ST. VITUS' DANCE—This Young Girl became Paralysed and Helpless-Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills Cured her. Mrs. Janet Wright, of Milchester Road, Charters Towers, told an interviewer of how wonderfully Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills cured her thirteen-year-old daughter, Nellie, who was helpless from St. Vitus’ Dance. “After an attack of Dyptheria,” said Mrs. Wright, “Nellie was left very weak and run down, and St. \htus Dance came on. She lost all the power of her right arm and all the right side seemed numb, too. She could not take hold of a cup with the right hand for it would fall and smash. The right leg was nearly,useless, for in walking she would throw it out and drag it after her quite helplessly. The right side of the face would twitch and quiver, she wasted to a shadow and she could not be coaxed to the table for meals. Her speech grew hesitating and her words jumbled and thick. If I asked her to repeat her words she would break down and cry. At night she was restless, and would throw her right arm about till she twitched all the bed clothes off. I noticed, too, a pinched far away look on her face. Her head ached so that she could barely hold it up. Happening to read that Dr. Williams* Pink Pills were excellent for the nerves 1 tried them for her.
