THE TONIC YOU NEED
Il You Are Thin, Weak and Pale,
Is the Remedy That Cured This
Massachusetts, Woman Who
Was Tired, Worn Out
and DISCOURAGED.
and Discouraged.

Many people who are in chronic con-
dition OF i'll health really need nothing
more than tonic.
1t is the blood that is at fault and with
the vital fluid scanty, lacking in richness
or purity, there are frequently, produced
an alarming lot OF symptoms all OF which
will disappear when the blood is again
built up.
The name anamic has been given to the
condition when the blood is thin and
Door. 1t is a Greek word and means
simply ''too little blood" The patient is
fatigued after slight exertion and the
least exercise results in shortness OF
breath. 1t is condition which always
brings on fear OF consumption and it
advances SO gradually that its progress is
seldom noticed until it is well estab-
lished.
The one remedy for bloodless condi-
ton is more blood That is why DR..
Williams Pink Pills, the great blood
maker, have accomplished SO many cures.

street, Maiden, Mass, suffered for nearly
four years from anamia. She says:
"For nearly four years suffered from

headaches. My rest did not help me and
I was always tired and worn out. | was

Gus and received so little help from the
Doctors medicine that | quit taking it.
"My home was in London, England, at
the time OF my sickness and was
treated at two hospitals. The physicians
there said | had anamia but | did not
Seem to get any better. Through a
friend | was encouraged to try DR.. Will
