Pale Faced Women Take Phosphates to Make Rosy
Cheeks and Beautiful Forms.
Men need Phosphates to Make Strong,
Healthy Vigorous Bodies.
Athletics their strength energy and endurance ECO per
by simply taking few weeks Of Phosphate

Atlantaa, Ga. DR.. F. A. Jacobson
says that phosphates are just as es-
sential to any man or woman who
tires easily, is nervous, irritable, worn
out, or looks haggard and pale to
make a strong, robust, vigorous
healthy body, as they are to cotton to
make it grow. The lack of Phos-
phate is the cause of all enemic condi-
tions and the administration Of s.
grain Argo-Phosphate tablets will in
crease the strength and endurance of
weak, nervous, care worn men and
women 800 per cent. in two or three
weeks time in many instances, and
their continued use will build up the
whole nervous system, and give new
life, vim, vigor, and vitality to the
whole body. 1 always prescribe Argo
Phosphate to patients who are pale,
and colorless, and it is surprising to
see how quickly a few weeks treat
ment will transform a pale face to
rosy checked beauty. There can be
no rosy checked, healthy, beautiful
women, without their system is suffi-
GENTLY supplied with Phosphates. In
recent interviews with physicians on
the grave and seriousness conse-
quences of a deficiency of Phosphates
in the blood of American men and
women, I have strongly emphasized
the fact that doctors should prescribe
more phosphates in the form of Argo-
Phosphate for weak, wornout, hag-
gard-looking men and women. When
the skin is pale, and flesh flabby, it is
sign of anema. When the phos-
pilates go from the blood, the pink

RHFITMATISM SO BAD HE
COULD NOT DRESS SELF
Tried All Kinds of Remedies
But Found a Few Drops
of Iron In Water Each
Day Brought Relief
Says Acid Iron Mineral Is Cheaper
Better Way.

Rheumatism, rheumatism, and then
some more rheumatism seemed to be
my lot in life. 1t would attack me
at unexpected times and almost knock
me out for good and ALL" says L. w.
Sours, of Luray, Va.
"For two years I wasn't able to
do anything and couldn't even dress
myself, and at night I simply tossed
and rolled with agony and, due to
the kidney trouble, I reckon, my
dreams were fitful and bad and very
often I would wake up in the middle
of the night and when I would try
to turn over I couldn't. I would
struggle and the pain would become
almost unbearable and my breathing
would become difficult. Anyone who
has suffered as I did, can realize my
gratitude and appreciation Of Acid
Iron Mineral. I thought it might
help me and used one so cents bot
tie and two 81 bottles before I could
see much change, but on the third
dollar bottle felt like new man
and can do a good days work and
rest well at nights"
81 urge people to take this iron
medicine wherever I 60 because it
helped me where a great many other
remedies failed and after trying four
,................., and continued to get
worse I gave up being treated and
found relief in AIM. I want to
cali special attention of folks to the
fact that when they take AIM do
not stop with one bottle but be sure
to continue and you will get relief
for know what it will do," declared
L. W. sours, Luray, Va, R. F. D 4. ;
Rheumatism, when it grips the
system, chases around through the
veins, sometimes in one spot and then
i'm another. It must be removed
from the blood. 1t needs the help of
iron to enrich, purify and cleanse
the blood and Acid Iron Mineral,
in it's highly concentrated form, test
ing over 10 degrees specific gravity
makes the ideal remedy. All drug
gists have it.
"Acid Iron Mineral is sold here by
the Harmon Drug Co., Palace Drug
Co.. and Murray Drug Co.

