Let Me Put PEP into You Let me show you what it means to be filled with energy, initiative, vim and vigor! No man who isn’t fit physically and mentally gets half the joy out of life. No one who hasn’t the stamina to stay on top of his job ever gets to the top of the heap. Who are the most popular men you know—the men who get the glad hand everywhere—the men who are getting ahead socially and in a business way? They are the men with health and strength, full of red- blooded enthusiasm and ability, men of personality and pep. Don’t Be a Worthless Weakling You can’t get anywhere worth while if you are only half a man— if you are weak, thin-blooded, anemic—if you are cursed with chronic ailments that make the work of each day just one hard job after another. You can’t make a success of anything if fool things you did while a youth have dissipated your vitality. You know it, down in your heart, as well as.I do. You know that some day, sooner or later, you will have to do something to pull yourself out of the slough. De it NOW. Regain Your Vigor and Vitality _ I will show you a-safe, sure, speedy means of ridding yourself of en- ergy-destroying ailments; of freeing yourself from -constipation, dyspepsia, biliousness and other miserable ills; of building yourself up from the beginning—of putting on solid flesh or taking off surplus fat, as the case may be; of strengthening your heart, lungs and other vital organs—in a word, of recovering the health, strength and vitality you have lost. : You will never get well unless you make up your mind’ to look your eondition fairly in the face and act. You will get worse, instead of better. You will go slipping and sliding down the easy incline to an irritable, ailment-ridden, useless old age. Don’t fool yourself about it. You can see examples of it on every hand. And don’t believe for a minute that patent medicine dope will ever get you out of the hold. Pills never put pep_into a man.
