4 MOTHERS NERVES

When your children "get on your
nerves." the trouble is with your nerves,
not with the children.
You find yourself scolding them when
you should be reasoning with them and
if you are wise you will realize that your
nervous system needs attention.
You observe, doubtless, that you wake
up in the morning unrefreshed by your
nights sleep, that you often feel better
at night than you do in the morning.
You realize that you are getting irritable,
things worry you that didn't formerly
and you have headaches more frequently
than you used to-.
Let this condition go on uncorrected
and you invite a nervous breakdown.
The proper treatment is to take more
rest, stop worrying and build up your
blood and nerves with DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. You will soon find that YOU
sleep better and are more refreshed by it,
that your appetite and digestion improve,
headaches are less frequent and that lit
tie things do not annoy you as they die.
You can begin the treatment today for
