So I have determined to send copy of the prescription free of charge, in plain, ordinary sealed envelope to any man who will write me for it.
 This prescription comes from physi- clan who has made a special study of men and I am convinced it is the surest- acting combination for the cure of def- cient manhood and vigor failure ever put together.
 I think I owe 1t to my fellow man to send them copy in confidence so that any man anywhere who Is weak and discour- aged with repeated failures may stop drug ging himself with harmful patent medi- cines, secure what I believe is the quick est-acting restorative. upbuilding, spot touching remedy ever devised, and so cure himself at home quietly and quickly. Just drop me a line like this: Dr. A. E.
