HAD SUFFERED
TWENTY YEARS
Baltimore Resident, Now Well
and Happy, Gives Tanlac
Full Credit.

'If the people who have suffered and
tried other medicines until they are dis
oouraged and out OF heart only knew
what Tanlac has done for me they
would lose no time getting BOTTLE"
recently said Mrs. Nj. Welton, residing
at II South Third street, Baltimore, Md.
"Tanlac not only brought me out of a
hck bed and made me healthy and happy,
but believe it saved me from an
operation, too. For more than twenty
years hardly knew what it was to be
free from pain and distress caused by my
stomach. Often I just suffered agony
both day and night, l dread to think,
even now, of those awful pains in my
stomach and back. had no appetite
and my nerves were in wrctched con-
dition. =.
81 also suffered from terrible head
aches and dizzy spells and was troubled
with shortness Of breath. | spent many
sleeplees nights and finally became so
weak and faint that simply broke down
completely and had to take to my bed.
l always felt listless and worn-out and
terribly despondent and depressed. j
had been told that an operation was my
only hope OF recovery but the very
thoughts of the operating table and the
knife were like An awful nightmare to me.
"One day my daughter brought me
bottle Of Tanlac and, although had
almost despaired Of anything helping
me, I will always thank my Maker that
I tried Tanlnc. The way it has helped
me seems almost miraculous, would
hardly believe it If 1t were not my own
experience, but what have said is true;
Tanlao brought me out of my sick bed
and made me feel like different person
entirely.
''The first bottle convinced me that
! had at last found the right medicine
for my troubles. have aiken four bottles
now and for the first time in years | eat
as please, what please and never have
any discomfort afterwards. The pains
which feared would cause an operation
have left me. I am no longer bothered
with weak, dizzy spells or headaches
and my sleep is sound and restful. | am
now able to work about the house
and really enjoy it. Words cannot
express my feelings Of gratitude and
appreciation Of Tanlac I will praise II
