YOU CAN HAVE PINK CHEEKS

What causes the color to fade from
pink cheeks and red lips? In word
it is thin blood.
When the fading color in cheeks and
lips is accompanied by loss of bright
ness in the eyes and an increasing
heaviness 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 is
known as anemia. Overwork, lack of
outdoor exercise, insufficient rest and
sleep, improper diet, these are few
of them. The important thing is to re-
store the blood to normal, to build it
I'D so that the color will return to
cheeks and lips.

blood builder and invigorator. They be-
gin at once to increase the red corpus
Giles in the blood and the new blood car

of the body. Appetite increases, diges-
ton becomes more perfect, energy and
ambition return. :.
