Jacksonville Man Says Tanlac
Restored His Health After All
Else Had Failed.
“I am so well pleased with what
Tanlac has done for me, that I would
' not be without it even if it'cost ten
■ times as much as it does,” was the
emphatic statement of William West,
well-known mechanic at the ship
i yards, South Jacksonville.
“For a year or more I suffered
> from indigestion and a very bad form
jof stomach trouble. My appetite was
; very poor. I was afraid to eat any
' thing but the very lightest foods, such
i ;is cereals, milk and bread, and had
' to almost quit eating meat and such
things as cabbie altogether. What,
I did eat soured on my stomach, caus
ing gas which bloated me up so that
it was hard to take a deep breath. I
felt like there would be no more
pleasure in life for me unless I could
get relief, and I tried everything I
could hear of, but nothing seemed to
heln me.
“Tanlac was very highly recom
mended to me for stomach trpuble,
so'l decided to try it, and in my case
it has come un to everything good 1
ever heard about it. I have often
seen the time during the past year
when I would have given nearly ev
erything I possessed to be able to en
i<-- the heaiLy meals I now eat. And
the best part about it is, I do not
suffer afterjvards. lam never trou
bled with shortness of breath and
sour stomach and 1 feel fine. There is
somethin"' about Tanlac that does the
work.”
Tanlac is sold in Americus by
Carswell Drug Co and in Sumter by
Ewing Mercantile Co. adv
