NOT TOO LATE. Is there anything more intensely pitiable than tho sig-ht of a weak, nervous, helpless woman, and yet in our small community there are many of them. Such women are not sick, but are suffering from what is commonly called poor health. They are nervous and irritable, and lack the vitality to enjoy the pleasures or support the cares of home life. Wilton's Bovo-Ferrum, the new tonic, makes weak women strong, and sick women well. It fills the arteries with rich red blood, and builds up tbe entire body with good sound flesh. All chemists and stores 2s 6d. Wade's Teething Powders for babies are soothing, reduoe fever, and prevent blotches. Price Is. — Advt. THE VITAL FORCE Of tha body is the blood. Keep the blood pure and clean, and you will be froe from sickness. Bile poisons in the blood is one of the everyday troubles of the people of the colony, Once the liver grows sluggish and fails to filter the bile poisons from the system there comes pain and trouble. The digestive syßtem is thrown out of order, and foul impurities that should be expelled find their way into the blood, and so reach the weak spots of the body. Impey's May Apple, the ideal family medicine, will keep the blood pure. It acts directly on the liver and kidneys, keeping them active and strong. Sold by chemists and storekeepers at 2s 6d. .
