Thin blood !a one of the most com- mon causes of stomach trouble. It affects the dlg«istion very quickly. The glands that furnish the digestive fluids [ are diminished in th^r activity, the i stomach musclee are weakened and there is a loss of nerve force. In this state of health nothing wi'l more qul'cldy restoro the appatite, disostlco j and normal nutrition than ii<ju,l. rich. i red blood. Dr. Williams' I'lnk PIU» act directly Ion the blood, making tt rich ar.d red, I and this enriched blood strengthens jweak UcTve*:. stimulates tii^d musoles I and awakens to normal activity the glands that aupply the dlgeeiive fluJd.-<. This Is shown by an Improved ap^petite. and soon the effect of these blood en- rlcJitng pilU Is evident throughout the who;* system. Yon find that what you eat d<' '.-< net disuesa yt>u. ati<l that you art vii;orous Instead of IrritabW and Ustl«e9. If your appetite is fickle. !f you have any of the dlstressiiii pains and symptxjms of iudlgejstion. you should at once take Dr. Williams' Pink Pilile and prrfit by the better condition in which they wiU put your blood.
