My appetite left roe entirelv and at timee I could hardly bear the sight of food, and what little I did eat caused me severe suffering afterward. Oa would form on my stomach so badlv that it affertod my heart and I thought I had heart trouble. I was so nervous I would jump at the least unexpected noise and would drop everything I had in my hands, i got so weak and faint at times that I would have to catch hold of something to keep rnni falling over. My sloep was broken and restless and I was los ing weight rapidly. I had little strength j or energy and, as I had tried all kinds of medicines without relief, I had become very much discouraged over my condition. My husband had been taking Tanlac, and when 1 saw what wonderful result a he was getting I decided to try it myself, and now I think aa much of Tanlae as he doee, because It haa helped me the same way. appetite haa com back and everything agrees with me perfectly. I am taking on weight rapidly and have I already gained nine pounds; in fact, feel perfectly well in every way. Tanlac haa done wonders for me, ana I am only too happy to tell others about it.

But for the fact that his ticket did not permit a stopover, Mr. O'Shea add that he would like to stay a week, as he felt certain It would take him all of that time to get acquainted with the town. It was by the merest chance that a reporter of The Tribune staff, it the corner of Main and First South streets, man a heard a little under medium height, say to another man who was clearly a tourist: Why. when I first saw this town.

We drove through by team as far as Omaha, Neb., that year, when father s money was nearly used up and he remained all that fall and winter in Omaha, finding employment with his team. As soon as apnng opened we started to drive west, with California as our destination. It was early in the summer of 18K5 that we reached Salt Lake, and here we camped for about a week, while my father made preparations for the long drive to the land where he hoped to grow rich, and I had a good time getting acquainted with thd youngsters oi my own age in this town, which was already marked by stieets wider than I had ever seen before, although the fundings were sll small and built mostly of d the bricks, with now and then a log cabin or a little house of real lum-lyr.

Many whose eyes weie falling say they have had their eyes restored by this remarkable remedy, and many who once wore glasses say they have laid them aside.
