HOSPITAL MATRON'S UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE.
All unpleasant experience (says a local •paper) was that of Mrs John Agneu', of Hills'' borough, near Oneliunga. Formerly, Mrs :Agnow held the responsible position of mijit-' ron of llio Uympie Hospital, and then of the Hcrlierton Hospital, North Queensland. Her departure from both institutions was marked by presentations and addresses, testifying .to the "high esteem in which Matron Asnew was held. , . ",,•.- She says:—"But some timo after settling here I became a victim to sciatica, and was invalid for several years. Sharp stinging pains ran through my back, legs, arms, arid hips. My right arm and left leg becams paralysed, and these portions would sometimes cause me great agony—just as if a, red hot iron was being nibbed over them. I grew thin and debilitated, lost energy, and was too weak to properly attend to the house. Expensive electric belts were bought and tried, I had medical treatment and liniment?, but all to no effect. Then I used Dr Williams' Pink Pills, and two boxes benefited me greatlj". They made my blood rich and red, and after a time I felt it tingling down the paralysed portions of my body, so that they toon became well and useful. Ever since then I have been strong and robust, and went through last winter without a twinge of pain. lam pleased to be able to personally testify to '.he extraordinary merits possessed by Dr Williams' Pink Pills." Special attention should be paid to Matron Agnew's recommendation, for her position in the two hospitals mentioned makes it of special value, as she has had extensive knowledge in the treatment of most diseases.
