of stomach trouble is sounded by
y\\ T. Hornbarger, 56 Pine. St.

was a victim of stomach trouble in
its worst form but was completely
restored to health by taking Tanlac.
He says:
“I have actually gained thirty
six pounds by taking Tanlac and I m
able to work regular now for the
lirst time in four years. I don’t be
lieve there is a man living who ever
had stomach trouble worse than I
did. I lived in dread of those spells
all the time and life was almost un
bearable. I am now in the best of
health. Tanlac gets credit for it all.”
Undigested food ferments on the
stomach and soon the entire system
is filled with poisons. Tanlac was
designed to restore the stomach to
a healthy condition and build up the
whole body. Millions everywhere
acclaimed its wonderful power. Get
a bottle today.
