The following advertising commit tee for the Student association has been appointed by Burke Adams, chairman: James Proebsting, Harley Anderson. Dana' Thompson and Robert Gilbert. " Our allies are holding fast in this our country's peril. With weight of iron we will help con quer the foe and drive back the despicable Hun! What is most needed at the battle-front, as well as at home, is more iron. It takes muscles of iron and nerves of steel real men men with red blood, men with the brawn to do and nerve to buck the line. Men "with a wallop," men with vim, vip, vigor, are those who take "Irontic," a new discov ery, composed of iron and herbal extracts, and recently found to be a wonderful tonic for the maim" facture of red blood within the body. Doctor Pierce and a dozen physicians at the Surgical Institute in Buffalo, N. Y., have long experi mented and have at last fotind the best blood maker and nerve tonic known to-day. This they called " Irontic." It's an iron tonic that puts new energy, life, stamina into the blood. " Irontic " is to be pro cured of almost all druggists, in 60-cent vials. If you want to try it, send 10 cents to Dr. Pierce's Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., for a trial package. You will find "Irontic" tablets equally as good and effective as Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, which have been known for the past fifty years as a gentle herbal laxative. Folks at home have acquired the healthiest of habits. They -become "regular as clock-work," after taking these "Pleasant Pellets." Being com posed of May-apple, aloes, jalap, they are perfectly harmless to any system. They are tiny sugar coated pellets that cure biliousness. If you wake up with a bad taste, bad breath and tongue is coated; if your head is dull or aching; if what you eat sours and forms gas and acid in stomach, or you are bilious, constipated, nervous, sallow and can't get feeling just right, begin in side bathing. Drink before break 'asf, a glass of real hot water with i teaspoonful of limestone phos phate in it. This will flush the pois ons and toxins from stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels and cleanse, sweeten and purify the entire ali mentary tract. Do your inside ! bathing immediately upon arising in ; the morning to wash out of the sys tem all the previous day's poisonous vaste, gases and sour bile before i putting more food into the stomach. To feel like young folks feel; like i you felt before your-blood, nerves ' and muscles became loaded with body impurities, get from your pharmacist a quarter pound of lime stone phosphate which is inexpen sive and almost tasteless, except for a sourish twinge which is not un pleasant. Men and women who are usually constipated, bilious, headachy or have any stomach disorder should begin this inside bathing before breakfast. Adv. 0 00 000 w Drexel Shoe Co.
