BAD NO HOPE
OF RETURNINC
Went to Atlanta Six Weeks
Ago Propped Up on Pil
low-Takes Tanlac and
Gains 35 Pounds
About ten davs ago J. B. Bat
tle went into Jacobs Pharmacy
at Atlanta to get a bottle of Tan
lac for his sister-in-law, Mrs. O. C.
Cason, who lives some distance
out, near Acworth. While mak
ing the purchase, Mr. Battle told
of the wonderful improvement in
Mrs. Cason’s condition since she
began using the medicine about
six weeks ago.
He also made the statement that
Mrs. Cason felt so grateful for
the wonderful benefit she had re
ceived that she wanted to make a
public statement, as she felt it
her duty to tell the whole world
about Tanlac. He then suggest
ed that Dr. Elder, the Tanlac rep
resentative at Jacob’s, call at his
residence for a personal interview.
When Dr. Elder called at Mr.
Battle’s residence on English av
enue, the following morning, it
happened that Mr. Battle himself,
met him at the door and cordially
invited him into his living room.
Mrs. Cason, who was bright and
happv. soon made her appearance
and began with delight to tell of
the wonderful recovery of her
health, and her statement will go
down in history as being one of
the most remarkable ever given
a proprietary medicine. Here is
her story in her own words:
“About sixjweeks ago I left my
home on our farm near Acworth,
Ga., to come to my sister’s home
here in Atlanta,land I left with
only a shadow of hope of ever re
turning alive to my home and
husband.
“I left Acworth,” she contin
ued, “in a comfortable automo
bile, propped up on pillows, com
ing through the country. I had al
most as much medicine as I had
baggage a big box full of all kinds
of medicines that had been pres
cribed for me. I reached here
very weak and exhausted and with
scarcely enough strength to walk
to the door. This trouble, from
which I had suffered so long, had
reduced me to almost a shadow,
as I only weighed 60 pounds.
“My brother-in-law, Mr. Battle,
said: ‘Well, you have tried every
thing else with no relief, now I
want you to lay aside your “drug
shop” and take Tanlac.’ Of
course, I was willing to try it, for
the medicine is the talk of the
whole country. Well, he got it
for me and I started on my first
bottle that day.
“When I had taken about half
of the first bottle I began to feel
stronßer and encouraged. I con
tinued to take it and it is nothing
short of marvelous how I improv
ed day by day. I felt myself
further and further from the
grave. M v appetite returned and
my food seemed to nourish me
and agree with me. My skin and
complexion began clearing up and
I improved in every way possible
until I am now a well woman, and
when 1 say well, I mean absolute
ly what I say. I want to tell the
whole world that 1 thank God for
Tanlac.
“I weigh 95 pounds now and
feel as well as I ever felt in my
life. lam going back to my hus-
band and home on the little farm

row, and won’t it be a jovful
meeting, returning to mv hus

Miss Mattie Wilson who has
and happy—and won’t I tell ev
erybody about what Tanlac has
done for me?”
“Yes, it's just like she says,”
chimed in Mr. Battle about this |
time. ‘ ‘Tanlac has simply robbed
the grave, and if you could have
seen her when she started on this
medicine, vou would say the same
thing.
“I didn’t know at the time just
what her trouble was, but the
doctors said she had pellagra. !
She may have had it, for all I
know, but there is one thing cer-i
tain, she hasn’t got it now, or at I
least you wouldn’t think so if you j
could watch her eat. I told her,
jokingly, the other day, that she
was eating me out of house and
home. I don’t guess there ever
was a case like hers, and there is
one thing certain, you can count
on us telling everybody about it.
because I fully believe she owes
her life to this medicine today.”
