PURE BLOOD PURE -YOUR HEALTH Failure to properly tone up your system in the spring is courting grave danger in the warm, dangerous days that follow, because with poor blood and a weakened condition, men and women not only feel tired at all times, are pale and sickly, but they can not throw off the germs and impurities that flourish In such weather. In this condition tbey are easily susceptible to the ravages of every disease that prevails. Many physicians are prescribing and recommending today Acid Iron Mineral the most powerful natural iron tonic known as a general Spring Tonic for the treatment of run-down, tired, sickly and anaemic people, and those with diseases of. the kidneys and stomach, as well as Lame Back, Thin Blood and Nervousness.

One trial of A. I. M. which contains no alcohol or injurious drugs will demonstrate the value of this famous remedy. Coming in liquid form it is full strength just as nature made it.

When his attention was railed to the fact that Green bad said he was makinc between 15 and IS miles, he replied that his friend was mistaken.

At this stage Motorcycle ratrolman Terethofr. who has been tak ing the joy out ot joy riding, came to his brother officers assistance and said that he saw the car when it i.assed a certain corner on Main street. mid that it was making 25 miles or better.
