POISONS THAT IRRITATE,
When the delicate machinery of the body is not working harmoniously, poisons are retained that should be expelled. These may accumulate in the tissues and cause irritation. Should this irritation affect joints or muscles you have rheumatism; if a nerve becomes inflamed you have neuralgia; nguo and favor prove the presence of the geruis of malaria.
But if the system is kept toned up with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and no body- poisons are retained, foods that once distressed you will be harmless, exposure to damp and cold will bring no rheumatism and neuralgia, and even germ diseases need hardly be dreaded.
The lowering of the tone of the system which results from thin blood is easy to recognise. Weakness is always present, a tendency to porapiro and fatigue easily, ringing in the ears, black spote passing before the-oyos, wonk back, dizziness, and unrefreshing sleep. These conditions Dr. Williams-Pink-Pills will correct...
Dr. Williams Pink Pills build up the blood and strengthen the nerves. In this way the general health is improved, the appetite Increased, and new energy is developed.
The Pills are sold by all dolore Sent direct also by the Dr. Williams' Medisine Co., 84, Szechuan Road, Shanghai, one bottle for 31.00, six for $8 post fres
