No more nerves?

Not since I started with SANATOGEN

Nervousness, 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 organism 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 system.

Prof. Tobuld, a well-known European authority, wrote:

"Those who are suffering from servous" weakness will soon regain their farmer strength and joy of Kfë.”

Try Sanatogen at once. Buy it to-day and see how quickly Health and Vitality return.
