Irvington Park Is sightly; is as perfectly
adapted for home building as though Nature
had intended it for the particular-purpose. To
the advantages that Nature has already placed
in Irvington Park, we have added the multi
tude of city conveniences, without which a
modern residence section is an undesirable
place to live. We have installed city water,
a streetcar line is about to be tuilt to the cen
ter of the park, electric lights and telephones
are ready to be connected, the streets are grad
ed, cement sidewalks laid and curbs in. Every
thing is waiting for you to make op your mind
to build your home right there. There are
scores of excellent reasons why you should
build your new home in Irvington Park. We
merely ask you to call at our office and learn
what they are.

Nature's Food
FOR. WEAK NERVES
If your nerves are weak they need
energy nourishment. Drugs don't
give that.
The man who tries to cure a ner
vous ailment by doping the stomach
with drugs is working against na
ture. Drugs poison the nerves de
crease their energy. What the
nerves want la nourishment some
thing that gives new power. Elec
tricity is nature'a food for the
nerves. It's the power that runa the
human machine. Nearly every ail
ment can be traced to a lack of
electric energy. When the body has
a full supply of this force there can
be no pain or sickness.
Electro-Vigor pumps a stream of
electric life Into the nerves while
you sleep. It fills them with new
energy new vim. It removes the
cause of pain and sickness by giving
to every organ and tissue the force
which builds health.
Electro-Vigor is an electrlo body
battery, which makes its own power
and la always ready for use.
It is not an electric belt and re
quires no charging.
Electro-Vigor does not shock or
blister. The only sensation Is a
soothing glow, which quiets the
nerves and Induces sleep. I give a
free test to those who call.
Every mall brings letters of praise:
Since using your Electro-Vigor I
am wonderfully Improved in health.
It has made my back strong and I
am not bothered with nervousness.
