WAS WEAK AND DIZZY
Or. WIlIIams' Pink Pills Restored the
Patient to Perfect Health
And Strength.

Mrs Mary Gagner. of No. SIG South
Summer street, Holyoke, Mass. has
passed through an experiences which
proves that some of the greatest bless
ings of life may lie within easy reach
and yet be found only by mere chance.
A few years ago while she was employed
in the mills she was suddenly seized
with dizziness and great weakness s. /
was SO weak at times" she says, that
] could hardly stand, and my head be-
came SO dizzy that it seemed as If the
floor was moving around.
MY condition at last became SO bad
that was obliged to give up work in the
mill, and later still became SO feebly
that could not even attend to me
household duties After the slightest
exertion had to lie down and rest until
! regained strength.
ga friend who had used DIR. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People urged me to
try them. bought a box and began to
take them. The benefit was so positive
and SO quickly evident that continued
to use the pills until I had taken alto
gether six boxes. By that time I was
entirely cured. aud for two years have
had no return of my trouble. I am now
in the best of health and able to attend
to all my duties. / am glad to acknowl-
edge the benefit / received and hope
that my statement may be the means of
inducing others who may suffer in this
way to try this wonderful medicine.
The secret of the power of DIR. Will
iams' Pink Pills in cases of debility,
such as Mrs. Gagner's lies in the fact
that they make new blood, and every or
gan and even every tiny nerve in the
body feels the stir of new tide Of
strength.

Many people seem to think that the
use of dogs in war is comparatively
modern. Yet ancient Corinth was
saved from the foe by courageous ami
mails that fought the invader while
the garrison slept. To-day the dog is
used for active operations as well as
for ambulance work. Trained dogs
have been used for outpost duty and
for the carrying of ammunition. For
ambulance purposes their work has
been proved to be of the utmost value

The word whisky is of Irish origin.
Indeed, the Irish claim that whisky
itself is of Irish origin, and, more
over, that the Irish taught the Scotch
people how to make whisky. AS for
the name, it springs from the Irish
word uisgue, which means water. The
distilled spirit was called by the Irish
in ancient times uisgue beatha, OF
life-giying water.
