DELAY IS DANGEROUS

Anaemia should be Attended To at Once. It opens the way, to perhaps. Fatal Decline —How one Girl became Hearty and Strong. In no disease is neglect more dangerous than in Anaemia, Anaemia is literally a -bloodless state, and a lack of sufficient good red blood, robs the system of its chief defence against disease. This is shown by the fact that it is anaemic ones who drift into a decline or contract fevers. Taken in time anaemic is readily curable, the cure being a tonic medicine, which increases the red matter in the blood, thus enabling it to carry life and health to all the tissues of the body. Such a. tonic is Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. They actually combine with food and air to make new blood. They have cured hundreds of cases of anaemia in New Zealand. In the case of Mrs. John Mcnnio, 10 Baker Street, Auckland, they effected a remarkable cure. Speaking of her experience to a reporter, Mrs. Memiie said: — “I used to.be extremely delicate as a child, and as I grow up to girlhood I did not rally. I only wasted and faded more than ever. I very rarely •st down to a meal; if I took a cup of tea it would not he down one moment. Such a heavy' burning pain started in my chest and I used to starve myself, rather than cat and suffer afterwards. 1 was as thin as anyone could be. 1 had no colour; oven my gums and lips were quito white, and dark lines were under my eyas. A cut in the flesh would bleed a good deal, but the blood looked just like- pinkish water. 1 ached all over, and my ankles swelled greatly if I stood for long.: My feet and hands were like ice. I would go near distracted with the constant ache in my head. All day and night it throbbed and burned .till I could hardly hold up. I was in employment but I had often to give up and come, home; sometimes for a few days and sometimes,longer. ■ When I hurried my heart thumped furiously. The least hit of hill climbing affected my heart so that 1 got quite out of breath and had to stop and gasp. I often wished myself dead. I could never sleep soundly and on occasibns woke up bathed in perspiration with every atom of strength gone out of me. 1 never wanted company or pleasure, only just to rest was all I craved for. 1 got up each morning quite fagged and unrefreshed. The medicines I took did me good for the time being and that was all. Mother was very worried to see me fading so, and at last she got me a course of Dr. Williams’ Pills. They were just the medicine my system needed. The second box made a wonderful difference. By slow degrees my blood turned richer, some colour came into my face mid 1 began to eat. With the seond box the languid feeling gradually passed off. and I became well and strong.” The price of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills is 3s. per box, six boxes 16s. 6d., and if you have trouble in getting them send a postal note for the amount to the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co. of Australasia Ltd., Wellington, and they will be sent post free by return mail.
