What Is Nuxated Iron?
Physician Explains—Says Public Ought To Know What They
Are Taking—Practical Advice on What To Do To
Build Up Your Strength, Power and Endurance and
Increase the Red Blood Corpuscles
The fact that Nuxated Iron is today be
ing used by over three million people an
nually and that so many physicians are pre
scribing it as a tonic, strength and blood
Wlllder in weak, nervous, run-down condi
tions has led to an investigation of its
merits by designated physicians and others
whose reports should be of great importance
to the public generally. Among these is the
statement made by Dr. Janies Francis Sul
livan, formerly physician of Bellevue Hos
pital (Outdoor Dept.), New York, and
Westchester County Hospital, who says)
“When one patient after another began ask
ing my opinion of Nuxated Iron, I resolved
to go thoroughly into the subject and find
out for myself whether or not it possessed
the real value claimed by Its manufacturers
\and attested to by so many prominent peo
ple. This is exactly what I believe every
honest, conscientious physician should do
before prescribing or lending his endorse
ment to any product whatsoever. If an ar
ticle is worthless we practitioners ought to
be the first to know of it and if it is effi
cacious we are in duty bound to recommend
it for the welfare of our patients. A study
of the composition of the Nuxated Iron
formula so impressed me with the therapeu
tic efficacy of the product that I imme
diately tested it in a number of obstinate
cases. So quickly did it increase the strength,
energy and endurance of the patients to
Whom it was administered that I became
firmly convinced of its remarkable value as
THE ATLANTA TRI-WEEKLY JOURNAL.
Take a dose of nasty calomel today
and you will feel weak, sick and
nauseated tomorrow. Don’t lose a

will wake up feeling great. No more

a tonic and blood builder. I have since taken
it myself with excellent results. There are
thousands of delicate, nervous, run-down
folks who need just such a preparation as
this but do not know what to take. There
fore I have urgently suggested the wide
spread publication of the sworn statement
of the composition of its formula bo that
the public may know what they are taking.
This complete formula is now to be found
in nswspapers throughout the country. It
is composed principally of organic iron in
the form of iron peptonate of a special spe
cific standard and glycerophosphates which
is one of the most costly tonic ingredients
known. To the credit of the manufactur
ers it may be said that they use the most
expensive form of iron peptonate, whereas
by employing other makes they could have
put the same quantity of actual iron in
the tablets at less than one-fburth the cost
and by. using metallic iron they could have
reduced the cost to less than one-twelfth,
but by thus cheapening the product they
would undoubtedly have impaired its thera
peutic efficacy. In my opinion a careful
examination of this formula by any physi
cian or pharmacist should convince him that
Nuxated Iron is to be placed among the
very highest class and most strictly ethical
preparations known to medical science. It
excels anything I have ever nsed for build
ing up the system and increasing tj>e red

TEXT OF PLATFORM
ADOPTED BY G. 0. P.;
LEAGUE IS FLAYED
(Continued from Pago 1)
Anally, amended the rules of the sen
ate and house, which will reform
evils in procedure and guarantee more
efficient and responsible government.
Agricultural
The farmer- is the backbone of
the nation. National greatness and
economic independence demand a
population distributed between in
dustry and the farm, and sharing
on equal terms the prosperity which
is wholly dependent on the efforts
of both. Neither can prosper at
the expense of the other without in
viting joint disaster.
The crux of the present agricul
tural condition lies in prices, labor
and credit.
The Republican party believes
that this condition can be improved
by practical and adequate farm rep
resentation in the appointment of
governmental officials and commis
sions; the right to form co-operation
associations for marketing their
products, and protection against dis
crimination; the scientific study of
agricultural prices and farm produc
tion costs at home and abroad, with
a view to reducing the frequency
of abnormal fluctuations; the un
censored publication of such reports;
the authorization of associations for
the extensin of personal credit; a
national inquiry on the co-ordination
of rail, motor and water transporta
tion, with adequate facilities for re
ceiving, handling and marketing
food; the encouragement of our ex
port trade; an end to unnecessary
price-fixing and ill-considered ef
forts arbitrarily to reduce prices of
farm products which invariably re
sult to the disadvantage both of pro
ducer and consumer; and the en
couragement of the production and
importation of fertilizing material
and of its extensive use.
