THIS MAN SAYS HE
FLIRTED WITH GRAVE
Fell off Until he Only Weigh
ed Seventy Pounds. Takes
Tanlac and Gains Twenty-
One Pounds.
“I’ll tell you the truth; if I
knew this Tanlac was not going
to be sold any more I would buy
every bottle on that counter over
there before I left here tonight,”
said VV. A. Spitzer, at Patton-
Pope’s Drug Store, Birmingham,
recently. Mr. Spitzer is a well
known painter employed by the
Tennessee Coal, Iron and Rail
way company, and resides at 910
South Sixty-eighth street, Bir
mingham.
“Before I began taking it I on
ly weighed 135 pounds. Today I
got on the scales and tipped them
at 156 a gain of 21 pounds—and
more than I ever weighed in my
life. That’s exactly what four
bottles of Tanlac did for me.
Just look at this belt! I had to
let it up four inches, and it is
still tight on me.
“About seven years ago I com
menced having stomach trouble,
and it kept getting worse until I
began having attacks of acute in
digestion. When these attacks
came on me I would just swell up
like a mule with the colic, and
got as limp as a rag. My breath
would get short, and my pulse so
weak, I was afraid my heart
would stop beating. The stom
ach pump had to be used every
time, as this was the only thing
that would relieve me. Finally
my kidneys went back on me,
and I don’t believe I was out of
pain night or day for four long
years, and I actually got so weak
I could hardly stand on my feet
—much less work. I was fading
away fast, and got down to
where I only weighed 70 pounds.
I was almost a walking skeleton,
and I tell you I was flirting with
my grave, and guess I would
have been in it if it hadn’t been
for Tanlac. For four years I
couldn’t hit a lick of work. I
guess I was as near dead as any
man you ever saw to be alive.
But, look at me now; I am strong
and as well as I ever was in my
life, and can do as big a day’s
work as any man.
“Yes, sir, if ever a mortal man
has been through the rub I am
the man. I have paid out, I
guess, not less than $2,500 in the
past six of seven years for doc
tors’ bills and medicines, and
have bought enough medicine
from drug stores in Birmingham
to own an] interest in one of
them, and I was lucky not to
have had an undertaker’s bill to
wind it all up.
“I have been a painter all my
life, and have had painter’s colic
several times, so guess that had
a lot to do with my condition.
Anyway, there seemed to be
nothing that would straighten me
out. Every time I heard of a
now medicine I would get it. I
read of Tanlac one day, and that’s
one time I hit it right. That’s
what saved me. Why, Tanlac
just raised me right out of my
grave. I can now' eat anything,
and actually I eat so much I get
ashamed of myself. My land
lady said the other day she would
have to raise my board. I told
her, though, she must remember
that for four years she made
money off of me, and that I was
only making up for lost time.
Why, seven or eight biscuits at a
meal don’t satisfy me now, but
I just quit at that for fear I will
overdo matters, but everything
tastes so good to me now! And
sleep! why, I never would wake
up if they didn’t come in and
shake me. 1 haven’t a pain
about me now'.”
