A skilful doctor attended me, but although _ carefully treated I did not recover.- I tried several medicines said to be useful in anaemia, but without effect. A friend then advised me to use Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people. I began taking’them over; a year ago, and soon experienced improvement; by persevering with them I was restored to perfect health. Now my complexion is greatly improved, I am strong and well, have a good appetite, add sleep soundly. My brother; who ■used to suffer severely from sick'headaches, has also been greatly benefited by Dr. Williams’ pink pills.” Bloodlessness—called in scientific language amend a—is the cause of many ailments which afflict young ladies.
