THE RESULT OF A FRIGHT

Repeated warnings have been given as to the dangerous practice of exposing children to sudden fear, but unfortunately it .is often done. Although the case in question arose from no practical joke, it shows how serious the results of a fright may be. "* “When my little girl,_ Lizzie, was thirteen years of age,” said Mrs Elizabeth Gonsell, of East Malden (Vic) (wife of the respected manager of the Baglehawk Consolidated Goldmining Co.), “she received a severe fright. This so told upon her nerves that St. ’ Vitus' dance resulted. Her limbs moved involuntarily, and the twitching of her hands made it impossible for her to hold a cup and saucer. Whenever I spoke to her she would give a convulsive jump. She became quite debilitated aud in spite of skilful medical attention she did not recover. Acting on my sister’s advice I began giving her Dr Williams’ pink pills for pale people. At first I gave her half a pill after each meal, and later on, one pill. Before finishing : the first box she was wonderfully improved, and her convulsive movements lessened greatly. Four 'boxes cured her. Tone has been given to her nerves, and she is now in perfect health. Naturally, I recommend Dr. Williams’ pink pills in all cases of this sort." Miss Gosnell’s cure is convincing evidence of the nerve-toning properties of Dr. Williams’ pink pills, which also cure neuralgia, paralysis, locomotor ataxia, early decay, hysteria, heart palpitation, etc. By enriching the mood they cure anaemia, debility, rheumatism, sciatica, «ldn diseases, etc. Sold by chemists and storekeepers, and by the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Wellington, three shillings per box, six boxes sixteen and six, post free.
