'‘As a result of rheumatism and stomach

and crippled up that 1 had to sell out my
business and get a man to take charge of
the pogtuffice. My legs had perished
away until they were no larger than my
arms -1 couldn't bend them -the leaders
seemed to be tied in knots and hurt me
so 1 could hardly bear anything to touch
me. 1 dust could manage to hobble
around by the use of a walking stick.
My stomach 'was so upset that I could
hardly eat anything. hly appetite was
all gone and 1 just seemed to be slowly
starving. 'Sometimes all I could take
was a glass of milk and even then I suf-
terell.
"For several months I was under treat-
ment at a considerable cost without get-
ting any relict, but my improvement on
a few bottles of Tanlac has astonished
inc and all who knew of my awful con-
dition. It seems that everybody I see
asks me what 1 have done to gain so much
weight and make me look so much
better. My appetite is so big now,I cat)
hardly eat enough to satisfy me, and 1
can eat anfthing--meats and all kinds of
vegetables -and nothing hurts me. 1

the Tanlac tablets in connection with

The rheumatism is all gone out of my
legs -I don't have to use a cane any
more -and 1 can walk any place I want
to go. My legs are getting back to their
regular size, my muscles are getting lirm

neglected looking little toys of about
six and eight yearn respectively stand-

young saleswomen turned sharply
around and In a loud voice said, "Now,
then, It you two boys don't get away
from here at once I'll call the floor-
walker and have you arrested." At the
