DIGESTION WORTH HAVING

Good digestion is not appreciated un-
til you lose it. Then you cannot afford
to experiment on remedies. Strong
medicines are hard on weak stomacha.
To be able to eat what you want and
TO digest it is a priceless blessing. IL
you have lost it do not be deceived by
the claims of predigested foods and
stomach tones, so-called.
There Is no tonic for the stomach
that is not tonic for every other part
Of the body. As the blood goes every
where, an improvements its condition
quickly results in Strengthening weak
organs. Rich, red blood is absolutely
necessary to digestion. If your stomach
is weak and you are troubled with gas,
sour risings in the throat, a feeling OF
pressure about the heart and palpita-
ton, try the tonic treatment with DR..
Williams Pink Pills.
So many dyspeptics have been helped
by this simple treatment that every suf-
ferer from stomach trouble should try it.

Others who have had dandruf for years say
they got a clean. healthy scalp after just a
