Weeks of This Year. 1% Tanlac has brought a new romance |to the commercial world. It is the story of an acceptance and apprecia- ‘|tion of merit never-before attained by ‘a proprietary medicine. Staid ‘business men to whom the actual fig- ures of the production ql Tanlac have | Been presented have scouted them un- til the proof was shown. The produc« tion of Tanlac now stands at the rate of almost four million bottles per year. The exact figures are 3,992,- 800. The sale of a million bottles in the first nine months, which far ex- ceeded any record ever made by a proprietary medicine, now seems in- significant. Over 17,000 Bottles a Day Sales this year bid fair to smash all previous records, as the sale for the first ten weeks of this year amounted to over One Million bottles, STAHL-JACOBS ‘.

It seems almost incredible, but these are actual fig- ures and such is the record estgblish- ed by this wonderful medicine. ‘“One firm alone,” said Mr. G. F. Willis, the international distributor of Tanlac, “has given orders for a total of 150,000 bottles within eigh- teen month’s time. The firm I refer to is the Spurlock-Neal Co., of Nash- ville, Tenn., Mr. C. S. Martin, presi- dent of this great firm, who is also president of the Southern Drug Job- ment. “Tanlas is the result of many years of arduous study by Mr. Cooper and his principal chemist. In fact, the two of them have carefully watched its development from the beginning of the experimental stage to its pres- ent state of efficiency.

Tanlac, the celebrated medicine which has been accom- plishing such remarkable results throughout the United States and Canada, and which has been having a phenominal sale wherever it has been introduced, will now be sold in Bemidji, the exclusive agency having been awarded to the City Drug Store. The amazing success achieved by this medicine in only four years’ time is not only phenominal, but unprecedented. The discovery of Tanlac, the beginning of its manufacture, the establishment of the large and modern laboratories at Day-~ ton, Qhio, occupying more than 60,000 feet of floor space, reads more like fiction than facts from latter-day commercial history. Twelve Million Bottles Sold in Four Years " Although placed on the market but little more than four years ago, over twelve million bottles have been sold, and its ,8ales record probably has never been equaled in the history of the drug trade in America. From coast to coast and from Gulf to the Great Lakes, Tan- lac is known and honored. Millions have taken it and have pro- nounced it the greatest medicine of all time. No matter where® you go throughout the United States, whether East, West, North or South, Tanlac is a household word and is now unquestion- ably the most widely talked of medicine in the world today. Briefly, this is the record of the truly marvelous medicine which will now be placed within the reach of everyone. In only la few weeks’ time it will be placed on sale in practically every large city, town, village and hamlet throughout the entire sec- tion.
