Marvellous Cure.
Brought Home to Die but Restored to Health. Sensation in a Brisbane Neighbourhood —Cure Confirmed by Independent Witnesses —A Tribute to Dr. Willams' Pink Pills. The wonderful value of Dr Williams' Pink Pills to those who are weak and run down is shown in a remarkable way in the case of Miss Violet Sinclair, whose mother is Mrs David Sinclair, cf " Devonia," Chernside, near Brisbane. After being in a Brisbane hospital for weeks, and undergoing a serious operation, the little girl was taken heme in a supposed dying condition. Nothing her parents did seemed able to bring her back health and strength. However, on the advice of a man whose daughter had had a marvellous recovery after using Dr Williams' Pink Pills, the little girl was started on a course. Mrs Sinclair tells how they made a strong, healthy girl of the little invalid. She says : "Violet, who is now 13, some time back had to go into a Brisbane hospital for a serious operation,«and was there three, months. She was afterwards so weak that she was not expected to live. We got her home on pillows, and kept her alive with sips of brandy and milk. Her face and gunms were snow-white. She was only a featherweight to lift, and her arms and legs were like sticks. She never 'spoke, and could just move her head. If she had a morsel of fish her temperature rose. Of course, all her hair was cut off. When I was taking her in a cab from my room at Mrs Hucker's in Warry street, in the Valley, the driver who saw her happened to be Mr Curtin, anc» ho told me how his daughter had been completely cured, and advised me to try Dr Williams' Pink Pills. Later on, when I got her home to Chernside, I stalled with half a. pill three, times a day ; then I increased the dose, and my child owes her life to them. After three weeks ahe was eating well and titting up and getting a tinge of color. Soon she was able to get out cf bed, and I had to train her to walk and assist her to hold on to the side of the bed and take a few steps, and then let her rest and put her back to bed. In six weeks she was walking. Day by day you could see her gaining all round, and how overjoyed we felt .' Neighbors would come from all round to sec her and wonder. Some would not believe until I showed them the boxes. She goes to school now, and is as robust and as plump and fresh-colored as possible." THE CAB-DRIVER'S TESTDIONY. '• I remember driving Mrs Sinclair and her young daughter from Warry street, Valley. Seeing how ill her daughter looked, I strongly advised Mrs Sinclair to give Dr Willidrns' Pink Pills a trial, as they had cured my own daughter after long suffering. Mrs Sinclair took my advice, and the change for ths better they brought about was astounding. Later I could hardly recognise the patient lor the same, she being in perfect health." (Signed) T. Curtin-. 541 James street, New Farm, Brisbane, Q. THE CURE CONFIRMED. " I have pleasure in stating that I am acquainted with Mrs D. Sinclair, of Chernside. Mrs Sinclair and her little daughter Violet stayed with me for six weeks in order to be near the hospital.
