THE DOOR SLAMS
ON HAPPINESS
POOR BLOOD MAKES '
BAD HEALTH?THEN
COME THE "BLUES"
Once the vigor of red blood
becomes sapped of its strength
the door to happiness is lateral
ly slammed. Weariness: of bo
dy follows and it unfailingly en
genders depressed thoughts. To
be reserved and cheerless beco
mes a habit. After a time there
is an almost filmy dimness in
the expression of the eyes and
a pallor to the skin. Days seem
dull.and dark and difficult. A
sense of insufferable gloom per
vades the spirit.
Then it is that Gude's Pepto
Mangari is the great help. It is
a red blood builder. It puts red
into the blood?increases the
number of corpuscles which al
so makes rich red blood. When
the blood is restored to its na
tural healthy state, the sensa
tion of wel-being returns. In
stead of shuffling along cafeless
ly, there is a firm and springy
step, the bright lusterful eyes,
the clear complexion, identified 1
with the strength and vigor of !
good health. The druggist has <
Gude's Pepto-Mangan in both
liquid and tablet form^adver- '
tisement.
