Girls Who
Cause Anxiety
A WARNING TO ALL MOTHERS
Many mothers have reason to be worried about their daughters, especial- ly those in their teens, for it is in these trying
that years
anaemia, often develops. The anxious mother sees her daughter gradually droop and grow fragile, bloodless and nervous.
These conditions indicate plainly that Nature is calling for more nourishment than the blood can supply, and signs of distress are evidenced by dull eyes, pallid cheeks, a languid step, fits of depression, an aching back, periodical headaches, and a dislike for proper nourishing food...
The watchful mother will recognise these signs of anaemia, and take prompt steps. to give her daughter the new blood her systom is clamouring for by giving her Dr. Williams pink pills. Thousands of unhappy, feeble, anaemic girls have been transformed into robust women through the good red blood these pills infuse into the system.
