A Girl Saved from the Grave.
1 Mam 19 years of age," said Miss i Petrea Peterson, of Featherston, Isotth j i i gland, N*w Efiftland, to a press representa- J 1 live who interviewed her last month, «• and f since I was 15 I haw been suffering, more i or has. I had acu'e palpitation of the ) heart, which was broiightabont by ansemia i or bloodU-B«ne-», to which I was a long t martyr. Whenever I ran upstairs my » heart would thump violent against my : sides, and I would he quite epeecßleßß for sevural moments until I Hoovered my ' breath. Night after night I -osaed, wwaryi 'ary r and worn out. on my bed, tryin vainly to ■ sleep. I had fearful attacks of cramp im J my legs, and so great was the agony that ' frequently it caused me to scream out' in > very desperation. I was always in a weak, I low state, and never felt fit for any work. » My legs would at times swell up to a considerable extent, and this naturally occaI sioned myself and my mother great bus- , pense. Thus, as I grew older I grew worse and worse, being subject also to periods ' of giddiness wbich many a time caused me » almost to fall down. 1 tried plenty of mcdi- ' cines, and I bad several doctors, but they ' gave no relief. I also consulted three docI tors regarding an affliction of the eye from i which I suffered. Having given up my > case as hopeless, I one day noticed an ad- • Aertisement for Dr Williams' Pink Pills '. for Pale People in the Evening Post. \ Gathering hope from this, in June, 1897, I commenced taking them strictly according to directions. After the third dose I found a ohange for the better. I continued with them until I, bit by bit, improved so much that four months ago I left them off altogether. I have taken a total of nine boxes, and am now in every way in the most perfect health. Insomnia, weakness, giddiness, heart palpitation, cramps, and swellings in the legs have all disappeared, and the affection in my eye has likewise ceased. As there as been no recurrence of these ailments at all during the past four months, it is evident that my core is a permanent one. The pills have absolutely cured me, and I will always keep some of them by me. I feel fit for my work and for anything. My mother thinks the world of Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, aud she has tried several boxes herself. lam awfully thankfull to them, and I have recommended them- to all my friends. Four of them speak exaotly as I do of the PMs, and cannot praise them too highly. lam well known here, and numbers of people have been watching my caae with interest. You can use this testimonial in any way you desire."