The federal farm loan act should
■toe so administered as to facilitate
the acquisition.of farm land by those
desiring to become owners and pro
prietors and thus minimize the evils
of farm tenantry, and to furnish
such long-time credits as farmers
may need to finance adequately their
larger and long-time production op
erations.
Industrial Relations
There are two different conceptions
of the relations of capital and labor.
The one is constructual, and empha
sizes the diversity of interests of
employer and employe. The other
is that of co-partnership in a com
mon task.
We recognize the justice of col
lective bargaining as a means of
promoting good will, establishing
closer and more harmonious relations
between employer and employes and
realizing the true end of industrials
justice. , , , „ „
The strike or the lockout, as a
means of settling industrial dis
putes inflicts such loss and suffering
on the community as to justify gov
ernment initiative to reduce its fre
quency and limit its consequences.
We deny the right to strike against
the government; but the rights ana
interests of all government employes
must be safeguarded by impartial
laws and tribunity.
In public utilities we favor the
establishment of an impartial tri
bunal to make an investigation of
the facts and to render a decision
to the end that there may be no or
ganized interruption of service to the
lives and health and welfare of the
people. The decisions of the tri
bunals to be morally but not legally
binding, and an informed public sen
timent be relied on to secure their
acceptance. The tribunal, however,
should refuse to accept jurisdiction
except for the purpose of investiga
tion, as long as the public service
be interrupted. For public utilities
we favor the type of tribunal pro
vided for in the transportation act
of 1920. a ,
In private industries we do not ad
vocate the principle of compulsory
arbitration, but we favor impartial
commission and better facilities for
voluntary mediation, conciliation ana
arbitration, supplemented by that
full publicity which will enlist the
influence of an aroused public opin
ion. The government should take
the initiative in inviting the estab
lishment of tribunals or commissions
for the purpose of voluntary arbitra
tion and investigation of..this Issue.;
We demand the exclusion froffl in-;
terstate commerce bfthe products, or
convict labor. . , ; t- <
National Economy ■
A Republican congress reduced the
estimates submitted t>Y the admin
istration for the fiscal year al
most $3,000,000,(TOO, add the ftscal
year 1921 over U,?50,<100,000. Great
er economies could have been effected
had it not been for ..the stubborn re
fusal of the administration to co
operate with congress in an economy
propaganda. The universal demand
for an executive budget is a recog
nition of the incontrovertible fact that
leadership and sincere assistance on
the part of the executive departments
are essential to effective economic
and constructive retrenchment.
The Overman act Invested the pres
ident ox the United States with all
the authority and power necessary
to restore the federal government to
a normal peace basis and to reor
ganize, retrench and demobilize. Tne
dominant fact is that eighteen months
after the armistice, the United States
government is still on a war-time
basis, and the expenditure program
of the executive reflects war-time ex
travagance rather than rigid peace
time economy. , „ „
As an example of the failure to
retrench which has characterized the
post-war policy of the administration,
we c te the fact that, not includ.ng
the war and navy departments,
the executive departments and
other establishments at Washington
actually record an Increase subse
quent to the armistice of 2,184 em
ployes. The net decrease in pay roll
costs contained in the 1921 demands
submitted by the administration is
only 1 per cent under that of 1920.
The annual expenses of federal oper
ation can be reduced hundreds of
millions of dollars without impair
ing the efficiency of the public serv
ice. We pledge ourselves to a care
fully planned readjustment to a
peace time basis and to a policy of
rigid economy, to the better co-ordi
nation of departmental activities, to
the elimination of unnecessary of
ficials and employes, and to the rais
ing of the standard of individual ef
ficiency.
