If one feels dull and splritless, in the spring or early summer, they call it
 Spring Fever" But there is TO fe- yer usually. It is the after effect of our winter habits. The nerves are mostly at fault. Tired, worn-out nerves leave US languid. lifeless, and without spirit or ambition. A few doses of Dr Shoop's Restorative will absolutely and quickly change all of these depressing symptoms The Restorative of course won't bring you back to full health in a day or two, but it will do enough in AS hours to satisfy you that the remedy is reaching that tired spot" Drug gists everywhere are advising it's use as a splendid and prompt general tonic. It gives more vim and more spirit to the spoonful than any other known nerve or constitutional tonic. It sharp ems a failing appetite, aids digestion, frees sluggish livers and kidneys, and brings new life, strength and ambition. Test it a few days and be convinced. Sold by all dealers. *
