Gude's Pepto-Mangan aids convalescents to a quick recovery, for it crof ates a generous supply of rich, red blood and restores the body to its normal. healthy condition. That's why physicians recommend Pepto-Mangan. for they know that it imparts to the blood and material so sorely needed by weak, run-down systems. Pale, sallow, thin, easily-exhausted men and women find that Pepto-Mangan builds them, up wonderfully. A new supply of rich, red blood is created, which in turn imparts the glow of health to the cheeks, increases the appetite, the eyes sparkle, the entire system takes a new lease on life. Pepto-Mangan is obtainable in liquid or tablet form, whichever proves most convenient. Both forms possess identical medicinal qualities. There is but one genuine Pepto: Mangan and that is "Gude's" Ask your druggist for "Gude's and look for the name "Gude's"-on the package.
