WINTER AILMENTS.

o ANEMIA (BLOODLESSNESS). DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS A POSITIVE CURE, A CASE IN POINT. A VICTORIAN LADY'S RECOVERY. (From theTarangower Times). Tiie most devastating and beauty-de-stroying complaint which females have to contend with in Australia is undoubtedly anremia. Bloodlessness is a general and terrible weakness which, bit by bit, draws its victim into the grave. Climates and mode of living seem responsible for its appearance in these southern latitudes. Until of late years no adequate cure had been found for it; now, however, Dr. Williams' Pink Pil's for Pale People are known throughout the world as the one great specific which invariably baffles this most distressing ailment. Mrs Bowe, of North Maldon, Victoria, thus graphically relates the recovery of her daughter, Miss May. " Up to two years ago," says this lady, "my daughter had been strong and in good health, but she then became thin and pallid in appearance, rthe constantly had a feeling of depression, and her appotiteentirely left her. Always light-hearted bright, and vivacious this peculiar and distressing change naturally caused us great concern. Several medicines were tried, but she became weaker and more listless every day. Tha doctor said she was suffering from anaemia, or poorness of blood. We then became seriously alarmed, and consulted different medical men, who prescribed, and told Miss May to take as much exercise as possible. She, being fond of flowers, naturally turned her attention to the garden, but had to abandon the work, as the least exertion exhausted her. Often, when I thought she was out taking exercise in the fresh air, I have found her in the drawing-room with her head resting in her hands, and in a somnolent state Then, when disturbed, she would steal quietly to her room, and remain there for hours at a time. At this stage we became extremely anxious concerning her health, and again sought medical advice, as we thought she was going into a decline. It was of no use though ; nothing did her any good. She was then so thin and weak that the slightest exertion tired her. She also sufferel from severe cramps in the legs. 11 Friends then recommended patent medicines, and two or three kinds were tried, unsuccessfully. "At last I decided to take her away to the country for a change, but just as I was about to do so I saw in the Tarrangower Times an advertisement about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, and noticing that people with symptoms similar to those of my daughter had been cured, I determined to give them a trial. "After using half a box a great improvement was noticeable, and after using three boxes she regained her appetite, was able to sleep with comfort, and was so strong and well that we considered there was no necessity for her continuing to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. So she discontinued them. I honestly believe my daughter's recovery was due to this great remedy. She is now as well as ever she was in her life. She has a fine colour, is able to eat and sleep well, and can take any amount of outdoor exercise without feeling fatigued. I feel very grateful to Dr. Williams for my daughter's recovery, and would like to havo the case made known, as it may induce others who suffer as my daughter did, to try this remedy to their benefit, and thtis perhaps bring sunshine and happiness to their homes." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have a remarkable efficacy in curing diseases arising from an impoverished condition ol the blond or an impairment of the nervous system such as rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St. Vitus' dance, nervous headache, nervous prostration, and the tired feeling therefrom, the after-effects of la grippe, influenza, and severe colds, diseases depending on humors in the blood, such as scrofula, chrouic erysipelas, etc. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills give a healthy glow to pale and sallow complexions and are a specific for the troubles peculiar to the female system, and in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, over-work, or excesses of any nature. 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, New Zealand, enclosing the price, 3s a box, or six boxes for 16s 6d. These pills are not a purgative, and they contain nothing that could injure the most delicate.
