PERPLEXITIES OF TWO PALE GIRLS.
Miss Williams, of Capetown, South Africa, said that three years ago (when she was sixteen years of age) she began to be troubled with a tired, languid feeling after the slightest exertion. Her blood became very thin and watery, and often when standing her bead would get dizzy and giddy, accompanied by a terrible buzzing sound in her ears, after which she would have a terrible bursting headache. Then she began to sleep very badly ; when she did sleep she was troubled with horrid dreams, and in the morning when she arose she had a very bad taste in her mouth. Matters kept getting worse instead of better, and finally her blood got,so thin and sluggish that her pulse barely throbbed. At this time she had to go to bed often for three or four days at a time. She could not eat, had no energy, ambition, or desire to do anything, and, in fact, was as miserable as it is possible to be. Luckily at this time she heard of I)r Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, which she tried, with the result that now she is cheerful, happy, and bright. She looks healthy, and, instead of having her face covered with sores and pimples as it was, it is clear and smooth—thanks to Dr Williams’ Pink Pills. Miss M. Warne, of 68, Tivoli Road, South Yarra, Melbourne, tells ns that but three years ago she was simply dying. She grew thinner and thinner every day, and all her blood was turning to water. Her friends were very anxious about her. Doctors’ advice was obtained. They said she was suffering from ansemia, but though she followed their directions most religiously, no good resulted, and she sank lower and lower. At this time her elder sister, who bad heard of the virtues of Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, advised her to try them. She did so, and they acted like a charm, and she soon regained her lost health, and says that, though she now leads a busy and active life, she is stronger and better than ever before, and that Dr Williams’ Pink Pills are the only medicine that ever did her any good. The genuine Dr Williams’ Pink Pills are sold only in wooden boxes, about two inches in length, encircling which is a blue warning label. The outside wrapper has the full name. Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, printed in red. They are never sold in bulk, or from glass jars, and any dealer who offers substitutes in this form should be avoided. He is a man who would show equal readiness in employing impure drugs when making up prescriptions. In case of doubt it is better to send direct to Dr Williams’ Medicine Company, Wellington, N,Z., enclosing the price. 3s a box, or six boxes for 15s 9d. These pills are not a purgative, and they contain nothing that could injure the most delicate. As a spring medicine Dr Williams’ Pink Pills far surpass all other remedies Their action on the blood and nerves is prompt, and the effect is wonderful. Lassitude gives way to a feeling of renewed energy, and the lurking seeds of disease, resulting from the indoor confinement of the winter months, are speedily expelled from the system. These pills are sold only in boxes, the wrapper around which bears the full trade mark, “ Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.” A pill, even if coloured pink, offered in any other form, is a fraudulent imitation, and should be promptly refused. Buyers will protect themselves against imposition by bearing this in mind.
