DOES WORK NOW , * 1 1 Wife of Well Known Farmi er is Enabled to Walk V ' < All She Wishes. . - J TANLAC PROVES MERIT I • Master Medicine Aided Mrs. i I Chas. Sloan More Than Anything. Kokomo, Ind., Feb. B—“Tanlac8 —“Tanlac helped my wife more than all other medicines she ever tried." Charles Sloan, a well known farmer -who lives on rural ropte No. 6, Kokomo, said a few days ago. “Mrs. Sloan ha<| suffered from rheumatism for more than three years. Severe pains in her hips and limbs constantly bothered her, and would continue after ehe went to bed so that it wds seldom that she got more than three or four hours of actual rest. It was getting so that she hardly could get around, for, besides the rheumatism, Mrs. Sloan also had stomach trouble, and her condition was very poor. “Tanlac was so highly recommend ed that we decided to try it. She has taken three bottles of the medicine now and is improved ever so milt 11. She sleeps much better now: is able to walk around all she desires, and lias improved so that she can wprk. Tanlac is the only one of the many medicines Mrs. Sloan tried, that has actually given relief.” < Tanlac is especially beneficial for stomach, liver and kidney trouble, catarrhal complaints, rheumatism, and is a fine reconstructive tonic prov ing of benefit to these suffering from the affter effects of hard cough/, colds, lagrippe and the like. Tanlac is sold exclusively in Decatur at* Smith, Yager and Falk’s drug •tore. —Advt. DENOUNCING fZiEDICiNES. Wholesale denunciation of proprietary medicines is no more justifiable than wholesale denißiciation or the medical proiaesion. It is no more true that there are reputable physi cians, who unselfishly devote their lives to an unending struggle with disease than that there are stand ard remedies which do as gcod a work; often where the work of the good physician cannot reach. A good j example is Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, which has fcr forty years been "alleviating the suffering.-: of women and curing the ills peculiar to their sex. —Advt. SWAMP-ROOT STOPS SERIOUS BACKACHE. When your back aches, and your bladder and kidneys seem to.be disordered, remember it is needless to suffer—go to your nearest drug store and get a bottle' of Dr. , Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. It is a physician's prescription for diseases of the kidneys and bladder. It has stood the test of years and has a reputation for quickly and effectively giving results in thousands of cases. This prescription was used by Dr. Kilmer in his private practice and was so very effective that it has been : placed on sale everywhere. Get a bottle, 50c and SI.OO, at your nearest ■ druggist. However, if .you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents 1 to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writ- . ing be sure and mention the Daily democrat. — (Adv.) ’ o —BM* . -<• w.w True Secret of Keeping Youthful Looking !
