 ZIRON, the compound iron preparation IS the remedy to take when your plooa Aeeus help, by reason of it's lack of iron.
 Among the eminent physicians who are m accord as to the need of the system for iron, under certain conditions of anemia, general weakness, etc., may be mentioned Dr. George F. Butler, A. M., Ph. G., M. D., formerly Fro lessor and Head of the Department of Ihera- peutics, and Professor of Preventive and Clln- ical Medicine, of the Chicago College of Medl- cine and Surgery. In his "Text Book of Ma teria Medica," Dr. Butler says of iron that it IS "a valuable stomachic tonic," and that tits prl- mary effect is to supply deficiency of red corpuscles, and bring the hemoglohin up to its normal standard"
 nr. Finley Ellington late Professor of. Ma teria Medica and Therapeutics in Bennett Med ical College, Chicago, in his book, American Materia Medical" says: By the improvement of the blood and the increased supply of oxy- gen to the tissues, occasioned by the admins tration of iron when this agent is deficient, the nervous system is directly influenced in most favorable manner. There is increased strength and greatly augmented power to resist dis ease"

Eminent Physicians Agree That Iron Is Valuable Agent
 I'm Certain Forms of Disease ZIRON NOT A PATENT OR SECRET REMEDY

Dr. Hobart Amory Hare, Professor of Thera- peutics in the Jefferson Medical College of Philadelphia, in his book, "A Text Book of Practical Therapeutics" says 'Iron has lit tie Or no effect upon the system when given in a single dose, but repeated doses cause an in- crease in the number of red blood corpuscles, and plethora, or an increase in the quantity and quality of the blood.' <
 ZIRON Iron Tonic, composed of pure iron salts, combined with the hypophosphites of lime and soda, and other valuable tonic and al- terative ingredients,-as specified on the label of every bottle,-is not patent medicine or secret remedy but perfected pharmaceutical preparation, of great value and genuine merit in the treatment of conditions due to lack of iron in the blood, such as are described above.
 If you are weak, debiltated, lacking in en- ergy, feel worn out, and suffer from loss of ap- petite, dyspepsia, nervousness, irritability; if you are pale and wish to obtain the rosy cheeks that show the presence of iron in your blood, try ZIRON Iron Tonic, for ZIRON will furnish the iron that the impoverished system lacks.

Sunday evening, an unusually large
audience being present. Special
music, consisting of anthems, ap-
