A BAKER'S TROUBLES.
Mr Frank Green, of 39 Greelc-st., Glebe, Sydney, a prominent colonial baker, on being called upon by one of our reporters, gave, him some, interesting' particulars of his cure from a bad attack of measles, by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Tale People. "I have until a month or two enjoyed good health, said Mr Green. A few weeks back I seemed to be (running down in health and losing my spirits and vigour, you know there has been a good deai of sickness about and measles have been very prevalent. Well I got weaker and weaker, and could hardly hold up my head. 1 didn't, however, want to take to my bed as it seemed so childish to lay up if my head or finger ached, and besides I had my trade to look after and my wife to consider. As you may imagine she became terribly anxious about me, for till now I had set the doctor at defiance, and sickness was practically unknown to me. However, as I said. 1 got worse, and after a week had to lay Tip. The doctor told me I had caught the measles, and must take the greatest care of myself. The complaint took a long period to develop and proved very obstinate, the rash came out very strongly, the medicine I took seemed to do no good, in fact only made me worse, my appetite failed completely, and I. couldn't touch a thing and only cared for a hot drink; eating was beyond me. Of course I was very feverish and would have perspiring fits. All the symptoms of measles appeared, racking headaches, shooting pains in back and shoulders, intense weakness and langour." '"And what caused you to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills," asked our reporter.
"Well," replied Mr Green, "my sister had derived the greatest benefit front ,a course of the pills, and nothing irould please her but that I try them. Well, to please her, I ordered a box, and how thankful I am that I listened to her advice. The very first dose gave relief. I hardly credited my sensations; it enabled me to have a fair night's rest and I began to fancy my food a little. This naturally gave me hope, and I persevered with better results still. The rash gradually, passed away, I lost the feverish symptoms, and instead of tossing about at night could rest in comfort, though of course feeling terribly weak, as if my system had contained a furnace, so strong had been the fever. Now I am completely recovered, and feel as fly as possible, and as though I couldn't eat enough. I quite enjoy my meals and relish everything. After about a week I left my bed, and every symptom of illness has disappeared. I still keep the pills in the house; in fact I'd be foolish to be without them now I've proved their worth. Why, I might have been ill now; or even worse, 'lying in the cemetery,' so its no wonder I feel grateful; upon my word we never value health till we lose it. Mrs Green is as pleased as I am, for you can know what sickness means in a house, and the dreadful anxiety it brings, let alone expense and work." "I am very glad you obtained such a complete cure," said our reporter with sympathy. "Thank you," replied Mr Green. "I shall recommend the pills to everyone after this. So far I've taken four boxes. I've resided here in this neighbourhood about three years, and shall be pleased to testify to anyone my complete cure by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People." Such hearty testimony > from Mr Green shows how thoroughly grateful he is. Many other sufferers from rheumatism, sciatica, diphtheria, pneumonia, bronchitis, consumption, coughs and colds, kidney troubles, scrofula, eczema, ladies' ailments, loss of vital strength, chronic headaches, and other diseases have been cured just as thoroughly. When purchasing be sure you get the genuine with all seven words—Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people—printed in red ink on the white outside wrapper. Sold by chemists and storekeepers and by the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co.. Wellington. Price, 3/ per box; six boxes for 16/6. Never accept substitutes, for money thus spent is completely wasted.
