cient Blood Quickly Correctea by
This Tonic Remedy.
A feeling Of general weakness, poor
appetite, loss of breath after the slight
est exercise and broken sleep are some,
of the symptoms of general debility.
You may think that they have no relation,
to each other and that you will worry
along, hoping all the time to feel better
soon. This is q mistake, for every one,
Of the symptoms is caused by bad iood,
which must be made pure an new
before health will be restored aga;a. A
tonic treatment Is necessary and fer this
purpose there is no better remedy than
DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
Mr.. j. G.. Hayey, of 95 WilIov- ST..
Chelsea, Mass, says: 81 was sicE for q
number of years from general debility
and indigestion. was never free from
stomach trouble and my nerves were so
shattered that the least excitement un-
fitted me for any serious work My
sleep was restless on account of terrible.
pains in the small of my back. These.
pains would sometimes last for month
or two. My sight grew weak, there seem
ing to be q blur constantly before my
eyes. couldn't concentrate my mind
on my work, and the attempt to do SO
completely exhausted me.
'fI was finally forced to give up q
position I had held for twenty-eight
years. After trying several medicines
without help, I read of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills and gave them trial. They
made me feel so much better and so
much stronger that I started in business
for myself here in Chelsea. have
never had a return of my former sick
ness and cheerfu1ly recommend DR.. Will
iams' Pink Pills as am excellent nerve
and blood tonic''

been recognized rs an excellent tonic
remedy in cases of indigestion and gen
eral debility, where the stomach and
other organs of the body are weakened
and disordered simply through lack Of
proper nourishment. They have also
been especially successful in curing
an8mia, rheumatism, after-effects of the
grip and fevers.

Gen. Zebulon Pike was discovering
the peak that bears his name. 'The
reason why I know I'm the first white

that it hasn't got any patent medicine

couldn't spare the time to stop and dis
cover the gold that lay hidden all
around him, he took a parting look at
the snowy summit of the peak and re-

ship at West Point, and the
army as a life career. Blessed with
wealthy parents. there seemed nothing
in the way to the accomplishment of

for study that had been given him,

for him an appointment to the army.
