The IletiMUnt Power.
We all have a certain power which.,
enables us to resist diseases; without
this resistant power we would be
easy prey for Infectious diseases.
Millions of minute germs are con
stantly fighting for supremacy In the
human body. As long as the resistant
power Is normal, the body 1b healthy,
but with the decline of It comes the
victory of the disease forming
germs. The first sign of a decline
of the resistant power is loss of ap
petite, followed by loss of bodily
strength. Take at once Trlner'a
American Elixir of Bitter Wine which.
will quickly restore your appetite,
give you new vigor, remove all waste
matter and help to build new blood.
It should also be used by anemia
ladles and debilitated people. In
diseases of the stomach and the in
testines It has no superior. At drug
stores. Jos. Trlner, 133-1339 So.
