Says Eat Less To Put on Flesh And Get Strong Thin weak, nervous wrecks, who want to put 'i flesh, get strong and tine, can aln „st invariably do so in two or three weeks by taking with each meal a 5-grain tablet of the great French nerve and blood build er known among druggists here as Blood-Iron Phosphate. Big eaters are often thin as a rail simply because the food they eat is not assimilated. Ulood-Irnn Phosphate, by strengthen ing the nervous system and enrich ing the blood, promotes the normal activity of those vital organs upon which the processes of assimilation and metabolism depend, thus enabling you to make use of the very last bit of nourishment from the food that you eat. If you don't feel well, if you tire easily, don't sleep well or are too thin, go to Geo. A. Gorgas or any other good druggist and get enough Hlond-lron Phosphate for a three weeks' treatment —it costs only 50 cents a week —and take as directed. Eat less, chew youy food thoroughly, and if at the end of three weeks, you don't feel stronger and better than you have for months; if your eyes aren't brighter and your nerves steadier; if you don't sleep better, and your vim, vigor, endurance and vital ity aren't more than doubled, the druggist will return your money for the asking and Blood-Iron Phosphate will cost you nothing.
