i of Mrs. W. R. Nutting and Miss

1 avenue.
Greeting guests at the door
were the hostesses. They were as-
sisted in the dining room by
Mmes. C. B. Fuller, Edward Sie-
well, Sam Hays and Eddie Smith.
The hostesses were presented
corsages of holly by Mrs. Nutting

A Christmas tree made of

orated tea sandwiches, nuts,

In the living room, decorating
the base of the mantel, were
Christmas cards received in the
past two years by the hostesses

phere of friendly greeting. On
the mantel was an arrangement
of holly and candles.
A snow scene using a Santa

to the way I used to feel—I feel
fine! HADACOL certainly is
wonderful. I get a wonderful
night’s sleep—and eat—why I
swear I eat everything in sight.
Yes, sir, HADACOL sure is won-
derful. And you can bet your
life I recommend HADACOL to
all my friends.”
HADACOL is simply remark-
able in the way it has helped folks
of all ages—yes, thousands of
men, women and children who
have been plagued with deficien-
cies of Vitamins B1, B2, Niacin
and Iron. HADACOL is that
wonderful new preparation prom-
ising blessed relief for stomach
distress, nervousness, if caused by
an upset stomach, vague aches
and pains or a general run-down
condition when they are due to
such deficiencies.
HADACOL Attacks Real Cause
Remember, HADACOL is not a
quick-acting product that only at-
tacks the symptoms of the mis-
eries, but actually relieves the
real cause of pains and aches
due to such deficiencies—Yes, and
continued use of HADACOL
helps prevent the miseries from
coming back.
The most important thing about
HADACOL is that you get these
precious Vitamins in' liquid form,
which means that they are quick-
ly absorbed and dispatched to
the blood stream, ready to go
right to work. HADACOL helps
build up the hemoglobin content
of your blood (when Iron is
needed) to carry these precious
Vitamins and Minerals to every
body organ, yes, to every part
of your body.
HADACOL Can Help You
Don’t go through life putting up
with a stomach that is easily up-
set, that causes you gas pains,
heartburn, sour risings after
meals, a stomach that will not di-
gest food properly; yes, if due
to lack of Vitamins B1, B2, Nia-
cin and Iron, you can overcome
the deficiencies which are caus-
ing these miseries by taking
HADACOL, which contains those
precious Vitamins.
Start taking HADACOL right
away and if you do not get the
results you expect your money
will be immediately refunded.
HADACOL costs only $1.25 for a
trial size bottle. Large family or
hospital size, $3.50. There is only
one true and genuine HADACOL.
If your druggist does not have
HADACOL, order it direct from
