WHY ONE Is so WEAK.

How to overcome the9languOr of thel warm
lseason. Winter confinement uses upNths
(strength of the blood and fills the body
full of impurities.
Why do we feel out of sorts just when the
hardshps Of winter are over and the out
door world begins to be attractive? We are
feverish and listless and weak, while nature
all about us is astr with fresh life, and the
contradiction puzzles us.
In winter the air of the close rooms in
| which we spend so much of the time does
not furnish enough oxygen to the lungs to
burn out the foul matter in the blood.
Everyone knows the uncomfortable feel
| ings that follow the breathing of bad air
and that are cured by simply opening a
window for a short time. The worst effects,
, however, are those which are stored up and
do not appear at once.
In the cold season we do not exercise as
much and the skin and kidneys do not
throw off the waste matter as freely. The
whole system gets clOgged just as ma
chine does when it is not cleaned with fire.

and gets less nourishment out of the food.
So there is weakness everywhere, weak
organs, weak muscles, weak nerves.
| When the warm weather comes, the SyS-

Relief can be had only through the use of a
remedy that will promptly and thoroughly

one best adapted for this purpose is the
great blood tonic known as DR.. Williams
