Strong and Energetic Wherever 1t Is Being Tried

You see now why DIR. Williams Pink
Pills, the great tonic for the blood. are
also a great nerve builder When a nerve
becomes infiamed and painful it is
unless caused by an accident-because
the blood was not giving it the elements
of nourishment it needed. DIR. Williams
Pink Pills build up the blood, the nerves
are strengthened, the inhamms ion sub
sides and the pain yanishes.
Miss Dessa Smith, of No. % North
Buckeye street. Wooster. Ohio, says:
81 suffered with sciatica in my left
leg and hip for over a year. There were
sharp pains in the knee Joints and dull
aching pain in my hip. Whenever ] sat
down, | would be afraid to get up, for
the pain would be almost unbearable
when I moved my leg II would often
seem as though it was stiff. | dreaded
to go TO bed for then the pain would be
worse. / became very nervous and lost
weight.
Il was under the care of a doctor for
some months but could not see that he
helped me in the least. ] saw Dr. Will
lams' Pink Pills recommended so highly
that thought | would try them. T
bought few boxes and began to gain
in flesh at once and the stiffness left
me. Gradually the pains disappeared
and | was entirely well. have had no re-
turn of the trouble and can be on my
feet all day"
BY keeping the blood rich and red by
the use of DIR. Williams Pink Pills the
danger of nervous breakdowns, insomi-
MIA, nervous indigestion and other dis
orders caused by ill-nourished nerves is
greatly lessened. In children the use of
DR.. Williams Pink Pills DECREASE the

Why Good Blood Is Red.
Why are we continually being told
that good blood must be bright red I
What has color to do with the quality
just this. The oxygen in the air is the
great supporter of animal life One
business OF the blood Is TO take oxygen
from the air (which ii meets in the
lungs and deliver it to the tissues of
the body. When the blood, filled with
life sustaining oxygen, is sent out by the
heart it is bright red. When it returns.
filled with impurities, and deprived of
its oxygen, it is dark.
From this il is clear that there are
two prime requisites Of health pure air
and bright red blood-the pure air to
furnish the oxygen, the rich blood to
carry it where il is needed DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills make the blood rich
and red because they increase its power
to carry oxygen, actually making it so
much more able to carry increased life
and strength to every organ of the body.
Mrs. Hazel NJ. Cole, of 81 Washing
ton avenue, Haverhill, Mass, has great
faith in DR.. Williams Pink Pills which
she has used as tonic whenever need
ed ever since her girlhood. IL was very
nervous and run down in health" she
says, "and had terrible headaches. ] was
white, had no color at all / suffered
from hot flashes and it would seem as if
] was going to die / had dull aching
pains across the back Any little thing
would make me extremely nervous and
| could not get full nights rest.
"My mother suggested that | take DR..
Williams Pink Pills as we had used |
them at different times in the family for |
many years. | could soon see that they |
were helping me. The pills strengthened |
my nerves and built me right up.

Most people who have but small re-
serve of strength feel better in summer
than in winter. The vitality gained dur.
ing the out -of-door season carries them
through the, trying weather of winter
and early spring until there comes time
when the stored-up reserve strength is
not sufficient.
| How, then, shall we keep and add TO
the reserve of strength that means so
muchg BY taking Dr. Williams Pink
Pills, the blood and nerve tonic, to
strengthen and sustain the system so
that it can keep all the strength that it
has gained and gain more. Dr. Williams
Pink Pills build up the blood and enable
il to carry nourishment to every part of
the body. Many disorders that have
proved stubborn for years have been
reached by this tonic treatment.

Most general debility results from thin
blood. Every part of the body suffers
and you feel badly all over" When the
blood is restored and health giving
stream is going to every part of the
body you soon see the result in better
appetite, an improved digestion, brighter
eyes, better color in cheeks and lips.
Do Not Neglect Thin Blood.
In no disease is delay or neglect more
dangerous than in anemia, or poverty
Of the blood. 1t is common in young
girls and persons who are overworked or
confined within doors and makes its APP
proach in so stealthy a manner that it
is often well developed before its pres
ence is recognized.
But taken in time there is specific,
tonic medicine which increases the
number of red blood corpuscles thus en-
Aiding the blood to carry the life giving
oxygen to all the tissues of the body.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills have had UNI
bounded success in the treatment of this
stubborn disease because of this wonder
full property. The correction of anemic
conditions by DIR. Williams Pink Pills
is as certain as anything in medical
science.
