A London Visitor.
»_ NURSE SCOTT (C.L.L.CC.) Amongst eminent London vis'lors at present in our midst is Nnr3e Ruth Ulartia Scott (C.L.L.C.0., London), who is staying in Launeeston, Tas. In London Medical . and ffospilal circles perhaps no Nurse is more widely known and esteemed ,f or the patt of hev 63 years of life has been spent in obtaining n profound experience of her j profession. Our repiesenta' ive recently paid lhis distinguished visitor a call at 119 George Street. "In lhis time of War, Nurse, especial interest atfaohes to you profession," said the reporter. 11 Yes," was the dignified reply, " ihf-re will be need for many nurses before this war is over. But I suppose you want Bome particulars of my own life ? " continued Nurse Scott. 41 Yes ! our readers are interested in you." "Well, I have naturally nursed many hundreds of patients, at times overtaxing my strength. In fact three years ogo I ! was atts ked by peritonitis; the aftereffects of which were so severe t^at I had : to temporarily abandon my profession, ! Shivering fits, abdominal pains, extreme j tenderness to the touch, shallow breathing end other derangements of the system were experienced. I became extremly weak, and aithough under the care of | highly qualified doc'ors for two years, my j troubled did not abate. I was further j weaken* d by at attack of locomotor ataxi', I (Sufferers from this disease cannot wa k ] in the dark, and iost control over the sight j muse'es, and other functions), I was very j ill indeed and hearing of so many j wonderful cures effec : ed Dr Williams' I pink pills decided ti try them. I used several boxes altogether, and they completely currd me. lam quite free from all symptoms of both peritonitis and locomotor ataxia, and am stronger and more active than ever beforp. Having proved the value of Dr Wi Kama's pink pil-s I strongly recommend them to suffer?." The reason Dr Williams' pink pills perform so many enres is because they act on lhe ciuses, not on the sympt ms of disease, 1 hus they cure paralysis, vital losses, St Vi'us 1 danc?, rickeis jaundice, spinal weakness, antenna, dyspepsia, effects of influenza, typhoid fever, <tc. Sold by Dr Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington, N.Z. thrpe shilling; per box, six boxes sixteen and sixpence, and by aU chemis's and storekeepers — but bs surf you ask for Dr Wil Jams'. Pills sold looss or in g'ass bottle, although co'oured pink, a-e not Dr Wil iarns' pink pills, The gcnu'ne are sold on'y in box r e bearing the full name, Dr Wi Hams' pink pi'ls for pa'e peop'e, in red on white wrapper. Nuive Scoti's snbnrlwn nddres? is the Coffee Palace, Beaconsfield.
