MINISTER’S ADVICE
BLESSING TO HER
Mrs. Kelley Thought She
Was Beyond Hope—
Says Tanlac Restores
Her To Splendid
Health
“I had long thought that no medi
cine could do me any good, hut Tan
lac has done for me in just a little
while what I had tried for years to
get other medicines to do and my
enthusiasm for it is unbounded.” was
the statement made recently by Mrs.
G. M. Kelley, wife of G. M. Kelley,
well known employee of the West
Virginia Pub) & Paper Co., residing
at 420 Highland St., Covington Va.
“My stomach pained and worried
me all. the time for four years and
everything 1 ate jfavo me awful
cramps. At times I couldn’t retain
a bite of food, and even a crust of
dry bread would nearly throw me in
to spasms and I had such gagging
spells 1 was afraid 1 would burst a
blood vessel. I was so nervous I
couldn’t sleep and my forehead, neck
and back hurt awfully. Sometimes
1 couldn’t straighten my tuck, and
my back was drawn so at times I
couldn’t stand up straight. Finally
I got so bad off I just had to quit
doing any of my housework and
spent most of my time lying down.
“'Well, after everything that
seemed possible was done for me, the
i Rev. W. C. Richardson, a Methodist
•minister, told us he thought Tanlac
was what I needed. -So I started tak
ing it and while on my first bottle
I got so much better that I knew
Tanlac was just what 1 had been
needing, and now I’m in such fine
health I’m really enjoying life for
the first time in years. I have a
wonderful appetite, never have a
touch of indigestion, and can keep at
my housework all day long without
sitting down, except at meal time,
and still feel good. Tanlac is sim
*nly grand.” adv
