COULDN'T HOLD
DOWN HIS JOB
Blood Got So Bad Was Almost
Paralyzed On One Side.
Leg Swelled Up
LAYED OFF WORK FOR
NEARLY FIVE YEARS

After suffering for years and
being unable to work | am glad
to say that once more | feel like
my old self and am back on the
job" declares another of those
many men who had to give up
work through poor health.
Miners, trainmen, mechanics,
and men of all kinds who spend
most of their time out of doors,
often lay-off and can't even hold
down their job because of some
blood trouble that gradually and
like a thief in the night steals
their strength and health away.
Read what this well known
Princeton, W. Va, man says
about it.

sis of one side of my body and

wake up with a numbness in my
whole left side. My leg swelled
up and turned purple and it got
so bad | was unable to work for
nearly five years. Then a friend
of mine advised me to get some
Acid Iron Mineral and in three
days after all those long years of
suffering my leg healed except a
tiny spot and that was gone soon
afterwards. The numbness and
paralysis left me and | feel bet

years. 1t cured me of all my
troubles and boosted me up so

first time in years, writes W. H.
Richards, Sr., w. Va.
If a man lets his blood go until
it is sluggish and full of acids
and poisons he can hardly walk,
much less keep up with the times.
Many a man is plugging along
hardly making both ends meet
because health holds him back.
The fellow who gets over the
top of these high cost of living
days is the fellow with speed,
real health, rich red blood, good
digestion, and appetite and for

the United States will help their ally
with this burden, but even then the
task will take time to accomplish.
France has certain elements of
strength, however, upon which she is
relying to restore her former prosperi-

soil and an industrious and thrifty
population. With her coal and iron
mines, her crops of wheat, grapes,
hemp, flax and jute, her skill in the
manufacture of leather, hosiery, cotton
goods, glassware and silk goods, her

French are trying now through the

the excellence of their wares, and also
to learn from the exhibits of others
