THE SUFFERINGS OF A MAR RICKVILLE LADY.
HER TRIALS ABOUT TO OVER WHELM HER WHEN DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS RESCUI! HER.
ENDURED YEARS' OF TOETUEI FROM INDIGESTION AND DYS PERSIA.
11ns Edwards, a most intelligent and k'ndly lady (wife of the caretaker of th; Marriekville 'Town Hall), has for a long time been a victim to indigestion of an aggravated character. She very courteously received a representative, and gaTe him an account of her ailments and their cure. In answer to his first question, she said : " What you have heard is quite true. I have been suffering for years from indigestion and dyspepsia." " Will you be good enough to describe your symptoms.'' " Well, first of all I suffered from sleeplessness, ringing noises in my head, and an overbearing pain at my chest. Furthermore, my appetite failed, and all that would rest on my stomach was soft food such as milk and arrowroot. But what alarmed me most was tiie way my heart would go pit-a-pat on the v«ry slightest exertion. I can assure you if 1 walked a quarter of a mile these distressing symptoms would come on This frightened me very much, for I feared 1 was suffering from heart disease. As to the remedies 1 swallowed, why their name is legion, but unfortunately no good effects resulted, and I feared my troubles were neither to be cured nor alleviated. I consequently began to feel very low and depressed." " It is no wonder you felt low and depressed, Mrs Edwards. Sleeplessness alone, when it becomes chronic, is stillicient to deprive one of reason. Ringing noises in the head, too, you must have experienced trouble from, as deafness in some degree is raiely uir.ssoeiated with them. Severe heavy pain at the chest is always a marked sign of indigestion : and loss of appetite, the surest proof of the existence of something wrong, is frequently linked to it. You must indeed have bad a severe trial, but to continue with your story.'' " Une day I read of some cures effected by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and indeed it \ roved a joyous day fot me. I determined to try a few boxes of this specific, bought them, and commenced to take them according to the directions v. Inch I noticed weie around, each box. After the first two boxts I felt a decided improvement, and decided to continue with this medicine. As 1 persevered with the treatment I made satisfactory progress. " Von said that your heart gave you considerable anxiety, Mrs Edwards." " Yes, 1 was afraid it was diseased, and I'm glad to find I was mistaken. It took a little time to pull me together again, for you must remember J Had sunk very low ; but I am happy to state that I am fairly on my feet again, and am so satisfied that this cure has been effected by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People that 1 have r< commended them to all my friends. Yes, you are at perfect liberty to publish this testimonial, for I consider it a duty that 1 owe to the wor'd at large." (Signed) JANE EDWARDS.
Anyone with a particle of sympathy in his composition will readily concede that life under the circumstances narrated in Mrs Edwards' case is a failure, and death holds little terror for one so situated. Imagine even such an existence, and the thought brings terror with it. It is like bearing a heavy load with little strength to manage it, consequent upon the denial of food and sleep. Xo wonder the heart rebels and seems detcriiiinfd upon bursting bounds.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills also cure such diseases as rheumatism, neuralgia,pirtial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St. Vitus' dance, nervous headache, nervous prostration, the after effects of li grippe, influcnzi, and severe colds, diseases depending on humors in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, &e. In the ea-.e of men they effect a radical cure in ali cases arising from mental worry, overwork, or excesses of any nature. Tinsc pills are not a purgative. They are genuine only with the full name, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and are sold by chemists, and by Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, New Zealand, who will forward, post paid, on receipts of stamps or post order, one box for 3:i, or half-dozen for l"is od. They are unrivalled as a tonic for 1 oih sexes
