NervesUnstTung
By Rush Of Work
This Lowell Man Found a Rem
edy in the Tonic Treatment
and Recommends 1t.

Nature needs a little help under the
conditions OF physical and mental
strain in which many of US are liv-
ing.
In these war times we all want to
keep ourselves at the highest point of
efficiency to be able to do our share
in the many demands for service that
are made on all. Unless you stop the
mental fatigue and build up your
nerves You will be fortunate if you es-
cape nervous breakdown, some form
Of paralysis or other severe nervous
disorder.
MI Thomas Wagner Of 81 Marshall
street. Lowell. Mass, suffered a nerv-
Gus breakdown, due to overwork
The strain of a rush Of work at the
mill, due to war orders, was getting
on my nerves" says Mr.. Wagner,
and I had stomach trouble. Every
night l felt tired and all in but l
could not sleep. My appetite was poor
and | could not digest food. | was
uneasy all the time. l never put in
such nights before in my life. l was
restless, and rolled and tossed about
in bed. When l got up did not feel
like working.
"A friend in the mill recommended
them a trial. I soon noticed that they
were helping me. l can eat better
and have more ambition. My nerves
are stea.lier and I rest we'll at night
| certainly can recommend these pills
after what they have done for me-"
With sufficient rest your nerves will
build themselves up. Falling in this,
you need something that will
strengthen and sustain them while
they are kept moderately at work.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are probably
uneouallei for this purpose. They
build I'D the nerves in the only pos
sible way by enriching the blood with
the elements the nerves need. The
treatment is one Of nutrition Of the
nerve cells. requiring non alcoholic
tonic and DR.. Williams Pink Pills
we're cases that every sufferer is JUS
tilted in giving them a trial for any
form Of nervous debility. They con-
tain no opiate or harmful drug.
There has been no increase in the
price of Dr. Williams Pink Pills. Your
own druggist can supply you or the
pills will be sent by mail. postpaid,
on receipt of price, so cents per box,
six boxes for $3.50 by the DR.. Will
lians Medicine Co.. Schenectady. n.

will be sent free on reouest.-Adv.

Although there are only eight
great game counties in Maine" said
Willis E. Parsons. commissioner of
inland fisheries and game, there are
fish, game birds and even deer in
goodly numbers in every county Of
the state and moose in more than
half Of them to be preserved. Inas-
much as there are less than IS active
wardens to guard and protect more
than $1,000 square miles of territory,
Il would seem reasonable that all
good citizens should aid in every
possible way to preserve and increase
the fish and game Of the State. The
true sportsmen and honest guides are
always OF assistance In creating a
healthy sentiment in favor of the law
and often of practical benefit to the
wardens In the discharge of their du-
ties. ! believe the better class in
every county is more determined
than ever before that indiscriminate
slaughter of fish and game shall be
stamped out"
