Marring Eruptions Due to
tion and Dyspepsia.
Memitone Relieves Indigestion
Dyspepsia—Drives Out These
tions— Brings a Rosy Glow to
Cheeks, Giving You a Clean,
lucent, Beautiful Skin.
Pile on all the cold cream and
metics you'like, hut you can’t get
of those liver spots and facial blent
ishes—that sallowness and those oth
er skin eruptions—unless you go
the seat of the trouble, which is
digestion and dyspepsia.
Meritone doubles the suantity of
gestive juices, thereby making the
gestion perfect and complete,
rich, red blood into the veins and thus
properly feeding and nourishing all
parts of the body. To any one suffer¬
ing with despondency, nervousness,
loss of appetite, Joss in weight, didzi
ness, sleeplessness, constipation, bad
taste in mouth, headaches, heart-burn,
heart-palpitation, flatulency, etc., Meri¬
tone brings quick relief.
Meritone is the result of long years
of study by eminent physicians, in
search of a prescription that could be
relied upon for perfecting digestion,
toning up the stomach and giving the
body its proper nourishment.
If you want to eat what you like,
and enjoy it without bad after effects,
to sleep well at night and feel good
all day, get a bottle of Meritone from
Smith’s Drug Store, our agents at Cov¬
ington, with our double guarantee that
you will be pleased or your money re¬
funded.
HAS WINTER
WORN YOU
DOWN?
Sickness That Lingers, or Strain of
Caring for Others, Makes Spring
Days Dangerous
GET BACK YOUR STRENGTH
Red Blood Means Old-Time Vigor, and
Pepto-Mangan Builds Rich,
Red Blood 8
Perhaps you’ve been ill this winter
others in the family have, and
worn yourself out with extra
burdens. And now your strength is
slow to return.
Week after week you’ve felt too
tired for anything, pnd have looked it,
too—color bad, eyes dull, and no en¬
thusiasm.
When you don’t feel well you are
not well. Probably what you need
right now is the good blood' tonic, Pep¬
to-Mangan. Physicians everywhere
recommend Pepto-Mangan for run¬
down, anemic people. Ask your doc¬
tor about it. Pepto-Mangan supplies
the things that blood-starved people
lack. It puts iron and vigor in the
blood. It paints the cheeks in Na¬
ture’s way, and restores the hearty ap¬
petite.
The blood is naturally sluggish in
the Spring and the whole family
would profit by taking Pepto-Mangan,
which tones up and builds up. It is
pleasant-tasting and soon makes you
feej better. Your own druggist has it
ready for your call, and in both liquid
and tablet form, just as you prefer.
But to be certain that you get the
genuine Pepto-Mangan, ask for it by
the full name, “Gude’s Pepto-Mangan.”
Look for the name “Guile’s” on the
package.—Advertisement.
