An enormous number of people who ought to be strong, vigorous and in the prime of life are constantly complaining of weak nerves, headaches, pains across the back, disturbed digestion, shortness of breath, a general "run-down" condition, melancholy, bad memory, etc., when the real cause of all their suffering is IRON STARVATION OF THE BLOOD. TTie proof of this is shown by the fact ttist when organic Iron is supplied to their blood, that all their multitudf of symptoms often quickly disappear and the very men and women who were formerly so com plaining now become strong, healthy and vigorous, with even dispositions and a sunny, cheerful nature. Nature put plenty of iron in the husks of grains and the skin and peels of vegetables and fruits to enrich your blood, but mod ern methods of cookery throw all these things away hence the slsrmintr increase, in recent years, in anaemia iron starva tion of the blood, with all its attendant ills.
