ASPRING DANCER Many People Weaken Their Systems by Dosing with Purgative Medicines. A spring medicine is a necessity. Nature demands it as an aid to enrich, ing ttie blood and parrying off the ilia parities that have acouuxalated during the indoor life of the winter months. Thousands of people recognizing the necessity for a spring medicine, dose themselves with harsh griping pnrga Lives. This is a mistake. Ask any doctor and he wilt toll you that the use of purgative naediciees weaken the stsyam and cannot possibly cure disease. In. the spring the system needs building up --purgatives weaken. The blood should be made rich, red and pure -par • gatives cannot do this. What is needed is a tonic, and the best tonic medical serener) has yet devised is Dr. Williams' Piuk Pills, Every dose of his medi. cine actually makes new rich blood, and this new blood et,• r gthens every organ and every part; ' the body. That is why these Pills nish pimples and unsightly skiu r' itimes. That is why they cure head.,. es, ba: kaehes, rhe.,. mutism, neuralgia, and a host of other troubles that come from poor watery blood. That is why the men and women who use 17r. Williams' Piuk Pills eat well and sleep well and feel active and strong, Miss Mabel Svunott, Lisle, Oat , says: -"I was pale and weak and suffered greatly from headnchee. and I found nothing to help me until I began taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. These have completely restored my health and I bless the day I began taking them." But be sure you get the genuine Pills with the full name "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People" on the wrapper around each box -all other so-called pink pills are fraudulent imitations.
