Thin, Weak Blood During Development
May Easily Cause a Life of
Misery and Sufferlny.
At no time In her life doea a wowian
stand in greater need of pure red blood,
and the serength which It alonu can give
her, than when she is developing into
womanhood. It is then tliat any in-
herited tendency to anaemia, chlorosis,
or green sickness, needs only tho slight-
est encouragement to rapidly develop.
This it too often receives for not all
girls can take the proper euro of their
health but many are confined within
doors , are overworked, do not havo
inough nourishing food, and are de-
reaaed by worry and cares. All of these
•ondltlons quickly Impoverish the blood
and are among the moat common exist-
ing causes of sickness In growing girls.
If at any time during her development
a girl finds that her strength is failing
and she is becoming pale and nervous,
bis no ambition and Lfi languid, it la a
certain sign that her blood is falling to
meet the demands mode upon It, because
it Is Impure and thin.
To Insure perfect development and
health, steps must be taken at once to
strengthen the system by building up
and purifying the blood. Dr. Williams'
I'lnk Pills do this so well and havo
cured so many cases of chlorosis and
anaemia that they may Justly be called
a specific for these common diseases of
girlhood.
Mrs. J. R. Seton, of No. 1122 Jasper
avenue, Joplln, Mo., In telling how Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills ewred her of chloro-
sis, proves the worth of this blood-bulld-
Ing medicine.
"I was palo and very delicate when I
approached womanhood," she says, "and
I to quit school. Chlorosis developed
I my health was so bad that I suffer-
ed for two years. I was thin and lost In
weight. I was tired out all of the time,
had no ambition, and every montn
would be miserable. I bad such terrible
headaches that I thought I would go
crazy. My stomrfch was out ef order
and my appetite wan poor. My health
became worse all of the time.
"I was treated bv several different
doctors and all of them said I had
chlorosis or green sickness. I did not
get any relief from their treatment and
my mother finally became discouraged
at their failure to help me and had me
try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I could
see a quick change for the better and
gained rapidly until I was cured. I am
strong and healthy and do all of my
work. 1 always have a good word to
say for Dr Williams' Pink Pills."
Mothers should make certain of their
daughters' health by bef.mmig the use
of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills at the (first
signs of Impoverished blQOd. Further
Information about chlorosis and anae-
mia Is given In the booklet, "Diseases
of the Blood," which will be sent r u«
upon request.
