GROWING
GIRLS NEED
PINK PILLS
The Tonic Necessary for Their
Proper Development and to
Insure a dealthful and
Happy Life.-Read This
Statement of an
Iowa Woman.

There is a form of anaemia, or blood
lessness, that often aff1icts growing
girls, that has been called the anaemia
CT development. It requires care ana
proper attention as neglect may cause
a life of unhappiness and suffering
There is also danger of consumption
especially if a dry, hacking cough is
noticed. The disease is in the blood
and DR.. Williams Pink Pills are par
ticulariy well adapted to cure it. We
have yet to hear of a case in which
those blood-making pills have been
tried without success
Miss Esther E. Durbin, of 2121z Main
street, Davenport, Iowa, says; when
I was a school girl 1 became afflicted
with anaemia and grew so weak that
1 could scarcely walk. There was a
craving for starch and ate great
deal of it. I was pale and thin, had
no ambition and was subject to hysteri-
cal attacks. My breath was SO short
that would have to sit down and rest
on the way up the schools steps.
would fail asleep during a recitation IN
spite of my efforts to keep awake and
at last had to give up going to school.
Sometimes it seemed that my heart
would jump out of my body. Almost
everything ate hurt my stomach and
had a bladder trouble that caused me
to bloat and puff up. 1 had two doctors
during the two years before I began
using DR.. Williams Pink Pills and at
last they told my mother that they
could do nothing for me.
Our druggist recommended Dr. Will
Jams Pink Pills and when 1 had taken
them about three weeks noticed
change for the better. Altogether 1
used them for about a year and they
gave me new life and health when ev-
cry other means had failed. 1 have
recommended the pills to many others
and am always glad to do So
A valuable booklet, Diseases of the
Blood" containing fuller information
will be sent free upon request.
