Howard, well-known farmer and stock-raiser of King Hill, Idaho. “I had suffered from rheumatism and idigestion twelve years,” contin ued Mr. Howard, “and could hardly eat a thing because everything went against me and 1 had no appetite. Every joint in me was swollen with rheumatism and hurt so I could hardly beaar to be touched. I was in such a bad fix I couldn’t work and had to use a walking stick to get along. The first bottle of Tanlac made a great change in my feelings, my rheumatism soon left me and I threw my stick afjide, for now I can walk as well as anybody. “And eat?—why, I just can’t get enough and I feel like I could do as much work as I ever could. Tanlac is worth its weight in gold, and it has convinced me that there’s at least one medicine that will do what they say it will and I want to do my part in letting everybody know about it.” Tanlac is sold by leading druggists everywhere.
