THIS MAN SAYS HE FLIRTED WITH GRAVE Fell Off Until He Only Weigh ed Seventy Pounds. Takes Tanlac and Gains Twenty- One Pounds. “T!! tel! you the truth; if I knew this Tanlac was not going to he sold any more I would buy every bottle on that counter over there before 1 left here toniuht,” said W. A. Spitzer, at Patton-Pope’s Drug Store, Birmingham, recent ly. Mr. Spitzer is a well-known painter employed by the Tennes- Coal, Iron and Railway company, and resides at 910 South Sixty eighth street. Birmingham. “Before I began taking it I only weighed 135 pounds. Today 1 got on the scales and tipped them at 156 —a gain of 21 pounds—and more than l ever weighed in my life. That’s exactly wl.at 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 be gan having attacks of acut * indi gestion. Whenlthese attacks came on me I would just swell up like a mule with the colic, and got limp as a rag. My breath would get short, and my pulse so weak, I was afraid my heart would stop beating. The stomach pump had to be used ev ery time, and this was the only thing that would relieve me. Finally my kidneys went back on me, and 1 don’t believe I was out of pain night or day for four long years, and 1 actually got so u-eak 1 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 1 was flirting with my grave, and guess I would have been in it if it hadn’t been for Tan lac. For four years I couldn’t hit a lick of work. 1 guess l was as near dead as any man you ever saw to be alive. But, look at me now; I am strong and as well now as 1 ever was in my life, and can do as big a days 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 or seven years for doctors’ 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. “1 have been a painter all my life, and have had painter’s colic several times, so I guess that had Trade Mark Registered PHOSLIME FOR COTTON “A very valuable fertilizer to the COTTON GROWERS, because they have practiced their one-crop system for so long that their chief need is for a plant food that will give the results that I believe the _PHOSLIME will give."

I read of Tanlac one day, and that’s one day I hit 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 1 get ashamed of myself. My landlady said the other day she would have to raise my board. I told her, though, she must re member that for four years she made money off me, and that I was only making up for lost time. Whv,-seven or eight biscuits at a meal don’t satisfy me now, but I just quit at that fear i overdo mat ters, but everything taste so good to me now! And sleep! why, I never would wake if they didn’t come in and shake me. I haven’t a pain about me now.” Tanlac is sold exclusively in Mc- Donough by the McDonough Drug Co; in Hampton, Ga., by H. A.
