THIS OLD SOLDIER L IS STILL IN LINE c “lf it had not been for that Tanlac I couldn’t have gone to the Confederate Reunion at Memphis on the Bth of October and marched afoot for nearly three miles in the big parade,” said Frank B. Kendrick, who lives at 4800 Charlotte avenue, Nash ville. Mr. Kendrick is one of Nashville’s oldest and best known citizens. Asa member of company I, Second Kentucky Cavalry, Basil Duke’s regiment, General John B. Gordon’s command, Mr. Ken drick saw service throughout the civil war, and was wounded four different times. "During the winter, ” said Mr. Kendrick, "I suffered intensely with rheumatism, and when springtime came I went all to pieces. I had just about made up mind that my end was not very far off. It looked like I was on the verge of a general physical decline, and I had about despaired of ever walking again. lam seventy years of age, have fought a good fight and proven mv record and was ready to go. But since I got hold of Tanlac I have set my head to round out ninety years, and from the wav I feel now I believe I will do it. Before I began taking this medicine I was rapidly losing what little strength and flesh I had, and was so weak and debilitated it was all I could do to walk from the bed to the chair, and even that requir ed great exertion. I had no ap petite at all, couldn’t sleep to do any good and was awfully nervous. My flesh seemed to dry and I suffered a great deal with headache. *‘l doctored and doctored, but did not show any sign of improve ment. I attributed my failure to relief to my old age and de clining physical powers. But I made a bad guess, because after taking Tanlac two weeks I felt better and younger than I had felt in years. lamon my ninth bottle, and am actually thirteen pounds heavier than I was before taking Tanlac. My clothes were toolarge—now they are too small, and I guess I will have to buy clothes that will fit me comfort ably. To make a long story short —the medicine just seemed to fill me with new life and energy, and put me right on my feet. I have a fine appetite now. "As I told you before, I can now walk anywhere, and I have thrown my cane aside, because I don’t need it any more, except for bad eyesight. I spent four days in Memphis at the reunion, and just tramped around all over town with the boys. All around were men who gave out during the parade, but at the end I was right there, and didn’t feel the least bit tired. I just got back a few days ago, and am awfully glad to tell you what Tanlac has cjgne for me. If I had the money Ptoould buy every old soldier a of Tanlac, because I believe it would add years to their lives.” Tanlac is sold in Jackson exclu sively by Slaton Drug Cos. and in Flovilla by Dr. A.

I firmly believe Black-Draught saved my little girl’s life. When she had the measles, they went in on her, but one good dose of Thedford’s Black-Draught made them break out, and she has had no J more trouble. I shall never be without Buck-Sight ; in my home.” For constipation, Indigestion, headache, dizzl- ; ness, malaria, chills and fever, biliousness, and all similar £ ailments, Thedford’s Black-Draught has proved itself a safe, a reliable, gentle and valuable remedy. 4 If you suffer from any of these complaints, try Black- 4 4 Draught It is a medicine of known merit Seventy-five 4 years of splendid success proves its value.
