CAUSED BY THIN BLOOD
Many people think they have kidney
trouble becaufee they have backache but
more backache is caused by overstrained
and undernourished muscles than by
anything else. In such cases the blood
needs building up.
Many rheumatic people suffer pains
that could be avoided by building up tho
blood. When rheumatism is associated
with thin blood the rheumatism cannot
lie cured to stay cured until the blood is
built up.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills build up the
blood and sufferers from backache would
do well to try thistreatment before giving
way to worry over a fancied organic dis
ease. Rest and tho tonic treatment with j
I)r. Williams' Pink Pills will correct most
forms of backache, even rheumatic.
For people who work too hard or dance
100 much and sleep too little, better habits
luid a course of treatment with Dr. Wil
liams' Pink Pills are all that ia needed
to drive away the pains and aches that
are warnings of a coming breakdown.
Two books, "Building Up the Blood"
and "Nervous Disorders," 'will be sent
iree, if you are interested, by the Dr.
Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady,
H. Y. You can get Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills at the nearest drug store or by mail,
ocstpaid, on receipt of price,6o cents per
box; Bix boxes, $2,50
