WEAKNESS AFTER INFLUENZA. It is at this time of the year, when the weather is very changeable—hot one day and cold the next —that colds are caught and influenza becomes prevalent. Influenza invariably leaves the patient weak and with thin blood, and this anannia is very stubborn in resisting treatment. It must be corrected, however, before any cure can be considered permanent. As long as the blood remains*; thin there will continue the relapses with which most sufferers from influenza are familiar. Warmth and quiet alone give comfort, and these not for long at a time. Sleep is restless and does not refresh the nerves which are always at high tension. The best way to correct this after-effect of influenza is to build up the blood, and there is no better blood-builder than Dr Williams’ Pink Pills. As soon as Die revitalised blood courses through the system you are aware, of its soothing influence. Gradually the colour returns to the pale cheeks, appetite and digestion improve, and you are on tho road to health. Your own chemist sells Dr Williams' Pink Pills, or they will be sent, post paid, on receipt of price—3s per box : six boxes 16s 6d—by the Dr Williams’ Medicine Co., Wellington. Write for free booklet, “ Building Up the Blood."
