If one feels dull and splrltless, III
the spring or early summer, they
call it "Spring Fever. But there
is no fever--usually. It is the after
effect of our winter habits. The
nerves are mostly at fault. Tired,
WORKOUT nerves leave us languid,
lifeless, and without spirit or ambi-
ton. A few doses of DR.. Shops
Restorative will absolutely and
quickly change all of these depress-
ing SYMPTOMS. The Restorative of
course won't bring you back to full
health in day or two, but it will do
enough in 4S hours to satisfy you
that the remedy is reaching that
'Htired spot''. Druggists everywhere
are advising its use as splendid and
prompt general tonic. It gives
more vim and more spirit to the
spoonful than any other known
nerve or constitutional tonic. It
sharpens failing appetite, aids di-
gestion, frees sluggish livers and
kidneys, and brings new life,
strength and ambition. Test it a
few days and be convinced.
