% V etc.; but no title is more significant than that given Bismark the Man of "Blood and Iron" It typifies the vital force as well as the physical and mental strength necessary to unify Ger many.
 Blood and iron have really been insepar- able since the Creation, and when in perfect harmony mean perfect health and strength. Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic is calculated to pre- serve this harmony, supplying the blood with iron in proper form and proportion. Iron has always been used as tonic for the blood but it remained for Dr. Harter to dis cover and perfect combination of iron and other tonic ingredients. A trial of half a-century has proven that Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic Is a perfect blood purifier. Most of the ills we are heir too come from impure or impoverished blood. The blood carries necessary supplies to every part of the body. If it fails to do so, some part of the bodily machine will lag. Tagging means sickness. Don't permit tagging. Don't wait until you are down sick. Use Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic and keep well. It is n scientific compound (not crude mixture) of iron with other tonic ingredients "a blood purifier and builder.
