Debility is a loss of vitality. not az
fecting any one part OF the body
particularly but the system general
ly. II Is dangerous because II re-
duces the hody's resistance to dis
ease.
When debility follows acute dis
eases, convalescence is slow and the
strength does not return as II should.
An attack OF the grip often results
In debility that persists for months.
Every body recognizes that the rem
edy for debility Is to build up the
blood because the blood goes to
every part OF the body and an i'm
provement In It's condition is quick
ly felt throughout the system. The
problem In every case Is to find
something that will enrich the blood.

peoples need because they are non
alcoholic and they really build up
the blood and strengthen the nerves
