Dr. Williams' Pink Pills

~~This"Tamour blood-and-nervo tanto has proved itself, to be the finest known remedy for digestive troubles. Between the digestive organs and the blood and the nervos there is a sympathetic reaction, one immediately affecting the other if anything goes wrong. If he nerves are weakened by over-work worry or a general run- down condition, then indigention naturally follows. If the blood in allowed to become impoverished, then both the norves and digestive organs suffer. Therefore, in order to main- tain a powerful digestion both the blood and nertes must be kept in a healthy condition.
