Pale, Weak, Ailing People, Can, In Many Cases, Be Bene
fited By the Use Of Ziron Iron Tonic.
BLOOD LACKING IRON CAUSES MANY AILMENTS.
“The Life Extension Institute has shown
that 99 percent of our population is below par”,
declared Prof. Irving Fisher, of Yale University,
in a lecture recently delivered at Pittsburg.
This is an astounding assertion, but when
we look around us and realize the condition
of our health, and how easily we “catch” colds,
and other diseases, we have to acknowledge that
it is only too true 1
What is to be done?
We are shortening our lives by our “low
health-ideals”, as Prof. Fisher says. We ought
to realize that good health and a strong system
is possible to acquire, and we ought to set about
to build up our health to a state of 100 per cent
par.
One of the first things to do. is to see that
your blood contains a sufficiency of that most
important aid to the health—iron.
Iron in the blood makes for ruddy cheeks,
bright eyes, ability to endure hard work without
fatigue, energy, stamina, vitality, nerve and muscle
efficiency. *
Lack of iron makes you easily tired, nervous,
pale, sickly, weak, dyspeptic, irritable, unable to
eat, sleep or*work in a normal way. It renders

resulted from influenza and its com
plications.
The announcement states that since
war was declared the strength of the
army in animals has been increased
from 66,145 to 334,000 and the vet
erinary corps and remount service
have also been greatly increased. The
personnel of the veterinary corps
alone has jumped from 64 officers and
no enlisted men to about a thousand
officers and enlisted men are being
the “catching” diseases the world is full of.
The remedy for lack of iron in the blood is
to take ZIRON, the new Iron Tonic, which con
tains the ingredients prescribed by eminent physi
cians for this condition, prepared in a pleasant
and agreeable, non-alcoholic syrup, and is ob
tainable at all first-class drug stores, with or
without a physician’s prescription.
All the symptoms described above have been
benefited by the use of ZIRON, according to the
testimony of men and women who have used it.
Mr. W. Y. Rhodes, R. F. D. No. 1, Hulbert,
Okla., i$ one who has written us about the good
results he obtained in his case by the use of
ZIRON. He says: “I have taken ZIRON with
great benefit. It gave me new life and strength.
I feel like anew man. I am 65 years old, but
am able to work every day now, and feel 20
years younger. I was afflicted with rheumatism,
iTeuralgia and kidney trouble, but I don’t feel
any pains now. I am grateful to the new life
giving qualities of ZIRON, and the new energy
it gave me.”
ZIRON enriches your blood, helps to in
crease the red corpuscles, and thereby to in
crease your health and energy. Try ZIRON.
Your druggist sells it. If the first bottle fails fo
benefit, yob get your money back. Z. L. 6.
