GIRL'S LIFE-TRAGEDY.

. Tie tragedy of an Onehunga girl's life, as told-in, detail by 'her to a reporter, affords a, valuable lesson to all. .The lady is Miss Druscilla Cunningham, of Selwyn Street, ' Onehunga'. Upon being interrogated 1 , she gave the following account: "I can very truly claim," said she, ".that for my age—l am only eighteen —I "have passed through more troubles than most women. From my earliest years I was weakly and subject to heavy colds, SO' that wlken two years ago I was attacked • by bronchitis, I was ill prepared to withstand it. I became very feverish, a continual cough racked my frame, my breathing was oppressed, my chest was exceedingly painful. I grew "weak, thin and pale, and exposure to changes of temperature caused violent fits of coughing, sometimes bringing upblood,," " You have had more than your share of tragedy," said the reporter. "But anore was to come," said Miss Cunniiiighami, " for the bronchitis brought on consumption. I grew weaker and more emaciated, and suffered from tike usual symptoms of consumption. I was very frail.and despondent when one day I read that Dr..Williams'"'pink pills were able to cure consumption. Somehow I seemed to believe in them—the testimonials seemed so true. ' After 'taking two*" boxes of ths pills I certainly felt better. I ~ continued wi'th them for some time'longer' and was gradually restored, to robust health. Now every symptom of bronchitis and consumption has gone, and I ami stronger and happier than ever I was. I really cannot. recommend Dr Williams' pink pills too highly.' • By replacing the lost blood and increasing the resistent power of the lungs;, Dr Wiliams" pink pills ha.ve cured many cases of consumption. They so increase the patient's strength- that 'he or she is enabled to rally from the weakness, and eventually to throw oft* consumption and other ailments." These pills have cured many cases of rheumatism, sciatica., lumbago, effects of influenza and pneumonia:, anaemia., debility, weak heart, skin diseases:, St Vitus' dimce, paralysis, etc. Sold by chemists and storekeepers, • and by the Dr Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington, three shillings, six boxes sixteen and six, post free. They contain no poison and cannot haran the most delicate child or lady. ..' . 1938
