CROSS, PEEVISH GIRLS

More to be Pitied than Blamed

“She seems to be so irritable and peevish lately I don’t know what is the matter with her,” said a mother about her seventeen-year-old daughter. It is astonishing the .number of girls who “can’t get on with mother.” They are pale, fretful, cross and headachy—a sad contrast to the bright gilds they were a year or two ago. Those pale lips, backaches, breathlessness and languor tell the whole story to an observant eye. She is growing into womanhood, and nature is asking more of her than she can bear. She has pains and aches that no one pities because she has grown melancholy and silent. She has queer fancies; will eat sweets while she refuses wholesome food, or take a whim for raw rice, or sometimes chalk. Naturally, her temper is bound to suffer; it isn’t your girl’s fault that she is cross and peevish. She has become bloodless. Give her the rich blood that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are famous for helping to make, and you will soon see the difference. It will show in her improved appetite, better temper, and the return of colour to her cheeks. Delay is dangerous; give your daughter Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills now. At chemists and stores, 3/- bottle. Say “Dr. Williams’ ” —and take no other.-—Advt. Week ending 12th January, 1935.
