NEW YORK. N. Yin a recent dis

no other reason than the lack of iron.
The moment iron is supplied all their
multitude of dangerous symptoms dis
appear. Without iron the blood at once
loses the power TO change food into liv-

eat does you any good; you don't get
the strength out of it. Your food mere
ly passes through your system like corn
through a mill with the rollers SO wide
apart that the mill can't grind. As a
result of this continuous blood and
nerve starvation, people become gen

down, and frequently develop all sorts

Is burdened with unhealthy fat; some
are so weak they can hardly walk :;
some think they have dyspepsia, kidney
or liver trouble; some can't sleep at
night: others are sleepy and tired all
day; some fussy and irritable; some
skinny and bloodless. but all lack physi-

cases 1t Is worse than foolishness to
take stimulating medicines or narcotic