tone. They become nervous, irrita-
BILE, respondent, melancholy, the
brain fags, and the memory fails.
Therefore if you wish to preserve
your youthful vim, vigor and vitality,
to ripe old age, you must supply the
deficiency of Phosphates lacking in
your food by using Argo-Phosphate,
the form of phosphates most easily
assimilated.
NOTICE: Argo-Phosphate which
is recommended and prescribed by
physicians in all enemic cases, is not
secret or patent medicine, but one
that is sold and recommended by well
known druggists everywhere, and
physicians are daily subscribing the
constituents contained in it. Being
entirely unlike many other phos-
pilates, it is easily assimilated and
will be found effective in the treat
ment of indigestion and stomach
troubles, we'll as for care worn, ner-
vous conditions. The manufacturers
of Argo-Phosphate will forfeit to any
charitable institution $4,000 if they
cannot treat any man or woman un-
der 65 who lacks Phosphates, and in
crease their strength and endurance
from 100 per cent. to 800 per cent. or
more in one months time, if they are
free from organic trouble. It is dis
pensed by all reliable druggists.
If your druggist will not supply you
send S1.00 to the Argo Laboratories,
10 Forsyth St., Atlanta, Ca, and
they will send you two weeks treat
ment by return mail.

AS we grow older and less active,
less and less food is required to meet
the demands of our bodies. It too
much is habitually taken, the stom-

the advanced age of IS or 80, you
will find that he is a.light eater. Be
as careful as you will, however, you
will occasionally eat more than you
should and will feel the need OF

BRITAIN is WARNED
OF FINANCIAL CRISIS
THAT FOLLOW PEACE

London, Aug. 16.-Warning that
Great Britains could not go on spend
ing money at the present rate without
serious disadvantage, was given re-
Gently in the House of Commons by
Andrew Bonar Law. Chancellor of
the Exchequer. The disadvantage, he
said, would be realized more COM
pletely when the war was over than
now. So long as the government was
raising funds for prosecution of the
war by loans. Mr.. Law told the House
of Commons, the country was living
in a false atmosphere. The position
after the end Of the war, he predicted
would require all the skill and ability
which the government could exercise.
He added that he would like to have
raised a larger proportion of the war
expenditures by revenues, but he
pointed out the dangers Of excessive
taxation.
The government at present is fl
nancing the war, aside from aid re-
ceived from the United States, by use
of short term exchequer bonds and
treasury bills. The latter are amount
ing rapidly and about 100000
pound sterling of them are ioutstand-
ing.

WORLD MEAT FAMINE
is PREDICTED. AFTER
THE WAR BY HARCOURT

London. August 16.-Predictions OF
a world famine of meat after the war
were made recently by Viscount Lew
is Harcourt. He said the decrease OF
pasture land resulting from more ex-
tensive cultivation would reduce the
supply OF. cattle, and the supply OF
ome-produced meat would be fur
Their affected by the decision of the
war office to feed the army for three
months on home grown meat.
While at the Board of Trade last
year he obtained estimates of the
German government that It wouid
take five years after the war to re-
store Germany's stock Of cattle to the
normal figure Of .23,000,000 head.
He estimated that. after the, war,
Europe would want to obtain or i'm
port 100000 to 100000 head OF
cattle. For several years Germany
would have to feed her people on i'm
ported frozen or chilled meat and
would come into market where she
had never bought before. Further
the men of the Allied armies had
been taught to eat a pound of meat
a day and one could not expect that
they would abandon that habit i'm
mediately.

RATS FURNISH FAT
AT BOUNTY PRICES
In SWEDISH CITIES

Stockholm, Aug. 16.-The city au-
thorities have begun a campaign
against rats by offering, a reward OF
about 2 1-2 cents for every carcass de-
livered. While it is hoped thus to re-
duce the rat plague considerably, the
chief end is to secure an important
addition to the stocks of fats available
for the making of soaps and lubri-
cants. The rat carcasses are treated
in corpse utilization esta hlishment,
where, after the fat has been boiled
out, what remains is converted into a
poultry food. South Sweden has for
some time been utilizing cadavers OF
various animals in this way. A con-
siderable amount of fat is also Sc
cured by skimming large containe->

where there is an unavoidable waste
