Doctor Say* Ordinary Nuxated Iron)
Will Make Nervous Rundown Peo
ple 100% Stronger in Two
Week’s Time in Many
Ca.v .
NEW YOltK, *N. Y.—"One glance
Is enough to tell which people have
iron in their blood," said Dr. E. Sauer,
a Boston physician who has studied
widely both In this country and
in Great European medical institu
tions, in a recent discourse. They are
the ones that do and dare. The others
arc in the weakling class. Sleepless
nights spent worrying over supposed
ailments, constant dosing with habit
forming drugs and narcotics for ner
vous weakness, stomach, liver or kid
ney disease and useless attempts to
brace up with strong coffee or other
stimulants are what keep them suffer
ing and vainly longing to be strong.
Their real troublj is lack of Iron in the
blood. Without iron the blood has no
power to change food Into living tis
sue and therefore, nothing you eat
does you any good,; you don't get the
strength out of It. The moment Iron
Is supplied the multitude cf danger
ous symptoms disappear. I have seen
dozens of nervous, rundown people
who are ailing all the time, double
and even triple their strength and en
durance and entirely get rid of every
I sign of dyspepsia, liver and other
; trouble In from ten to fourteen days’
j time simply by taking iron In the
| proper form. And thla, after they had
i in some cases been doctoring for
I month without any benefit.
If you are not strong or well you
owe it tu yourself to make lire follow
ing test: Sue how long you can work
or how far you can walk withcut be
coming tired. Next take two five
grain tablets of ordinary nuxated iron
three times per day after meals for
two weeks. Than test your strength
again and see for yourself how much
you have gained. There is nothing
like good old iron to put color in your
cheeks and sound, healthy rlesh on
your bones. But you must take iron
in a form that can be easily absorbed
and assimilated like nuxated iron 1
you want it to do you any good,
otherwise it may prove worse than
; useless.
NOTE—Nuxated Iron recommended
above by Dr. JO. Sauer, is one of the
newer organic iron compounds. Un.
like the older Inorganic iron products,
it is easily assimilated, does not in
jure the teeth, make them black, nor
upset the stomach; on the contrary, it
is a most potent remedy, i.i nearly
all forms of indigestion, s well us for
nervous, run-down conditions. The
Manufacturers have such greut confi
dence in Nuxated Iron that they of
fer to forfeit $100.00 to any charitable
institution if they cannot take any man
or woman under 00 who lacks iros
and increase their strength 100 per
cent or over In four weeks’ time pro
vided they have no serious organic
trouble. They also offer to refund
your money if it does not at least
double your strength and endurance In
ten days’ time. It Is dispensed in this
