Nuxated Iron VIII Increase Strength Of
Delicate, Nervous, Rundown People
200 Per Cent. in Ten Days, in
Many Instances.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Most people fool
ishly seem TO think they are going to get re-
newed health and strength from sOno stimu-
lating medicine, secret nostrum or narcotic
drug, said Dr. Sauer, specialist OF this
city, when, as matter Of fact, real and true
strength can only come from the food you
eat But people often fail to get the strength
out of their food because they haven
enough iron in their blood TO enable il to
change food into living matter. From their
weakened, nervous condition they know
something is wrong, but they can't tell
what so they generally commence doctoring
for stomach, liver kidney trouble or
symptoms Of some other ailment caused by
the lack Of iron in the blood. This thing
may 20 on for years, while the patient
suffers untold agony. If you are not strong
or well you owe IL 10 yourself 20 make the
following test See how long you can work
or how far you can walk without becoming
tired. Next take two five grain tablets Of
ordinary nuxated iron three times per day
after meals for two weeks. Then test YOUR
strength again and see for yourself how
much you have gained. 7 have seen dozens
OF nervous rundown people who were ailing

troubles in from ten TO fourteen DAYS tim,
