I could not j sit at table, as I could' not. uso my knifes and fork, as my hands and arms were alwaysi moving against my will. Tho muscles otj my hands were 'always twitching and jerking, after a time my tongue became affected!; so that I could not pronoun' e any words' distinctly, my speech being- very much im-i paired. I was dressmaking at the time, 'bufci had to leave for quit© a year. I consulted;:; a lodge doctor who stated i:.~ nerves wore; unstrung- and recommended rne being Out'' as much as possible in the fresh air, but! lie gave me no medicine. I then consulted] another doctor, who told me I was suffering] from Chorea, in other words. St. Vitus*? Dance. He ordered me into the Wellington*.] Hospital, where I remained about ten days.;* I did not like being there and returned! home. I did not' find myself much better from the hospital treatment. I had beers-.' out of the hospital about a month, and not feeling any better, nor using any medicine.,my mother advised me to use a, course of' Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as she had read of cures of similar cases by the pii!s.jj Mother bought some at "Ward-ells itvj Willis-street and I commenced their meaccording to the directions. T had beeni' using them only a few days when. .1 found they were doing me more good , than all tho doctors' treatment, so I continued' their use till I had taken about; six. boxes./-' when I found myself in better health thanI had over been in dnrine my previous life."
