FROM POVERTY TO WEALTH.
Ifc is not within the reach of all to become a B&inato, but it is certain that many bow in close association with want could by a little (sterling application in the right direction raise themselves to a pitch of comfort. As sn instance, the case of Miss Bowe, of North Maldon, may be quoted. This lady was a. victim to poverty of blood; but now we are happy to add has. through the operations of Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, gained possession of renewed good health. " My daughter had been strong and healthy until about two years ago," said Mrs Bowe to a reporter of the Tarrangower Ticaes (Victoria), " when she grew very psl3 and thin. She became weak and low-spirited, lost her appetite, her sleep was troubled and. restless, and the least exertion fatigued her ; ill fact, she had to take her sister's arm for support when out walking. She was of a wonderfully active and cheerful disposition before this change took place, and the alteration therefore caused us great concern, and msdical aid was sought. But no good resulted. Several medicines ware tried, but she became weaker and more listless every day. The doctor said she was suffering from anaemia, or poorness of blood. We' then became seriously alarmed, and consulted different medic*l men, who prescribed and told Miss May to take ss much exercise as possible; She, being fond of Bowers, naturally turned her attention to the garden, but had to abandon the work, as the least exertion, exhausted her. Often, when I ■ thought she was out taking exercise in the fresh air, I have found her in the drawing-room with her head resting in her hands and in a somnolent state. Then, when disturbed, she would steal quietly to her room, and remain there for hours at a time. At this stage we became extremely anxious concerning her health, and again sought medical advice, as we thought she was going into a decline. It was of no use, though; nothing did her >ny good. She was then so thin and'weak that the slightest exertion tired her. She also sufi'eied from severe cramps in the legs.
'■ Friends then recommended, patent medicine?, and two or three kinds were tried, nnsuccessfully. : "At last I decided to take her away to the country for a change, but jnst as I was about to do so I saw in the Tarrangower Time 3an advertisement about Dr Williams' Piuk Pills for Pale People, and noticing that people with symptoms similar to those of my daughter had been cared, I determined should give them a trial. "After usieg half a box a great improvement was noticeable, and after using'three bcxes ehe regained her appetite, was able to sleep with comfort, and was so strong and well that we considered there was no necessity for her continuing to take Dr Williams' Fink' Pills. So she discontinued them. ,1 honestly believe my daughter's recovery was due to this great remedy. She is now as well as ever she waß in her life. She has a fine colour, is able to eat and sleep well, and can take any amount- of outdoor exercise without feeling fatigued. I feel very grateful to Dr Williams for ray daughter's recovery, and would like to have tha case made known, as it may induce others who suffer as my daughter did to try this remedy to* their benefit, and thus perhaps bring Sunshine and happiness to their holnes." Great satisfaction haß been expressed by Miss Bowe'a large circle of friends that she is again enjoying health, and able to take her accustomed place at local social gatherings. ■ The public will study their own interests by demanding the genuine Dr Williams' Fink Pills for Pale People. Imitators are now in every corner of Australasia, and unscrupulous dealers deceive the public when they state tbatany> thing else is " just as good." I Dr Williams' Pink Pills are sold only in boxes ■ bearing the firm's trade mark. They are never gold in bulk, or by the dozen or hundred, and any dealer who offers substitutes in this form is trying to defraud you, and shonld be avoided. Ask your dealers for Dr Williams' Pink Pills, for Pale People, and refuse all imitations and substitutes. Failing to secnre the genuine send to .the Dr Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., who will forward, on receipt of stamps or post order, one box for 3s or half-, dozen for 15s 9d. The price at which these pills are sold makes a course of treatmentcomp»ratively inexpensive a« compared with other remedies or medical treatment.—Advt. ' ' *