Executive Budget
We congratulate the Republican
congress on the enactment of a law
providing for the establishment of
an executive budget as a necessary
instrument for a, sound and business
like administration of the national
finances, and we condemn the veto
of the president, which defeated this
great financial reform.
Reorganization of Bureaus
We advocate a thorough investiga
tion of the present organization of
the federal departments and bureaus,
with a view to securing consolidation,
a more businesslike distribution of
functions, the elimination of duplica
tion, delays and overlapping of work
and the establishment of an up-to
date and efficient administrative or
ganization.
War Powers of President
The president clings tenaciously to
his autocratic war-time powers.
His veto of the resolution declar
ing peace, and his refusal to sign the
bill repealing war-time legislation, no
longer necessary, evidence his de
termination not to restore to the na
tion and to the states the form of gov
ernment provided for by the consti
tution. This usurpation is intoler
able and deserves the severest con
demnation. •
Taxation
The burden of taxation imposed
upon the American people is stag
gering; but in presenting a true
statement of the situation we must
face the fact that, while the charac
ter of the taxes can and should be
changed, an early reduction of the
amount of revenue to be raised is
not to be expected.
The next Republican administra
tion will inherit from its Democratic
predecessor a floating indebtedness of
over $3,000,000,000, the prompt liqui
dation of which is demanded by
sound financial considerations. More
over, the whole fiscal policy of the
government must be deeply influ
enced by the necessity of meeting
obligations in excess of $5,000,000,-
000, which mature in 1923. But
sound policy equally demands the
early accomplishment of that real
reduction of the tax burden which
may be achieved by substituting
simple for complex tax laws and
procedure: prompt and certain deter
mination of the tax liability for de
lay and uncertainty, tax laws which
do not mulct the consumer or need
lessly repress enterprise and thrift.
We advocate the issuance of a
simplified form of income return;
authorizing the treasury department
to make changes in regulations ef
fective only from the date of their
approval; empowering the commis
sioner of internal revenue, with the
consent of the taxpayer, to make fi
nal and conclusive settlements of
tax claims and assessments barring
fraud, and the creation of a tax board
consisting of at least three repre
sentatives of the tax-paying public
and the heads of the principal divi
sions of the bureau of internal reve
nue to act as a standing committee
on the simplification of forms, proce
dure and law, and to make recom
mendations to the congress.
Banking and Currency
The fact is that the war to a
great extent was financed by a policy
of inflation through certificate bor
rowing from the banks and bonds is
sued at artificial rates sustained by
the low discount rates established by
the federal reserve board. The con
tinuance of this policy since the
armistice lays the administration
open to severe criticism. Almost up
to the present time the practices of
the federal reserve board as to cred
it control have been frankly domi
nated by the convenience of the
treasury.
The results have been a great war
cost—a serious loss to the millions
of people who in good faith bought
Liberty Bonds and Victory Notes at
par, and extensive pOst-wai- specu
lation, followed today by a restrict
ed credit for ligitimate industrial
expansion. As a matter of public
policy, we urge all banks to give
credit preferences to essential indus
tries.
The federal reserve system should
be free from political influence,
which is quite as important as its
independence of domination by finan
cial combinations.
The High Cost of Living
The prime cause of the "high cost
of living” has been first and fore
most, a 50 per cent depreciation in
the purchasing power of the dollar,
due to a gross expansion of our cur
rency and credit. Reduced produc
tion, burdensome taxation, swollen
profits, and the increased demand for
goods arising from a fictitious but
enlarged buying power have been
contributing causes in a greater or
less degree.
We condemn the unsound fiscal
policies of the Democratic adminis
tration which have brought these
things to pass and their attempts to
impute the consequences to minor
and secondary causes. Much of the
injury wrought is irreparable. There
is no short way out, and we decline
to deceive the people with vain prom
ises or quack remedies. But as the
political party that throughout its
history has stood for honest money
and sound finance, we pledge our
selves to earnest and consistent at
tack upon the high cost of living by
rigorous avoidance of further infla
tion In our government borrowing, by
courageous and intelligent deflation
of over-expanded credit and currency,
by encouragement of heightened pro
duction of goods and services, by pre
vention of unreasonable profits, by
exercise of public economy and stim
ulation of private thrift and by re
vision of war-imposed taxes to peace
time economy.
