That the new tonic. iona Vita, IL

run down in health, and ! have tried
all kinds Of tones without success.

and irritable. ] had no appetite, and
the little food that ! ate did not thor.
oughly agree with me. II seemed o.
though every organ in my body was
tired out.
II read an account in . paper on
Nervous Debility and II struck me
that this was exactly what ] was SUI

toned q new tonic, iona Vita, which
had been manufactured with an end to
relieving this nervous condition.

stronger in every way. and l attribute
this Improvement entirely to Tona

There are other symptoms Of ner.

Mr.. Ferris was afflicted" said one Of
the iona Vita experts. such as shoot

and restless sleep. heartburn and q

that can be brought on by an impaired
