WHY BLOOD SHOULD BE RED.
Tho bright red colour of the blood is caused by tho presence in it of red corpuscles. It is these little' bodies that carry nourishment to the tissues. They also cause the glow'of health in- cheeks aud lips. When tho blood is deficient in these rod corpuscles the person not mly becomes palo bu,t Uio body is under-nour-ished, tho weight is usually reduced, and as tho nerves sharo in tho general starvation some form of nervousness follows. When tho blood is improved in quality tho tissues are better nourished, nnd all tho functions of the body are better performed. When the blood lacks red corpuscles itis n scientific fact that a coiirso of treatment with Dr. Williams' Pink will help them to increase. This can bo demonstrated by a macroscopic exanvuation aud anyone can prove it by looking in the mirror, for an increase in red blood shows quickly in the cheeks and especially in the lining membranes of tho eyelids. A valuable iittlo book on "Building Tip tho Blood" will be sent free to any address on application to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Box 815, G.P.0., Wellington.
