had Slapped my strength, robbing me of a
robust constitution at the time it was most
needed. Consequently when the changes
which are incident to this time of life took
place my strength was unequal to it and
broke down completely.
II was scarcely able to drag myself from
one chair to another. My face was white as
a sheet and looked as though | had not a
drop OF blood in my body. | became so
nervous that at times | was almost hysteri-
cal.
"We had already spent a great deal of
money for doctors, and as it was just so
much wasted, we did not feel able to throw
away any more, and | scarcely knew what
to 90, when one day friend calling at the
house told me about Or. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People, and induced me to try
them: L dld SO, reluctantly at first, but soon

no matter how awful the smells, the

buzzards would be ready to pounce
