THE YOUNG LADY WHO WOULD GO TO A DANCE.

" I went to such a delightful dance last night," said a young lady, by name Miss Elsie Kelly, of 42 Palmer street, Didinghurst, thereby disclosing the fact that Ufa still contained pleasures and comforts for her. " Bnt, ;> continued she, "less than a month ago, however, I uever expected to be able to dance again, as I was suffering most virulently from a fearful attack of acajmift that threatened to cut my existence short. You see, I'm in my teens, and am consequently at an age thab is critical to all Australian girls. My trouble began with indigestion iv the most; cruel form. Without" apparent reason, I found myself forced to live on small pieces of toast, water biscuits, bovril, and such light food, and even the digestion of these occisioned me the greatest pain ; bo bad was I that I was even uusbie to take vegetables. Excessive palpitation of the heart also distressed me acutely, and this became 30 exhausting that even if I merely went up the stairs (a short flight) my heart would beat with such terrific force against my side that 1 could hear it plainly, and I was always compelled to sink into a chair for several minutes to recover my breath and till the excited heart beating quietened somewhat. I was even unable to v/alk up the hill on the eastern portion of the Domain, near Woolloomooloo, without support. My kneecaps swelled to aii extraordinary size, and sharp, shooting pains would dart persistently down my legs if I essayed to walk; the agony was a's unetdur&ble as if I'd been struck with red-hot iron rods Frequently I was compelled to put my legs off the ground on to a chair so as to ease the awful pain in my knees. If I did go for a walk, when I returned, after suffering ex .Tucisting agony all the way, I would be quite unable to sleep—an unprecedented, occurrence witli me. At times, also, I was attacked by headacbeSj my face wes always pile, dark .rings c&tae like stains under my eyca, whichkmt; their lustre. Iwasalso totallyunab!e to ride my bicycle. I had always a nauseating taste in my tuoatb, and my gums turned to a peculiar white colour. My breathing was forcscfr and difficult, while I always felt so ill, so tired, and co thoroughly ' done up' in every way that I could neither go out nor remain at home with composure. These fearful sufferings continued for three weeks, and my mother," in a treozy of fright, consulted a well-known doctor. • It's aoremia,' he said, ' and that is a terrible, complaint;: Her blood is povertystricken, and likely enough this is the first stage of consumption.' My mother suggested a trial'of Dr WiJliams's Pink Pills for Pale People, as she had heard a raost; satisfactory account of them; but the medico merely shrugged his shoulders, looked imperturbable, and remarked deprecatingly, ' Try them if you like f'

" She did like, aad that probably," said the young lady, with a flash of spirit, "is the reason I bzo here to-divy iv perfect health to tell you all about it. I took the pills decording to directions, and shortly afterwards a change for the better resulted, whils'o a little later on I found myself wholly and totally cured. Pains, pufiiness, heart palpitation, indigestion, headaches, sleeplessness, the nauseous taste is my'mouth, the restlessness and the constant feeling of despondency were all swept from my system. The blushes came back to my cheeks, the Epirkle to my eyes, the sprightliness to my siep, the buoyant feeling to my he*rt; the dark circles disappeared from under my eyes, and my'gums regained their natural colour of red. In short, I was a new person, better and stronger even than before I had been ill. This is the first time I ever had sickness in my life, and I only hope that :f I should ever fall ill again I will have thi3 ccmplete, wonderful, and sovereign remedy with me."

Mrs Kelly corroborated every word that her daughter had said, making many kindly references to Dr Williams's Pink Pills for Pale People, which she asaured us she wou!d recommend to all who came within her reach. Mr Kelly, who has a host of friends, is well and favourably known, esjiecially in maritime circles, as the head stevedore of the North German Lloyd Steamship Company, Limited.

Miaa Kelly's words clearly show that her cure is permanent. These pills are not like other medicine, and their effects are perma» neut. They act directly on the blood, and thus it is that they are so famous for the cure of anremia and rheumatism, weak heart, scorfula, consumption, chronic erysipelas, and to'restore pale and sallow complexions to the glow of health. They are also a splendid nerve and spinal tonic, and thus have cured many cases of paralysis, locomotor ataxy, neuralgia, St. Vitus's dance, and nervous headacheI*. They are sold by chemists and by Dr Williams's Medicine Company, Wellingtpn, N.Z., at 3s a box, or six for 15s 9d, but are genuine only with full name—Dr Williams's Pink Pills for Psle People.

See that your chemist does not substitute something just as good when making your purchases. The"jast3Sgood"kind cost him less money, and he is looking cut for his pocket, not your health.—Advt. '
