Why Thousands Of People Are Ill With Malaria.

In many parts of the East as well as in other parts of the world one of the greatest menaces to health is malaria. This disease has its origin in the blood of the victim into which are introduced parasites through the bite of an in- fected mosquito. Much has been done to fight this fever-spreading germ, but the task is a tremendous one for it has been estimated that the offspring of cne female mosquito may run into millions.

The malarial parasite in the blood destroys the haemoglobin, which con- veys the life-giving oxygen from the lungs and nutriment from the digestive organs to every cell in the body.

It is because of their unique ability to create rich red blood, and increase the number of red corpuscles and the haemoglobin, that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have proved so successful in the treatment of malaria. The mainten- ance of an adequate, supply of pure, surest healthy blood is. likewise, the way to prevent an attack of this weakening fever.

Other health troubles which ́ ́ have their origin in a weak, depleted-state of the blood such as digestive disorders, nerye weakness, rheumatism, pains in the back and limbs, loss of energy and physical strength, as well as the aches and pains peculiar to women, usually. quickly respond to treatment with Dr. Williama Pink, Pills. It is well worth. your while to take a course of this world-renowned tonic remedy, if you are not feeling as well as you would wish. All chemists can supply you,
