officer residing at 1155 Elizabeth
n Elizabeth, N. j., recently re-
ported a gain of twenty pounds by
taking Tanlac, and mas made a state
ment that will be of interest
throughout the state. He said:
"I suffered over a year from indi-
gestion and nearly everything 1 ate
disagreed with me. My appetite just
about left me, and anyhow / was al
most afraid to eat my food soured
on my r.omach and caused gas to
form which kept me in misery for
hours. l kept losing weight and got
so badly rundown 1 felt like I could
hardly stay on my feet.
II had sharp cutting pains in my
back so bad l could scarcely bear it
and | thought / might have kidney
trouble, too. I began to take differ
ent things but could get no relief.
Then l saw Tanlac advertised
and decided to try it, though l didn't
have much hope that it would help
me. But I want to say the very first
bottle did me more good than all the
otner medicine had taken. My APP
petite is enormous now, everything
agrees with me and the pains in my
back and the stomach trouble have
entirely disappeared. / have gained
twenty pounds and am so strong and
well / feel as fresh at the end of
my work every day as when l start
ed. Tanlac a certainly given me
astonishing relief, and l am glad to
tell you about it. | think it is a
wonderful medicine" p
