WHAT NEU2ASTHENIA IS

Neurasthenia is condition Of exhaus-
ton OF the nervous system. The causes
are varied. Continuous work, mental or
physical, without proper vacation periods,
without proper attention to diet and e,S-
ercise, also worry over the struggle for
success, are the most common causes.
Excuses Of almost any kind may pro-
duce it. Some diseases, like the grip,
will cause ncurasthenia. So also will .
severe shock, intense anxiety or grief. Z
The symptoms are over-sensitiveness,
irritability, disposition to worry over
trifes, headache, possibly nausea.
The treatment is ono ofnutrition OF the
nerve cells, requiring a non-alcoholic
tonic. AS the nerves get their nourish-
ment from the blood the treatment must
be directed toward building up the blood.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills act direcly on
the blood and with proper regulation Of
the diet have proved ofthe greatest bene-
fit in many cases of neurasthenia. A
tendency to anemia, or bloodlessness,
shown by most neurasthcnic patients, is
also corrected by these tonic pills. Your
own druggist sells DR.. Williams' Pink
Pills.

LADIES'! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR.
Use Grandra's Sage Tea and svlphuA
Recipe and Nobody will
Know

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural.
color dates back to grandmothers
time. She used to keep her hair beau-
ttfully dark. glossy and abundant.I
Whenever her hair fell out Or took on,
that dull. faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a 50-cent bottle OF
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" you will get this famous old
recipe which can be depnded upon to
restore natural color and beauty to
the hair and is splendid for dandruf.,
dry, feverish, itchy scalp and falling
hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied You simply dampen a
sponge Or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at time. By morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two it becomes beautiful
ly dark, glossy, and abundant.
