ALWAYS DROWSY.
Liver Trouble tar Tkree Year*. Turned Against All Food. Indigestion After Every Meal. Mrs. E. Dunn, of Foxton. Or. Williams' Pink Pills.
"Four years ago 1 wfls suddenly seized with a sharp stabbing pain under my shoulder blade," said Mrs Elizabeth Dmin. Avenue Road, Foxtou. "It worked down and settled in the small of my back. The agony completely doubled mc up. I was afraid to move. The only way I could get a little ease was to lie down. I could not do a hand's turn in the honse. My appetite grew faddy. Even the smell of the dinner cooking turned mc sick. .My skin was as yellow as gold. I just looked as if I had Jaundice. I thought there was no hope of mc ever being right again. I had been ailing fos three years before I would even give Dr. Williams - Pink Pills for Pale People a trial. I started them twelve months ago last May. When I had finished eight boxes, I had better health than 1 ever had in, my life before. For the past eighteen months I have never had a single thing the matter wirh trie.
'"Day and night I was never free from pain,"' said Mrs Dnnn. "It was aiweys worse after meals. I had to pick and choose every morsel I ate. I couldn't touch jsai or swept thiugs at all. As sure as I did, a burning pain caught mc just below my breast bone. Hot sour water kept coming up into my mouth every little while. Often my tbroat felt as if It had been scalded. My appetite grew more fickle day. Sometimes I would fancy a thin*—but the next time I went to taste it, it turned mc sick. At last I grew to hate the sight of food. No matter what I forced down, it turned to wind. Sometimes even a drink of tea made mc feel as if I had eaten a great big Sunday dinner. I felt as If I didn't know what to do with myself. 1 was so drowsy that I could hardly keep my eyes oiien. "All day long 1 had this heavy s'eepy feeling. Yei at uight I tossed from one side of the bed to the other, and se'dom closed my eyes before two or three in the morning. I got up as limp an a rag. I hadn't a scrap of energy. I wanted to He down a'l the lime. 1 did my liest to rouse myself, hut the moment 1 tried to help a little in the house my old pain caught mc. If I stooped to do my boots up. my head would reel. My eyes would flicker and jump. Often they feit as if they would start out of my head. I grew dizzy and a cold sweat broke out on my forehead. I felt so wretchedly sick that I often thought I was dyinc. "As time went on I grew steadily worse," Mrs Dunn added. "My heart thumped and Uuitered for no reason. For the life of mc 1 dare, not go upstairs. My breath would come short, and ■ gaspy, and I felt as if I ■ would smother. Often the blood rnmhed to my head and set mc trembling like a leaf. My legs grew shaky, and felt as if they were going from under mc. After standing for ten minutes I was ready to drop. My'nerves were in such n dreadful state that 1 couldn't bear noise of any kind. Many a time have I put my fingers in my ears so as not to hear anyone around mc talking. I was downhearted and frightfully Irritable. 1 couldn't look on the bright side of life at all. 1 always had a feeling that I was boring people. From oae day to another I kept thinkiug that I was going to heat some bad news. And all this while the pains in my shoulder and back grew worse. The agony I went through at times was more than I could bear. "Every day I kept going from bad to worse," Mrs Dunn went on. "Then I read how Dr. Williams' Pink Pills over in South Australia had cured just such another case as mine tbat the doctor said was hopeless. "After that I said Dr. Williams' Pink Pills must be good. I sent straight away for a pound's worth —for I made up my mind to give them a fair trial, and I wasn't fool enough to think that a box or two would work wonders. At first I thought they weren't going to do mc any good. But at home they all noticed how much better I was eating—aud so I kept on. As I grew strong the pain started to leave my shonlder and back. In a few weeks it had gone altogether. Soon 1 was looking after my house as well as ever. My heart gave mc no more trouble, and I lost that sleepy, drowsy feeling. Now I never have to worry over my meals. I can eat whatever is going. For the past 18 mouths I have been brimful of energy and life.' My face has lost Its sickly yellow look, and my skin is demand healthy. I owe all my present good, health to eight boxes of Dc Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People."
