Y.—When interviewed in his spartment at Bres« ton Hall, Ty Cobb said: “Hundreds of people write to me to know how I train and what I do to keep up that force and vitality which enables me to play practieally every day of the entire baseball season, They wonder why I can play & better game today than when I was younger. “The secret is keeping up the supply of iron In my blood—e exactly what everyone else can do if they will. “At the beginning of the present season I was nervous and rum down from a bad attack of tonsilitis, but soon the papers begah to state ‘Ty Cobb has “Come back.” He is hitting up the old stride.’ The secret was iron—Nuzated Iron filled me with renewed life. “Now they say I'm worth $50,000 a year to any baseball team, yet without plenty of iron in my blood I wouldn't be worth five cents. Nuxated Iron supplies that ‘stay there’ strength and vim that mekes men of mark and women of power.” Continuing, Dr. Sauer said: “Mr. Cobb's case is only one of hundreds which I eould eite from my own personal experience, which proves conclusively the astonishing power of nuxated iron to restore strength and vitalitm, even in most complicated chronie conditions.” Not long ago s man came to me who was nearly half & eentury old and asked me to give him a preliminary examination for life in- surance. I was astonished to find him with the blood pressure of a boy of 20 and as full of vigor, vim and vitality as a young mang in fact, a young man he really was, notwithstanding his age. The secret he said was taking iron—nuxated iron had filled him with renewed life. At 30 he was in bad health; at 46 he was careworn and nearly all in. Now at 80 a miracle of vitality and his face beaming with the buoyancy of youth. As I have said a hundred gy times over, iron is the greatest of all strength builders. If people would only throw away patent medicines and nauseous eoncoctions and take simple nuxated iron, I am convinced that the lives of thousands of persons might be saved, who now die every year from pneumonia, grippe, consumption, kidney, liver and heart trouble, eta, The real and true cause which started their diseases was nothing more nor less than a weakened condition brought on by lack of iron in the blood. Iron is absolutely necessary to enable your blood to change food into living tissue. Without' it, no matter how much or what you eat, your food merely passes through you without doing you any good. You don't get the strength out of it, and as 8 cone sequence you become weak, pale and sickly looking, just like s plant trying to grow in a soil deficient in iron. If you are not strong or well you owe it to yourself to make the following test: See how long you ean work or how far you can walk without becoming tired Next take two five-grain tablets of ordinary nuxated iron three times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see for yourself how much you have gained. I have seen dose ens of nervous, run-down people who were alling all the while double their strength and endurance and entirely get rid of all symptome of dyspepsia, liver and other troue bles In from ten to fourteen days time simply by taking iron in the proper form.
