Three per' BLOODED PEOPLE TO ROBUST HEALTH? ‘The dollar was | in New York, Baltimore, Detroit and in other cities where physi- cians keep abreast of times. There’s a reason. For if you don’t know—you ought to know—that science has discovered In beef and calves liver a “Mysterious Substance” that by actual test has succeed- ed in restoring to good health thousands of weak, thin-blood- ed, wornout people. So leading physiclans the country over are advising their run-down, thin-blooded patients to eat more liver for better health, more energy and greater vitality. So wonderfully efficient is this “Mysterious Substance” that in many hospitals that dread dis- ease. Pernicious Anemia, has been successfully treated and overcome, _The “Mysterious Substance” in .liver is something like the vifa- mines extracted from Cod Liver Oil, but most scientific investi- gators claim for it even greater potency and.rejuvenating power. But getting into the system this potent “Mysterious Sub- stance” by eating liver is recog- nized as a slow process —too slow for the average eager American who wants to get well speedily. So one of the best known laboratories in America, after prolonged experiments. succeed- ed in extracting from fresh beef liver the vital elements and put this extra in concentrated form. very palatable and even pleasant to the taste. " The price of liver has gone uj And rundown, thin - blooded. | 3L} sickly men, women and children have taken this concentrated elixir which has been named Hemo-Liver and have regained their health and strength. Hundreds of physicians are prescribing it. You can go to gressive today and get a big 12- ounce bottle of Hemo-Liver that will last you eight days. A tablespoonful is a dose and you'll have to eat a lot of liver to fit as much of this red blood making “Mysterious Substance” as youll get in one tablespoon- ful of Hemo Liver. Itis How a man may look when Indeed its powerful efficacy is so apparent that one bottle, or eight days’ treatment, often brings such a big improvement in health that both patient and Doctor are astonished. Its success as a maker of rich blood and to bring strength, vigor and vitality to those who are anemic and run down is so certain that pharmacists sell it with the distinct understanding that if one bottle does not help you—wonderfully — your money will be refunded. What is this “Mysterious Sub- stance”—? No one seems to know—but as one great New York newspaper stated editori- y— “The secret of how this “Mys- terious Substance” rejuvenates the corpuscle fac still eludes the searchers. but the victim of the disease will not worry about that.
