1t is surprising how many people

two five-grain tablets of Nuxated Iron

two weeks Then test your strength
again and see how much you have
gained.

to druggists. Unlike the older inor-

good health and plenty of iron in

attractiveness as to defy detection
of her real age.
That women may become stronger,
healthier. more beautiful and better
able to meet the cares of home. social
and business life by increasing the
supply of iron in their blood is the
opinion of DR.. George II. Bak-
er, formerly Physician and Surgeon
of Monmouth Memorial Hospital, New
Jersey. who says: What women need
springtime of life into their step is
not cosmetics or stimulating drugs,
but plenty of rich, pure red blood.
