“I was never very robust as a girl, and some tipi® back I began to fall away in health. I got quite run down," said Mi’s Rosina Coom, Freswick street, Blenheim. N.Z. “My appetite failed bit by bit till at last I couldn't fancy anything. Some days I'd bring up everything I had swallowed. I had attacks of Indigestion and only got relief that way, as my food would lay .so heavy on my chest. For hours' after, eating it gave me burning pains right through to my shoulder blades. I dare not touch a bit of new bread or potato, my-diges-tion was so weak. I'd get a choking feeling in the throat as ’if I could hard,ly breathe, and I'd wake up at night sometimes gasping and trembling , all over. My heart would thump at odd times os if it was pounding away in .my chest. I dare, not hurry-if walking or doing -any, housework, or I'd got a %ad turn. I became very thin, and quite fallen away in flesh, when I took a trip to Wellington my friends hardly knew •me. Each morning I'd wake up with a coated tongue and' a moat unpleasant fiour bitter taste. I'd .be a martyr to eiok headaches in' the temples, such a dull heavy pain pressed down on -my eyes as if.some weight wore closing the eyelids. I'd get eo dizzy sometimes I'd 'have to sit down till I felt better. Thero were epeofce and motes dancing before me, and queer flashes of light, eo that my eyesight would be. quit© hazy. All (through my head I'd feel as if bells were jangling. I had to manage my 'housework somehow, but I'd have to stop and reist sometimes, as I had no briskness or strength, least thing tried mo. All the time I felt out and w-eary. I got no good rest at night. I'd toss about and dose off and.wake up in the morning fit for nothing and very low spirited. I seemed to be getting no better, in fact worse, till I started a course of Dr Williams' Pink Pills, and j am. thankful I- tried this remedy, it •has done mo all, the good in the world,"
! whether I .ate or not. Soane days I would be ravenous, and yet as soon as 1 sat down to a ineal the craving would go. I wanted vinegar on everything 1 ate. My skin became quite transparent. I was deadly white in lips, hands, and cheeks; I hadn't a trace of colour, and. under my eyes were dark rings. My feet were always as cold) as Ice, and my hands damp and* clammy. - I; could never d° much in the day, X was always.so utterly weak and tired before the day began, and after .a little spell of work I would feel quit© frightened, and I would have to -press my hands to my sides and stop for breath; I would feel as if I were choking. Severe headaches of a nervous nature used to come on, and then I would have to go straight to bed. The pain would dart right through 'froan the inner corner of the eyes to the very nape of my neck. I was so low in spirits that I never wanted to speak to any- , one. I ..would laugh and. then cry. hysterically for nothing at all.' At. night I would wake up after a light dose bathed in perspiration and the clothes would be quite damp. I lived mostly oh milk foods, and ©von these at times lay heavy on my chest and would not digest for hours. Sometimes the sight or the smell , of food cooking would upset me. I never went anywhere to any • amusement; I • hadn't the heart. ■ I went to two doctors, and had tonics and medicines, but I : didn't get cured, X was ailing for about two years when a told my mother * to got X)r Williams Pink Pills for me. Little .by little • the . signs of. Anaemia disappeared. First of all I began to feel brighter and then my, appetite /began to pick up. X took at first* three, pills a day And then I doubled • the dose. Everyone began to remark on the change in my appearance. My people and myself wore overjoyed... The colour came back to my, face and the languid feeling wore off. I to-ctk four hoses straight oil, and a little later I took some more at i intervals. I could feel my blood getting . much richer as I took the course. The headaches lessened-and finally disappeared. • My heart was much stronger, and I' shook off the depression and could get through the day like an ordinary healthy . girl. lam glad to recommend Dr WilsLairrts' Pink Pills as they thoroughly 1 set me up." . -.-
