Feeling "Run Down?"
11
Just suppose that right now you were talking to a physician.
YOU would have to confess to him that somehow you seem to tire very quickly nowadays; that your energy is gone and that now and then you feel jumpy and irritated.
**Ma deny man!” he would no doubt say, "Look at the symptoms logically. Yours is a clear case of strained nerves We need not go into how you got that way. The climate, hard and nervous work, late nights, they can all be to blame-but you want to know how to become your old self again. Why not start taking Sanatogen—it's really great stuff' It's made just for people like you, and I know from long experience that it will do you a lot of good. You have asked too much from your nerves, and with Sanatogen you replace the lost. (nargy quickly."
וי
Over 25,000 physicians are of、 the opinion that taking Sanat- ogen is the easy and logical way back to real health and vitality. Why not give Sanatogen a
trial? Every chemist sells it. Start taking it now, then you will soon notice its remarkable influence on your health and vitality.
