CHILDREN WITH ST. VITUS. Many children have been called awkward or have been punished in school for not keeping still or for dropping things, when the trouble was St. Vitus' dance. This disease is most common between- the ages of 6 and 14 years. It is caused by thin blood which fails to carry sufficient nourishment to the nerves, and and the child becomes listless and inattentive. Then twitching of the muscles and jerking of the limbs and body follow. ' St. Vitus' dance is cured by building 'up the blood. The proper treatment is to remove the child from all excitement, stop school work and give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills according to instructions. Try a short treatment with these strengthening pills and watch the colour return to pale cheeks and lips ; _ see how the worn nerves recover their poise; note how much less irritating the children become. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills aro a blessing to nervous people everywhere— men as well as women, because' they build up the blood and strengthen the nerves. They lighten the cares of life because they give you new strength to meet them. Further information on the tonic treatment of "Diseases of the Nervous System" is contained in a useful booklet which will be sent free tp any applicant by the Dr. Williams' Medioine Co,, Box , 845, Wellington.—Advt.