Profiteering
We condemn the Democratic ad
ministration for failure impartially
to enforce the anti-profiteering
laws enacted by the Republican
congress.
Railroads
We are opposed to government
ownership and operation or em
ploye operation of the railroads. In
view of the conditions prevailing in
the country, the expenditures of the
last two years and the conclusions
which may be fairly drawn from an
observation of the transportation
systems of other countries, it is
clear that adequate transportation
service both for the present and fu
ture can be furnished more certain
ly, economically and efficiently
through private ownership and op
eration under proper regulation and
control.
There should be no speculative
profit in rendering the service of
transportation; but in order to do
justice to the capital already in
vested in railway enterprises, to re
store railway credit, to induce future
investments at a reasonable rate and
tb furnish enlarged facilities to meet
the, requirements of the constantly
ifttefqa'Affig development and distri
■bUt-iotua -Mir return upon actual
VaHjie Os tfiS railway property used in
transportation should be made rea
feyhably* Sure and at the same time
to ' provide constant employment to
those engaged in transportation serv
ice wjtl) fair hours and favorable
working conditions at wages or com
pensation at least equal to those
prevailing in similar lines of in
dustry.
We indorse the transportation act
of 1920 enacted, by the Republican
congress as a most conservative leg
islative achievement.
Waterways
We declare it to be our policy to
encourage and develop water trans
portation service and facilities in
connection with the commerce of
the United States.
Regulation of Industry
We approve in general the existing
federal legislation against monopoly
and combinations in restraint of
trade, but since the known certainty
of a law is the safest of all, we ad
vocate such amendment as will pro
vide American business men with
better means of determining in ad
vance whether a proposed combina
tion is or is not unlawful. The fed
eral trade commission, under a Dem
ocratic administration, has not ac
complished the purpose for which it
was created. This commission, prop
erly organized and its duties efficient
ly administered, should afford pro
tection to the public and legitimate
business interests. There should be
no persecution of honest business,
but to the extent that circumstances
warrant, we pledge ourselves to
strengthen the law against unfair
practices.
We pledge the party to an imme
diate resumption of trade relations
with every nation with which we
are at peace.
International Trade and Tariff
The uncertain and unsettled con
ditions of international balances
and the abnormal economic and trade
situation of the world, and the im
possibility of forecasting accurately
even the near future, preclude the
formulation of a definite program to
meet conditions a year hence. But
the Republican party reaffirms its
belief in the protective principle, and
pledges itself to a revision of the
tariff as soon as conditions shall
make it necessary for the preserva
tion of the home market for Ameri
can labor, agriculture and industry.
Merchant Marine
The national defense and our for
eign commerce require a merchant
marine of the best type of modern
ships flying the American flag,
manned by American seamen, owned
by private capital and operated by
private energy.
We indorse the sound legislation
recently enacted by the Republican
congress that will insure the pro
motion and maintenance of the Amer
ican merchant marine.
We favor the application of the
workmen’s compensation acts to the
merchant marine.
We recommend that all ships en
gaged in coastwise trade and all ves
sels of the American merchant ma
rine shall pass through the Panama
canal without premium of tolls.
Immigration
The standard of living and the
standard of citizenship are its most
precious possessions and the preser
vation and elevation of these stand
ards is the first duty of our govern
ment. -xx.
The immigration policy of . the
United States should be such as to
insure that the number of foreign
ers in the country at any pne time
shall not exceed that Which can be
assimilated with reasonable rapidity,
and to favor immigrants whose
standards are similar to ours.
The selective tests that are at
present applied could be improved by
requesting a higher physical stand
ard, a more complete exclusion of
mental defectives and of criminals
and of a more effective inspection
applied as near the source of immi
gration as possible as well as at the
port of entry. Justice to the for
eigner and to ourselves demands pro
visions for the guidance, protection
and better economic distribution of
our alien population. To facilitate
government supervision, all aliens
should be required to register annu
ally until they-become naturalized.
