Almost every woman at the head of a home meets daily with little worries in her household affairs. They may be too small to notice an hour after- wards, but it is the same little worries that break down the health of so many women. Their effect may be noticed In nervous headaches, fickle appetite, indigestion, pains in the side or back, and a sallow complexion. To those afflicted in this way Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, by improving and purifying the blood, bring speedy relief. Among thousands of weak women who have tested and proved the merits of this medicine is Mrs. Gustave Hutt, Brux- elles, ruxelles, Mau., who says:—"It is with profound thanks that I write to tell you what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have done for me. Before I began tak- ing these pills I was weak, and my blood thin and Watery. I was so thin that I looked litre a skeleton. I was troubled with headaches and indiges- tion, did not sleep well, and was ter- ribly oonstipated. I decided to try Dr. Williams' Plait Pills and I soon found that they were just what I needed. Under their use my appe- tite rettu'uetl, my food digested pro- perly, and I slept better at night, and gained in flesh as well as strength. The result is that now I am a per- fectlyhealthy woman, and there is no doubt that it due to the use of Dr. .Williams' Fink Pills, a supply of which 1 now always keep in the house, and I would advise other women to do the same," You can get these pills through any dealer in medicine, or by mail at 50 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co Brockville, Ont.
