What the American Red Cross
means to our people was brought
home to Martinsburg in the epidem.
ic of Spanish influenza, when nurses
and medical and food supplies were
provided as freely as possible in
view of the general demand.
Many persons learned then that
the Red Cross is not altogether an
organization to give relief TO people
in other lands. They learned that
the contributions they had given to
the Red Cross returned to them in
the..form- of sympathetic and sub.
saantial help, Thus contributions to
the Red Cross ara a kind of insur.

WINTER HARD

Timely Use of Tonic Will Ward
Off Sickness and Win
ter Ills
WRITER SAYS BUY A
BOTTLE FOR OLD PEOPLE

More elderly people die in win.
ter. simply because their weakened
rundown systems will not stand the
rigors of winter without the great
est of care. The system already
weakened by age and disease, must
be toned up and the whole system
reached by a good tonic.
Hypophosphites. wild cherry bark,
malt, iron. sherry wine. and cod liv-
er oil are best, and In Hypo-Cod
these splendid elements for elderly
people are combined into q palatable
pleasant tasting wine-like tonic,
which agrees perfectly with the
most delicate stomach.
The lungs more readily oxidize
the blood. The bowels, kidneys and
liver work tremendously. The blood
is decidedly improved. Nerves are
greatly benefited and an elderly
persons appetite, digestion and
strength are brought back almost
to the old youthful zest and vigor
Many thousands thus fortify their
ageing system against the ,rigors of
winter. and the whole winter long
never have cold, cough or spell of
sickness, or rheumatism.
