Correct Treatment for Anaemia.
One that Increases the Blood Supply. This Young Woman, on the Verge of a Decline, Found a Valuable Remedy. The case of Miss Mary Cummihge. daughter of Mrs- Patrick Cummings, 98 Coleridge street, Sydenham, Christchurch, well illustrates the advantage of treatment with . them in cases of bloodlessness.
Mrs Cjimminge stated to a reporter :— "My daughter Mary was healthy enough as a child, but she' began to fall away as she grew up. . Her appetite began to fail. I had to fairly coax- he& to eat. I'd- make dainty dishes for. her* and then she would hardly touch them.- -Her^Kps ' and gums : k»t all. colour, and h£r face grew dull and sallow-looking. She ceased to romp about' like other children, and - was weary and dragged out all day., &he had to rest and lie down continually.^ Her feet were always' cold, as if her blood did not circulate properly. Often she complained of the way her head ached, and she was so nervous and unstrung that the least thing would startle her. Her blood was watery and ecant ; if she cut her finger, hardly any would run. She couldn't stand long. Her feet and ankles would puff up. Each morning she was quite weak and prostrated. There was a good deal of backache. At night she would groan with the pain of it, and she couldn't lie or turn with' ease and only stopped with great -pain. Her eyes were glassy and brilliant, far too much so. One day. in Colombo street she had a giddy turn, and nearly fell. Som^ days everything would turn sour on her stomach, and she would have to fetch it up, her digestion was 60 weak. I knew of a young" lady near by who had been ill the same way and was cured by Dr Williams' Pink Fills, so I sent and got > some* and.- am thankful I did,, for yon. won't find any girl in Christchurch healthier."
