GIRLS IN THEIR TEENS.
A DOCTOR WARNS PARENTS.
Tar average girl in her teens, says Dr Lyman, M.D , in the course of a treatise upon young men and women, cannot unassisted develop into a robust, healthy woman aud undertake the physical and mental tasks which our precocious style of living renders r. quisite, This is so because the system at this period contains insufficient blood to allow of natural bodily develohment and a continuance of physical and mental tasks. To illustrate this, Ihe ease of a Christchurch girl, Miss Taylor, daughter of Mr and Mrs William Taylor, of St. David Street, may be cited. Until she was 15, Miss Taylor enjoyed good heath, hut then she became amende, weak, thin, pale and haggard-looking. Gradually she lost all appetite, and was later on attacked with severe vomiting. From time to time she took many different medicines without benefit, until one day a friend strongly recommended her to try Dr Williams’ pink pits for pale people, as they were an acknowledged blood-builder and nerve tonic. A few doses of these pills brought relief; the vomiting ceased and she ate her food with benefit. She continued taking the pills, her appetite improving from day to day, and within six weeks she had gained 91b in weight; eight boxes completely cured her. Now the colour has come back to her cheeks and lips, she sleeps well and has grown into a strong, graceful young woman. Miss Taylor improved almost from the first under the use of Dr. Williams’ pink pills because every dose makes, rich, red blood and helps to tone up the nerves. To these qualities is due their success in curing debility, nervous exhaustion, rheumatism, sciatica,gmuralgia dyspepsia, insomnia, St. Vitus dance, paralysis, skin disease, etc. From chemists and storekeepers, and the Dr. Williams Medicine Cc , Old Custom House-street, Wellington, three shillings per box, s x loxca sixteen aud six, post free. By inducing regilar health they restore to faded cheeks the peach-like tint of youth and beauty,.
