tanned in modern foods, Physicians
claim there is nothing that will sup

organic phosphate known among

son & Co. in Keokuk and most all
druggists under a guarantee of salts

the nerves directly and by supplying
the body cells with the necessary
phosphoric food elements, bitro-phos-
phate should produce welcome trans'

astonishing.
Increase in weight also carries

health. Nervousness, sleeplessness
and lack of energy, which nearly al
ways accompany excessive thinnesS

was once thin and frail, reporting
her own experience, writes: "Bitro
Phosphate has brought about magic

Dangerous

says Doctor Connor formerly of Johns
Hopkins hospital Thousands of men
suffering from fatal diseases would be
in perfect health today were 1t not for
the deadly drug Nicotine. Stop the
habit now before it's too late It's a
simple process to rid yourself of the
tobacco habit in any form. Just go
to any up-to-date drug store and get
some Nicotol tablets; take them as
directed and 10; the pernicious habit
quickly vanishes. Druggists refund the
money if they fail. Be sure to read
large and interesting announcement
by Doctor Conner soon to appear in
this paper 1t tells Of the danger of
nicotine poisoning and how to avoid
1t. In the meantime try Nicotol tab
lets; you will be surprised at the re
