"We can never know that an idea '* right or wrong until it has entered the arena of free discussion and met all challenges.

Have You Lost Your Health? Have you been so busy that you have forgotten about your body—the most delicately adjusted machine in the world—until some weak part has broken down and you are afraid?

Disease is merely the lack of some constituent element of the blood that is necessary to maintain life. Oxjjgen is the life-giver, the blood-builder—the germ-de-stroyer. But pumping oxygen into the lungs is not enough. The blood must assimilate it. Iron attracts oxygen just as the magnet attracts steel—therefore, if your blood is abundantly supplied with organic Iron it attracts tne oinrgen from the air in the lungs and the blood is vitalized with life-giving oxygem REOLO supplies the blood with rganic iron (in a form that Is easily assimilated) vitalizing oxygen ana the cell-salts that nourish and rebuild the cells of the body.

EVANSVILLE WOMAN GAINED TWENTY-FIVE POUNDS IN FEW WEEKS
Mrs. Mollie Griffith Rejoices Over Her Wonderful Recovery After She Had Given ' Up Hope. HAD SUFFERED FOR TWENTY LONG YEARS “Tanlac Is The Most Wonderful Medicine On Earth/’ She Gratefully Declares. It is Indeed doubtful If there haa ever been a atatement In all the many thousands that ha ve been made about Tanlae, that la more Interesting or more clearly and forcibly defines the remarkable powers of the medicine than the following from Mrs. Moi :! e Griffith of 2845 East Indiana street, Evansville, lnd. Mrs. Griffith. “Aunt'’ Mollie as she is affectionately called by her many friends, while discussing Tanlac, which has proved of such great benefit to her, seemed to be profoundly grateful and told the special Tanlac representative she wanted her statement published In the papers so that the people may read what Tanlac has done for her. Here is what she says: "When my next-door neighbor told me how much good Tanlac has done her and advised me to try It I thought It impossible for it to help me. I had suffered so long and tried so many different medicines without any benefit that I Jnst didn’t believe anything could help me, but I know better than that now. I believe as firm as I believe anything that Tanlac has saved my life. Not only that, I am so well and happy that I ge all over the neighborhood rejoicing ovor the good Tanlac has done me. “I had suffered for twenty years, in bed today and up tomorrow, seeing no place during all that time. I have been under every kind of treatment and even went through an operation, but nothing did me any good. I suffered from stomach trouble, painful disordered kidneys,
and Indigestion. I lost my appetite and fell off twenty-five pounds during the past six months. Before taking Tanlac my stomich was so bad I had to live on raw eggs and milk, which were the only things I could eat and retain. Even toast felt like lead In the pit of my stomach and caused me the worst sort of pains. My kidneys disturbed me so often at night that I got very little sleep, and for weeks at a time I had to stay tn bed unable even to turn myseK over. They had to put pillows against my back so I could get a little ease and rest. I was the same as an Invalid; could not even take a drink of water without help, and had to be fed like a baby. “I thought my time had Just about come. I had tried what I thought were the best things, but everything failed to help mo and it seemed like I was bound to pass away. But, I am enjoying good health now, ns my looks show, and 1 hardly know how to repay my neighbor who insisted on me taking Tanlac. Whaa I first started on Tanlac I only weighed IX6 pounds, but now I weigh 141. I have’: gained twenty-five pounds on six bottles of Tanlac and am proud of It. Before 11 had finished my second bottle I was out of bed, went to the table and enjoyed something to eat. Not many days later I nte a good meal of bam-hock and cabbage, something I had not dared eat la ten years, but It did not hurt me and from that time on 1 have been eating the things I have craved for so long, but had to leave alone on account of my stomach. I don’t have any more Indigestion, my stomach feels fine, and my kidneys are In good' order. I sleep like a child at night and my housework Is easy for me. I want you to tell everybody what Tanlac has done for me and you can have both my picture and statement to put In the papers to show the people what Tanlac has done for me. I believe it will do the same things for others, as it Is certainly the most wonderful medicine on earth. I will praise It the longest day I live.” Tanlac Is sold In Indianapolis by t** Hook Drug Cos. and Haag Drug Cos„ under personal direction of- a special Tanlac representative.—Advertisement.
