Kernels, suffered after eat ing the most severe attacks of indi gestion. We had tried every way to find relief for her suffering, but without success. She had even been under the knife at a hospital, dur ing the past year we had spent at least six hundred ($600) dollars for doctors’ bills for her, but Tanlac was the only medicine which gave her relief. Tanlac is the greatest medicine on earth. ‘ Her auffering was so intense and ti terrible that it caused her to go into a kind of convulsion. We had laid her out. thinking she was dead at least tw^hundred (200)’times in the past eleven months.