The existing policy of the United
I States for the practical exclusion of
NEARLY 5,000,000
RECOMMENDED FOO
BAPTISTMJSSIONS
Appropriations totalling $2,824,727
for home mission activites were rec
ommended Thursday to the home
mission board of the Southern Bap
tist convention by special subcommit
tees named to investigate the needs
of each department. The board is
holding its annual meeting at the
First Baptist church for the purpose
of mapping out the definite program
of work for the next twelve months.
With the recommendations of the
various committees before it, the
whole membership of the board was
busy Thursday considering the ap
propriations asked for the various
departmental activities. The recom
mendations are not final, but must
be approved by the general board
before they become operative. It
was stated by several members of
the board that in all probability the
total amount would be reduced some
what by the board, but that the total
amount of money spent this year for
home mission work would considera
bly exceed $2,000,000.
The fact that almost $3,000,000 has
been asked for home mission work
this year against approximately sl,-
600,000 last year was taken by board
members to indicate a tremendous
increase in mission interest on the
part of southern Baptists. Particu
larly is this true with regard to
church building, for which the sub
committee has recommended an ap
propriation of $776,250. This is the
largest sum ever asked for in this
department, just as the grand total
is the largest that has ever been ask
ed of the home board. (

Follow Usual Policy
The general board, which opened
its meeting on Wednesday, followed
its established policy of allowing all
requests for financial aid to be made
before subcommittees, which thresh
ed out details. The committees
worked Wednesday afternoon and
night, presenting their reports
Thursday morning, so that the full
board might consider the matter and
conclude its session by Thursday
night.
Every state in the Southern Bap
tist convention is represented in the
membership of the board, while the
local board, with Dr. B. D. Gray as
corresponding secretary, acts as a
sort of executive committee in the
administration of the general pro
gram.
Asiatic immigrants is sound, and
should be maintained.
Naturalization
There is urgent need of improve
ment in our naturalization law. No
alien should become a citizen until
he has become genuinely American
and tests for determining the alien’s
fitness for American citizenship
should be provided for by law.
We advocate in addition the inde
pendent naturalization of married
women. An American woman should
not lose her citizenship by marriage
to an alien resident in the United
States.
Free Speech and Alien Agitation
We demand that every American
citizen shall enjoy the ancient and
constitutional right of free speech,
free press and free assembly and
the no less sacred right of the qual
ified voter to be represented by his
duly chosen representatives; but no
man may advocate resistance to the
law, and no man may advocate vio
lent overthrow of the government.
Aliens within the jurisdiction of
the United States are not entitled of
right to liberty of agitation direct
ed against the government or Amer
ican institutions.
Every government has the power
to exclude and deport these aliens
who constitute a real menace to its
peaceful existence. But in view of
the large number of people affected
by the immigration acts and in view
of the vigorous malpractice of the
departments of justice and labor, an
adequate public hearing before a com
petent administrative tribunal should
be assured to all.
Lynching
We urge congress to consider the
most effective means to end lynch
ing in this country, which continues
to be a terrible blot on our Amer
ican citizenship.
Law and Order
The equality of all citizens under
the law has always been a policy of
the Republican party.
Without obedience to law and main
tenance of order, our American in
stitutions must perish. Our laws
must be impartially enforced and
speedy justice should be secured.
Public Roads and Highways
We favor liberal appropriations in
co-operation with the states for the
construction of highways, which will
bring about a reduction in transpor
tation costs, better marketing of
farm products, improvement in rural
postal delivery, as well as meet the
needs of military defense.
In determining the proportion of
federal aid for road construction
among the states, the sums lost in
taxation to the respective states by
the setting apart of large portions
of their area as forest reservations,
should be considered as a controlling
factor.
