Don't Give In To Indigestion!

It is not necessary to ask the indi- gestion sufferer if he has taken any- thing for it. That is a foregone con- clusion; but so many so-called 'cures' are merely temporary palliatives.

There is one way to overcome indi- gestion which has given immense and permanent satisfaction to innumerable formerly chronic dyspeptics throughout the world, and that is tonic treatment through the blood by means of Dr. Williams Pink Pills.

It is from the blood that the digestive juices are obtained; it is from the blood that the stomach, liver and other diges- tive organs derive the power to perform their daily functions. And as a blood purifier, blood maker and blood tonic, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have stood pre-eminent for over half a century.

Thus, in a few words, is explained the reason for Dr.. Williams' Pink Pills' success in stomach, ailments. Prove their value for yourself. Your chemist 'sells,
