back in memory to an autumn day
just three years past. In Flanders
fields and on the plains of Picardy

they go to hear the word of God,
not TO see a movie"
Some churches, the preacher said,
have motion picture machines to

Corrigan recently reported a gain
OF twelve pounds by the use OF four
bottles OF Tanlac. and also stated
that she has overcome a case OF
stomach trouble from which she had
suffered for six years. Here is what
she says:
'what Tanlac has done for me
seems almost too good to be true.
It has brought me back to health
and happiness when l had almost
despaired OF ever getting well, and
II has increased my weight twelve
pounds besides.
Il had suffered from stomach
trouble and nervous Indigestion for
six years, and my health was almost
completely wrecked. My kidneys
bothered me. too. and I was subject
to frequent headaches and dizzy
spells. At times had such bad
attacks of indigestion that l could
hardly get my breath and the pains
in my stomach were so severe as to
make me right faint and weak.
MY nerves were in such a wretch
ed condition that 1 would lie awake
more than half the night, and get
up mornings more tired than when
I went to bed. I was so short OF
strength and energy that my house
work was a dread adful burden to me.
I got to where I actually dreaded
for night to come, for when I did
happen to drop off to sleep I would
wake up with one OF those awful
spells OF nervous indigestion and nv
| mother would have TO come down
stairs to do something for me.
continued TO get worse instead OF
better and had become despondent
because It seemed like nothing
could help me.
Il certainly do feel grateful to the
good people who told about Tanlac
In the papers, for otherwise I would
not have known about Il, and would
still be a sick woman. My stomach
trouble has left me entirely. I now
eat what l want and all want. and
1 can't sit down TO the table with
out feeling thankful to Tanlac for
ridding me OF indigestion. I am no
longer troubled with headaches or
dizziness, and am feeling just like a
