l of a DR. WiLUAiSTiik PILLS CURS LIR3. J. S. FRANCIS OF General Debility, Asthma, Bronchitis, Weak Heart, Dropsy, Rheumatism, and Kidney Troubles. “Well," replied Mrs. Annie Francis, of Box! Hill, y Victoria, to nur reporter, “ I am only too happy to give you -1 whatever it;f<>lillation you require regarding my case." y Mrs. Fiancis is a native of the West of England, and 86 '.A years of age. She came to Australia in the “Orient,” some jSgL g '' IS ye .rs . ;o, and was then in the enjoyment of good health and bright sp.rils. A few years alter arriving here, Mrs. .? Francis itrc’.mc a victim to various complaints, including tofts’’ . general debility, asthma, bronchitis, weakness of the heart, I rheumatism, dropsy, and kidney troubles. For nearly 16 x - "-A years site has scarcely been entirely free from pain or ache. Life was indeed in her case a burden. Asked if she had consulted doctors and tried medicines, the good lady replied ' in the afihm.itivc, and volunteered the statement that her medical adviser had told her honestly and plainly that there ',-T was no hope of a cure. All fflf ■ ■ A that remained he said, was ’’XL' ' for the sufferer io bear her X, . . J f severe affliction as well and V'7 Vs’ as patiently as she could, I %-* f This was poor consolation, \T~ f av.d Mrs. Francis, without abandoning hope, resigned r’S Wk l,c; sclf t 0 what appeared a k ! i-:,-' life-long illness. Latterly her /Xm>\ V ■’ P'L'HvX condition became more aggra//’Gfi \li\ iMI intensified The §5 " I) urns. fbaxcis. good woman was unable to fff leave her loom, or to attend to the family of which z -J there are four bright intelligent children. It was impossible for her to enjoy sleep at night, and in order to help .■ . ■■' nature to produce a feeling of sleep, Mrs. Francis gjf > was accost ;mcc! to rest during the day and night in a k£s!bp ' rocking-ch,'.lr. Gnawing rheumatic pains, especially in her ,"h arms, .-carccdy allowed her weary frame a respite from pain, * . \ Those who arc r.iibiect to these racking pains—the after dis'A t: . ; i'i'.:< is or riiemnaiic fever —know full well the intense ' ■ : ;-i ! g - r : t ;, c subjcci. irndcr notice must have underwent. f Some vr. lims of this painful malady have described the pain a<; resembling the effect that would be produced by the sawf jug ,j the arm in two bv a surgical appliance. Little wonder, tlicrdore, is it that this good lady feels more than grateful to A ’-J Dr. Williams’i’ink Pills fm Pale People. The i eporter asked Ijgjjy Mrs. F 1 m.is how ’a had fared regarding appetite. “I ICK. was unable to take food, except of the lightest, and became weaker day after cay in consequence. So debilitated had iqj’ constitution become that an attendant had to look after me. 1 svas al times unable to turn from side to side or lift ■my arms.” Here is the spontaneous testimony of Mr. Francis, which speaks for itself“ I cannot help expressing’ * > my gr .titmJe tor the wonderful change, I may almost A . h c.dl it a miracle, that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have brought about in the con liiion of my wife.
