For Sick and Nervous People

We have a cure for nervous and unsteady people, weak. feshless people. and pimply, pale or sallow people; people who are troubled with loss of ambition, failing mem. ory, depression of spirits, lack of confidence, nervous headache, and wakefulness; all these symptoms are produced by weakened nerves, brought on by the watery condition of the blood. Make strong, rich, red blood, and furnish food for the nerves is the way to stop the source of disease, and the cure then is only a question of days. The best flesh and blood builder is Dr. Gunn's Blood and Nerve Tonic, in tablet form, to take at meal time. Sells at 75c a box, or boxes for $2, at all druggists. People gain from 1 to 8 lbs of solid healthy flesh per week by the use of this medicine That is an indication it is doing good. For sale at the c. A. Cover drug store.
