Here's a Way to Save
Some Doctor Bills
Physicians Give Free Advice by Which
Parents May Profit.

| It's a mater of general interest just
now how ones physical condition can be
got into shape to best receive the bene-
fits of the summer season. Especially
is this true of the children They have
| become run down by winter of un-
natural manner of living because of i'll
considered food and much time spent
| indoors. Spring comes with its sun
shine, its fresh vegetables and all else
/ invigorating, but the children are in no
condition to receive natures S remedies.
Many parents call in the family ply
siclan. Many other parents take adj
vantage of what the physician told to
them when he was first called in consul
taton. All good family physicians say:
Give the children Castoria. Healthy
parents know this remedy of old, for
they took it themselves as children. 1t
was more than thirty years ago that
CastoTia made Il place for itself in the
household. 1t bore the signature of
Charles H. Fletcher then, as it does to-
day. The signature is its guarantee,
which is accepted in thousands of
homes where there are children.
Much is printed nowadays about big
families. DR.. William j. MeCrann, of
Omaha, Nebraska, is the father of one
of these much-read about families, Here
is what he says:

family experience l have, in my years
Of practice, found Castoria popular
and efficient remedy in almost every
home. -
Charles H. Fletcher has received hun
dreds of letters from prominent physi-
clans who have the same esteem for
Castoria that DR.. MeCrann has. Not
only do these physicians say they use
Castoria in their families, hut they pres
eribe it for their patients. First of all
it is Il vegetable preparation which as
similates the food and regulates the
stomach and bowels. After eating

for that too. 1t allays feverishness and
prevents loss of sleep, and this abso-

In many instances-Persons have suffered untold agony for years doc
 toring for nervous weakness, stomach, liver or kidney disease or some other alment when their real trouble was lack of iron in the bIood.-How to tell
 New York, N. Y.-In recent dis course Dr. F.. Sauer, a Specialist who has studied widely both in this coun- try and Europe said: If you were to make an actual blood test on all peo- pie who are i'll you would probably be greatly astonished at the exceedingly large number who lack iron and who are III for no other reason than the lack of iron. The moment iron is sup piled all their multitude of dangerous symtoms disappear Without iron the blood at once loses the power to change food into living tissue and therefore nothing you eat does you any good, you don't get the strength out of it. Your food merely passes through your system like corn through a mill with the rollers so Wide apart that the mill cant grind. As a result of this continuous blood and nerve starvation, people become generally weakened, nervous and all run down and frequently develop all sorts of conditions. One is too thin; another is bIrdened with unhealthy fat; some are so weak they can hardly walk; some think they have dyspepsia, kid
 ney or liver trouble; some can. sleep at night, others are sleepy and tired all day; some fussy and irritable; some skinny and bloodless, but all lack physical power and endurance. Tn such cases, it is worse than fooliShaess to take stimulating medicines or mar cotic drug, which only whip mp your Tagging vital powers for the moment, maybe at the expense of your life later on. No matter what any one tells you, if you are not strong and well you owe it to yourself to make the following test. See how long you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired. Next take two five-g grain tablets of ordinary nuxated iron three times per day after

Then tes. your strength again and see for yourself how much you have gained. have seen dozens of nervous run down people who were who were ailing all the time double, and even triple their strength and endurance and entirely get rid of their symptoms of dysp, psia, liver anu other troubles in from Gen 10 fourteen days time simply by taking iron in tht proper form, and this, after they had in some cases been doctoring for months without obtaining any bene- fit. You can talk as you please about all the wonders wrought by new rem cdics, but when you come down to hard facts there is nothing like good old iron to put color in your cheeks and good sound, healthy flesh on your bones. It is also q great nerve and stomach strengthener and the best blood builder in :he world. The only trouble was that the old forms of in- organic iron like tncture of iron. iron acetate, etc, often ruined peoples teeth, upset their stomachs and Were no. assimi1ated and for these reasons they frequently did more harm than good. But with the discovery of the newer forms of organic iron all this
 
 for example is pleasant to take, does not injure the teeth and is almost immediately beneficial.
 NOTE.-The manufacturers of Nux- atcd Iron have such unbounded con- fidence in it's potency that they au- thoriZe the announcement tha. they will forfeit $l00 to any Charitable in- stitution if they cannot take any man or women under sixty who lacks iron and increase :heir strength 200 per cent or over in four weeks time, pro- vided they have no serious organic trouble.
