OLD AND NEW WORLD WISDOM.

Away, in the dim mysterious years when the vast tombs of the Pharoahs were as yet unbuilded the wise men of the East -wrote and spoke philosophies which live with' us to-day, and there is nothing more poetic or true than the old Egyptian declaration, " Tho good deed shines out liko a star." A "deed whichshines out like a star is reported from South Brisbane. It has been known for sotno time that a lady resident of South Brisbane was virtually pulled back from the grave by tho agency of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The caso was known to be remarkable, and a reporter was specially sent to investigate it. Tho lady's name is Mrs Beeston, and her residence is " Off Boundary-street, near Melbournestreet, South Brisbane." Mrs Beeston bears no trace of the terrible suffering which she for years endured. Her first serious illness followed on a cold contracted through getting wet, and that dreadful scourge rheumatic fever supervened. In treating her for tho fever, the medical man of the family gave Mrs Beeston instructions to take large ejuantitics of lemon juico. The doctor, a well-known and highlyesteemed physician,-, succeeded in relieving her from thefevir, but her system was completely run down and her blood impoverished by the method of treatment. She was doiug fairly well when another attack of rheumatic fever came on, and that also tho doctor managed to beat off. " But I was left terribly weak," said Mrs Beeston; "my teeth suffered through taking the juice of as many as six lemons a day, and when I was able to get about I felt fit for nothing. '' Mrs Beeston's sister, who was present at the interview, here interjected : •' When I saw her she had her hair cut off; fho was quite yellow, and looked as if she had just come out of a fever ward." Well, for a. long time Mrs Beeston battled on, but she suffered greatly from general debility which she could not manage to throw off, and the least household duty was a distressing task. At last she was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and she gave practical proof of her wisdom by doing so. And what was the result ? Unqualified success. She was not cured by a box ; it took thirteen to restore her to her old condition, but tho improvement though giadual was sure, and a very stubborn case had to be overcome. She is now able to rejoice in her strength, and. to go about her household duties and to take her place in tho sooial life of tho neighbourhood. A useful life;has been restored to society ; a daughter, wife, and mother re&cued from the threshold of an early grave, and given back to her family. As instancing Mrs Beeston's changed condition, it may be mentioned that she went to a dentist to have two teeth extracted, and felt a little timid about taking gas, as before using Dr Williams' Pink Pills her heart was very weak from the effects of rheumatic fever. The dentist, however; after the operation was able to inform Mrs Beeston that her heart was perfectly sound. •• And I told him"' nhe said to tho reporter, "that I had to thank Dr Williams' Pink Pills for that."

These pills aro not like other medicino, aDd their effects are permanent. They act directly on tho blood, and thus it is that they are so famous for the euro of anaemia and rheumatism, weak heart, scrofula, consumption, erysipelas, and to restore palo and s-xllow complexions to the glow of health. They aro also a splendid nervo and spine tonic, and thus have cured many cases of paralysis, locomotor ataxy, neuralgia, St. Vitus' dance, and nervous headache. They are sold by chemists, and by Dr Williams Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., who will forward (post paid), on receipt of stamps or post order, ono box for 35., or half dozon for 15s 9d., but are genuine only with full name, Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. See that your chemist does not substitute something' just as good when making your purchases. The just as good kind cost him .less money, and he is looking out for his pocket, not your health.
