Yet the great never-say-die spirit of the champion (or rather ex-champlon) never fagged. He chased all sorts and conditions of shots and he was practically run off his feet at the end, he nevertheless gave the new cham~ plon lots of work too.
Comparison of the first set with the other three shows an amazing fluctuation of form.

No more nerves?
Not since I started with® SANATOGEN
Nervouset, fatigue, forgetfulness and many other symptoms often hamper the full enjoy- ment of life. You can become fit and healthy again with a course of Sanatogen.
Sanatogen contains just those elements which give new health and energy to the run-down organises in a very digestible form. It strength- ens the nerves, renews the red blood cells and thus gives new strength and stamina to the whole systemi.
Prof. Tobold, a well-known
European authority, wrote:
*Those who dra suffering from neTUOUS weakness will soon regain their former strength and joy of life."
Try Sanatogen at once. Buy it co-day and se how quickly Health and Vitality return.
