WHAT
A GREAT SURGEON SAID ABOUT WOMEN.
One of the greatest surgeons said that he never went to bed without feeling thankful for not having been horn, a woman. A woman's health handicaps her, almost always. She has pains and disabilities which do not afflict men. Nature does not give her a fair chance. Her blood is more often thin and poorer than a man's, and she sften neglects the first beginnings of ill-health.
Many of the fair sex who seem- ed destined to a life of frequent suffering have been freed entirely from their ailments, through the wonderful blond-making qualities of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Wo- men make too light of their troubles. Many a housewife tolls all day with a pain in her back and side, a burning headache, and a sense of having no spine-left.
What a pity that women will not listen to their friends whom Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have saved from this misery. These pills ought to be taken in the first years of womanhood: they may make all the difference to the health of a lifetime. But whenever a woman suffers they will help her-in youth, middle-age, and after-life.
All women should take advan tage of the health-help of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Of chemists. or post free, $1.50 per bottler 88.) for 6 bottles, from Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., 60, Kiangse Road, Shanghai..
