Officials are now convinced that

Germany, II Is now assumed. had

CIRCUS SEASON IS

that delight the hearts of small boys,
have their days and seasons during
each calendar year and each is proceed
ed and followed by tell-tale earmarks
such as dirty hands and knees, torn
clothes, bruised shins and general
tousling. So the heralding of the com.
ing of the circus means the develop.
ment of a fad with the healthy boys
in any town. Before the circus arriv-
ed "circus season" begins, and after
the canvas tops have been taken down
and carried away, it continues for vari.

trapeze rugged from the cellar rafters
and the tight rope stretched between

Trying to make the dog walk on his
hind legs and compelling the cat to

REAL GODSEND TO
l4-YEAR-OLD GIRL
WAS NERV-WORTH
Grateful and Happy Mother
Proves the Truth of a
Standing Nerv-Worth
Claim.

That claim is this, that no medicine
in the world does more for weak,
nervous, excitable children than does
this superlative family tonic. Note
how Mrs. Harriet Trout stated the case
some time ago:
Nerv-Worth Co. = My daughter,
Vida, aged IA, was in very nervous
state. This interfered with her stud
les at the Philo High school and
gave her nervous prostration. She
was dizzy, had very severe headaches,
digestion much impaired and she
trembled violently at times. Was
weak, rundown and out of spirits. 1
snw the ads in The Times Recorder
telling how Wentworth had helped
weak, nervous children and decided
to try it for my suffering daughter. In
a few days after beginning on Nerv-
Worth Vida began to improve. Dir
ziness disappeared, headaches stop
ped, digestion quickly improved,
trembling passed away and she quick
/ ygrew stronger. She has now taken
less than bottle of Wentworth and
is very much better. Looks stronger,
feels stronger, her studies come easier
and she is greatly improved in every
way. Nerv.Worth l believe, will make
vida an entirely we'll girl and she
will keep on taking 1t for that purpose.
