IF YOU NEED
MORE STRENGTH
Try the Tonic Treatment for
Debility That Cured This
Man at keene.

When the blood becomes thin all of
the organs and tissues of the body suffer
from lack of nourishment, for it is the
blood that is constantly carrying to every
part Of the human system the materials
with which to repair the waste that is
going on throughout life. Naturally
the weakest organ is the first to show
the result of this blood starvation and
any inherited tendency to disease is then
likely to develop. Whatever it may be,
if the trouble is caused by lack of blood
it must be corrected by building up the
blood
Mr.. f. j. Patnode, of No. 95 Douglas
street, Keene, N. H., owes his present
health to this treatment. Il suffered
for year and a half" he says, "al-
though l was treated by doctor here

buzzing in my head, was pale and weak
and had to use a cane. lost about
thirty five pounds and looked like a
walking skeleton. There was a gnaw-
ing feeling in my stomach and l could
eat very little. / thought l could not
live and at times L even wished for
death.
"My attention was called one day to
an article about DIR. Williams Pink
Pills and when had given them trial
for week or two l began to feel better.
l continued to use them and in rea-
sonably short time felt as good as / ever
did. Our whole family has great faith
in the efficacy of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills"
The tonic treatment with DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills is successful because it
acts directly on the blood, purifying and
building it up to its normal health. 1t
thereby keeps the body healthy even
under unusual conditions.

showing what DR.. Williams Pink Pills
have accomplished in many severe dis

before it could get out OF the way.
He was thrown heavily to the
ground and suffered small cut on
his forehead, while one pedal of the
machine was broken. Mr.. Flanders
may consider himself lucky to have
escaped with slight injuries, as his
speed was such that ordinarily fall
of that kind would have been seri-
