Influenza.
ITS DREAD TERRORS AND FEAR
FUL CONSEQUENCES. HOW TO EFFECTUALLY GUARD AGAINST IT. Influenza is now rampant all ovrr Australia and the greatest precautions possible should be taken to guard ogainst it, as one has not only to contend with the malady itsc'f, but with its fearful and devastating after-effects. That this is bo is shown mont clearly by the case of Miss Jamieson, of Autumn-street, ABhby, Geelong, Victoria. " Some few years ago," she told a reporter, " I suffered from a very severe attack of influenza. I could never | f>< t rid of i s after-effects unlil I tried Dr. i Williams' P.nk Pill for Pale People. ■' Although generally experiencing robust j health preview to this attack, when at last ; I was able to leave my room I was almost of ; ghostly proportions— not at a'l like I am | now. And 1 continued ia this state for pome time. I did not mind the weakness so much, fecli; g sure that wou'd wear off ' in time with good nourishment. But in ! March of la3t year I commenced to experience gn at inconvenience from pains in my righ' sid \ I consulted a medical man : who said it was merely the after- effects of the influenzn. and I was not to worry myself. But, as the pains continued, I did worry myself, arid went to Melbourne to consult a spec'alist. He iuformed me that it was parial paralysis. He put me through a course of treatment that left me as I was, and T returned home fairly worn out. Whether the worry or the heroic treatment I had undergone was responsive or not I will not venture an opinion upon, but a week nlterwards erysipelas set in on my face, and for weeks and months I suffered the greatest agooy.: In January a friend (Miss Evans, of Eaglehawke, near
I Bendigo) came down to see me, and she one day boueht me a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pill. When visiting Melbourne I took them, and four days after, the pain commenced to go away. I continued taking them for some time, and in all I used eight boxes discontinuing them in August. From them until now I have not had the least symptom of a return of either complaints — complaints that I had not b.-en free for four years. lam 22 years of age. Scores know of my sufferings, and the means of my recovery I am only too ■pleased to supply." A perfect blood-builder and a nerve restorer are to be found in Dr Williams' Pink Pills. They positively cure rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St Vitus' dance, nervous headache, nervous prostration, the aftereffect! of influenza, dengue and typhoid fevers, and severe eolds, diseases depending on humors in the blood, auch at scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc., Dr. Williams' Pink Pills give a healthy glow to pale and sallow 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, over-work, or excesses of any nature. Ask your dealers for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and refuse all imitations and substitutes. Sold by chemists and store keepers generally, or the Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., who will forward, on receipt of stamp* or po«!t order, one box for three shillings, or half-a-dozen for gixteen and sixpence.
