Halifax Sends Out a Message of Help
to Many People..
Halifax. N.S, Dec. 15. --When inter-
viewed at her - home at 194 Argyle St.,
Mrs, Baverstock was quite willing to
talk of her peculiarly unfortunate case.
"I was always `blue' and depressed,
felt weak, Ianguid and utterly unfit
for any work. My stomach..' was so
disordered that' I had no appetite.
What I dideat • disagreed. I suffered
greatly frons- dizziness and sick -head-
ache and. feared• a nervous breakdown.
Upon my druggist's ,recommendation
1 used. Dr. Hamilton's Pills.
"I felt better at once. Every day I
improved. In six weeks i was a well
woman, cured completely' after differ-
ent physicians had failed to - help me.
It is for this reason that I strongly
urge sufferers with stomach or diges-
tive troubles to. use Dr, Hamilton's
Pills."
Dr. Hamilton's • Pills strengthen -the
stomach,' improve 'digestion, strength-
en the nerves and restore debilitated
systems to health. By cleansing the
blood of long-standing impurities, by
bringing the system. to a high point
of vigor, they effectually chase away
weariness,- depression • and disease.
