Thin Blood Makes a Weak Body But You Can Enrich the Blood and Send New Vigor Through the System by Using Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. Every nerve and every muscle of the body depends on the blood for nour- jshment. Thin, tery blood makes weak nerves and flabby muscles. The heart fails in its work of forcing blood through the body; the lungs, the stomach, the liver, kidneys and bowels all do their work in an imper- fect way, and you drag about weak, tired and miserable. The use of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food makes a radical change in every hu- man system that is starved and im- poverished for want of rich, pure and life-snstaining blood.
