Says Phesphate Doubles
Strength and Health

Numerous notices have appeared in
the press from time to time telling of
the remarkable benefits to be derived
from the regular use OF a digestible
organic phosphate known among drug
glsts as bitro- phosphate. Investigation
shows that tro-phosphate. which is
Obtainable Of any good druggist, enjoys
its great popularity because Of its pc
culiarly valuable property of quickly
restoring the strength and vitality of
the depleted nervous system. Neuras-
thenia, nervousness, sleeplessness and
physical and mental weakness are al
most invariably due to a starved nerv-
Gus system. This condition can only
BE- corrected by supplying to the nerve
centers the necessary phosphoric food
elements, the lack of which has caused
all the trouble. For this purpose spe-
cialists highly recommended taking with
each meal tasteless 5-grain tablet of
the organic phosphate now SO generally
known to medical science. Bitro- Phos-
while being inexpensive, is undoubt-
edlyt the most remarkable nerve food
and restorative Of health and strength
known to medical science. Bitro phos-
phate II sold in this city by Missoula
Drug CO., G. +. Peterson. d. c. Smith,
and all good druggists.
