TWITCHING ST. VITUS' DANCE

, This Girl had to leave School for S'.x Months. ■, 0- — : — Muscles and Iknbs or,. .lie move--A ujiniui canncuivd by Dr. Williams Pink Pills Little Olivo Swainston, of BoulderCity, W.A., after suffering for months frith a most distressing attack of St. Vitus' Dance, was cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. She .luul medical attention, but did not improve, anil her parents wore becoming alarmed at the progress of the diwaso. iler cure, once a course of Dr.' Williams' Pink Pills was started, was to bo expected. They have cured a great many cases of this complaint, because it is a nervous disorder, and they supply the system with tlio rich new blood that is necessary to keep the ner.-es in tone. •Mr. K. Swainstnn, of 75 Millei Street, Boulder, a well-Unuivti miner, made the following statement in regard lo his daughter's case-. — daughter Olive, who is eleven years old, had an atlac.i of St. Vitus' Dance and was poorly for some months. We noticed her arms aud legs beginning to twitch spasmodically as if they were on wires, Sho liaJ to- leave school for six months. Her tonguo would twist, and lier eyebrows and shoulders used to jerk and twist too. She got worso and worse, and at last, she could not fasten her clothes or button her shoes. It was not safe to givo he.r a teacup to hold, for ten to one it would drop. Wo gave her all sorts of soups and nourishing foods, and tried every possible remedy, even to hot sea-salt baths, but she did not improve. She could not get a good night's sleep, her limbs would inovo about so, and my \rifo had constantly to get up and straighten the clothes and attend to her. Her speech became so jumbled one could hardly make out what she was saying, and she seemed to be unable to think clearly, as if her senses were numbed. Sho could not walk well or easily, it was as if sho wero hopping or jumping. Sho could not even sit still. At last my wife, having tried Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills herself for liheumatism, started giving her a pill at each meal, and somo colour showed in her face; formerly sho was' quite white. The twisting began to wear oft' and at last ccased altogether, and she has become as well aud healthy ns wc could wish any child to bo, and every trace of the complaint has disappeared."
