New York, N. Y. Most people fool ishly seem to think they are going to get renewed health and strength from some stimulating medicine, secret nos trum or narcotic drug, bald Dr. Sauer, a well known specialist who has studied widely both in this country and Europe when, as a matter of fact, real and true strength can only come from the food you eat. But people often fatl to get the strength out of their food because they haven't enough Iron In their blood to enable It to change food into living matter. From their weakened, nervous condition they know something is wrong, but they can't tell what, so they generally commence doc toring for stomach, liver or kidney trouble or symptoms of some other ail ment caused by the lack of Iron In the blood. This thing may go on for years, while the patient suffers untold agony. If you. are not strong or well you owe It to yourself to make the following test: See how long you can work or bow far you can walk without becom ing tired. Next take two five grain tablets of ordinary mutated Iron three times per day after meals for twO week a; Then test your strength again and see for yourself bow much you bava gained.
