MALTINE is a highly concentrated extract of barley, wheat and oats. Barley alone is employed in the manufacture of all other malt extracts, and not one of them is as highly concentrated as MALTINE.

MALT EXTRACTS which are thinner than MALTINE are thinner for the simple reason that they contain more waterare not concentrated as MALTINE is and therefore are less nutritious and more costly.

Maltine

MALTINE is rendered particularly de

licious and refreshing if administered with any of the aerated waters, milk, wine or spirits. Thus a pleasing change is afforded to capricious or fastidious invalids.

MALTINE, aside from its great nutritive

value, is so rich in Diastase that a dose readily digests all the starchy food, such as bread, potatoes and cake, which the average adult eats at a single meal.

BLOOD

VITALITY

The ESSENCE OF LIFE is the Blood.
The Vital Element of the blood is Hæmoglobin.

Without a normal percentage of this elementary principle the tissues
are insufficiently oxygenated and poorly nourished.
With a proper proportion the vital functions are quickened and the
entire system thoroughly fortified.

"Pepto-Mangan (“Gude”)

is a hæmoglobin producer, because of the quickly assimilable Organic Iron and Manganese which it contributes to the devitalized circulatory fluid existing in cases of

Anæmia, Chlorosis, Amenorrhea, Dysmenorrhoea,

Bright's Disease, Chorea, etc.
