WHEN TO USE A TONIC.

Tonics are the most widely used of all medicines. They are the remedies which gradually restore the various bodily organs, muscles, and nerve cells from a lax and sluggish state to one making them capable of normal activity. Tonics impart a sense of increased wsll being and strength. They are not to be confused with stimulants which may give an immediate false strength. There are tonics for the nerves, blood, and stomach, but undoubtedly the most useful is one having a combined effect and generally benefiting the system. In all forms of weakness, when energy and vitality are needed when the blood is thin and weak and when the nerves are run down and have lost their tone, a tonic is prescribed. Amongst tonics, the best known is the much spoken of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. These pills have established a. high reputation as a blood builder and nerve tonic. They make the thin blood rich and red, carry nourishment to weak and inflamed nerves, increase the appetite, and make digestion normal, correct sleeplessness and most forms of headaches. Try them for any trouble caused by thin blood or weak nerves, such as anaemia, rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica, lumbago, indigestion, sick headache, or St. Vitus' dance.
