myself with excellent results. There are
thousands of delicate. nervous. rundown
folks. who need just such a preparation as
this but do not know what to take. There
fore ! have urgently suggested the wide
spread publication Of the sworn statement
OF the composition Of its formula so that
the public may know what they are taking.
This complete formula is now to be found
in newspapers throughout the country. IL
is composed principally of organic iron in
the form of iron peptonate Of a special spe-
cine standard and glycerophsophates which is
one of the most costly tonic ingredients
known. To the credit Of the manufacture
crs it may be said that they use the most
expensive form of iron peptonate, whereas
by employing other makes they could have
put the same quantity Of actual iron in the
tablets at less than one-fourth the cost and
by using metallic iron they could have re-
dueed the cost to less than o~ne-twelfth. but
by thus cheapening the product they would
undoubtedly have impaired its therapeutic
efficacy. In my opinion a careful examina.
ton Of this formula by any physician or
pharmacist should c%onviree him that Nux-
ated Iron is to be placed among the very
highest class and most strictly ethical prep
a~rations known to medical science. II ex-
cells anything ! have ever used for building
up the system and increasing the red blood
corpuscles thereby enriching and terrifying
the blood against the Eavages OF disease.

nothing to distract the voters mind

Under our present form Of govern

at stake. For instance, this year we
elect a President. The big fight will
be waged over the head of the ticket
