FIERCE BOUTS OF NEURALGIA.

Every Cold Change Brought An Attack.

This Woman Spent Sleepless Nights and Became Weak and Unstrung—Cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

• •. "For days at a time I would be P rc f" trated with Neuralgia," is tho ter«e.and vivid way Mrs Arthur Phillips, of Petone, Now Zealand, describes tho fierce bouts cf Neuralgia she suffered from. This was before sho tried Dr. Williams's Pink Pills, and she spent such painful days and sleepless nights that sho became generally weak and unstrung. The patient's mother and sister, who had found great benefit from Dr. Williams's Pink Pills, urged her to try them, with the happiest results. Mrs Phillips was completely cured. These pills are recommendod'ior Neuralgia, because it is generally a symptom of a weak, rua-down condition of health. As tho nerve 3 derive their nourishment from the blood, and Dr. Williams's. Pink Pills aro a blood maker, their value in Neuralgia is certain. Mrs Phillips, who livea at 5 Fitzherbert street, said:—

"For days at a time I would be prostrated with Neuralgia. I had several teeth drawn, but that did not do a scrap of good. The minute I> put my head out of doors, or put my hands in a drop of cold water, the pain, started if it had not been present before. I put on all sorts of poultices: the fain for day 3 and days was- so maddening nearly went crazy. I would get up at night, after tossing in agony, and make an iron hot, and wrap flnnnel around, and press it on my face, and often I nearly burned the. skin off with liniments. I would be absolutely delirious with suffering. 1 dreaded nightfall, for at sundown the pain always came on. IS I dozed off I would have, most dreadful nightmares.. My face got Mistered, and my cheek* wero red and swollen and tender to the touch. Every nerve felt as if it- were being twisted and pulled. I would sit by the fire, and rman r.nd cry helplessly. I wonder I did not lose my reason. The stabbing and shooting each side of the-face und up into the temples was cruel, and not one thing cared mc. First I would feel a tingling pain in the cars, and then tho hammering paroxysms would start. I was sick oi going to doctors. I could barely stand on my feet when I got out of bed in the morning. I felt as if-1 would fall down with sheer weakness. ■ I had to get a womp.n in to do {he washing nnd heavy work. I was ns whito aa a sheet. My veins had no blood in them, nnd not a drop would trickle from a cut. I was rent nwp.y for a trip, but even then I did not pick up. I was as wasted as could" be. I was ill like thi'st for over a* year, when T decided to give Dr. Williams's Pink Pills a- trial. They did mc <rood from the very start. I took about twelve I-oxra s-tosether. nnd they gave mc the good health I enjoy to-day."
