The blood, which normally carries nourishment' to the is the cry of the starvednerves for so and the excruciating pain you feel is the chy of the starved nerves for food. The reason why the blood fails to properly nourish the nerves is usual- ly becaqse the blood itself ds weak and thin. . When you build up the thin blood with Dr. Williams Pink Pills, you are attacking neuraglia, sciatica and kind- red disease at the root.
