That Grip !
Have you had it ?
Then have you
still got it ? If you
I have had La
Grippe , you are
probably no exception -
ception to the general -
eral rule ; you
have probably lost
your old time vig
orous grip. You
need building up.
You must eat hearty
and well , and your
Mood must be prop
erly digested and
go to make muscle and bone. You
need an invigorant. Take the gen
uine Johann HofT's Malt Extract ; it
\yill do all that you need. Your
health , your strength will return in
an incredibly short space of time.
Try it to-day. Your druggist has
it. The genuine has the signature
of "Johann Hoff" on the neck of
the bottle. Eisner & Mendelson Co. ,
