T00 LITTLE BLOOD The Cause of Nearly All the Every- day Allments of Life. Too little blood--that is what makes men and women look pale apd sallow and feel languid. That is what makes them drag along, always tired, never real hungry, unable to digest their food, breathless after even slight exertion, and often feei- ing that life is scarcely. worth liv- ing. The doctors tell them they are anapmic--the plain English being too little blood. More weak, anaemic people have been made strong, energetic and cheerful by taking Dr. Willlanls' Pink Pills than by any other means. The case of Mrs. A. P, Foster, Bow- den, Alta., is excellent proof of this statement. Mrs. Foster says: -- "Some years ago I was very badly run-down. My doctor Attended me for several months and then told me I had better go South to spend the winter as my blood was so poor that he feared.l.would not stand the cold of our winter.- I took his ad- vice and went to my mother's, and as soon as she saw me she said: "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are what 'you need." She got the pills for me and I began taking them. I had intended staying three months, but at the end of the second month Igame home a well woman. When the doctor saw me he sald: '"You are all right now, but don't let yourself get run-down again' or nothing will save you." Then last winter] had the influenza, which left me as weak and pale and miserable as before. Again I took Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and again they made me well and strong. 1 can gratefully recommend the pills for I feel that they have saved my lite." Weak, ailing men and women should begin taking Dr. Willians® Pink Pills to-day and note the speedy improvement that follows. You can get these pills from medicine dealers or by mail at 50 cents a box by writ- ing The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co..
