BRING GOOD HEALTH


Any bodily weakness caused by a
deficiency In the blood can be cured
by the use OF Dr. Williams Pink pills
because these pills actually make new
blood. After attacks OF the grip the
blood Is generally run down and the
patient continues to decline.

them until l was entirely cured, They

and use them now whenever feel

Dr. Williams Pink Pills are inyal-
unable In such cases. as well as In
other blood diseases. because they not
only drive on the germs OF the disease
but build up the system. The pills
have cured anaemla, rheumatism, az.
