A Woman Saved from a Nasty Fall.

Our readers will bo gratified to hear of a popular young lady's esc.ipo from a nasty accidont. Particulars of the affair were brought in by our reporter just as we were going to press. It appears that actiug without delay upon information received he called upon Miss Petrea Peterson at her residence in Featherstone. The lady uccorded him an interview without hesitation.

14 1 hear Miss Peterson," he said, " that you have been saved from a nasty fall." 41 Yes, indeed," said the lady, 41 but the occurrence of which you speak occurred some tima ago. It was this way. Suddenly whilst walking through a room I found myself falling, head first to the floor." 41 How were you saved from injary?" 44 Well I jcist had presence of mind enough to clutch at the furniture. I then sank down in a chair exhausted. This occurred on more than one occasion, for I was fearfully weak, and at times everything would swim before me. Those attacks came on as a result of anremia from which I had suffered for several years. First 1 began to crow thin and pale-faced; my lips became bloodless, and I felt fearfully weak. Then I was afflicted cwith heavy headaches and total loss of appetite. I could not sleep at night, and I would be taken with cramp in the legs, the stinging tingling pain of which was so great that I used to scream aloud. My family and friends were dreadfully concerned about me. If I even went upstairs an attack of heart ualpitation would result and I had to rest till I recovered my breath. Sometimes my heart was so weak that I had not the strength to speak. Several doctors attended me; they described my complaint as anaemia, but their treatmenb did not seem to benefit. I also suffered from a bad eye. I dragged on in this distressing state until June, 1897, when I saw Dr Williams' pink pills advertised in the Evening Post. In the advertisement, a young lady who had suffered like me told how she had been cured by them, so I purchased a supply. After the third dose I felt a little improved, I continued with Dr Williams' pink pills, following . the directions carefully until I had used nine boxes ; then being perfectly cured I discontinued them. I have had no occasion to tako tham wince, so there is no doubt about my being permanently cured. lam bright and happy now, free from headaches, sleeplessness, cramp, heart palpitation, and all my former complaints. I can do a day's work without feeling fatigued, and I take a real interest In life.