Conservation is a Republican pol
icy. It began with the passage of
the reclamation act signed by Presi
dent Roosevelt. The recent passage
of the cbal, oil and phosphate leas
ing bill by a Republican congress
and the enactment of the water pow
er bill fashioned in accordance with
the same principle, are consistent
landmarks in the development of the
conservation of our national re
sources. We denounce the refusal
of the president to sign the water
power bill passed after ten years of
controversy. The Republican party
has taken an especially honorable
part in saving our national forests
and in the effort to establish a na
tional forest policy. Our most press
ing conservation question relates
to our forests. We are using . our
forest resources faster than they are
being renewed. The result is to
raise unduly the cost of forest prod
ucts to consumers and especially
farmers, who use more than half
the lumber produced in America and
in the end to create a timber famine.
The federal government, the states
and private interests must unite in
advising means to meet the men
ace.
Reclamation
We favor a fixed and comprehen
sive policy of reclamation to increase
national wealth and production.
We recognize in the development
of reclamation through federal ac
tion with its increase of production
and taxable wealth a safeguard for
the nation.
We commend to congress a policy
to reclaim lands and the establish
ment of a fixed national policy of
development of natural resources in
relation to reclamation through the
now designated government agen
cies.
The Service Men
We hold in imperishable remem
brance the valor and the patriotism
of the soldiers and sailors of Amer
ica who fought in the great war for
human liberty, and we pledge our
selves to discharge to the fullest the
obligations which a grateful nation
justly should fulfill, in appreciation
of the services rendered by its de
fenders on sea and on land.* '
Republicans are not ungrateful.
Throughout their history they have
shown their gratitude toward the
nation’s defenders. Liberal legisla

opinion of officials here, following
final tabulation of returns from the
election of reichstag members. On
the basis of these figures it was de
clared there was little possibility of
a government’s being formed which
would function in a manner to in
sure internal order and world peace.
The only ray of hope for those
who hold the nation’s interest at
heart lay in the bare chance that the
Volkspartei may reach a compromise
on questions with which its mem
bers and the Socialist factions have
so far strongly differed.
Some members of the Majority
Socialist party, which scored a heavy
victory in the elections, declared
there was a chance that the Volks
partei would abandon many of its
militaristic principles, and that in
this event a coalition of the two par
ties might be effected.
Revised official election returns
showed the Majority Socialists will
have 110 members, Independent So
cialists 80, Centrists 67, Nationalists
65, Volkspartei 61, Democrats 45, Ba

Possibility of a rapprochement be
tween the ultra monarchist factions
and the Moderate Socialists also was
discussed. It was believed should
this be effected, the militarists would
dominate the government, and the
move would be fought by the So-

Little Hope for
Suffrage in Louisiana
BATON ROUGE, La., June 10.—
From the vote which it received in
the senate today there are ample in
dications that the Upton state rights
suffrage measure would be killed.
By a vote of 22 to 18 the senate
allowed the Upton bill, which had pre
viously passed the house, to be re
turned to the calendar, but as the
measure is a constitutional amend
ment it takes twenty-eight votes to
pass it in the senate. Six more votes
will, therefore, have to be secured
before the measure can be passed.

BIG STOCK FARMER
NOW 1 WELL MIN
A. H. Emerson Says Tanlac
Built Him Right Up After
Having A Bad Case Os
The Flu, Which Left Him
In Awful Bad Shape.
“I have taken only one bottle of
Tanlac, but it has done me more
good than all the other medicines I
have taken put together,” said A. H.
Emerson when he called at Guppy’s
Drug Store, Portland, Me., the other
day. Mr. Emerson lives near West
Scarboro, Me., where he owns and
operates one of the largest stock
farms in that section of the country.
“After I got up from the flu last
winter I was in mighty bad shape,”
he continued. “I was not only in a
weakened, debilitated condition, but
I also suffered awfully with indiges
tion. My stomach was so weak I
could hardly digest anything and
could hardly bear the sight of food,
much less eat anything. As I was
not able to eat any nourishing food
I kept getting worse and worse and
I was badly discouraged over my
condition as it looked like I would
never get my strength back again.
