ST. VITUS' DANCE CURED BY DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS FOR PALE PEOPLE.

A LADY WHOSE SUFFERINGS WERE TERRIBLE TO WITNESS.

IRREFUTABLE TESTIMONY OF A MISSIONARY'S WIFE.

" Lake Ccndah, October 11, 1897. ",The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Sydney. Sirs, — I have much pleasure in stating that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have cured a bad case of St. Vitus' Dance on our station. " Willie Lovett, a lad 17 years of age, was attacked with the disease in question about two and a-half years ago. He was prescribed for by several doctors, but grew steadily worse. The whole of the right side, from the head down to the feet, was affected. He could neither dress nor feed himself, and his limbs and face were constantly twitching in a manner distressing to see. both night and day. He could get no proper rest. The pockets of his suits were all torn down the right side, owing to the involuntary convulsive movements made by his hand when he put it into them. The last doctor who attended him told his friends they would have to be very careful that the lad should not get a fright, or be hastily spoken to, as if that happened he might fall down dead, his brain was in such a bad state. See ; ng accounts of several cases of cure of St. Vitus' Dance in your little pamphlet which was sent to me, I wrote to Sydney for six boxes of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and the lad commenced taking them according to directions. " By the time he had taken three boxes he was so much improved as to be able to feed himself, to wash and dress himself, and even to lace his own boots, a thing he had not done for a very lonff time befox'e. When he finished the six boxes he was perfectly cured, and looked quite a different boy.

For over four months he has been out in all sorts of weather rabbit-trapping with his father, can use his pen, and ohop wood, carry heavy buckets of water, and, in fact, do any kind of rough work. Just at present he is away from here working as a woolpicker in a large shed in the Western District, where his father is engaged as a shearer.

'• I give you this unsolicited testimony, not for the purpose of extending the sale of Pink Pills, but in order that other sufferers from the same disease, of whom there are doubtless many in the colony, may, perhaps, try them, and receive similar benefit to what this lad has got through their use.

•' I am quite willing to reply to any enquiries as to the genuineness of this case, and you are at liberty to make what use you please of my testimony. — I am, Sirs, yours truly,

M. Stahle.

" To the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Sydney — Sirs, — I have asked Mrs. Stahle, our Missionary's wife, to inform you of the good Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have done our son, ' Willie." Every word of w.'^at this lady has so kindly written is perfectly true, and I can assure you I am thankful to Go 1 for curing my boy through thoir means, tor we were afraid he would never get better, as all other medicines seenu'tl to give him no relief at all. He was suffeting for over two jcars. — I am, Sirs, yours gratefully, (.Mrs.) Hannah Lovett."

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have a remarkable efficacy in curing diseases arising from an impoverished c >ndition of the blood or an impairment of the nervous system, such as rheumati-m, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, nervous headache, nervous prostration and the tired foiling arising therefrom. They are genuine only with the full name name, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills lor Pale I'eonlo, and are sold in boxes encircling which is a blue warning Libel. The out-ide wrapper is of white pap^r, and is printed in red ink. Our npeatcd warnings may seen a trine superfluous in the eyes of the reading public, but they were never more needed than now, and the frequency with which they appear is attributable to our desire to afford our customers every protection. Imitators are in every corner of Australasia, and m,my vendors are endavouring to pass off a hurtful substitute, as it meuis a larger profit to them, and the public would do well to avoid them, tor they would just as readily dispense nnpui c dru^s. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are obtainable from all loading chemists, or from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co.. Wellington. X.Z., who will forward, post paid, on receipt of stamps ur po^l uuUr, one box for 155., or half a dozen for l."is 'Jd.
