TAKE PHOSPHATE WITH
YOUR MEALS

The demand today il for men and
women who are strong in every
sense OF the word-possessing the
physical strength necessary to en-.
dure hnrdships and fatigue: the men.
nl strength TO grapple with diff.
cult problems. the nervous force
which ,ndows the body with ,igor
and vitality: the will power to tri-
umph over adversely and turn de.
feat into victory
But such glorious strength Is i'm.
possible so long as your nerves are
weak and exhausted. and therefore.
II you would be really strong YOU
must first care for your nerves
Weak. exhausted nerves need food.
and for this purpose physicians
strongly recommend the use OF the
organic phosphate known among
druggists as bitro.phosphate. and
put up in 5-gr compressed. tasteless
tablets.
IL YOU feel your strength Is
failing from any cause. get sup.
ply of these bitro phosphate tablets
and take one with every meal. Prac.
tically all OF the minor ailments az.
flicting mankind. ms well as many
OF the more serious maladies. can
be traced TO nervous exhaustion and
lowered vitality. and probably this
explains why such remarkable i'm.
provement in the general health is
invariably noticeable when bitro.
phosphate is taken as directed. as
the nerves are thereby revitalized
and made strong.

jurisdictions in the world, although
not one that counts for most in Cath

and at least euualled by London.
While recommendations will be made
by American Catholics, the new arch
bishops will be appointed, under the
new rulings made by the pope, by au-
thorities at Rome
The death Of cardinal Farley leaves
the Sacred college with g. members,
an even 80 Of whom are Italians.
Pope Benedict XIV has almost entirely
ignored, during his ponuticate, the
Italian prepOlderance, and leaves II
