IT'S A MATTER OF
RED BLOOD CELLS
Pepto-Mangan Makes Rich, Red
Blood-Builds Up People
Who Lack Vitality
IT'S A MATTER OF
RED BLOOD CELLS

If your body is sound and your
blood is rich and red, your acts and
thoughts will be quick and strong.
Let your blood get weak and your
food won't nourish you nor your sleep
refresh you.
Too much hard work, an illness, or
mental strain can thin down your
blood, and Pepto-Mangan is needed
to bring it back to healthy, normal
condition.
Knowing this, doctors for years
have recommended GUIDES Pepto-
Mangan because of its blood building
and tonic properties.
Pepto-Mangan is such simple and
harmless tonic, yet such a prompt
builder of red blood, that its reputa-
ton has spread all over the country.
To-day every druggist sells it and
thousands of men and women use it
as a restorative whenever they or
their children seem to feel below par.
Pepto-Mangan agrees with the most
delicate stomach, and is obtainable in
either liquid or tablet form.
Be sure the name Guides" is on
the package when you buy Pepto-
Mangan. Ask the druggist for
"Gude's." If Guides" is not on the
package, it is not Pepto-Mangan.

if anything has ever been placed on
the market in the way of a proprie-

No More Worries Over
Excessive Coal Bills

1t is not generally known that even
the small coal consumer can have his
coal shipped direct from the mines,
thus saving the profits that otherwise
would go to wholesaler and retail
pense. Of course, big manufacturers
and other large consumers have al
ways bought this way, but the man
who buys only enough for his house
hold is now in position to take ad-
vantage of the same purchasing priv
ileges. The well-known BERNICE
COAL CO., 555 Como Building, Chi
cage, is doing an enormous business
in supplying small consumers-as
well as the big ones-with all grades
of hard and soft coal at mine
prices.
That these customers are highly
pleased is evidenced by the letters
they write after receiving and trying
their coal. The following are ex-
tracts from several such letters:
Have found your coal entirely sat-
isfactory and your dealings Courteous
and fair. / shall continue to buy my
coal from you" Ed G. Gereka, Bur

Method Discovered
For Controlling
Summer Disease
Physicians Advising Their Pa.
TENTS To Take Two Grain
Doses of CaIorneI

Physicians are now advising their
patients to begin early in the spring
taking occasional two-grain doses Of
calomel to keep the liver active and
the system pure and clean. Calomel
not only stimulates the flow of bile
but also acts as an intestine anti
septic. This gives the system the
needed power to resist contagious
disease and summer complaints.
The safest and best way to take
calomel is in Axiom Liver Tablets.
Each tablet contains exactly two
grains of pure calomel, combined
with vegetable ingredients which act
as a purge, sweeping the calomel
from the system. 25c box of ~
doses. If Axon Liver Tablets make
you sick or grippe, your druggist will
refund your money. adv
