barengeist.livejournal.comThis product was extraordinarily dangerous.
"When taken in the doses recommended by Professor Kellogg it could also cause hypertension, cardiac arrest, and stroke. Analysis of a sample of "Sanitone Wafers" by the federal chemists showed them to contain, salts of iron and chromium, a laxative plant extractive, red pepper and a trace of strychnine. In 1921 Kellogg was ordered by the District Court in Tennessee to cease marketing and destroy his inventory."

It's also World Red Cross Day/World Red Crescent Day and No Socks Day.
It's V-E Day and School Nurses Day, too. (Got ads?)

German propaganda poster urging citizens to bring their gold to purchasing centers (in other posters it was more bluntly "Your Gold to the Fatherland"), to support the war effort.
MANY more WW1 German posters HERE.
