Feeling "Run Down!".
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 izitated.
"My dear man!" he would no doube say, “look at the symptoms logically. Yours is a clear case of strained nerves. We need not ge 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 Sandtogen--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 serves, and with Sanatogen you replace the lost energy quickly.”
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 Sanamgen a
trial? Every chemist sells it. Start taking it now, then you will soon notice its remarkable influence as your health and vitality.
