feverish activity and higher quotations

PALE WIVES AND MOTHERS

Many women who had good color in
their girlhood grow pale and colorless
when they become wives and mothers.
When the fading color in cheeks and
lips is accompanied by loss of bright
ness in the eyes and an increasing heayi-
ness in the step, the cause is to be sought
in the state of the blood.
A hundred causes may contribute to
the condition of thin blood that's known
as anemia. Overwork, lack of outdoor
exercise, insufficient rest and sleep, im-
proper diet, these are few of them.
The important thing is to restore the
blood to normal, to build it up so that
the color will return to checks and lips,
the brightness to the eyes and hghtness
to the step.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are the great
blood builder and invigorator. They be.
gin at once to increase the red corpuscles
in the blood and the new blood carries
strength and health to every part of the
body. Appetite increases, digestion be-
comes more perfect, energy and ambition
return.

YOU CAN'T FIND ANY
DANDRUFF, AND HAIR
STOPS COMING OUT
Save Your Hair! Make 1t Thick, Wayy,
Glossy and Beautiful at
Once

Try as you will, after an application o
| Danderine, you cannot find a single trac'
of dandruif or falling hair and your scalI
win not itch, but what will please yol
most will be after few weeks use
when you see new hair, fine and downy al
iirst---yes- but really new hair growing
all over the scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately doubles
the beauty of your hair. No difference
how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just
moisten a cloth with Danderine and care
fully draw il through your hair, taking
one small strand at time. The effect is
immediate and amazing your hair will
be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an
appearance of abundance; an incompar-
able luster, softness and luXuriance, the
beauty and simmer of true hair health.
Get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or toilet
counter, and prove that your hair is as
pretty and soft as any-that it has been
neglected or injured by careless treat
ment. A 25-cent bottle will double the
beauty of your hair.Ady.

DIRTlNIE HOT WAITER
Tiff YOU DESIRE AZ
ROSY COMPLEXION
Says we can't help but look
better and feel better
after an inside bath.

To look ones best and feel ones best
is to enjoy an inside bath each morning
TO flush from the system the previous
days waste, sour lamentations and poi
sonous toxins before il is absorbed intC
the blood. just as coal, when it burns
leaves behind certain amount of incom,
bustible material in the form of ashes
so the food and drink. taken each day
leave in the alimentary organs certain
amount OF indigestible material, which II
not eliminated, forms toxins and poisons
which are then sucked into the blood
through the very ducts which are intend
ed to suck in only nourishment to sus-
tain the body.
Ii you want to see the glow OF
healthy bloom in YOU cheeks, to see your
skin get clearer and clearer, you are told
to drink every morning upon arising a
glass of hot water with teaspoonful Of
limestone phosphate in it, which is a
harmless means of washing the waste
material and toxins from the stomach,
liver, kidneys and bowels, thus cleansing,
sweetening and purifying the entire ALI
mentary tract, before putting more food
into the stomach.
Men and women with sallow skins,
liver spots, pimples or pallid complexion,
also those who wake up with coated
tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, others
who are bothered with headaches, bilious
spells, acid stomach or constipation,
should begin this phosphated hot water
drinking and are assured of very pro-
nounced results in one or two weeks.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
plate costs very little at the drug store
but is sufficient to demonstrate that just
as soap and hot water cleanses, purifies
and freshens the skin on the outside,
30 hot water and limestone phosphate act
On the inside organs. We must always
consider that internal sanitation is vast
y more important than outside cleanli
ness, because the skin pores do not abb
;orb impurities into the blood, while the
,owel pores do.--Adv.

TIRED WORKING MEN
A Local Druggist Suggests Remedy for
Overworked, Rundown Men

The following letter from Manager
Hodes recounts the experience and con-
dition of many Barre men. Read this let
ter and our offer which follows:
Brooklyn, N. \. u am a general office
manager and became so nervous and
rundown in health that lost my appe-
lite and finally my health broke down
completely, largely because of oyerwork.

remedies, without help. | saw Vinol adj
vertised and soon after taking it no.
ticed an improvement. ! now have a
hearty appetite, sleep better, feel better
and have gained considerable in weight. =
Samuel Hodes, sol Stone avenue.
The reason Vinol is 50 successful in
such cases is because it contains the three
oldest and most famous tonics, viz.--the
medicinal elements of fresh cod livers
without oil, peptonate of iron and beef
peptone.
We ask every rundown, overworked
man in Barre to try a bottle of Ninol,
with the understanding that their money
will be returned if it fails to help them
as it did Mr.. Hodes.
