A Message to People in Poor
Health Who Want
to Be Well
If you ar? in poor health merely
from a general run-down condition,
get some Gude's Pepto-Mangan of
your druggist and take it with your
meals for a few weeks or until you
feel right again. Pepto-Mangan is a
wonderful tonic and blood-builder and
is very pleasant to take. It does not
act like a miracle. Its effects are
gradual, but real and sure. It con
tains iron in a form easily digested
and absorbed by the system. For
thirty years Gude's Pepto-Mangan has
been used by physicians as a tonic for
run-down people. Don't continue to
be weak, nervous, and headachy?
take Gude's Pepto-Mangan and re
rtore your good health. Thousands
have been helped back to health by
it?you can be benefited if you will
iccept this truth and act now. Sold
n both liquid and tablet form. Ad
rertisement.
