Factory, Battle Creek, Michigan.
From the Maine Farmer, Auffueta.
There are many women all over the
land who are earning a living by the
use of the needle.
Confinement in
close rooms and the trying nature of
their work often causes them to grow
pale and wan and to experience a feel
ing of constant weariness. This goes
on, sometimes, until nature rebels and
health breaks down.
There is one
way and only one way to restore the
impared vitality, and that is to
strengthen the worn out nerves and
build up and nourish the impoverish
ed blood. If the blood is kept healthy
and rich and the nerves strong, new
life and energy will soon be felt.
This was the experience of Mrs. Addie
R. Holt, a dressmaker, of No. 73
Bridge street, Augusta, Me.
She
says:
“About five years ago I began to
experience a worn out feeling. Some
times I would lie in bed for a day or
so. but my dressmaking work obliged
me to keep up, even when I did not
feel able to be about. I suffered from
female troubles and last spring I had
rheumatism in my left arm and also a
pain in my left side in the region of
my heart.
“In August a friend recommended
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale Peo
ple and I began taking them imme
diately. I commenced to improve in
about two weeks and in three months
my weight increased from 121 to 133
pounds.
Since taking the pills I
have had no return of the pain in my
arm nor near my heart.
“I am still taking Pink Pills for
Pale People and I am gladly recom
mending them to all who say that
anything ails them.”
