WOMEN WHO WOULD
RECOVER STRENGTH
Should Try the Tonic Treatment That
Mrs. Bentley Suggests.

Mrs. William Bentley of No. 545
Arch street, New Britain, Conn, was
in condition that is common with
many women who are growing weaker
and more nervous every day and can.
not recover their strength. She says:
THE birth of my child left my sys-
TEN all rundown and my general
health broken. IL seemed each day that
my house work was more than | had
the strength to do. My nerves were on
edge most of the time and very often
/ had hard headaches. / worried over
small things and had no appetite. be-
came pale and lost some weight. One
day / read about DR.. Williams Pink
Pills in the newspaper and bought a
box. By the time / had used the first
box ! was eating heartily and feeling
so much better that | determined to
keep up the treatment. Very soon
found that / no longer had headaches,
was not worrying and that l could do
my work with no very great effort. |
think that DR.. Williams Pink Pills are
a wonderful tonic and have often rec
commended them for cases similar to
my own"
The headaches and backaches disap-
pear like magic when thin blood is
made rich and red. This is due to the
new strength and vigor that the re-
vitalized blood supplies to the nerves.
Tired women everywhere should give
DR. Williams Pink Pills trial.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or direct from the DR..
Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N.
Y, at sixty cents per box, postpaid.
