WHY YEAST
BUILDS FLESH
Thousands Stay Thin on Ordinary
Foods, Because They Lack
Vitamines-Now Obtaina-
BILE In Tablet Form

No matter how heartily we eat, if
certain all-important elements, call
ed vitamines, are lacking in our diet,
We will be under-nourished. Only in
the last few years have these ele-
ments been known, and now scientists
recognize that nearly all cases of
anemia, neurasthenia symptoms and
rundown condition are simply due
to lack of vitamines in the body.
Nearly all modern foods contain very
few vitamines. And yet we must
have constant supply of these mir
aculous little organisms which alone
are so essential to health and vital
ity. And now it has been discovered
that small quantity of ordinary
yeast, taken regularly, will supply all
the vitamines needed for glowing
health. Added to the diet, yeast
makes old people younger, restores
energy and normal weight to the thin
and rundown, and has a wonderfully
beneficial effect on growing children.
Yeast also clears up bad, pimrly COM
plexions and banishes boils.
'"The Miracle of Yeast" is still a
new thing to most people, but yeast
amazing value as health-buiIder has
been proved beyond doubt by num-
berless experiments in great medical
institutions. The real problem of
scientists has been to obtain just the
correct form of yeast. This is known
to be brewers yeast The common
yeast cake is ineffective because it is
only about 209o yeast and the rest
starch and water.
At last the perfect yeast combina-
ton, highest in vitamine-strength,
has been worked out by famous
chemists. 1t is a concentrated
yitamine tablet prepared from
brewers yeast and certain
reliable tonics such as iron, which
increase the effect of yeast itself
These tablets are called IRONIZED
YEAST and are sold by nearly all
druggists. IRONIZED YEAST tab
lets are the approved vitamine tonic
treatment, put up in convenient size
to carry in the pocket. They are
pleasant to take and do not nauseate
IRONIZED YEAST tablets cost but
a trif1e more to the dose than com
mon yeast and are much more effec
tive. Each package contains II
days treatment and costs only $1.0C
or only loo day Try a package
today. You will notice the benefit
before you finish the first few days
treatment. Special directions fol-
children's use are in each package.
