ANATOGEN

SANATOGEN

To keep you Healthy and Vigorous.

We. Europeans, after all, were met born to endure great heat; Nature did not intend us to live in such hot climates.

That is why we all suffer so much at this time. of the year why we feel languid, depressed, irritable, and so easily fall victims to illness. And that is why our bodies need specially in- vigorating just now, to enable us to support the abnorinai strain and to resist the attacks of disease.

There is nothing better for this purpose than a course of Sauatogen. Taken regularly, thrice daily, for a few weeks, it will produce a remark. able improvement in your general health, and especially in the health of your nervous system.

You will be better able to endure the heat,

and to work with energy; your appetite ad digestion will improve you will sleep soundly even on the hottest nights, and you will get rid of that "nervey," Irritable feeling which is so distressing to oneself and others.

Moreover, you will be much less liable to stiffer from fevers, boils, liver affections, dysentery, and other stomach and bowel com. plaints, owing to the fact that Sanatogen greatly increases those vital elements of the blood whose function it is to destroy, attacking disease germs.

Start Sanatogen To-day."

---j--=

Just try Samatogen, and you will soon be as enthusi- astic about it as are the writers of the accompanying letters and many thousands of Europeans in the Rest who take Saratogen naa matter of course, year by year, when the hot seasolt sets In.

***Do not let your health be undermined by the beat a day longer, but go to the nearest Chenilat and buy a bottle of Sanatogen. One bottle will make a keen convert of you!
