In His Practice Because Results

DR.. Lapponi, the famous physician to
the Vatican, whose name has recently
come so greatly to the front ON account
Of his unremitting attention to His
Holiness, the late Pope Leo XIII, and
the high esteem and confidence with
which he is regarded by the present
Pope, His Holiness Plus K, is man of
commanding genius. He Is more than
a mere man Of science; he is man Of
original and independent mind. I'm
trammeled by the etiquette of the
medical profession and having used DIR.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People in
his practice with good results, he freely
avows the facts aud endorses the value
of this remedy with an authority which
no one will venture to question.
Or. Lapponrs Letter.

Williams Pink Pills i'll four cases
of the simple an8mia of develop
ment. After a few weeks of treat
ment, the result came fully up to my
expectations. For that reason I
shall not fail i'll the future to extend
the use of this laudable preparation
not only in the treatment of other
forms of the category of anemia or
chlorosis, but also in cases of neuras-
thenia and the like"
(Signed) GIUSEPPE LAPpoN1,
Via del Gracchi 1882, Rome.
The simple anemia of Development
referred to by Cf. Lapponi, is of course,
that tired, languid condition of young
girls, whose development to womanhood
is tardy and whose health, at that period,
is so often imperiled. His opinion of
the value of DIR. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People at that time is of the
highest scientific authority, and it con-
firms the many published cases in which
anamia and other diseases of the blood,
as well as nervous diseases such as ner-
vous prostration, neuralgia, st. Vitus'
dance, paralysis and locomotor ataxia
have been cured by these pills. They
are commended to the public for their
efficiency in making new blood and
Strengthening weak nerves. Aftel
such an endorsement they will be ac-
cepted by the medical aud scientific
world at their full value.
