Phosphate and Iron
For Weak, Thin Folks

Weak. thin. nervous people almost
invariably owe their condition to
lack OF phosphate in the nerves and
lack OF iron in the blood. one OF
the surest. quickest and safest ways
In which TO make up the deficiency
is TO take with each meal a 5-grain
tablet of digestible phosphate and
iron, known among druggists here
as Blood-lron Phosphate: because it
supplies iron to the blood as well as
phosphate to the nervous system.
People who have tried it say that
one 5-grain tablet taken with each
meal quickly restores depleted ner-
vous energy. enriches the blood, in
creases strength. vitality and en-
durance, and those who are too thin
usually put on pounds OF solid stay
there flesh in a short time. Inas-
much as the owl Drug Company and
Swift Drug Company and all other
druggists are authorized to sell
Blood-1ron Phosphate under a guar
antee OF satisfaction or money back,
every thin, weak. nervous or anaemic
man or woman should give IL a trial
without delay.

that the trouble had been due to
