Hints on Beauty.

A PARISIAN PRESCRIPTION.

"To be piquant and pretty" (saysa wellknown fashon writer in a Parisian contemporary " several complements are necessary. Silk and satins, laces and jewels, are in themselves but a small adjunct to beauty if ladies but only knew it. To my mind the first and moatindispensible adjuuot is a smiling, delicatelytinted face, a sprightly Btep, and an abundance of vivacity. Mrs Johns, for instance, is a pretty and vivacious young lady of about 25 years of age, and in answer to the questions put to her, she said : — " I have been very ill, but at present I am enjoying excellent health and spirits. Indeed I don't know that I ever felt better in my life. I can safely cay that I owe my satisfactory recovery entirely to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The first cause of my illness was, I think, the worry and ertra work caused by moving from place to place for I have been a great traveller during the last year or two. Anyhow, after my last journey I began to feel very low and depressed in spirits ; I could eat soarcely anything, and began to get very thin. And as far as my color — well, I was as yellow as if I had a severe fit of the jaundice. An old friend of mine, who met me in the street, looked mo straight in the face and and passed me by without recognition, and she was positively shocked when I lan after her and tod her who I really was. I got from bad to worse ; the leaßt exertion wearied me, and my ordinary housework became too much f<r me My gums grew quite white, and my lips looked a blueish grey color. My sleep, was restless and disturbed, and I was so tired in the mornings that I could hardly get out of bed, and when I did I used to lay on the sofa, feeling I hardly cared what happened to me. I saw a doctor who said I needed a slrong tonic, and I had several bottles of physic from him, besides other bottles of tonics which I obtained from chemists ; but I grew no better. I wa3 in this miserable and hopeless condition when I heard from someone who had been cured by then about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I at once got some. After taking a few I was agreeable surprised to find a real and distinct change for the better. I got rid of that miserable depression of spirits, which in its sslf was enough to keep me ill, and in a fpw days I was able to sleep the night through without interruption. The Pills, too, gave me a good, appetite, and I began sWiy to g?t cheerful and fat agiin. My color came back, and after taking six boxes I was compl tely cured and found myself ■is strong a3 ever. I shall always remember >ny cure with gratitude, and shall, you may be sure, recommend this wonderful medicine to any of my friends who may have the bad fortune to suffer as I did." Mrs Johns resides at 60 Yurong-street, Sydney. The genuine Dr Williams' Pink Pills are sold only in wooden boxes, about two inches in lpngth, encirc'ing whioh is a blue warding label. The outside wrapper has the full name, Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pa'e People, printed in red. In ' case of doubt it is better to send direct to the Dr Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., enclosing the price, 3s. a box, or six boxes for 15s. 9d. These pills are not a purgative, and they contain nothing that could injure the most delicate. They positively cure the effects of influenza, colds, etc , and are a certain cure for indigestion, insomnia, general debility, headaches of all kinds, neuralgia sciatica, rheumatism, lumbago, and other ailments.

As a summer medicine Dr Williams' Pink Pills far surpass all other remedies. Their action on the blood and nerves i 3 is prompt, and the effect 13 wonderful. Lassitude gives way to a feeling of renewed cn o rgy, and the lurking seeds of disease are speedily expelled from the system. These pills are sold only in boxes, the wrapper aiound which bears the full trade mark, " Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People." A pill, even if colored pink, offered in any other form is a fraudulent imitation, and should be promptly refused.
