HEALTH WRECKED THROUGH
LA GRIPPE.
it Generally Leaves the Patient
,Debilitated and an Easy Victim
to Other Diseases.
One of the foremost medical writers
says: "It is astonishing the number of
people who have been crippled in health
for years after an attack of la grippe
or influenza." The real danger f
this disease, which sweeps over nada
every winter, is during con escence,
when the characteristic ptoms, the
fever the cata .rh, headache and
the depression of . smith pass away.
Grip leaves b '• it weakened vital
powers, thin ood, impaired digestion
and over -sensitive nerves -a condition
that makes the system an easy prey to
pneumonia, bronchitis, rheumatism,
nervous prostration and even consump-
tion. It is a condition that calls most
emphatically for a tonic for the blood
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a tonic es-
pecially adapted to meet this need as
they purify and enrich the blood. They
tone up the nerves and give vigor.
strength and health to the debilitated
system. Mrs Howard D. Chaffey;
Indian Island, N. B., says. "For sev-
eral winters in succession I was attack-
ed by la grippe which left me weak and
badly run down. In each case I used
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills with the most
beneficial results. Last winter when
the trouble was again prevalent I took
the precaution of fortifying my system
with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and ess
caped, the trouble, while many of my
neighbors were down with it. In fact
I enjoyed the best of health ell spring
and feel sure this medicine will so forti-
fy the system as to prevent the trouble,"
These Pills are sold by all medicine
dealers or may be had by mail at 50
cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from
The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock-
ville, Ont.
