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 heavi-
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, i'm
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 cheeks and lips,
the brightness to the eyes and lightness
to the step.
