DISTRESSING CASE.
AN UNFORTUNATE LADY. Recent investigation by a member of om staff show thai cases of genuine distress are now being reported from all quarters. In many instances relief has been granted and much suffering obviated, 'but there is still a great deal Co be done in the matter. A particularly distressing case is reported from the • North -Island at Featherston, a Miss Petrea Peterson being the victim. Miss "Peterson when interviewed said: — "I have been particularly -unfortunate during the last four years, and have been so bad as to be hardly able to perform my work. Until then I had always enjoyed good health, but I became a victim to giddiness, cramps, poverty of the blood, Bleeplessne36, loss of appetite, and swollen legs. If I went to bed early, .1 would merely lie tossing about till morning light bade me get up. Thus .1 woiild begin the day thoroughly worn out. You can imagine what condition I was in by bed time. Increasing weakness affected me and I could scarcely drag one leg after the other ; -even the slightest household work became a drag. No matter how tempting 'the meals were I could never eat. Everything I took had to be forced down. There was always a bad taste in my mouth. "My system needed rich red blood, and this was the opinion of the doctors who prescribed for me. They said my complaint was anfemia, but I did not appear to recover under their treatment. Whilst reading the Wellington Post I noticed the testimonials of people who had been cured by Dr Williams' pink pills. I commenced them, and even the third dose proved of benefit. I used several boxes, and am now quite strong and well ; lost appetite has been restored, I sleep well and can do any amount of work, without fatigue. My healthy appearance evidences my cure. Dr Williams' pink pills also cured an eye trouble which gave me great annoyance. I never fail to recommend this genuine medicine toull suffering acquaintances, and I know of several who have "benefited very greatly." From all parti of Australia "we recieve testimonials like this ; testimonials in which people tell -how ttrey have been cured by Dr Williams' pink pillt of rheumatism, sciatica, dyspepsia, skin diseases, after effects of influenza and fevers, ocmeumption, bronchitis, chronic colds, ladies* ailments, loss of vital 'strength, para-lysis, rickets, and all diseases of the blood and nerves.
