FRANK WHINERY SPEAKS He Finds that the Tonic Has Accomplished Wonders for Him. The men who are engaged in intro ducing Tona Vita in Brooklyn are re ceiving statement from meg ami women in every walk of life who have been relieved by this new tonic. A ttinna ntftcea rectt'e.l tha, nthst .lav was one from a railroad man. Frank J C. Wbinery. who reside ia Jersey City. Mr. rYhioery stated as follows: "I have been feeling run down for several year and could never find any relief from the nervous state into which I had fallen. I was able to do mv work, but it required at) effort, whereat I had formerly been able to do anything with pleasurable ambi tion. I was easily tired, and could get no benefit from my sleep. While in New York I heard about tbe new tonic. Tona Vita, and purchased a bottle. I found that it waa everything that had been represented. After tht first ftw doses I experienced relief, tatd aow I feel better than I have felt for yeara . This ia entirely owing to Tona Vita." "Mr. Wbinery la only on of many hundreds," stated John Beaaley Webb, the English expert, who ia assisting in intrmfWcing Tona Vita. "Brooklyn men and women are coming in every day telling ut bow much better they are feeling since thev took Tona Vita. Many of them suffer from entirely different symptoms. One woman may tell me that she bad formerly suf fered from dirty and fainting spells: that her nerves were constantly on edge and the would jump at tbe slightest noise; that she could not do her housework, because she always leu so tired. Ihe next minute an ! other woman will come in and tay i thai More taking Tona Vita the ex perienced severe pain in the head 1 anil back; that there wa always an internal gnawing sensation; that she was constantly bilious and had no appetite, etc. But they all express themselves as feeling 'run down,' and this is one of the surest symptoms of nervous debility. "Tona Vita hail the beat tale in the drug store of New York y -sterday since it hn been introduced." YtbS WANTS H ITH.IT COST I , rig1. i I'Uno. baulsbsa J pic sat ot fur. un ma. Hat of Fan, Vtotrol.
