so bad that was dreadfully short
of breath-and if there's any one thing
that a glass blower does need, it is
plenty of breath. often had severe
pains in my back, and was so nervous
that restful sleep was impossible.
actually lost thirty-one pounds and
was just shadow of my former self.
MY sister-in-law had such impli-
cit faith in Tanlac she got me to try
it. Two bottles of the medicine have
corrected my intestinal trOuble-it is
the only medicine I ever took that
didn't aggravate this condition-and I
now have fine appetite and digestion
my nerves are steadier, sleep
soundly, seldom feel a pain, and I am
considerably stronger. I'm going to
keep on taking Tanlac for it is fast
a new man of me-"
Tanlac is sold by all good druggists.
