Easily induced fatigue, distaste for work, difficulty in-concentration, lack of appetite, fitful sleep, loss of weight- all these may be signals that something is wrong with the nervous system. The only logical way to overcome these complaints is to go to the root of the trouble-the nerves. 'Strengthen those nerves with Sanatogen-the finest tanic food obtainable.
