RESISTANCE TO DISEASE

Debility is loss OF vitality, not
affecting any one part of the body par
ticularly but the system generally. 1t
is dangerous because it reduces the
body's resistance to disease.
When debility follows acute diseases,
convalescence is slow and the strength
does not return as it should. An at
tack of the grip often resultsin debility
that persists for months. Every
recognizes that the remedy for debility
is to build up the blood because the
blood goes to every part of the body and
an improvement in its condition is
quickly felt throughout the system.
The problem in every case is to find
something that will enrich the blood.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills suit most
peoples need because they are non-al-
coholic and they really build up the
blood and strengthen the nerves. DR..
Williams Pink Pills are useful for grow
ing children and for men and women
whose nervous energy has been over
drawn. Try them whenevery your blood
g thin.
Your druggist sells DR.. Williams
Pink Pills or they will be sent by mail,
postpaid, on receipt of price, so cents
per box, six boxes $3.50 by the DR..
Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady,
NY. Write today for free booklets on
the blood and nerves.

The Capture of Trebizond.

The capture by the Russians of the Turkish
Black sea port of Trebizond at this particular
time, is of tremendous significance. year
ago it would have been exaggeration to lay
such stress upon the capture of town of 49,
900 in Asia Minor. Today, straws blowing be-
fore the wind cannot be ignored. Trebizond's
fall points the way toward Russian victory
over the Turks. Turkish defeat points the
way toward the first break in the alliance of
the Central Powers, and perceptible weaken
ing of either side in the gigantic confess points
the way toward peace.-Brooklyn Eagle.
