GRIPS UGLY SEQUEL
KNEES STIFF, HANDS HELPLESS
RHEUMATISM NEAR HEART.
Mrs. Van scoy Experiences Dangerous
After Effects From Grip and Learns
Value of a Blood Remedy.

The danger from grip is seldom over
when the characteristic, symptoms, the
fever, the catarrh, the headache and
the depression Of spirits pas away. The
grip leaves behind it weakened vital
powers, thin blood, impaired digestion
and over sensitive nerves--a condition
that makes the system an easy prey TO
pneumonia, bronchitis, rheumatism,
nervous probation. and even consump-
ton. Too much stress cannot be laid
on the Importance of Strengthening
the blood and nerves during GONZALES
cence.
The story told by scores Of victims OF
the grips substantially the same. One
was tortured by terrible pains at the
base of the skull that made life unen-
durable; another was left tired, faint
and in every way wretched from
anaemia or scantiness of blood; anoth-,
er was LETT with weak lungs, difficulty
In breathing and acute neuralgia. In
+ every case relief was. sought in vain
until the great blood builder and nerve
tonic, DR.. Williams Pink Pills, was
used. This remedy is peculiarly adapt
ed to build up stable health after a
siege of grip For quickness of action
nothing is known that will approach 1t,
but lit is also without equal for thor
oughness.
Mrs. Van Scoy makes a statement
that supports this claim. She4says:
II had severe attack of grip, and
before l had fully recovered rheuma-
tism set in and tormented me for three
months. 1 was in badly rune down
state. Soon after it began / was SO

walk. It kept growinfg steadily
worse and pretty soon / actually
couldn't walk At last had to give up
obliged to keep my bed My knees
my hands were perfectly helpless
T hen the pains began to threaten my
heart and thoroughly alarmed me.
while 1 was suffering in this way
CHANGED to run across a little book that
told about the merits of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills The statements in 1T iE1-
pressed me and led me to buy a box.
1t was fortunate for me that / did, for
these pills proved the very thing 1
needed to cure me. Improvement set
in as soon as / began to take them, and
1t was very marked by the time I had
finished the first box. Four boxes
made ME a well woman. In fact. the
pills proved so thoroughly adapted to
my case that there is nothing further
to report except that I am very CRATE
woman and that sincerely recon-
mend DIR. Williams Pink Pills to any
people who are sick as I was"
Mrs. Laura M. Van Scoy lives at No.
20 Thorpe street, Danbury, Conn.,, DR..
Williams Pink Pills. are equally well
adapted for any other Of the diseases
that follow in the train of grip. Their
great reputation is founded on the fact
that they make pure, rich blood which
Is the basis Of sound heath. They ere
sold by all druggists.
