"I have lived on eggs and milk for so long that I just can't look at a hen or cow with friendly eyes," she explained laughingly. "When one's diet is restricted to the products of our friends of the barn- ; yard for weeks and then months, it is like suddenly stepping into a little 1 paradise of content to find all of the good things of former days back on your own bill of fare." Mrs. Edwards brightly told story will hold Interest for thousands of men and women who would welcome, as she did, emancipation from a diet. "I have long been a sufferer from stomach trouble," she explained. "I paid in pain for every meal I ate. There was the daily headache that appeared soon after breakfast, and stayed for lunch and supper. My sleep after the hours of suffering, was broken and gave me no real rest. I naa no energy, was urea an me time and life was just long days of dis content. "In the hope of improving I began the diet of boiled milk and boiled eggs. And I was rauhiui. f or weeks I kept, this diet and I did improve some under it, but I was not being cured, I realized. "Now, ray 6tomach is a great deal better. I can eat almost anything without ill effects. I am too thankful to depart from plainly cooked food yet, however, but my appetite is good, my sleep is Bound and refreshing and my housework is no longer an Irritating, difficult task. "The reason? I have taken Tanlac. So why should I hesitate to recommend it to anyone, or everyone, who suffers as I did?
