THE TEACHER'S EOE
A LIFE ALWAYS THREATENED BY
NERVOUS PROSTRATION
On Wk limits Down from Sts Trars of
Overwork Tell llow fibs Kstapeti
Misery of Knfiireeil Idletiesa
' I tad been teaching in tho city
school steadily for six years” said Miss
Janies whose recent return to t lie work
from which she was driven by nervous
collapse has attracted atteutiou “They
were greatly overcrowded especially in
tlio primary department of which 1 had
charge and I hud been doing the work
of two teachers The strain was too
much for nty nerves and two years ago
the crisis came
I was prostrated mentally and phy-
sically sent in my resignation and never
expected to be ablo to resume work It
seemed to me then that I was the most
miserable woman on cnMh I was tor-
tured by nervous headaches worn out by
inability to sleep and had so little
blood tlint I was ns white as chalk
“After my active life it was hard to
bear idleness and terribly discouraging
to keep paying ont the savings of years
for medicines which didiuo uo good”
"How did you get back your health?”
“A bare chance and a lot of faith led
me to a cure After I had suffered for
many mouths and when I was on the
very vergoof despair I happened to read
an account of some enres effected by
Dr Williams’ Pink Pills The state-
ments were so convincing that I some
bow felt assured that these pills would
help me Most people I think buy ouly
one box for a trial hat I purchased six
boxes at once and when I hail used
them up I was indeed well and had no
need of more medicine
“Dr Williams' Pink Pills enriched my
thin blood gave nto back iny sleep re-
stored my appetite gave me strength to
walk long distances without fatigue in
fact freed me from all my numerous ail-
ments I have already taught for several
months aud I cannot say enough in
praise of Dr Williams’ Pink Pills”
Miss Margaret M James is now living
at No 123 Clay street Dayton Ohio
Many of her fellow teachers hnve also
used Dr Williams’ Pink Pills and are
enthusiastic about their merits Sonud
digestion strength ambition and cheer-
ful spirits quickly follow their use They
are sold iu every drug store !s the
