BEAUTIFUL WOMEN
HOW THEY MAINTAIN THE CHARMS
OF THEIR SEX.
The Importance that Attaches to the Care
of the Blood If One Wants Bright Eyes
and a Clear Complexion.

The Importance that Attaches to the Caro-
of the Blood If One Wants Bright Eyes
and a Clear Complexion.
Every sensible woman naturally wishes
toappear attractive. She knows the value
of bright eyes, delicate complexion and
lively spirits. She knows also that
good health is at the basis of her charms,
and that good blood is the source of good
health.
Miss Mamie Conway has complexion
which is the admiration of all who know
her. Asked if she could make any sug-
gestions that would be helpful to others
less fortunate, she said:
"My complexion would not have
pleased you, if you had seen it two years
ago It was then about as bad as it
could be, and it gave me a great deal Of
dissatisfaction. If you want g. good
complexion you must take care Of your
health, especially of the condition Of
your blood. My health was at that time
completely broken down. / was nervous,
had frequent headaches, a torpid liver
and great deal Of pain in that region.
[ suffered also from indigestion. 1t was
clear that my blood was in bad condition,
for pilnples broke out all over my face"
1t is hard to realize that, for there
isn't the slightest trace of such blem-
ishes now"
1T was unfortunately quite other,
wise then, and a long time passed before
found anything that gave me any re-
lief I became very weak and istless.
The doctors medicine did me no good,
and I took a number of highly recon-
mended tonics with no better result.
AS soon, however, as began to use DIR.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People my
complexion cleared up, and after had
taken two boxes there was not a sign Of
a pimple left on my face. My cheeks
became rosy, I gained flesh and have had
perfect health ever since"
Rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes are
merely signs of healthy blood. They have
come not only in the case of Miss Conway,
whose home is at 1241 East Eighth street,
Canton, Ohio, but to thousands of
women for whom DR.. Williams Pink
Pills have made new blood. There is no
surer way for you to obtain them, than to
buy box of these pills from any drug
gist and try them for yourself. They COR

RICKERT & wEELS
OF the Red Cross Pharmacy Tell Why
They Endorse vinOl So Highly.

F'irst-Vinol contains in a concentrat-
ed form all OF the medicinal curative
elements of cod liver oil, actually taken
from fresh Gods livers, but without a
drop of oil to nauseate and upset the
stomach and retard its work, therefore
where old-fashioned cod liver oil or emul-
sions win do good Vinol will do far more
good.
Second Because vinol is not pat
emit OF secret medicine; it contains no
injurious drugs to react upon the system
and you know Just what you are tax
ing, as everything it contains is printed
on the back label of every bottle.
Third--Because Vinol acts first upon
the stomach, creates healthy appetite,
tones up the digestive organs, purifies
and enriches the blood, and in natural
manner health is restored and strength
is created.
Fourth-Since we first put Vinol on
the market our admiration for it has
steadily increased, because it rarely dis
appoints a customer, in fact we can
truthfully say we never sold a medicine
more satisfactory to create strength for
old people, weak, siekly women and
children, nursing mothers and to build
up strength after severe sickness.
Again, Ninol is endorsed by eminent
| physicians and guaranteed by over two
thousand of the leading druggists OF
this country. These are some OF the
reasons why we believe in Vinol. Rick
ert & Wells, Druggists.
