Sauer, Author of Medical Arti cles on Public Health Contrary to general opinion, a weak, nervous condition is always dangerous. Without Iron, your blood soon loses Its oxygen-carrying power and can no longer purify itself, in consequence of which poisons accumulate which weaken both your body and brain, make you extremely nervous and irri table, pale and anaemic, often cause fits of great despondency, and under mine all your vital organs, leading to the development of dangerous dis eases which have landed many a man end woman into an untimely grave. In such cases it is worse than useless to take stimulants and narcotic drugs, which "pick you up" for the moment, maybe at the expense of your life later on. What you need is a true blood food—lron. "A man of blood and iron" has always been synonymous with great power, showing that for cen turies physicians have well known and prized the great value of iron. The only trouble has been that the older forms of iron often upset the stomach rnd were so difficult to assimilate that they usually actually got Into the biood, but with late discoveries of newer preparations of iron all this trouble has been entirely removed. Nuxated Iron, for example. Is easily assimilated and does not disturb the stomach: on the contrary, It aids diges tion. Two five-grain tablets taken three times per day after meals will quickly put renewed health and vigor into any weak, nervous man or woman ■And give you the kind of strength that "stays there. E. Sauer. M. D. Note: The publication of the above article is authorized by the Garfleld Public Health Laboratories. It is de sired x to instruct people to become strong and healthy without the use of dangerous drugs and stimulants which are so often taken to "brace one up." Upon Inquiry it is learned that Nuxated Iron is carried in stock by Kennedy and other leading druggists In this city.—Advertisement. STOP COUGHING ! !! DEPTONOI? | MADE IN A HEALTH RESORT.
