A CURE FOR DEBILITY
Or. Williams Pink Pills A Reliable
Remedy for the Weak, AiIing
and BoodIess.

When the body is weak and the blood
thin it is sometimes difficult to find the
cause unless a wasting illness has pre-
ceded, or the sufferer happens to be a
girl on the verge of womanhood.
Obscure influences, something un-
healthful in ones surroundings or work,
may lead to a slow impoverishment of
the blood and an enfeeblement of the
whole body. When serious stage has
been reached there seems to be nothing
that will account for it.
Mr., G. E. Legg, of Upton, w. Va,
has found successful method of treat
ing weakness and bloodlessness. He
says:
Il used DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
weakness caused by lingering malarial
fever that began in the spring of 1896.

ton and a bad state of my blood. was
