It is just in her "teen age" that a girl should be getting most fun out of life. Yet so often it happens that giris of sixteen-to- twenty have, outgrown their strength are quickly tired, pale, nerv ous, generally run-down and unhappy. These are zure signs of annemis, a condition that results from thin under-nourished blood." Dr. Williams Pink Pills have corrected this in thousands of girls. Here is the personal experience at Mrs. M. M, Brown,, a young wife residing at 53, St. John's Road, Fratton, Fortsmouth, England.
"From the age of fourteen I suffered from a most obstinate form of anaemia," states Mrs. Brown."During those years of misery I was constantly having medical attention, but all to no permanent: avall.' I often had
throbbing headaches, and was so. weak that mother had to take me away from school. So things went on until I reached the aga
of eighteen. I always felt in and depressed.
It was at the suggestion of a friend that I tried Dr. Williams Pink Pills. There was dock an Improvement, and by the time I had taken, the third box, of the Plis I was a changed girl, all my allments had vanished. I am now quite well and able to thoroughly enjoy life
For climatic reasons Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are packed in glass neckless, hermetically-sealed bottler for sale in the Far East.
