Y I have in my possession a prescrip- ton for nervous debility, lack of wig or, weakened manhool, failing mem ory and lame back. brought on by ex- cesses, unnatural drains, or the follies of youth, that has cured so many worn and nervous men right in their own homes-without any additional help or medicine-that I think every man who wishes to regain his manly power and virility, quickly and quiet iy, should have a copy So I have determined to send a copy of the pre- scription free of charge, In plain, ordinary sealed envelope to any man who will write me for it.
 This prescription comes from a pI1y- sician who has made a special study of men and I am convinced it is the surest- acting combination for the cure of deficient manhood and vigor fail- ure ever put together.
 I think I owe it to my fellow man to send them a copy in confidence so that any man anywhere who is weak and discouraged with repeated failures may stop drugging himself with harm full patent medicines, secure what tive, upbuilding, SPOT-TOUCHING remedy ever devised. and so cure him. self at home quietly and quickly. Just drop mea line like this: pr. A. E.. Robinson,4 ,4125 Luck Building, Detroit, Mich, and I will send you copy of this splendid recipe in a plain ordin- ary envelope free of charge. A great many doctors would charge $500 to $500 for merely writing out a pre- scription like this-but I send it en- tirely free.
