SOMETHING every
WOMAN SHOULD KNOW,
Are You the One Woman Neglecting a
Mothers or Wife's Duty, or Are
There Countless Thousands,

Many women formerly full OF robust vigor,
with clear compilations and bright, vivaciOus
spirits find themselves slowly losing their good
looks and strength, fading under the influence
OF an unknown cause, ignorant of their real
condition. Just when woman should be at
her best she becomes depressed, fretful, nerv-
Gus. And why! You ask. She has been So
busy planning, has been SO absorbed with
her social duties, her work has been SO
continuous, that she scarcely allowed herself
a moments relaxation. She has neglected
her health and, where her food formerly
seemed to nourish, now she has but little appe-
tito AMI even what she does eat does not seem
to do any good. If You should ask her what
the trouble is, she would say, II am Just
tired out" But the real cause is constipation
and its resulting conditiOn-bad blood. Just
think what habitua neglect OF the bowels
means, sickness Instead of good health; ner-
yOusness instead of yigor; cheerfulncss re-
placed by depression, happiness bv misery.
weeks use of Smiths Pineapple and But
ternut Pills in these cases will work wonders.
They will regulate the functions Of the liver
and bowels, Immediately unload the conges-
ton, cure the constipation and cleanse the
blood of impurities. 1t is pitablc to see
women with no color in their cheeks, without
ambition, always tired, with the exuberance
and vvacity OF youth sapped as bv some
dreaded vampire, just because nature has
been neglected, the bowels hav e ecome slug.
rish and poisonous elements have been all
sorbed into the blood. Keep the bowels reg
ular by using Smiths Pineapple and Butternut
Pills. Never allow constipation or a torpid
liver to develop. A stitch in time will save
mountains OF misery. Of bad feelings and de-
preston. These little pills are wonderful
health givers. They are Natures true axa-
tive and positive cure for sick headache.
