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 five miles from Acworth tomor row, and won’t it be a jovful meeting, returning to mv hus band and home absolutely well JENKINSBURG Miss Florence Stallsworth left Saturday for a month’s visit to relatives in Atlanta.

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.” Tanlac is sold bv Slaton Drug Cos., in Jackson, and Dr. A.
