Po: Nervous people who have not yet developed a disease that can be re- cognized and treated by the medical profession have the greatest trouble in finding relief. Irritation, head- aches, sleeplessness, nervous dyspep- sia, all these discomforts make life miserable, but are endured rather than run a doctor's bill without &- finite hope of an improved condition. ,Every sufferershould 'know the danger f such a condition to the o nervous system. Nervous debility and even paralysis may result if the tone of the nerves is not. restored. The one, big fact that brings hope and relief is that the nerves can be restored hyo building up the blood. It cannot be too often repeated that only through the blood can nourish- ment or medicine reach the nerves. Dr:'Williams' Pink Pills make the blood rich and red and quickly 're store vitality and energy to a weak, nervous s3 tem. A nervous person Who gives these pills a, trial, is almost ;certain to see good results; and what. more, the benefit will be lasting he- lSAIrse the trouble i., attacked at its ' "ilQt; building up the bud 9,, J toren Ole nerve force.

Since early morning, writes ;,l Gerald Brandon, ward sixty-seven had seethed with suppressed excitement, for this was to`be a red-letter day in its history. The calmest patient was Paul Villiers, who occupied bed No. 9—and yet` M. Villiers had special reason to be excited, for he was the cause of "Papa" ,ioffre's expected visit. After lunch the ward was furbished up by 14 petite miss until not a speck dust remained. of du e ined.
