In the role of leading "I have taken a new lease on life and feel better than I have in a long time, and I recommend Tanlac as the grandest medicine I have ever taken. I wouldn't take anything for the good it has done me." So spoke Mrs. A. C. Bishop,, of 215 South Thirteenth street, Wilmington, to the Tanlac Man. "I had suffered from kidney and stomach trouble for the past eleven years,' Mrs. Bishop continued. "I would become all bloated up with gas and felt stiff all over. My hand and arms would be all puffed up and swollen. I had dul: aching pains over my entire body and occasionally they became very sharp and shot around in different parts of my body. I was very weak and nervous and couldn't sleep. I was no pleasure to myself or anybody else. I had given up completely and was ready to go at any time. Nobody can imagine how I felt. "I got Tanlac and it has helped me in every way. I haven't been bloated since taking it; all the swelling has gone; I eat heartily; sleep fine and am not nervous." Speaking of the remarkable story of Mrs. Bishop, E. H.J3rum said : "I j believe there is no remedy that reaches the very seat of stomach, liver and kidney trouble as effective ly as does Tanlac. Nothing more convincing of what it will do for ner- run-down men and women can De tola man ine sionea uunuu people right here in Wilmington.
