Mr. Woolen Thinks Much of ZIRON Because li Wads Him His Old SsfL Again. Sick people do not Ketlmiichout of life. In order to enjoy your meals, to do your work v.ell, you must be strong and healthy. Pale, weak, nervous people frequently need iron to enrich their blood and to re- >tore vitality to their system, and a good way to supply the iron is to follow th* example ot Mr. Clayton Wooten, ot Scot land, lia., who used Ziron Iron Tonic and nas this to say about it: “l have taken Zironaccordinetodirect- bns and I can truthfully say that it is a fine tonic. It has done me all the good. Sincfl began taking it,! have gained eigm pounds in weight and enjoy eating three 1 * neals a day, 1 shall do all I can to xe- Zommcnd Ziron.” Try Ziron! Your druggist sells Ziron an a guarantee to refund your money if the first bottle fails to benetit. You can not lose aiiylhing, but very likely will gain much, by gelling a boltle of Ziron, today!
