OPPORTUNITY TAKES
OFF ITS HAT TO MEN
WITH A BANK ACCOUNT
“Opportunity takes off its hat to
I the man with a bank account. Op
i portunity is ready for the man, wo
man or child who is ready for it. The
ash barrels of history are full of peo
ple who were unprepared for oppor
tunity when it came their way.”
There are plenty of improvident
people in the world. They spend,
content for the present if they have
enough for the month’s needs, but the
I time comes when Opportunity awaits
the man who has the wherewith to
take advantage of it . Wherewith
may be in the form of credit, friends
who have confidence in you, or cash.
A person who has none of these is of
the ash barrel vintage.—Industrial !

remarkable experience with Tanlac,
Mr. Smith recently said:
“About one month ago, 1 had a se
vere attack of what the doctors de
scribed as acute indigestion, and for
several days I was a very sick man.
Shortly after eating, one day, I be
gan to experience a very full, uncom
fortable feeling in my stomach. I
had never had anything like it before
und I hope I never will again, for
my stomach swelled up so from gas
that I could hardly breathe. My
Lands and feet got cold and clammy
and my pulse weak. I felt like I’d
give anything in this world for one
good deep breath. 1 started doctor
ing myself, but in spite of the medi
•ine I took, I continued to get worse
and begun to think my time had
,'ome.
“A friend of mine told me about
this Tanlac and I sent and got a bot
tie and started taking it. Well, sir,
you can believe it or not, but I begun j
to improve from the very start. By
the end of the week I was all
straightened out again and now that
I've taken three bottles, 1 feel like a
new man. I have forgotten all about
the indigestion and can eat just any
thing I want.

CATARRH CANNOT BE CURED
with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the dis
ease. Catarrh is a local disease,
greatly influenced by constitutional
conditions, and in order to cure it you
must take an internal remedy. Hall’s
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally
and acts through the Diood on the mu
cous surfaces of the system. Hall’s
Catarrh Medicine was prescribed by
one of the best physicians in this
country for years. It is composed of
some of the best tonics known, com
bined with some of the best blood pur
ifiers. The perfect combination of
the ingredients in Hall’s Catarrh Med
icine is what produces such wonder
ful results in catarrhal conditions.
