HEALTH INSURANCE
Some people are naturally thin.
There is also a natural pallor but most
people who are both thin and pale
are far from well and they need a
tonic.
Many people neglect to take a
tonic until they get so sick that a tonic
Is not sufficient just because the de
mand of the debilitated body is not
insistent enough. The pale face, weak
nerves, enfeebled digestion are neg
lected until the point where pain or
actual breakdown requires medical
treatment. A tonic taken in time is
the best health insurance. It sup
ports the overtaxed system, the wor
ried nerves until nature can make re
pairs.
Build up the blood and you are
sending renewed health and strength
.0 eve-v part of the body. The appe
tite is improved, the digestion is toned
up, there is new color in the cheeks
and lips, you worry less, become good
natured where before you were irrit
able and you find new joys in living.
Tonic treatment is useful in dys
pepsia, rheumatism, anemia and nerv
ous disorders. In many cases it is all
the medical treatment that is re
quired.
Free booklets on the blood; nerves
and diet, will be sent on request by the
Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenec
tady, N. Y. Your own druggist sells
