"I feel just like a good friend felt for me-I want to help the other fel low who may be suffering," Mr. Pal mer said, and that is the spirit which moves such men and women. They want others to share their good for tune. "For the last six years I have felt myself slipping from the path of health," he continued. "Indigestion and catarrh had attacked me. My ap petite became poor, my fiod did not taste right and I would suffer after eating. I grew nervous and was get ing run down. I did not feel well and would get up feeling achy and dull. I knew it would not do for me to keep on that way. 'Get Tanlac,' a friend told me, and I took his tip. Ngow I am entirely well of my troubles. I don't feel any more indigestion and my ca tarrh has disappeared. I can eat any thing without fear of it hurting me. My sleep could not be better. Tanlac has done the work for me and I give my statement now to others. Get on the Tanlac Special and start for Well ville, I tell them." For themselves, the well known men and women who endorse Tanlac would not talk, but the bond of sym pathy between such people is strong.
