Do you have to pass up favorite dishes—while the rest enjoy them? That's a sign you need Tanlac! For more than 10 years Tanlac hay restored to vigorous health thou- sands who denied themselves their favorite foods just as you have to.' Mr. William Martell, of 15 Har« riet St., Pawtucket, R. I, says: “My digestion was so poor that I had to live on toast and eggs for six months. Tanlac made a contin- uous improvement and I've gained 22 lbs.” If you suffer from indigestion, gas, dizziness, headaches, constipa- tion or torpid liver—give Tanlac a chance to help you! The first bot- tle often brings the needed relief. Tanlac is a good, pure medicine, made of roots, barks, and herbs that are recognized by the United States Pharmacopoeia.
