POOR BLOOD IS JUST LIKE SLOW POISON MUtes Yob Feel Lazy and Discour aged. You Get Nothing Done PEPTO MANGAN PURIFIES Tone Up Your Mood With It. Notice the Differoaae With Rich Red Blood ia Your Veins The man or woman or the child with a sickly-looking complexion, a pale wan face, has blood tllat is filled with poison. Instead of rich red blood conning through their veins, they are trying to get along with bloed that is weak and thin. It doesn't carry life giving qualities through the body. You see those men and women every day. They are so tired. Their shoulders droop. They slouch. It is all they can do to get around. As soon aa yon begin to feel that way take Pepto-Mangau, the well-known blood tonic. It will clear away the poisons and make your blood rich with red corpus cles. Pepto-Mangan is prepared in both liquid and tablet form. One has the same medicinal value as the other. Take either kind you prefer. But be sure you get the genuine Pepto-Mangau— "Gude's." The full name, "Gude's Pepto-Mangan," should be on the package.—Ad vt. TOWN TAXES.—The tax books for 1930 are in my hands. Prompt payment requested. B» R. Tbolinoeb, octaitf Tax Collector.
