Newspaper Page TextPage Ten S STILL N LINE GOES TO MEMPHIS REUNION AND MARCHES THREE MILES IN BIG PARADE—GAINS 13 POUNDS. “If it had not been for that Tan lac, I couldn’t have gone to the Con federate Reunion at Memphis on theo Bth of October and marched afoot for nearly three miles in the big parade,” said Frank B. Kendrick, who lives at 4800 Charlotte avenue, Nashville. Mr. Kendrick is one of Nashville's oldest and best known citizens. As a member of company I, Second Kentucky Cavalry, Basil Duke's reg iment, General John B. Gordon's command, Mr. Kendrick saw service throughout the ecivil war, and was wounded four different times. “During the winter,” said Mr. Kendrick, ““I suffered intensely with rheumatism, and when springtime came I went all to pieces. I had just about made up my mind that my end was not very far off. It looked like 1 was on the verge of a general physical decline, and 1 had about des paired of ever walking again. 1 am seventy years of age, have fought q good fight and proven my record, and was ready to go. But gince I got hold of Tanlac 1 have set my head to round out ninety vears, and from the way | feel now 1 believe I will do it. Before 1 began taking this medicine I was rapidly losing what littie strength and flesh 1 had, and was o weak and debilitated it was all 1| could do to walk from the bed to the chair and even that required great exertion. 1 had no appetite at all, couldn’t sleep to do any good and was awfully nervous. My flesh seem ed to dry and I suffered a great deal with headache. “l doctored and doctored, but did not show any sign of improvement, 1 attributed my failure to get relief to my old age and declining physical powers. But I made a bad glidll. be cause after taking Tanlac twe weeks I felt better and younger than I had felt in years. lam now on my ninth bottle, and am actually thirteen pounds heavier than I was before | began taking Tanlac. My clothes were too large—now they are too small, and I guess I will have to buv clothes that will fit me comfortably.

I have a fine appetite now. ““As 1 told you before, I can now walk anywhere, and have thrown my cane aside, because 1 don’'t need it any more, except for bad eyesight. I spent four days in Memphis at the reunion, and Jjust tramped around all over town with the boys. All around were men who gave out dur ing the parade, but at the end I was right there, and didn’t feel the least bit tired. 1 just got back a few dayvs ago, and am awfully glad to tell you what Tanlac has done for me. 1f I had the money I would buy every old soldier a bottle of Tanlac, b=>- cause 1 believe it would add years to their lives.” Tanlac is sold exclusively in Mari etta by Hodges Drug Co.; in Austell, Ga., by Strickland Pharmacy; in Acworth, Ga., by Durham Bros.; in Roswell, Ga., by G.
