Good Health

and pure blood are inseparable. If your blood is bad. your health must suf- fer. Poor blood allows the body to lose vitality just as poor fire under the boiler allows the steam to run down. From poor blood to impure blood is but a step, and impure blood is mother to a large percentage of human ills. Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic is an antidote for both poor and impure blood, for 1t is both a builder and purifier - food and a medicine. It is the best combi- nation of the kind known to medical science, and it's success for nearly half a century has led to it's endorsement by thousands of medical men who have been unable to find substitute.

that so much Is claimed for the Cure-aU
IL is impossible for anyone TO believe it:
If the advertiser confined his claims TO
the curing Of one disease. as do the pro-
prietors OF Pyramid Pile Cure. readera
would have much more faith in pub
lished testimonials. Those familiar with
this great remedy know that testj-
mOnials rs 10 its merit may be relied
upon implicitly. also that the cures
brought about by its use are little short
Of marvellous. The genuineness Of the
testimonial here given is vouched FOR.
and is but one OF thousands received.
Il had a friend who had used one box
Of 5O-cent Pyramid Pile Cure that en-
tirely cured her ! saw the good effect
on her. and thought I would try IL as

Just as bad: the first box nearly cured
