My kidneys were out of order all the time, and I would have such awful pains in the small of my back that it was up and down a flight of steps, And then the awful headaches I used to. have nearly every day would ost drive me wild.

I was right, for Tanlac was just the medicine had been needing all the time, and I began to feel better by the time I had finished my first bottle, I I never have a pain or an ache of any kind. The headaches are gone and I am not bothered any more with those awful pains in my back. I can go up and down stairs take long walks and climb hills as well as I ever could. I have a splendid appetite and eat three hearty meals every day and I never have a sign of stomach trou- ble or indigestion of any kind. My nerves seem to be in perfect con- dition and I sleep like a child ev- ery night. Now, that is what Tan- lac did for me after I was given up to die, and that is why I say that it is the best medicine in the world.
