ALWAYS BILIOUS. Headaches for 18 Months, Hated the Sight of Food. Another Case in Masterton. Di\ Williams' Pink Pills. "For eighteen months I never knew what it Avas to be without a headache —and horrible sick headaches they were, too," said Miss Nellie Mahon, Hall Street, Masterton. "The pain seemed all over my head. At times I could hardly open my eyes with it. My stomach was all upset, for I couldn't keep down even light food. Often the smell of the dinner cooking made me bilious. I would be. days in bed at a time, too sick and wretched to care whether I lived or died. I was utterly worn out with vomiting. I grew too weak and thin to bo ;iny good about the house. I fccok common pills, but tho next day I always felt worse than over. J looked like a ghost. As a last hope I tried Dr. Williams' Pink rills for Palo People. In a few weeks they cared my Headaches and Bilious : ness. It's over twelve months since I left them off, and I couldn't wish for bolter health than I have to-day. "It was in December, 1902, that I first began to feel queer," Miss Mahon went ,ou. "Every morning I woke with a splitting headache. As the weeks1 went by my head troubled me more and more. Often I felt that my brain would burst. If I stooped down the pain darted up the back of my ears. I would turn dizzy, and have to catch hold cf whatever was near me to save myself from falling. My forehead felt on fire. The throbbing pain through my temples and above my eyes almost drove me silly. The torture I suffered was awf-il. Sometimes the pains were dull and heavy, other times they were sharp and stabbing. I didn't care how things went. Morning, noon, and night I was downright tired and wretched. I felt that I"didn't have a . friend in the world, and that life wasn't worth living. "Gradually, I went from bad to worse," Miss Mahon added. "My appetito was very fickle. I would fancy something—and then when I saw it on the table I couldn't eat a bite of it. A little rice pudding would bring on a bilious attack. For two and three days I couldn't lift my head from the pil--low. I would bo in bed afraid almost to move. My stomach was so weak that even a drink "of tea made me .vomit. I would get cold and hot in turn and break out in a nasty clammy sweat. My heart would thump and throb, and I would shiver all over. What blood I had seemed no better than water; I could never get my back worm, and my feet and legs were stone cold. When I think of all I went through it's a wonder I am not in my ( £isrve. "I hated to go out, for people kept telling me bow ill I looked. My face Avas a sickly'.y&llpwf■■■&»<&' my lips were quite blue. My,;c^eek" bjemes seemed ta be coming my skin. I felt that I hadn't the* energy to talk. I was glad when night came, so that 1 could get away to my room, and be away from everyone. JBut I could never get a goad night's rest. I would sleep in fits and starts, and get up next morning feeling wretched and misei'able. All day long I was nervous and restless. I was always imagining something dreadful was going to happen. At last I grew so thin and weak that I couldn't do <& hand's turn in the house. I was a complete wreck. "For months I used to take a dose of Epsom Salts or some common pills whenever I felt a bad attack coming on-^-but they never did me any good. They just drained away my strength. Next day I would retch and vomit till I was too weak to move. I was far weaker than if I had not taken any medicine. I would be down with another headache and bilious attack. At last ono of my girl friends told me that common pills like that did me more harm than good. She wanted me to start Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. At first I thought they were a little dear, but she said that six boxes of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills wmild cure me— but*if I took shilling liver pills I would just go from bad to worse, no rcatter how many I took. So I agreed -- for I knew it was new blood I wanted A few days after starting Dr. Williams' Pink Pills everyone at home* noticed the difference in my appetite. In two weeks I was able to eat whatever was on tho table. My headaches oast-d, and I lost that horrid sick, giddy feeling. The colour came back to my cheeks, and I bad no more bilious attacks. T nm strong and robust again. In fact I never remember feeling so well as I have these last twelve months, if I were sick to-morrow J wouldn't have a doctor near me—and I would take no other medicine but Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People."
