said: - . "
"I had been Buffering with stomach
trouble for about two years. Every

and three O'clock in the afternoon I

did, not sit down I would fall. That
sensation usually lasted for about an
hour and when noon cause I had no
appetite for lunch.
"I saw Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
Pale People advertised in the daily
papers about a year ago and decided
to try them. I felt relief from the
drat box and after I had taken six
boxes my disease was cured. I do not
take them now but always keep them