My nerves were all upset and my
sleep was broken and irregular. I
felt tired and wornout from morning
until night and could hardly drag
one foot after the other.
“I took many different kinds of
medicine, but nothing did me a par
ticle of good until I began taking
Tanlac. As I said before, I have
taken only one bottle, but it has
made such a remarkable change in
my condition I feel like a different
person altogether. My appetite is
splendid now and I can eat anything
I want and as much as I want with
out the slightest touch of indiges-
LOOK AT YOUR TONGUE!
IS IT BROAD, WHITE, FLABBY? 5
-YOUR BLOOD NEEDS ZIRON!
When Your Tongue Is White and Flabby, It Is a Sign
That You Are Anemic and That Your Blood
Needs Ziron Iron Tonic, For the Benefit
of Your Weakened System.
Look at your tongue in the mirrorl
It ought to be pointed, pink, clean and firm.
If it is broad, white, coated, flabby, it is probably a sign that you
are anemic, that your blood lacks red corpuscles, that you are not in
good health, that your system needs iron to bring l it up to proper con
dition.
When your blood needs iron, take Ziron, the new Iron Tonic, which
contains also the hypophosphites of lime and soda and other valuable
tonic ingredients prescribed by the best physicians for this form of
trouble.
When you feel tired and miserable, lack ambition, suffer from indi
gestion, rheumatic pains, gastric catarrh, depression of spirits and a
general feeling of being “under the weather,” why not try Ziron to help
you back to health?
Ziron, the new compound of Iron, contains no habit-forming drugs.
It is a safe, reliable tonic remedy—good for men, women and children,
Read what Mr. L, M. Sanders, of R. F. D. No. 5, Honey Grove-,
Texas,..says.: “I was weak, dragging around the house, and afraid I was
going to be real sick. I had no appetite; did not rest, and then my
back began to hurt. It got me down. I felt 1 must do something to
strengthen me. 1 heard of ZIRON, and thought it must be what I
needed. Shortly after I began taking 1 could see that it helped me. I
felt stronger. I began to eat and sleep. I was really hungry. It helped
me a lot. When my wife got puny, I sent for a bottle for her, and she
likewise improved so much that we are believers in ZIRON.”
SPECIAL OFFER: Buy a bottle of ZIRON, today, at your drug
gist’s and give it a fair trial, according to directions on the bottle. If,
after using up one bottle, you find it has not benefited you, take the

The liver is the largest and most
important organ in the body, and
when the liver refuses to act, it
causes constipation, biliousness,
headaches, indigestion, gas, sour
stomach, bad breath, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains in back and under
shoulder blades and under ribs on
right side. These symptoms lead to
colds, influenza or other serious
troubles unless corrected
ately. L
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which over
taxes them and causes the. blood
to absorb and carry into the sys
tem the impurities that the HVer
and kidneys have failed to elimin
ate.
When you treat the liver alone,
you treat only a third of your
trouble, and that is why you have
to take purgatives every few
nights. Calomel or other ordinary
laxatives do not go far enough. If
you would treat your kidneys and
blood while treating the liver, you
would put your entire system in
order and frequent purgatives would
then be unnecessary.
Dr. W. L. Hitchcock many years
ago recognized these Important
facts, and after much study and
research, compounded what is now
known as Dr. Hitchcock’s Liver,
Kidney and Blood Powders, three
medicines combined in one. This"
was the Doctor’s favorite prescrip
tion for many years, being used by
his patients with marked success.
It is a harmless vegetable remedy
that will not make you sick, and
you may eat- anything you like
while taking It. i
Get a large tin box from your
druggist or dealer for 25c, under his
personal guarantee that it will give
relief, tone up the liver, stimulate
the kidneys to healthy action and
thereby purify the blood. Keep it
in the home for ready use whenever
any member of the family begins
to feel “out of sorts.” It will
prove a household friend and a val-'
uab> - remedy.— (Advt.) '
