this evening the Sleeplessness? Due to Nerve Fag, Caused by Impure Blood From Disordered Digestion -A Safe, Simple Remedy to Be Had at Any Drug Store. If you cannot sleep well; if your nerves are worn to a wire edge, and each day's duties look like an insurmountable obstacle to you, it is because your stomach and bowels and liver and kidneys are not working in harmony. Iron-Ox Tablets cure you, so that you know you are cured, by toning up the entire digestive system; by their nerve building and blood cleansing action; by revitalizing your entire physical being. They thoroughly regulate the bowels by their combined tonic and gently laxative Their tonic qualities stimulate the flow of digestive fluids, and with their mild laxative effect relieve all trouble. Remember, Iron-Ox Tablets are not purgative or cathartic in their effect; they are tonic-laxative; they cure by, building up the entire system.

Purgatives and cathartics give only temporary relief by violent and injurious. action--they do far more harm than good. Anything which shocks the system into activity is dangerous. Do not expect immediate perceptible effects. from Iron-Ox Tablets.

They produce a natural, regular building up of all the functions. This takes a little time, but a successful result is absolutely certain.
