WOMEN AND THE MIRROR.

A NEW USE FOR THE LOOKINGGLASS. We invariably nssocia'e a lady's dtess-ing-table with a hi'gc and complete mirror, and the fair iw has always to bear the brunt, of innumerable harm'ess remarks regarding the time ihey spend in front of their lookiim-;.lasses. A new but valuable use has, however, been fom.d f r this most iml:.<[ , c*nsil» , o t i!d article. Mrs Lordelh, of \G'2 bowlingstreet, Sydney, is the lady to whom this discovery is due, Speaking recently to a Balmain Observer mau, she said : "I. am quite well new, and don't think I ever enpyed better healththanks to Dr. Williams' Pink Fills for Pa'e People ; but I was very bad imbed. The first start of my illness was loss of appetite, ami as 1 also began to feel a bit low in spirits occasionally, and also was growing rather pale. I went to a chemist. ' Why,' he said, ' you're antemic,' and lie showed me in the look-ins-glass how white my gums were getting, al.-o the bad colour of the inside of my eyelids. He said, ' You want a strong tonic,' and he give me one. However, I continued to get paler and more sickly-looking, my appetite grew gradually less and less till I felt I hardly eared whether I ate anything or not, and when I did manage to get a little food down, it seemed to stick like a hard lump on my chest. I was losing flesh rapidly, and was growing so weak that I cculd hardly get out of bed in the mornings, and when I did do a little work, it knocked me up completely, and I had to go and !ie down to recover. At last everything became a trouble to me, and I got into a low, hopeless sort of state, and hardly cared what became of me. Nearly all the time 1 had suffered from a peculiar dull pain in my back, so I went to another chemist and asked him wdiat this pain meant. He told me my liver was out of order, and he gave me some pills and medicine : but these did me no good. Altogether, I must have tried a dozen different kinds of medicine without any good effect. I used to lie down all day on the sofa, hardly able to move anything but my eyes. However, I could read, and it was because of an account of a remarkable cure that I saw in the Daily Telegraph that I decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. I sent my daughter for a box. In less than a week's time there was a great difference, I can assure you. My friends congratulated me on a change for the better in my appearance. I continued the pills, and very soon I was able to do a little work again. My appetite came back, and a slight tinge of colour appeared in my cheeks. I got slowly, but surc'y, better every day, and felt as brisk and lively as a girl of 18. As I have said before, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People did this for me when lots of other melicines failed to do me any good at all, and I shall always recommend them to my friends. I give my full permission to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Company to publish the facts of my cure wherever and whenever they may think fit." The genuine Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold only in wooden boxes, about two inches in length, each of which is encircled by a blue warning label. The outside wrapper has the full name, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, printed in red. In case of doubt it is better to send direct to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Company. Wellington, N.Z., enclosing the price, 3s a box, or six boxes for los 9d.

These pills arc not a purgative, and they contain nothing that could injure the most delicate. These pills have a remarkable efficacy in curing diseases arising from an impoverished condition of the blood or an impairment of the nervous system, such as all skin troubles, rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St. Vitus' dance, nervous headache, nervous prostration, and the tired feeling arising therefrom, the after effects of la grippe, influenza, and severe colds, dengue and typhoid fevers, diseases depending on humors in the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, &c. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills give a healthy glow to pa'c and sallow complexions, and are a specific for the troubles peculiar to the female system ; in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, over work, and excesses of any nature.
