C. 1-29-tfc FURNITURE MAN ? a m * 1VV I A PKAKift lAJNLAt Anderson Dealer Took Eleven Bottles For His Ills. HAD SPENT MUCH MONEY. Tanlac Gave Him Relief and His General Condition Was Improved, He Says. "Tanlac is a good medicine and has done some wonderful things for sufferers. It is particularly good for stomach troubles, as I know from having taken Tanlac. Other members of my family also are taking Tanlac." In these words, W. M. Myers, a well known furniture dealer of 1305 South Main street, Andersc. 5. u., summea up his high opinion of the merits of this remarkably fine remedy. "I suffered from Kindev trouble, and 1 also was bothered with liver and bladder ailments and constipation. I suffered long and severely with a pain in my left side, which baffled all the treatments I ever tried for it, and I even had to undergo an operation. All that time I spent a great deal of money seeking to restore my good health, but I failed to get the relief I sought. "The advertisements of Tanlac caught my attention and I began taking it. My general condition was improved, and the remedy gave me relief from my troubles in a general way. I took eleven bottles of Tanlac, and if it had not helped me I would not have taken so much." Tanlac, the master medicine, is sold by Kingstree Drug Co., Kingstree, Farmer's Drug Co., Hemingway; S. S. Aronson & Co., Lane; R. P. Hin nant, Suttons.
