Personality
What is it?
Porsonality, that mysterious, attractive force, of which the possessors are so envied, has puzzled the paychologists for ages. Does it depend on good looks or smart wearing apparel, or is it the radiation of some subtle quality of the mind? It is stated authoritatively to be simply the expression of perfect mental and physical potse. In other words-vitality-good bonith!
That theory seems legical, for strong, attractive personality is usually found in the vigerous, healthy type of person. It is rarely seen in debilitated people.
*
And the first essential to health, vitality and attractive personality is an abundant supply of pure blood.
Insuficient, thin or impure Blood is the cause of low vitality and also of such ailments aN NETVOUS- dobility, digestive trouble, rheumatism, general weakness and anaemia. But such conditions readily give way to a short course of Dr. Willame Pink Pills. This world-famed blood and nerve toniè remedy Increases and purifies the blood supply rapidly and permanently and has been recom-
mended for nearly fifty years.
