STRAIGHT TALK
ABOUT GETTING WELL

when the doctor tells you you are
suffering with general debility. :"
We know of one remedy that
will correct these conditions and re-
store health-Rexall Mucu-Tone.
There is no need of technical
description of how Mucu-Tone on
going into the stomach is quickly
taken up in the digestive process
and, entering the blood, is carried
through the network of tiny cap
illaries and so is brought in direct
contact with the sore membranes.
NEW LIFEi NEW vIGORi
What you-what all of us-are
interested in is getting rid of the
pain we are suffering, in regaining
the strength we have lost, in re-
storing the vigor of youth, in fill
ing our arteries with rich, red
blood and building up our bodies
and in steadying our tagged nerves.
ReXall Mucu-Tone does all of
this and does it quickly. There is
no long waiting for promised effects
to slowly make their appearance
no months of deferred hope; no
realization that you have again
wasted money that you could i'll
afford to lose; no final despair.

If this was the only medicine
advertisement in this newspaper,
we believe you would quickly try
a bottle of our Rexall Mucu-Tone.
But you have read the extravagant
claims of so many marvellous medi-
cines thatyou have grown skeptical.
Let us reason with you a mo-
ment.
We say to you positively and
without reservation that we have
never before known a tonic or
catarrh cure to accomplish the re-
suits worked by Mucu-Tone. 1t
is a scientific, meritorious, reliable
remedy. We know how it is COM
pounded, and we unhesitatingly
give it our endorsement-not only
our endorsement, but our guarantee.
If you try a bottle of Rexall
Mucu-Tone and are not thoroughly
satisfied with it, we will refund
your money promptly, cheertLlly
and without any red tape.
Now, we can't afford to allow
such strong statements to be print
ed in our advertising space unless
ne know ne are nght. If we de-
ceived you in this advertisement,
we would lose your confidence and
your trade-and we don't spend
money in advertising for the pur-
pose of losing trade.
SOME OF OUR REASONS.
Let us give you some of our
reasons for talking SO earnestly
about Rexall Mucu-Tone.
You know that our bodies are
lined with a thin, web-like skin
called the mucous membrane. 1t
begins in the nose and mouth and
extends down the throat through
the stomach, intestines and blad-
der. 1t also covers the liver and
kidneys; and in women, the pelvic
OiBoho'
Now this membrane is com
posed of millions of tiny cells
filed with fluid called mucous,
which is sort of lubricant for the
various organs. If a few of these
cells should become choked up
and unable to supply this fluid, it
would cause sickness; if most of
them were so affected it would
cause death.
WHAT 1T MEANS TO BE "RUN
DOWN"
This is what causes the state of
i'll health and weakness which ex-
lists when you are run down !"

The talked-of removal of the county
seat of Cape May county from Cape

probably be adopted.
