Mrs. Gross Praises TanIac for
Overcoming Stomach Trouble

Results Are Priceless.

Before I took Tanlac only
weighed ninety-four pounds and

recently, by Mrs. Mabel Gross, 1887
Aldrich ST., N, Minneapolis, MINI.
"For nearly two. years l had been In
q seriously weakened condition and
suffered nearly all the time from head
ache and backache. My nerves were
beyond my control and was terribly
dizzy. 1 couldn't half sleep and my
stomach was so out Of order that even
the sight of food nauseated me.
! 1.-THE benefits I have received from
Tanlac are priceless. l am now per-

"Then on my stroll today l met
some fine bullfrogs. They said they
acted as watchdogs for their master.
THAT was very surprising to me
and l asked them how 1t was pos
sible for bullfrogs to be watchdogs.
II had always been told watch
dog was a watchdog and bullfrog
a bullfrog. And l asked them about
this.
"They explained to me that when
people spoke Of q watchdog they
meant dog who kept watch or guard
over house or person.
'Well, they said they were just like
dogs who kept watch or guard over a
house or person, for they kept watch
over their master and over their mas
ter's house.
"This was very interesting to me,
for I could not quite see how they
would De able to do all this, and
begged them to be SO good as to ex-
plain 1t to me.
"They said they were both willing
and pleased to do so.
"TheIr masters house was right on
the edge of small lake. In this lake
the bullfrogs had made their home,
and every night they all sang and
gave a fine concert, which their mas
ter enjoyed.
''If any tramp or stranger appeared
about or could be heard, at once the
bulfrogs stopped singing, and In this
way their master knew stranger was
about the place and would not be
taken unawares but would be ready
and prepared and on guard.
'T next met some fishes belonging
to the Shad family as l passed along
great river, which was Just Off a
big city harbor.
1.-THE Shad family were very proud,
even though 1t meant that their pride
might end in peoples mouths.
"For they said in olden days their
grandparents were not thought so well
of and If people ate shad they were
so ashamed of eating such cheap, poor
tasting fish that they pretended actu-
ally they were not eating 1t.
"But in these days they told me
they were considered fine food and
really quite luxury.
ut was strange, they thought, that
there were even fashions In food and
in what was considered good to eat.
"They thought that was very
strange, and l must say that I agreed
with them.
"Then stopped by and saw a collie
dog who had saved four people from
being overcome by gas. He had
howled so that a passer-by had come
In to see what was the matter and
had taken the family out into the air
In time
"He is all right now, I am thankful
to say.
"And then ! was taken for bur-
ried trip by an airplane so that could
go down and see the frogs of the
marshes known as the Hyla Avivocas.
These frogs have really musical voices
and they can make seventeen differ
ent musical notes.
"They sing, too, with pauses and
stops and very much as humans do.
Truly they are remarkable!
