A tonic is slower in its-action but builds up your strength so that gradually greater effort becomes possible without discomfort, and your reserve of strength increases. A tonic that builds up the blood and strengthens the nerves gives support to the weakest organs, and gradually the improvement is generalised and the whole system benefits. Dr Williams Pink Piils are a tonic, not a stimulant.
