THOUBANI>B OF THIN, FRAIL PEOPLE RESTORED TO HEALTH BY TANLAp. MANY REMARKABLE EXPERIENCES TOLD People in all Ranks of Life Tell What Celelwated .Medicine Has Done for Them. ONE of the most noteworthy features in connection with Tanlac and the one that stands out more prominently than any other, perhaps, is the very large number of well-known men and women from all parts of the country who have recently reported astonishing and rapid increases in weight as a result of Its use.

Thousands have testified that this famous medicine has completely restored them to health and strength, after every other medicine and the most skilled medical treatment have failed. One of the most remarkable cases on record is that of Mrs, Viola Ives, of 315 Cross st At, Little Rock, Ark., whose statement appears below: “In May of 1913,’’ said Mrs. Ives, “I suffered a complete breltkdown of my nerves and my entire system gave way. About six weeks afterwards I was carried to the hospital. I, became perfectly helpless—couldn’t move any part of my .body and Just lay there in bed for five months, not knowing anything or anybody. I was brought home In October, 1913, and tried all kinds -of medicine and everything I was told about. “I read about so many people getting relief by taking Tanlac and my husband got 'me a bottle. After taking three bottles I began to feel better. I have taken several bottles of Tanlac now and I can walk anywhere and sleep like a child. When I took my first dose of Tanlac I weighed only one hundred and twenty-two pounds. I now weigh one hundred and sixty-two—-an actual gain of forty pounds since I started on Tanlac.’’ Texas Man Testifies.
