Feed your nerve and all these symptoms due to nerva starvation will disappear. Eminent specialists state that one of the best things for the nerves is an organic phosphate known among druggists as Bitro Phosphate, a five-grain tablet of which should be taken with each meal. Being a genuine nerve builder and not a stimulant or habit-forming drug, Bitro-Phosphate can be safely taken by the weakest and most delicate sufferer, and the results fol lowing its use are often simply astonishing. By strengthening the nerves, weak, tired people regain energy and vigor; thin ness and angularity give way to plump ness and curves ; sleep returns to the sleepless; confidence and cheerfulness re place debility and gloom; dull eyes become bright and pale, sunken cheeks regain the pink glow of health. It is sold by Sherman & McConnell and all good druggists. CAUTION : While Bitro-Phosphate is unsurpassed for the relief of nervousness, general debility, etc., those taking it who do not desire to put on flesh should use extra care in avoiding fat-producing foods.
