THINKS TANLAC SAVED HER FROM HOSPITAL Once Afraid to Eat Because Af O -CC--I UfL.'A ur ourrenng tv utui Folio Ae J! GAINED 15 POUNDS Instead of Living on Cread and Water Diet She Now Eats Heartily. r "I was so afraid to eat because of the suffering food caused me, that I had been living almost on bread and water when I heard what a wonderful new medicine called Tanlac was doing for others. And just think of it, I have been saved from the hospital and have gained 15 pounds. This was the earnest declaration of Mrs. Edwin C. Shell, of 6 Main Ave., Schennectady, If. Y., that shows the wonderful reeord this new reconstructive tonic, system purifier and stomachic is making. "What a blessing Taniac has been to me," Mrs. Shell continued, and her words have been echoed by thousands of other men and women. For more than three years," said Mrs. Shell, who is the wife of a well known business man, "f suffered. fWhen I tried to eat ordinary food it Would not digest but would sour and ferment and cause gas, bloating and pains. The pains would extend even to my chest and I would have a feel, ing of suffocation and shortness of breath. Some nights I would get on ly two or three hours sleep. When the stilling spells came*l would have to sit up. When I tried to do house work I would have to sit and rest every little while. I was losing flesh and strength every day and, Oh, how miserable I was. "After I had taken the Tanlac , treatment I did not have a bit more trouble with my stomach, not even indigestion. I could eat anything. I slept fine and always felt good. I did not tire out after my work and I could even do my washing. With good digestion and fine sleep I began to build up right away and was not surprised when I began to gain in weight. Finally I gained 15 pounds I am very glad to tell everyone about xaniac."
