Tonic Is the right remedy, based on the
right principle of removing the cause of
nervousness and gently regulating the nerv-
Gus system and bringing 1t back into har-

controls Oppenhemer Tonic contains not
one drop of alcohol, narcotic or opiate of
any kind. 1t is absolutely harmless and
does not irritate even the most delicate
stomach. Its immediate effect is an I'M
provement in digestion and circulation and
an inducement to natural sleep. Its ultf-
mate effect is the restoration of normal
nervous conditions. Oppenheimer Tonic
