Declares He Now Eats Better, Sleeps Better and Feels Bet ter in Every Way Since Taking Tanlac. Everybody in Columbia, Tenn., knows F, C. McGavock, who I owns and operates a large dairy business in that city. I “If there ever was a believer in Tanlac,” said R. M. Smiser, the well-known Columbia, Tenn., I druggist, “it is Mr. McGavock, as he talks about it ali the time. But he has a right to talk, as no medi cine has ever helped any one as much as Tanlac has helped him. He really does not look like the same man.” Here is Mr. McGa voc’ks statement: “I have now taken five bottles of Tanlac and have gained thirty pounds. If you don’t believe it, right here I am, come and look at me. I don’t konw what my trou ble was, but I was all run down and was unfit for work. I think though it must have been my stomach, as I had no appetite and nothing seemed to agree with me. I was also nervous and could not sleep good. I just kept going down hill and losing weight right along, and nothing did me any good until Smiser, the druggist, told me about Tanlac. “I tried it on his recommenda tion and it. helped me from the first few doses. The medicine seemed to take hold right at once, and I began to eat better, sleep better and feel better right from the start. If anybody wants to know what I think of Tanlac, just tell them to come and see me. I am right here in Columbia. Tan- lac has simply made a new man of me and I expect to tell all my friends about what it has done in my case.” • Referring to the above state ment, G. F. Willis, southern dis tributor of Tanlac, said: “Tanlac is without question the greatest medicine of its kind on the American market today. The extreme popularity of Tanlac can only be accounted for by the ex traordinary merit for the medicine. The system, besides being purified, is toned up and invigorated, as the preparation aside from cleans ing the blood, revitalizes the con stitution, overcoming, as it quickly seems to do, nervousness, indi gestion, non-assimilation of the toe food, headaches, dizziness and other troubles that are so com mon.” Tanlac is sold exclusively in Mc- Donough by the McDonough Drug Co; in Hampton, Ga., by H. A. Moore; Pinson’s Pharmacy Stock bridge, Ga.; The Norman, Turner Co., Ola, Ga., and J. B. Simmons & Son, Knob, Ga. tStockbridge, R.F.D.)
