Weak nerves-and regain new
Of course you would look years younger and feel much stronger, if once your nerves could regain their strength. For irritability and that "run-down" feeling are only a question of nerves. Start taking Sanatogen-famous all over the whole world as the nerve-food. Then you drink in new health and vitality and you soon feel a new flow of life go through your veins.
Gone will be that irritability, that restlessness, that tired feeling--- gone all those troubles such as aleeplessness and lack of appetite. For Sanatogen conquers nerve- weakness, which is the basic cause of your complaints.
Full of energy and cheer, you will enjoy life again, your whole being radiating that youthful health which is the most attractive possession of woman.
Decide to stiut your centreé of Banatogen without delay - get your package to-day.
Vitality
"Although as a rule the fortunate possessor of excel- lent health, there are times when I find myself feeling rather run- down and headachy. At these times Sanatogen proves invalu able, and after a short course of this preparation I am quite fit again, and am able to carry on my work without any feeling of lassitude writes Miss Kathlyn Rhodes,
the well-known authoress.
