As has been shown many acquire;

maturity. There are many ways- in j
which this habit has been acquired,
but perhaps the commonest form has |
been through the medium of a patent

of this deadly poison. Beef,;

IT MEDICINES
for the fallacy that beef, wine, and
and iron is efficient is that the alcohoi
it contains imparts a feeling of
stimulation and quickens the heart
action, a temporary condition lasting
as Ion# as the alcohol affects the
senses. That is why one must use
such preparations continuously, ?u
that the artificial stimUlatipn may be
kept up. The result often brings pn W~
a case of alcoholism.
It would be more beneficial in
such cases to use a natural iron preparation
free from the dangers of al- ^
cohol or other habit-forming drugs.
For those who may be weak, anaemic,
run down, or suffering from
stomach, kidney or bladder trouble,
or poor impoverished blood, an iron
tonic of known purity is except.or "].
