NEuRALelA,S ONE SYMPTOM

Neuralgia lie disease which has but
one symptom-pain.
The pain of neuralgia IS sharp and
shooting with intervals Of freedom.
An attack of neuralgia does not give
immunity but occurrences are the rule:
The same nerve is generally affected
which means that this particular nerve
has lost its resistance and that there
will be recurring attacks until the
strength of the nerve is built up.
How can the strength of q nerve be
restored? The nerves are nourished en-.
tirely by the blood and weak nerves are
toned up by supplying to the blood the
elements that the nerves lack. As the
general health and strength of the
patient are built up the nerves resume
their normal functions, inflammation
caused by lack of nutrition disappears
and the neuralgia attacks cease.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are a tonic
exceptionally we'll suited for the treat
ment of neuralgia because they contain
no alcohol, stimulating or habit-form-
ing drugs. The tonic treatment with
these pills is we'll worth a trial by any
sufferer from neuralgia.
Write today for booklet on nervous
disorders to the DR.. Williams Medicine
Co., Schenectady, N. Y. Your own
druggist sells the pills or they will be
sent postpaid at 30 cents per box.

Glass Of hot water each morn
ing helps US look and feel
clean, sweet, fresh.

Happy, bright, alerL-vlgorous and
vivacious-a good clear skin; nat

from illness are assured only by
clean, healthy blood. If only every
woman and likewise every man could
realize the wonders of the morning

would take place.
Instead Of the thousands of sickly,
anaemic looking men, women and
girls with pasty or muddy complex
ions; instead of the multitudes of
nerve wrecks" "rundowns," brain
fags" and pessimists we should see
virile, optimistic throng of rosy

Those subject to sick headache, bill
iousness, nasty breath, rheumatism,

a pallid, sallow complexion and who
are constipated very often, are
urged to obtain a quarter pound OF
limestone phosphate at the drug store
which will cost but a trifle but is
sufficient to demonstrate the quick
end remarkable change in both health
and appearance awaiting those who
practice internal sanitation. We mus:
remember that inside cleanliness is
more important than outside, be-
cause the skin does not absorb impur
tiles to contaminate the blood, while

do.--AdV.
