“WEAK AS WATER,”

IIUX DOWX AFTER INFLUENZA. MJ?S CASSIU MUNRO, TIMARU. TO-DAY A PICTURE OF HEALTH. DR WILLIAMS’ PINK PILLS. “ Tluve >'<■■[r> alter my marriage I so weak ami thin tliat I bad to spt-JiU illik.t ci‘ my time in bed,” said -lin. iin.:,' Munro, Le Cron's terrace, i’lmani. - 1 caught, a heavy cold that turned to Influenza, and it look me months to got over the attack. For the hoot, part of a year 1 was so weak that I could .scarcely walk from one room to another. Winn 1 stood up, my legs seemed to be going from under me. Rig black rings came muter my eyes, and 1 had a sickly, tcaslied-ont look. All the time that I seas taking tile doctors' medicine 1 kept going down hill. Soon I lest all heart, tor ! thought X would never be strong again. Nothing would do Mr Jluiuu but that 1 should givo Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People a fair trial. Ten weeks after taking them I was stronger and plumper than ever I was in my life. For over five years my health ims been so good that I don't know what it is to get tired, even on the hottest day. No one can deny that Dr Williams’ Pink Pills have built me up tor good. “ It was in the middle of Winter, that year the influenza was so bad in Christchurch, that 1 took sick,” said Mrs Munro, who, by the way, is the fourth daughter of Mr Samuel Bntoe, of Jackson’s road. Lyttelton. “ One bleak Saturday afternoon I wont out to do a little shopping. When I got homo I was almost blue with the cold. I was chilled to the very bone. Do what I would, I could not get warm. Even when .sitting over a roasting fire, I could not stop shivering. My eyes started to water, and I went to bod with a head as heavy as lead. AU night long I was rent!css, and never closed my eves. Nest morning I could net get up. Every inch of mo ached. My back was as stiff ami sore as if it was bruised black and blue. The a ny my legs ached was worse than if 1 nad walked for miles. My head was all stuffed up with the cold. It burned and throbbed till I could not find n cold spot on the pillow to lay it. When I sat up the bursting pains in my temples made nic sick on tho stomach. Mv tongue had a thick whito coating, and my month and throat wero parched. When tho doctor came, I was in a high fever. He gave me medicines to take, but they did mu very little good. For three weeks I wasn’t able to leave my bed. Tho first day I got on my feet again, 1 nearly fainted with weakness. "Air Munro was in a great way about me. Ho said I didn't eat as much as a child. I couldn't fancy my. food at all. Tho very smell of it took away my appetite. Often it was aa much as I could do to lorcc down a biscuit or two. Some days even a sip of milk turned mo bilious. U I touched a bit of meat, it set mo vomiting. Every day found mo worse. My head ached fit to split. Often I wanted to scream —my nerves wero in such a state. They wero strung to such a pitch that tho rattling of tho windows net my heart in a flutter and turned mo faint. From one day's end to another, I could not get rid of tho _jjcar that something dreadful was going to happen. For hours after I wont to Btxl 1 fancied 1 could hear all sorts of strange noises. I could not go to sleep. 1 twisted and turned from one side to the other till it was almost daylight. I got up feeling as if I had not been to bed at all, Otten when trying to dross myself my eyes went dim, and I fell hack on the pillows in a half faint. “Tho doctor did his best for mo—but nothing somed able to get mo out of my weak state. At the end of ovory week I was a bigger invalid. Tiien one day my husband read of a caso just liko mine that had been cured by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Palo People. Ho sent to Bennington's, in Christchurch, for some. At first they seemed to make mo worse—and, only for Mr Munro, I would have knocked thorn off. Ho said if I wanted to get bettor, 1 must give Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a fair chance to euro me. The third box gave mo a bettor appetite than I had had fer years. In fact, I could not eat enough. That showed that Dr Williams' Pink Pills suited me, and bo I kept on till I had finished eight boxes.
