SENT FREE TO MEN!
A Most Remarkable Remedy That
Quickly Restores Lost Vigor
to Men.
A Free Trial Package Sent by Mail
toAll Who Write.

Free trial packages of most remark
able remedy are being mailed to all who
will write the State Medical Institute
They cured so many men who had battled
for years against the mental and physical
suffering of lost manhood that the Insti-
tute has decided to distribute free trial
treatment and all men who suffer from
any form of sexual weakness resulting
from youthful folly, premature loss Of
strength and memory, weak back, varico-
cele or emaciation of parts can now cure
themselves at home.
The remedy has a peculiarly grateful
effect of warmth and seems to act direct
to the desired location, giving strength
and development just where it is needed
1t cures all the ills and troubles that come
from years of misuse of the natural func-
tions and has been an absolute success in
all cases. A request to the State Medical
institute, 1928 Elektron building, Fort
Wayne, Ind, stating that you desire one
of their free trial packages, will be COM
piled with promptly. The Institute is de-
sirous of reaching that great class of men
who are unable to leave home to be
treated, and the free samples will enable
them to see how easy it is to be cured of
sexual weakness when the proper reme-
dies are employed. The Institute makes
no restrictions. Any man who writes will
be sent a free sample, carefully sealed in
a plain package, so that it's recipient need
have no fear of embarrassment or pub
licity. Readers are requested to write
without delay.
