PERFECT DEVELOPMENT

"FIDELIS" ON FEMININE BEAUTY. Every woman desires to be beautiful (writes "Fidelia" in tlio course of a elmtty article on " Feminine Fancies and Frailties" in tlie Sydney Sunday Times). Ho admit?, with masculine frankness, that the fieklo heart of man is more often taken by-a fair face and a faultier figure than by cleverness or domestic virtues. Undoubtedly (say 3 he) a woman's shortest- road to general admiration is homily in physical developinfeht. The aids, however, wliieli many women invnk<\ la secure this beauty would bo laughable to physicians if the matter were not cucli a serious one. Cheeks dyed with paint—its vivid colour softened' by powder—lotions of croam—washes of yarioii3 kinds—cosmetics pf every, shade—all show themselves at ,once to be mere imitations of;natural beauty. Real, beauty is obtained in quite another fashion^

[ 'Of course it would not be tme to say thnfc every 'woman' can I>© a "Venus di Medici by oven the strictest attention to hygienic laws. This much is ' beyond all doubt, however, that pure blood and taut nerves give a, contour of development, an erect carriage, and an elastic step. When the blood is weak with white corpuscles, the cheeks are pallid anil the complexion pasty. ISorioh the blood with the red corpuscles which give it colour, and the pink roses of perfect health will mantle the checks. Every doctor will tell yon this—and if he is candid he will toll you more. He will tell yo}i that Di 1 Williams' pink pills—which, by the way, are manufactured from the formula of an eminent physician—are the best, curb for pale 'faoe3, .lack-lustre eyes, and thin,' undeveloped forms. He will tell yon that they afcfc as a nervc-tonin, and briicc up the nerves, banishing neuralgia, hysteria, nervous exhaustion anil despondency. He will tell you, too, that they act as a blooilbuildor, p.ud make thousands of healthy, red corpuscles in the blood, purifying and cnrinliinir it, and sweeping away anaemia, debility, indigestion, skin Wctchos, and rheumatism, which are.all diseases caused by poor blood. When the nerves are braced, and the blood enriched with Dr Williams' pink pills—good-bye to headaches and heart palpitation, sallow cheeks, bony arms and fiat chests. In their stead will be sparkling eyes nnd rosy cheeks, a well developed form, and a happy heart—a graceful, radiant woman whom good health has made lovely enough to reign.in any household. This has happened often in nearly every town in New Zealand. A typical instance is that of Miss Kate Fraser, who lives in Slain street, Blenheim, anil is well known in that town. " About five years ago," says Miss Fraser, who is now 22 yoars of age, "my health began to fail. My blood became watery, and I was very pale and weak. I became liable to fainting fits, antl sometimes I scarcely, had the strength to walk abonl. I was a victim to insomnia,, and would lie awake for hours before I could got any sleep. My facc seemed quite bloodless, and my hands were almost transparent. I used to be well and strong, but gradually I became so thin, weak, and otherwise ill tli.lt I did not hope to recover. My appetite failed me, and the food I ate seemed to do me no good at all. My spirits wc-re depressed, and I felt, too miserable to live. I had been in this sad state of health for over three years when an .acquaintance recommended me to try Dr Williams' pink pills. Two boxfuls made a dccidcd improvement, and when I had taken nine boxfuls my figure had filled out, end I had hceome quite happy and robust; Now I work, cat, and sleep well. My complexion and geiifral appearance have improved so much that friends who liave not seen me for some time fail recognise mc—so you can imagine how great the transformation has been."

The secret of loveliness certainly lies in the - attainment of perfect health—and tho secret of health undoubtedly Her in pure blood and strong nerves. Dr Williams' pink pills make the blood warm and red, and tho nerves sharp and fteady. They brine about p-erfect health, and, before long, pink roses blush upon the checks, the form develops, and the figure becomes pliant and graceful. Anyono who will write to tho Dr Williams' Mcdicine Company, Wellington, and describe her present stato of health, will bo told confidentially just how to treat herself privately at home. The information is well worth the trouble of writing, for by following the simple directions many a palefaced, undeveloped girl has been raised to fresh, vigorous nnd beautiful womanhood.— Advt.
