Tanlac will fix her up as it did mo three vears ago." "Before I look It I was suffering from n complication oF r.Hmenta which had resulted in nervous pros tration. .My trouble nil started from a bad stomach and 1 was in a pitiahlc condition. Everything I ate would sour causing mo stub awful pains in the pit of my stomach that I could hardly stand it. .My nerves were in n had fihape, 1 was badly constipated and even now I hate to think of ihe terrible headaches I had. I abo ruf fered from weakness ami pain:; in my ri!ht side, which was the worst kind of torture. Klectrical treatment and everything else was tiled o;i me, ex cept an operation, which I refiittd to stand for. but nothing did me any good. I had always we:ghed around one hundred nnd forty-eight pounds, hut my suffering pulled me down to one hundred nnd twelve, and I was scarcely moro than a frame. I really had no desire to live as my case seemed to bo hopeless. "Well flonio wonderful things hap pen In this world, nnd my recovery is ono of tliein. I pleked up a paper one day In Detroit, Michigan, where I was living at tho time, and read a Tanlac testimonial given by n lady who lived hut a short distance from me, and right then I decided to try Tanlac. Tho results I obtained arc nothing less thnn remarkable. My appetite soon cr.me back, my stomach got so I could eat and digest my food and every one of my troubles grad ually I"ft, and the first UiImt I knew I was re-"'"'-., ;. . ii:.t weight and strength. After using five bottles of Tanlac I found that I had gone up to one hundred and fifty-two pounds actually paining forty poum'.H mak Ing several pounds more than I had ever weighed before. Ard u!thiu"Ti it has been ne:::iy three years now since Tanlac restored mo I have never been bothered with any of my old troubles to this good day. and I have held my w.b:l.t, always woi; h Ing n round ono hundred and fifty pounds. Ko you c:in see why I have been so nnxious to find Tan la c, for my sister. I am going to let her know right awey where fho can gel it. I am glad to give thi3 statement, for the best way I i.nuw to pay the debt of gratitude I owo Tanlac is to tell others now it has made life worth living for me."
