health. The remedy I offer you will serve you faithfully with
out danger.
use: no drugs
During my early years of practice 1 gave prescriptions to
weak men. I know better now. For thirty years I have been
treating these peculiar nervous symptoms which result from
youthful errors or later excesses, such as drains, impotency,
lame back, varicocele, etc. From so vast an experience I can
usually offer men, single or married, valuable advice. Reader,
I wish it was in my power to show every weak man what
wonderful resuits I am getting from my famous appliance, the
Dr. Sanden Electric Belt
and suspensory attachment. It is a never failing restorer of
strength if used properly.
You may believe when I show you 6,000 unsolicited testi
monials of absolute cures names and addresses received dur
ing 1H99. This belt is the result of patient years of study. It
developed from a portable chain battery I invented twenty-five
changes, until today it embodies the best features of all electrical appliances,

A few years ago, when 10 cents a pound
seemed a high prke for cupper, it was
commonly supposed that a continued high
market tor the metal would inevitably re
sult in over ptoductlon and a sharp fall in
prices. I he event has proved, however,
the eiror of this view, l-or many months
now the prue of copper has ranged so
