Christmas Festivities.

Christmas, 1897, will loon be upon as with its accustomed happy meetings and rounds of festivities. Those lying on a bed of sickness we Bincerely sympathize with, whilst we wish those only recently recovered from a trying illness the compliments of the season, and trust that, as in Ihe case of Mrs Eavies, of 18 North Clarendon-street, South Melbourne, they will be enabled to spend a Merry Xmas and Happy New Year. Mrs Davis for five years was a great sufferer, her chief complaint being severe indigestion and swellings in various parts of the body and limbs, the became an outpatient of the Melbourne Hospital, but receiving no benefit, she visited the Horace - palhic Hospital on the St. KUda-road. But no relief was obtained, and her health went from bad to worse. Besides prescribing for her the doctors advised her to discontinue drinking tea, but she remained the same, no relief resulting. <<I have walked the fl or," ea'i Mrs Davis, " night after night with the pain, and could obtain no rest. My agony was very great at times, and weakness almost prevented me from continuing way woik. At this stsge Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People were brought under my notice. I procured a box, for I seemed to have an impression that they would do me good. When making tho purchase the cbemist tried to induce me to buy some other kind of medicine, but I would have nothing but the genuine Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. 11 After the first box I improved wonderfully, and was able once more to resume my work, and I have now taken two boxes and a half. My work consists principally of washing, and this I am able to do, and life is once more enjoyable." Another lady, Mrs Dunn, who lives opposite, here called in to see Mrs Davis, and to her she appealed to ratify her statements. " Yes," remarked Mrs Dunn, " I have uen the poor thing doubled up with pain, and suffering the greatest agony for dayß together, and we all thought she was going into consumption." "And now," replied Mrs Davies. " I am I — well, • a new woman,' and all the neighbours and those for whom I work can tell foxx the same. Owirg to my hiving to go about so much I am well known, and the difference between my previous condition and what it is now can be proved by dozens of people ; and mind, nothing else has 'done me any good but Dr Williams' Pink Pilla (or Pale People." " And what do you think of the Pills, Mrs Dunn ?" asked oar representative. " Well, I have nearly as much reason to be thankful for them as Mrs Davis has. I was not at all well when she was suffering, and I also tried them, with the greatest success. My daughter has just as great faith in them as I have myself. Where she is employed the girls tried to get her to take some other medicine, as she was not well, feeling out of sorts, and being languid and cold of a morning, but she would take nothing but Dr Williams' Pink Pills, and now she is quite well and cheerful again." Mrs Davis here remarked that all women ought to take these pills. "Yes" said Mr 9. Dunn, "and men too. Look at my husband. Some time ago he became very much depressed in spirits, and got in to a 'desponding mood.* He had three bottles of medicine f ora the doctor, but id did not do him as much good as a bottle of stout would have done. He got worse, and I advised him to try Dr. Williams' Pimk Pink Pills for Pale People. He had now got very bad, and we thought he was dying. Eventually, he commenced to take the pill, and after three boxes he waß a new man; in fact, he was thoroughly cured. I think it only light that these things should be male known for the good of others, tor I think that the pills are the grandest remedy I ever heard of." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have a remarkable efficacy in curing diseases arising from an impoverished condition of the blood or an impairment of the nervous system, such as lheumntism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St. Vitas' dance, nervous headache, nervous prostration, and tired feeling arising there* from, the after-effects of la grippe, influenza, and severe colds, diseases depending on humors in the blood, 6uch as scrofula, chronic erysipelas. Ac. Dr. Williams, Pirk Pills give a healthy glow to pale and shallow complexions, and are a specific for the troubles peculiar to the ! female system, and in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork, and excesses of any nature. ! Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold only in boxes bearing th« firm's trade mark «nd
