"My slater's health has broken down," Mrs. Legault continued, "and I firmly believe Tanlac will fix her up as It did me three years ago." "Before I took It I was suffering from u complication ot ailments which had resulted lu nervous pros tration. My troubles all started from a bad stomach aud I was In a pitia ble condition. Everything I ate would sour causing me such awful pains In the pit of my stomach that I could hardly stand It. My nerves were lu a bad shape, I was badly constipated and even now I hate to think of the terrible headaches I had. 1 also suffered from weakness and pains In my right side, which was the worst kind of torture. Electrical treatment and everything else was tried on me. except an operation, which 1 refused to stand for. but nothing did me any good. I had al ways weighed around one uunaren and forty eight pounds, but my suf-1 ferlng pulled me down to one nun drad and twelve, and I wa scarcely more than a frame. I really had no J desire to live as my case seemed to i be hopeless. "Well some wonderful things hap pen In this world, and my recovery is one of them. I picked up a paper I one day In Detroit, Michigan, where! 1 was living at the time, aud read a Tanlac testimonial given by a lady who lived but a short distance from me. aud right then I decided to try j Teniae. The results I obtained are nothing less than remarkable. My ippetlte soon came back, my stom- ' ach got so I could eat and digest my food and every one of my toubles , gradually left, and the first thing I knew 1 had regained my lost weight and strength. After using five bot tles of Tanlac I found that I had gone up to one hundred and fifty-two pound s actually gained forty pounds making several pounds more than I had ever weighed before and although it has been nearly three years now since Tanlac restored me I hove never been bothered with any of my old troubles to this good day, and I have held my weight, always weighing around one huuderd anil fifty pounds. So you ran see why 1 have been so anxious to find Tanlac for my sister. I am going to let her know right away where she can get It. I um glad to give this statement, for the best way I know to puy the debt of gratitude I owe Tanlac Is to tell others how It has made life worth living tor me." Tanlac Is sold In Burns by Reed Bors. aud at Crane by Vale Trading Co. Adv. LIVE NTOt'K WANTED KOR IN.
