THIS WOMAN GAINS
33 IBS. ON TANLAC
Mrs. Morrison Now Well
and Happy After an Ill
ness of Three Years’
Standing
The phone rang at Morris’ drug
store in Enslev. Alabama, recent
ly, and when Mr. Allison, of the
firm, answered, this is the mes
sage he received:
“This is Mrs. J. D. Morrison at
1403 Avenue F. Ensley, and I
want you to ask one of the Tanlac
Company’s men to come to see
me, fori want everybody to know
what this medicine has done for
me.”
That same afternoon the local
Tanlac representative called to
see Mrs. Morrison at her home,
when she made the following
remarkable statement:
“Three years ago I lost my.
health, and have been sick ever
since. I had chronic stomach
trouble of the worst kind and
just seemed to go into a general
decline. Nobody but people who
have had this awful trouble know
how I have suffered.
“I tried doctors. I tried medi
cine and tried everything, but
nothing seemed to help me a par
ticle. I tried dieting and lived on
liquid foods, raw eggs and things
like that until I almost starved,
but even that failed to relieve my
trouble.
“1 lost all the strength I had
and was a nervous wreck. I nev
er knew what it was to get a
good night’s sleep and was ner
vous, feverish and restless most
ofy the time. I also suffered
dreadfullv from biliousness and
constipation, and was never free
from pain night or day.
“The 26th of last March I was
taken to the hospital and opera
ted on for what was supposed to
be female trouble, and when I
left the hospital I was nothing
but a living skeleton and only
weighed 66 pounds. That is the
truth, and everybody who knows
me will tell you it is a fact. The
operation didn’t do me any good
as far as restoring my health was
concerned. If anything, I got
worse and it just looked like I
was going to die.
“Finally I was told that my
trouble was Tuberculosis of the
bowels and that I had better stay
out in the fresh air all I could, as
nothing else could be done for
me.
“About that time I began hear
ing a lot of talk about the new
medicine. Tanlac, and read a
great deal in the papers what dif
ferent people had to say about it.
Something just seemed to tell me
it was what I needed, although
the doctor didn’t think so, but I
told him I was going to try it any
way. as they had already said
they could do nothing more for
me.
“The first bottle didn’t do me
much good as far as I could tell,
but that didn’t dishearten me,
for I knew it would take time in
my case, so I got the second bot
tle and began improving right
away. ,
* ‘After this I commenced eating
and mv appetite increased every
day. By the time I had taken
three bottles I was able to eat
whatever I liked and gained flesh
and strength right along.
“My nerves got settled and I
got so 1 could sleep at night.
Why, on the fourth bottle alone
I gained 7 pounds and the other
day I actually weighed 99 pounds

Friends of Mr. and Mrs. J. M.
Leach and family sympathize
with them in the death of Mr.
Leach’s father, Mr. John Wesley
Leach, who died at his home, 89
Clifton avenue, Atlanta, Sunday
morning. He had been in feeble
health for several months and his
death did not occasion surprise,
though it came as a painful shock
to members of the family. Mr.
Leach, who had attained the age
of 78 years, was a Confederate
veteran and a member of the
Methodist church. He was a
highly esteemed citizen and for
merly resided in Griffin.
The funeral took place at Mt.
Zion camp ground, near Griffin
Tuesday morning at 11 o’clock,
and was largely attended.
The surviving relatives are his
wife, three sons, Messrs. J. R.
and F. P., of Atlanta, J. M,

—that’s what Tanlac did for me.
“I feel so much better and
stronger, I am now doing every
bit of my work. I even do the
washing and nothing seems to
hurt me. Honestly, this Tanlac
beats anything I ever saw in my
life, and I would not give one bot
tle of it for all the other medi
cines in Ensley and Birmingham
put together.
“I have just returned from a
visit to my old home near Ala
bama City, and it is an honest
fact that my own sisters did not
know me at first. All around
here my neighbors are wondering
what on earth I have found to
put me on feet again, for they
had given me up to die months
age.
“Never as long as I live will I
be without a bottle of Tanlac in
my house, because I owe my life
to this medicine.”

which were discontinued on Oc
tober 31, 1915, in connection with
the readjustment, of the service
in Butts county, so as to restore
: service to families that were in
-1 convenienced, I beg to state that
in order that service may be con
tinued to the additional families
benefited by the revision and
the families who were inconven
ienced may be supplied under the
plan for the restoration of the
former service, it will be neces
; sary that this matter be taken up
with the postmaster and have
him submit a plan for the resto
ration of these routes. It will
not be possible, therefore, to re
store the routes on July 1, 1916,
but the new arrangement will be
made effective not later than
August 1, 1916, which time, it is
understood from your statements,
will be entirely satisfactory.
Sincerely yours,

There is more Catarrh in this
of the country than all other diseases |l
put together, and for years it was sup-*
posed to be incurable. Doctors pre
scribed local remedies, and by constant
ly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Catarrh is a
local disease, greatly influenced by con
stitutional conditions and therefore re
quires constitutional treatment. Hall’s

tutional remedy, is taken internally
