BUSINESS WOMAN
RESTORED BY IT
Well Known Wilmington Resi-
dent Declares Tanlac Is A
Boon To Humanity.

The best evidence of the merits of a
medicine is what those who have act
ually taken it have to say about it,
and this is true and beyond all ques-
tiOn when such statements are made
by people of high character and pub
lished right in the community where
each and every fact can be investigat-
ed and verified.
Mrs. Anna B. Wendt, owner of the
Wendt Electric Company at 1886 Mad
ison St., Wilmington, is now an ar
dent champion of the wonderful mer-
it's of Tanlac. In an interview at her
place of business, the other day, Mrs.
Wendt, said:
81 prize Tanlac above every medi-
cine, even that which was prescribed
for me. I have praised it to all my
neighbors and as for myself never
expect to be without it in my home.
For five years my stomach was in
such a disordered condition that
could not eat the lightest meal with
out suffering afterwards. I actually
dreaded to eat anything because of
the awful pain and discomfort suf-
fered from the formation of gas on my
stomach. My heart would often beat
so fast it alarmed me and l. could
hardly walk as far as Eighth street
without having to stop and rest and
get my breath.
''I also had terrible binding head
aches and got so weak and nervous 1
trembled like a leaf. I never knew
what sound sleep was and would get
up mornings feeling as tired and worn
out as on retiring at night. One day I
ran across a Tanlac testimonial that
described my case so well that I be-
gan taking the medicine myself and
have been thankful a thousand
times that I did.
after the first bottle of Tanlac
knew 1 had at last found the medicine
1 had needed so long. felt a hundred
per cent better and three bottles built
me up until feel like a new woman.
I now eat just anything want and
never feel a touch of Indigestion.
never have a headache or feel ner-
vous and 1 sleep peacefully as a
child. 1 now buy Tanlac three bottles
at a time, take it off and on as feel
the need Of it, and it keeps me in per-
feet health. Tanlac is certainly a boon
to suffering humanity and I will praise
it as long as live
Tanlac is sold by all good druggists.

WOMEN GIVE OUT

Housework is hard enough when
healthy. Every Milford woman who is
having backache, blue and nervous
spells, dizzy headaches and kidney or
bladder troubles, should be glad to heed
this Milford woman's experience.
Mrs. Harry Hudson, 40 Oliver Lane,
says: my back panied and ached so 1
couldn't do my housework. At times to
bend over was impossible. was tired
and it seemed l couldn't get rested. At
night when I went to bed I felt as
though were lying on boards, as my
back hurt so. Lots af times dizzy spells
came over me, blurring my sight and I
had to be helped to a chair so 1 could
sit down. A relative who had used
Doan's Kidney Pills, advised me to try
them and they worked wonders for me.
I am not bothered now and I am able to
do my housework without any trouble. -

. This is a very dangerous disease, par
ticularly to children under five years of

other opiate is given, is easily cured by
giving Chamberlain Cough Remedy.
Most people believe that it must run its
course, not knowing that the time is
very much shortened, and that there is
little danger from the disease when this
remedy is given. 1t has been used in
many epidemlcs of whooping cough,
with pronounced success. 1t is safe and
pleasant to take.
