GRIP AND NEURASTHENIA

There is form of neurasthenia that
follows the grip. Doctors call it "post-
grippal' neurasthenia. One of the
foremost medical authorities of New
York city in lecture in the interna-
tional clinics, said
Broadly speaking, every victim of
the grip will suffer from post-grippal
neurasthenia also. Lowering of ner-
vous tone with increased irritability is
the most striking effect of the disease,
languor OF mind and body, disturbed,
fitful sleep and vague pains in the head
and elsewhere. The treatment calls
for res, and tonic.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills, non-alco-
holic tonic, are particularly suited for
building up the blood and strengthen
ing the nerves after an attack of the
grip. The rich, red blood expels the
lingering germs from the system and
transforms respondent grip victims in
to cheerful, healthy, happy men and
women.
If you have had the grip get box
of DR.. Williams Pink Pills now from
the nearest drug store and begin the
treatment at once.
On request we will send you a free
pamphlet, Building Up the Blood"
which contains chapter on the grip.

Canadian Minister of Militia. Col. Bull
ock's battalion is the 237th, and will
consist of about 1900 officers and men,
with headquarters in Halifax, Nova SEQ

talon to be raised in Eastern Canada,
and is designed for the hundreds of Am
orleans who have been living in that dis
trict. and the numbers who will naturally
cross the border line from New England
to join them. Of course. no effort is
ever made to induce Americans to cross
to Canada for purposes of enlistment,
for this would be violation of neutral
ity.
The watchword of the American Lee
glon is ''We'll fight for international
Honor and Justice; as We would for the
Stars and Stripes" Every man to enter
must be an American, either native
born, naturalized, or a Canadian with
American parentage. They are said to
be the best fed, best paid and best look
ed after men In any army, and married
man receives an equivalent of about
$500 monthly if private. They are
provided with distinctive badges and are
certainly regarded as "heroes" among
all Canadians, who honor them for COM
ing to help fight battle not their own,
simply because their consciences tell
them it is the right thing to do.
