"I HAVE NEVER

'In all my seventy-two yean I have t
never seen the equal of Tanlac," said i
Mrs. Mary C. Cope, of 274 N. Hick* (
St., Los Angeles, Cal.,' recently ,
"During the past six years," she (
continued, "1 had so much trouble )
with my stomach that I couldn't eat
anything without bloatiftg up with gas *
and feeling miserable afterwards. I
was so nervous and rundown that I
could hardly rest or sleep 'at night
and simply felt miserable all of the
time.
"I had read about Tanlac helping
others and decided to try it for my
self and it has certainly proved to
be the right thing for me, as I have
taken only four bottles so far and
am feeling as well already as I ever
did. My stomach is in fine condition
and I can eat anything and enjoy the j
meals and that tired .nervous feel
ing has left me too. I sleep like a j
child every night and feel strong j
and well all the time. 1 am glad to i
recommend Tanlac and can hope my |
experience with it will cause other suf j
ferers to try it."
