right through to my shoulder blades. J’d feel ns if I was on fire inside, and yet (here was always a cold feeling as if I had swallowed a stone. When I drew a breath it was as if I was being cut in two. My tongue was always furred, especially in the mornings, and I'd be drowsy and heavy. I’d get faint turns just «« if I was going to swoon, and sometimes I’d go quite dizzy and the room would seem to swim round me. I had to have light food only and especially cooked for me, as it was there were times when I couldn’t keep anything down. I’d get no relief till I’d rotch up wbat I had swallowed, and however light, the food was I got the pains just ns badly. I was thoroughly wretched in my spirits. I lost all my colour and got as sallow as possible, and thin as well. My heart would) palpitate alarmingly with the wind that was round it. I dreaded to eat, and my appetite was always very poor. The attacks after onch meal would' last fully three 1 hours. I had 3erere headaches in the. forehead and back of the hoad, and I’d just have to go and lie down. Scalding hot water would rush up into my throat with a bitter taste. As to strength I hnd none. The Dr. treatment did me good only for a little time. I tried hosts of other things with the same result. Then 1 read in a pamphlet loft at the house about Dr Williams’ Pink Pills. I bought some at the chemists. The first box eased me a little, and) after I bad taken five boxes I’m glad to say all these paina end aches went away. My appetite came bock, and some colour returned to my fact?. My digestion got stronger every day. The chest pains lessened and I lost the sick feeling and the violent headaches cased off. Soon I was eating quite well, and was a different girl, and I picked up all round. My mother had spent quite a good sum of money in various medicines, but Dr Williams’ Pink Pills set me on my feet.”
