JUST ONE THING TO CURE ANÆMIA.
INCREASED BLOOD SUPPLY THE ONLY TREATMENT. A WEAK, RUN-DOWN AUCKLAND WOMAN RELATES HOW SHE BUILT UP HER BLOOD AND BECAME WELL, "As a girl I was very healthy, but about six years ago I began to get run down, and got worse each day instead of better," faid Mrs. Mary Mackie, o£ 113, Hobson-street, Auckland, New Zealand. "My appetite fell away till at last I could not fancy anything. Sometimes what I did swallow wouldn't stay down. My strength failed utterly. I had to give up my housework, and for two years I didn't do a stroke. I was in / the Auckland hospital for six weeks, and came out as bad as I went in. I fell away in flesh until I was as thin as possible. All the colour faded from my face and lips. I had hardly any blood in my body ; th^y said I looked like a walking ghost. If I cut myself the blood was jus v like water, and would hardly trickle. I had violent headaches lasting for hours At a time. I'd be so dizzy with them, that I couldn't bear anyone near me, and the slightest roise drove me distracted. My back was always aching t cruelly. I only wanted to down all day on the lounge. My heart would thump wildly at the least exertion. If I climbed a stair I'd have to sit down at the top and gasp for breath. For months at a time I never went out of the house. I was carried each day from my bed to the couch on the balcony, and when we removed I had to be taken in a cab. I had several doctors, and though I spent large sums of money I got no lasting benefit. Then I read of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I decided to give them a trial. The first box did me a little good. ,1 kept on with them, taking just three a day. Soon my face and lips got sonSe colour in them, and I began to fill out. That cruel backache ceased, and I found myself able oti.ee more to get about and do my housework, and last Christmas I was able to take a holiday to Wellington. People could hardly believe it. I am a changed woman since I took Dr. Williams' Pink Pills."
