"The results of diminished nerve-force comprise headache, loss of sleep, indi gcition, easily induced fatigue, disin clination for bodily or mental exertion, loss of memory and a lack of vigour in all physical functions.

These are the words of Da. CLAUDE L. WHEELER, the well-known scientist. They prove what Sanatogen will do for you. And remember that DR. WHEELER is only one of 24,000 physicians who tried Sanatogen and wrote to the makers about the splendid results obtained...
