CAPT. MILLER
GAINS 23 POUNDS
* 1
Southern Ry. Conductor Says His
Wonderful Restoration to Health
Is Talk of the Yards.
"Yee, sir, it is a fact, I have
taken seven bottles of Tanlac and
have gained twenty-three pounds,”
said Captain A..H. Miller, one of
the best known railroad men in Knox
ville.
“Before 1 began taking it,” he con
tinued, “1 only weighed one hundred
and fifty-one pounds. I now weigh
one hundred and seventy-four pounds,
and feel like a sixteen-year old boy.”
Captain Miller, who is the conduc
tor on trains Nos. 73 and 74, plying
between Knoxville and Harriman, on
the Southern Railway, had just arriv
ed in Knoxville, checked out his
train and reached his attractive home
on Scott street, when he was met by
the Tanlac Man.
“I am indeed glad you caliled,”
said Capt. Miller, as he shook the
ham] of the Tanlac representative
and invited him into hie spacious par
lor. “For several weeks Mrs. Miller
and myself have been reading the Ue
timonials of Knoxville citizens regard
ing the beneficial effects derived fron
taking this wonderful medicine, and
1 had promised my wife to go up to
Kuhlman-Chambless Drug Company’s
drug store and tell them what Tanlac
had done for me, but have been too
busy.
“My restoration to health is the
talk of the railroad yards, and every
day 1 am being congratulated by mi
friends upon how well I look.
“I had for years been afflicted with
catarrh and stomach trouble,” con
tinued Capt. Miller, ‘‘and when spring
came I was in a wretched run-down
condition, a walking skeleton, if you
please, and just had to drag my self
about. Before I became afflicted with
the terrible double complaint I weigh
ed 190 pounds, and was strong, ro
bust and healthy. I went from bad to
worse and occasionally was patched
up, but nothing I took in the way cl
medical treatment reached the spot,
and I was on the verge of taking an
extended layoff from my duties.
"I coul scarcely eat anything at
all, and what I did eat seemed to
witn gas and seemed to be bloated all
the time, and my suffering was in
tense. My stomach would pain me
and burn like a coal of fire. I was
so constipated I Jiad to take a pur
gative pellet every night to get any
temporary relief. I was cross and fret
ful and so nervous that 1 never en
joyed a night’s sleep. Hiissing steam,
the noise of the train and the ring
ing of the bell grated on my nerves
and all through the hours of the
night I could hear these noises.
“Ait times I would have dizzy spells
and would stagger and frequently
had palpitation of the heart. This
was my condition when I heard of
Tanlac. I was willing to try anything
to got well, and started in on a bot
tle. In a few days I noticed a noark
eour on my stomach. I would till up
ed improvement in my condition, and
sent an bought six more botttee. I
have taken seven bottles and here 1
am in better health than I have
enjoyed for twenty years.
“I cam eat anything, have gained
twenty-three pounds, as I told you
before; I am not constipated at all
eat hearty, sleep well and of morn
ings my wife has to pudl me cut of
bed I sleep so soundly. I sleep all
night without hearing steam whistles
and moving cars, and my nerves are
now strong and I hardly know myself
so great has been my transformation
from a weak, run-down man to a
strong, robust, healthy condition that
it is the talk of all those who know
me.”
Tanlac is eold by leading druggists
in all principal cities of the South,
and is sold exclusively in Winder by
Dr. G. W. DeLuPerriere, an in Beth
lehem by Leslie Hendrix. —Advt.
