City Physicians Explains Why
They Prescribe Nuxated Iron
To Make Beautiful, Healthy Women and Strong, Vigorous Men
NOW BEING USED BY OVER THREE MILLION PEOPLE ANNUALLY.
Quiokly Transforms the flabby flesh, lonelaas tissues, and pallid cheeks of we ak, anaemic men and women into a
perfect glow of health and beauty—Often increame the strength of delioate, nervous, run down
folks 100 oar cent, in two weeks' time.
NEW YORK, N. Y It is conserva
tively estimated that, over three mil
ieu people annually iu this country!
alone are taking Nuxated Iron. Such
astonishing results have been reported
from its use by both doctors und lay
men, that a number of physicians In
various parte of the country have been
salted to explain why they prescribe it!
so extensively, and why it apparently!
produces so much better results than 1
wars obtained from the old forms of
inorganic iron.
Extracts from sumo of the letters
received are given below:
Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York
Physician and Medical Author says:
“There can be no vigorous iron
neon without irop. Pallor moans
anemia. Anemia means Iran defici
ency. The skin of anemic men and
women la pale. The flesh flabby. The
muscles lack tone; the brain fags and
the memory falls and often they be
come weak, nervous irritable, de
spondent and melancholy. When the
Iron goes from the blood of women,
the rosea go from their cheeks.
“In the most common foods of Am
erlea the starches , sugars, table
syrupn candles, polished rice, white
bread, soda, crackers, biscuits, mac
aroni, epagetti, tapioca, sago, farina,
degermlnated comment, no longer Is
lroa to bo found. Refining processes
have removed the lroa of Mother
Barth from these impoverished foods,
and silly methods of home cookery,
by throwing down the waste pipe the
water In which our vegetables are
cooked, are responsible for another
grave lroa loss.
“Thsrafors If you wish to preserve
your youthful vim and vigor to a ripe
old ago, you must supply the iron
deficiency la your food by using some
form or organic Iron, Just as you
would use salt when your food has not
enough salt."
Dr. A. J. Nswiuan, late Police Sur
geon of the City of Chicago and form
er House Surgeon, Jefferson Park
Hospital, Chicago, In commenting on
Nuxated Iron, says: “It lias been my
particular duty during the past six
years to assist in keeping Chicago's
five thousand bluecoata In good health
and perfect fighting trim so that they
would bo physically equipped to with
stand all manner of storms and the
ravages of aatural eU—ents.
“Recently I was prompted through
sn endorsement of Nuxated Iron by
Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques, Visiting Sur
geon of St. Eltaahoth's Hospital, New
York, to give It a trial. This remedy
has proven through my own tests of
it to oxssll any preparation I have
ever used for creating rod blood,
bonding up the nerves, strengthening
the muscles and correcting digestive
disorders.”
Dr. E. Sauer, a Boston physician
who has studied widely both In this
country and la great European Medi
cal restitutions says: “As I have gald
a hundred times over, organic iron la
the greatest of all strength builders.
If people would only take Nuxated
Iren when they feel weak and run
gown. Instead of doalng themselves
with habit-forming drugs, stimulants
gad alohoollo beverages I am convinc
ed that in this way they could ward
off disease, preventing it beoamlng or
ganic In thognswds of oases and there
by the lives of thousand! might be

pneumonia, grippe, kidney, liver, heart

Dr. Schuyler ('. Jaques,
Visiting Surgeon of St.
fcJlUabeth’s flospit.il. New
York City, said: ‘I have
never before given out any
medical information or ad
vice for publication as 1
ordinarily do not believe
in it. But i . th«- case of
Xuxated Iron 1 fell 1

not to mention it. I have

by lack of iron in the blood.
"Not long ago a man came to me
who was nearly half a century old and
asked me to give him a preliminary
examination for life insurance. 1 won
astonished to ilud him with the blood
pressure of a boy of twenty and as full
cl' vigor, vim and vitality as a young
man; in fact a young man lie really
was notwithstanding his age. The
secret, he said, was taking iron—
Nuxated Iron hud filled him with re
newed life. At thirty he was in bud
health; at forty-six he was care worn
and nearly all in. Now at 60 after
taking Nuxated Iron, a miracle of vi
tality and his Pace beaming with the
buoyancy of youth. Iron is absolute
ly neccessary to enable your blood
to change food Into living tissue.
Without it no matter how much
or what you eat, your food merely
passes through you without doing
you any good, and as a con
sequence you become weak, pale and
sickly looking. Just like a plant trylni
to grow in a soil deficient in iron. 11
you uri not strong or well, you ow<
it to yourself to make the followina
test: See how long you oan work oi
how far you can walk without be
coming tired. Next take two five
grain tablets of ordinary nux
ated iron three times per day aftei
meals for two weeks. Then test youi
strength again and see how muct
you have gained. I have seen dozen)
of nervous, run,down people who wen

cases been doctoring for months with
out obtaining any benefit.
But don’t take the old forms of re

You must taka irou Ins afonnfhat can b

great strength and endurance mmi
fitted his bleed with iron before hi
went into the affray, while many an
other has gens down, to Inglorious de
feat simply for the lack of Iron.**
a most remarkable ami wonderful ef
I fective remedy.
Dr. 11. B. Vail, formerly Physician
I In the Baltimore Hospital, and a Med
ical Examiner, says: "Throughout iny
experience on Hospital staffs and as
Medical Examiner, i have been aston
ished at the number of patients who
have vainly doctored for various dis
eases when in reality the deli
cate, run-down state was simply the
j result of lack of iron in 'lie blood.
Time und again l have prescribed or
ganic iron—Nuxated Iron—and sur
prised patients at the rapidity with
which the weakness and general de
bility were replaced by a renewed feel
ing of strength and vitality. I took
Nuxated Iron my self to build mo up
luiustion. The effects wore apparent
after a few days and within three
weeks it had virtually revitalized ray
whole system and put me in a superb
physical condition."
NOTE—Nuxated Iron, which is pre
scribed and recommended above by
physicians in such a great variety of
casea, is not a patent medicine nor
secret remedy, but ons which is well
known to druggists and whose iron
oonstttuents are wldsly prescribed by
eminent physicians both in Europe
and la America. Unlike the older in
organic iron products, it Is easily as
similated, does not Injure the teeth,
make them black, nor upset the
stomach; on the contrary, it Is a
moat potent remedy In nearly all
forms of indigestion as well as for
nervous, run-down conditions. The
manufacturers have such great confi
dence In nuxated Iron, that they offer
to forfeit 9109.90 to any charitable In
stitution if they cannot take any man
or woman under <0 who lacks Iron,
and lacrosse their strength 100 per
cent or over In four weeks* time, pro
vided they have no serious organic
treubla They also offer to refund
your money If It doss not at least
double your strength and endurance In
tun days' time. It Is dispensed In this
etty by Inmen Bros., (successors to
Butlor-Maanp ft Co.,) and Hill’s Phar
