WHY SHE WAS RUN DOWN
Saying that she felt weak and languid, and didn't feel like working, a pale young woman recently had her blood tested by a reputable physician. This test indicated an anaemic condition, as the haemoglobin content of the girl's blood was only 60 per cent., instead of 90 per cent, to 95 per cent., which is normal for a woman, and her red blood corpuscles count was only 3.700,000 instead of a normal count of 4.800,000. u ■ The red corpuscles carry haemoglobin throughout the body. This conveys lifegiving oxygen from the lungs, and nutriment from the digestive organs to every cell of the body, building tissues and clearing away poisons. Health can only be good if the haemoglobin and red corpuscles are normal. The physician prescribed Dr. Williams' Pink Pills* and after a month's treatment a further test showed that the yourje woman's blood had made remarkable increases in haemoglobin and red corpuscles. She felt full of energy, looked brighter, and had better colour. Many other bloodless people had the same experience, and the physician's records prove that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are ideal for anaemia, nerve troubles, indigestion, and. run-down health. At chemists and stores, 3/bottle. Say "Dr. Williams' "—and take no other. —-1
After an opening -bid of 100 guineas, a copy of the suppressed first issue of the first edition of Lewis Carroll's "Alice in "Wonderland" fetched 900 guineas at an auction in London recently., This price was given by Mr Lent, of Maggs Brothers. This copy, which had several defects, belonged to an unambitious - owner who had been quite, unaware of its value. The price obtained does not approach the heroic bid of £SOOO which Dr. Rosenbach made in 1928 for the 1865. issue, in perfect .condition, which the author inscribed and presented to Mrs Craik, writer of "John Halifax, Gentleman."
