It has brought me the relief I have sought for years. “During the past eight or ten years my system has been in such run down condition that L waft pe culiarly liable to take coldV Thes* colds pould sometimes continue two or.thnge) weeks and would be tVuickly followed by another. Cold frequent ly would settle in my limbs, back and shoulders, causing me intense oain of a neuralgaic nature. During several winters I have worn plasters on my back almost all the tinlh. At imes I was forced to arise at night and cat he my liralj? in a strong linimen.t to rejieve the-ache. Even >n the summer Ynonths I was great ly troubled with colds, which my '‘vstem seemed unable to throw off. When I had a cold I felt . miserable and as if I were about to fall to pieces. ”1 began taking Tanlac and took five bottles before I stopped. Now I enjoy a freedom f-om colds I have not known in years.- Before I took Tanlac I would catch a fresh cohi every pay day, when 1 went into the (.■old pay rar, anfi would feel terri bly fer a week or more. Last week when I paid off employees no ill ef fects came from the exposure, and the day was vfiry cold. “For years I was peculiarly pf- feeted on my right side, where there was a lump which would swell up 'nd become sore and painful when I would take cold. I could not sleep on that side, but the lump disappear ed while I was taking Tanlac and I can now rest well on that side. I feel splendid in every way. During the .past five years T had to stay in at night because I knew I would take a severe cold If I wenY out and be almost sick, hut now I- can go out at night and go around in my shirt sleeves without suffering later from cold. 1 “I have tried many kinds of med icines. but failed to get the least benefit- , I have removed in a very short time while taking Tanlac a 'ondition which had caused me great suffetring for ten years. Your medi cine certainly has built up my sys tem and has given me renewed strength and energy. I have rec ommended it to several friends.” Tanlac. the master medicine, is sold by John M. Klein exclusively in Walterboro.
