Wilmington MAN
GAINED 2OLBS.
He Took , on Weight and
Strength so Fast He Was
Astonished, States ]. A.
Opal.

yes. sir. I know Tanlac OF old,
for that is the medicine that restored
my health and built me up twenty
pounds in weight two years ago.
while I lived in Pennsylvania, and
/ don't hesitate 10 recommend It TO
anyone who is not feeling right" is
the statement OF Joseph A. Opal. OF
923 Shallcross avenue. Wilmington,
Del.
Il had suffered for four or five
years from the effects OF an opera
ton that left me in an awful rum
down condition. My appetite went
back on me and my stomach was so
weak at times that even the sight OF
food made me sick. Ny nerves were
so upset that 1 could hardly sleep
and many a night / had TO get out OF
bed and walk the floor.
Il often had binding headaches
and dizzy spells that just about put
me out OF commission. Ny legs and
knees were so stiff and painful that
walking was difficult and my arms
and shoulders were in such a fix that
IL was torture to move them. When
1 stopped over a pain would strike
me in the back like a knife. and
often got so short Of breath that the
least effort would almost completely
exhaust. me.
1T was astonishing how rapidly I
got back on my feet after 1 be-
gan taking Tanlac. The first thing
IL did was TO give me an appetite
and fix up my stomach so 1 could
eat. Then my troubles disappeared
as IL by magic and / commenced TO
take on weight and strength so fast
that II surprised me. My aches and
pains all disappeared, my nerves
steadied down. and 1 soon found my
self back TO splendid health. 1 am
going 20 take more Tanlac myself
and also get Mrs. Opal TO take II.
I don't believe Il has an equal in
the world for building up a run
down system"
Tanlac is sold in Wilmington by
