    For Weak and Run-down People Secret of Perfect Health. The blood is the medium through which every part of the body receives its nutriment, and as this nutriment is extracted from the blood while it is passing through minute vessels at the extremities of the arteries, it is evident that in order to have health and strength of body there should be a full and free distribution of this fluid to all the parts, and it must be pure and rich in its flesh and muscle-making qualities. So important is the blood to health, and even the existence of our bodies, it was said by the ancients, “The blood of the body is the life thereof.” Whether this is wholly true or not, it is very certain that we cannot live, even for an hour, without this wonderful fluid. Disease has no effect on persons who have a sufficient quantity of rich and pure blood. It only acts on those whose blood is watery, impoverished or impure. For example: let a man whose blood is in good condition meet with an accident and get bruised, burned or cut, it soon heals up and is for¬ gotten ; but if his blood is poor and bad, his bruise may turn into a cancer, and his burn or cut into the worst kind of an ulcer, that may eat his life away in a few years. One of the first signs of disease is weakness, emacia¬ tion and lack of vitality; and the first sign of returning health is increase of flesh, strength and vigor. This weakness, emaciation and lack of vitality simply means that certain substances which go to make up the blood and nerves have become exhausted; and, to renew flesh, muscle and strength, these substances must be restored. Dr. Chase s Blood and Nerve Food is composed of the same kind of substances that are lacking in the impover¬ ished blood and nerve forces when in poor health, and abundant in the rich juices that flow through the entire system when in perfect health. If people would take this Food occasionally when in health to keep their blood and nerves in good condition, many spells of sickness and wasting diseases would be prevented, and there would be little left for doctors to do. It makes sick people well; puts solid flesh and muscle on thin people ; gives strength to weak people; restores the lost vitality to nervous people; and imparts the tint of health to pale and sallow people. Acknowledged IVIerit. Bach mail brings us reports of restoring weak and run-down people of all ages back to health, the cures of which in some cases seem almost miracu¬ lous. The medical profession also acknowledge its worth by prescribing and using it in their practice ; but the greatest acknowledgment of all comes from manufacturers of other preparations who imitate us by saying that theirs is ‘ ‘ the best blood and nerve food. ’ ’ This statement shows that even they look upon Dr. Chase’s Blood and Nerve Food as the highest standard in blood and nerve preparations. Dr. Chase’s is the genuine and original Blood and Nerve Food, and its name and trade-mark have been registered in the Patent Office at Washington. See that our trade-mark is on the box you buy.
