This condition is usually met. with in.anaemic, debilitated people. An eminent practitioner explains the cause of this; The vessels of tho brain, having lost their tone, cannot contract and regulate the flow of blood through the brain. When one in this, condition is in ah upright position, the upper parts of the body, and more particularly the team,, owing to the laxity of the. vessels, are drained of blood; But when tho patient lies down the reverse is tho caso, and'the- blooil flows; too freely through tho brain and the imagination, is excited. Iu such casoa it is necessary to restore tone by tho .uso of tonics, ..and it is advisable for anyone who is debilitated and run down to tako a course of Dr. Williams' Fink Pills. They,inoreaso the blood supply and , impart tone to tho whole system. Sleep becomes sounder, and more rc : freshing, your .worries become loss, anil your .work lighter.'
