STRENGTH

to vigorously push a business,
strength to study a profession.
strength to regulate & household.
strength to do a days labor with
out physical pain. All this repre-
SCENTS what is wanted, in the often
heard expression, "0h! wish !
had the strength" If you are
broken down, have not energy, or
feel as if life was hardly worth Iiv-
ing, you can be relieved and re-
stored to robust health and strength
by taking BROWNS IRON BIT
TIERS, which is a true tonie-a
medicine universally recommends
for all wasting diseases.
