AFTER ILLNESS ~
ZIRON IRON TONIC
When Your System Needs Strength, After a
Sick Spell, Try Ziron
Your blood must have iron to give
your body strength. Lack of iron
makes many people pale, weak and I
languid. To put iron into your blood, i
take Ziron Iron Tonic. Especially as- !
ter a severe Illness do you need Ziron ;
to bring back appetite and build up
weakened vitality.
J. E. Clifton, of R. F. D. 3, Lyons.
Ga., writes: “Last summer I had ty
phoid fever and had hemorrhages of
the bowels and my health was wretch
ed. I seemed to be unable to get my
strength back. I had no appetite, I
j had no energy, I didn’t think I was
I ever going to get well. My knees were
weak, my flesh felt clammy’ I was in
a pretty bad condition. I heard of
Ziron and what a good tonic and
strengthener it was. and I sent for It
at once. It helped me. I began to
improve and soon felt much better and
t stronger."
All druggists sell or can get Ziron
for you. Get a bottle today. It is
guaranteed. zn 2

Americus Experiences Going Back For
Ten Years.
Kidney weakness can be cured.
But what caused it once will cause
it again.
Here’s an Americus man who has
had several attacks.
Several times in ten years Mr. Rigs
by has used Doan’s Kidney Pills.
He says that Doan’s have never, fail
ed him
Ten years ago, Mr. Rigsby publicly
j endorsed Doan’s.
He now r confirms his statement.
| What better proof of merit?
Proved by years of experiet c»
Told by Americus people
This is convincing testimony:
W. W. Rigsby, butcher, 205 Prince
■St., says: 'I consider Doans Kidney
Pills a fine remedy for backache and
kidney trouble I suffered from kidney
•■complaint, my back ached a good
deal and my kidneys were out of order.
I got a supply of Doan’s Kidney Pills
and they greatly relieved me.”
The above 1 statement was given
March 28, 1908, and on April 24, 1918,
Mr. Rigsby said: "I have the same
faith in Doan’s Kidney Pills now as
when I endorsed them before. I use
them occasionally as a preventive and
they keep me in good condition.’
