There is no hidden cause tfor its presence nor is it sodden in its attack. Any person, who is over-worked, or subject to any great wory or excitement, or undergoes some long-continued strain on the body, is liable to become debilitated unless the blood is kept pure and rich. Such unusual conditions call for more nourishment than the blood can supply ahd paleness, poor appetite, unrefreshing sleep, backaches, loss of spirits and a general tired-out which follow, are simply a call for a blood tonic and builder. But sometimes what is mistaken for simple debility is a more serious disorder, anaemia perhaps, or a breaking down of the nervous system. By taking a tonic that is also a specific for many disorders of the blood and nerves, the threatening disease may be prevented.

Such a tonic is Dr. Williams Pink Fills and their value in the treatment of general dability lies in their direct response to the needs of the blood. Their work is to make new-blood. That they do this well is shown by the gradual disappearance of the symptoms and the return of color and health. They lay the foundation for permanent health in the future.

Nothing that I ate seemed to agree with my stomach and I had no appetite. The least exertion entirely used me up. "This was my condition for years, except that I often grew weaker. It was during such a spell that I began to use Dr.

Williams' Pink Pills. I had read about them in a paper. I felt so much better after taking them for a while, that I continued their use until cured. Since then I have always kept them; in the house.
