PLUCKY ONEHUNGA GIRL
The trials through which an Onehunga (N.Z.) girl, Miss D. Cunningham, of »elwvn street, has passed, caused her to be recently interviewed by a reporter, and exceedingly interesting her narrative proved. “I must tell you ” said Miss Cunningham, “that I am a native of Oneliunga, and am consequently well-known here. My age is eighteen. About two years ago my trials began, for I then contracted bronchitis, which developed into consumption. I was afflicted with weakening night sweats, emaciation, complete loss of appetite and a hacking cough; my expectorations, were marked with blood. I was treated oy skilful doctors for six months, but at last I was told I was a hopeless consumptive. But- feeling that whilst there is life there is hope, I sent for a supply of Dr Williams’ pink pills for pale people, and after finishing two boxes was considerably benefitted— the cough eased and I began to eat well; two more boxes cured me. Since then I have been in excellent health.” Consumption is not incurable in every stage, nor in every case, pronounced by doctors incurable with ordinary medicine, beyond hope, if Dr. Williams’ pink pills, which are not ordinary medicine, are used. They have cured many cases by replacing the lost blood and increasing the resistant power of the lungs'. By enriching the blood and retoning the nerves, Dr. 'Williams’ pink pills cur© anaemia, debility, rhdmnatism, neuralgia, skin eruptions, paralysis, and even locomotor ataxia. Sold by chemists and storekeepers and by the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Wellington, three shillings per box, six boxes sixteen and six, post free. Substitutes never cure and should always be avoided.
