Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Proved to Be
Just the Tonic to Restore Her to
Health, Strength and Happiness.
Br. Williams' Pink Pills have made so
many remarkable cures in serious cases
that people are liable to overlook their
value as a tonic for the blood and nerves
in debility and general run-down condi
tions. That such conditions are the cause of
much .misery and unhappineo is fully
known to those who suffer from them
J and the need of curing them is as vital
' j l r r l . i , i
a in reiici irom aiseases witii nigner
Bounding names. We commend the fol
lowing statement to those who suffer
from any form of debility resulting from
weak, thin blood or shattered nerves.
Mrs. Mary II. Taft, of 'o. 314 How
ard street, Petaluma, Cal., has found Dr.
Williams' Pink Pilla to be the best tonic
that she has ever used. She says :
"About fifteen years ago, when living
In Toronto, Canada, I became generally
run down and felt 'miserable for years.
I was tired all of the time and didn't
want to work or do anything at all. My
appetite was not very good and I was
trun and pale. I suffered from sick head
aches a great deal and was nervous.
"I was treated by a doctor for some
time and tried several tonics but without
help. A friend recommended Dr. Wil
liams' Pink Pills to me and I took several
boxes. I soon began to feel much better,
my appetite came back and the benefit
continued until I was cured. I have
taken Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a number
of times since as I think they are about
the best tonic one carrtake."
The tonic action of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills is direct because they make new
blood which carries health and strength
to every part of the body. This pure,
new blood tones up the weak stomach,
strengthens the exhausted nerves and
enables every part of the body to per
form its work.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are recom
mended whenever a tonic for the blootl
and nerves is needed. They have cured
ansemia, chlorosis, rheumatism, stomach
trouble, and the after-effect? of the grip
and fevers. The tonic treatment with
these pills is fully described in our diet
booklet and "Diseases of the Blood,"
which will be sent free upon request.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold bv all
druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on
receipt of price, 50 cento per box ; six
boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.
