ENGINEER WEEKS GAINS 20 POUNDS TAKING TANLAG Wouldn't Take All Money in Universe for Good It Did Him. Everybody in Jacksonville, Fla., either knows or has heard of Engi neer Chas. J. Weeks, who runs the Seaboard Air Line fast train "Fox" between Jacksonville and Tampa. Mr. Weeks bears the distinction of being the second oldest engineer in point of service with his foad, hav ing been with the company thirty five years. He is a man of very temperate habits, few words and strong' convictions. According to his 6wn statement he has never taken a drink or used tobacco in any form. He not only has a splendid record for efficiency as a railroad man, but is held in the very highest esteem by his fellow citizens in Jack sonville. "I've gained twenty pounds on seven bottles of Tanlac and feel as well and happy as I did when a boy," said Mr. Weeks to the Tanlac representative who had called by special invitation at his attractive residence, 2139 Lydia Street, for his statement a few days ago.' "For twenty years I suffered with nervous indigestion of the worst sort," he continued, "and at times during the past fifteen years I didn't think I would last much loneer. To tell you the truth, I fi nally reached the point where I didn't much care whether I lived or died. "After eating I would have so much gas on my stomach and would get so puffed up I could hardly fasten my clothes on. My food would sour and curdle, and I would have heartburn so bad I would feel like a piece of hot iron was laying in my stomach, and the pains were simply awful. To tell you the truth, I just don't know how I lived. I could eat no meats or sweets of any kind, and for days I would have to live almost entirely on bread and water. God only knows how I suf fered. I just can't describe it. The pains around my heart and the pal pitation were 'so intense I thoueht at times I must have heart trouble. I couldn't find anything to relieve my troubles, although I tried hard. "Tanlac was so highly recom mended to me that I bought a bot tle and cannot express in words how grateful I feel for the good it has done me. Just think of it a few bottles of this medicine has made me feel better than I have in fifteen years it seems almost unbelievable, but it's the plain, simple truth. I can now eat anything placed before me, and everything agrees with me perfectly, and. I enjoy my sleep as much as a child, and I'm feeling just fine in every way. J feel so nimble I think I could hold a good runner a tieht foot-race. "Tanlac has entirely relieved me of the things that troubled me so long, and I just don't know how to express my gratitude. I wouldn't be in the same shape I was in before forfait the money in the universe. "If anybody doubts my statement you can just telr them to write me a personal letter and I'll answer it. I'll be only too glad to have the op portunity of telling them what this great medicine has done for me." - Tanlac is sold in Omaha by all Sherman & McConnell Drug Com pany's stores, Harvard Pharmacy and West End Pharmacy.
