WISHES TO SPEAK — Clarenec Nicodemus Says He Can Convince All of Merits of Tanlac. TELLS OF OWN CASE Well Kn ■•‘wn -Marion Resident Declares Master Medicine Gave Relief. Marion. Ind., Jan. 21—Among the hundreds of people of this city who are loudly praising Tanlac, the Master Medicine, for good it has done them, is Clarence Nicodemus, a well known employe of the National Carpet Sweeper company, who lives at Euclid and Butler avenue. Mr. Nicode,mus said: “I have suffered for more than a year with catarrh of the head and thrfiat, and bad blood and bronchitis. I often had severe pains in my chest and frequently I suffered from painful boils which came on various parts of my body. In fact, during the past twelve months my condition has been very poor. “Hearing of the great good .Tanlac was doing for others I decided to try the medicine. I have taken four bottles of Tanlac now and have experienced great improvement. The medicine certainly did all that was claimed for it in my case. My blood is in much better condition so that I do not have those painful boils now, and the catarrh has been greatly relieved. “There is no better medicine than Tanlac. I will be glad to talk with anyone concerning the merits of Tanlac and I am"* sure I can convince them.” Tanlac, the Master Medicine, is especially beneficial for catarrhal affections of the stomach, liver and kidneys, rheumatism, nervousness, loss of appetite and is a blood purifier and system builder. Tanlac is sold enclusively in Decatur at Smith, Yager and Falk's drug store. —Adv. o PUBLIC SALE.
