A Fortunate Drop.

At great fires many valuable lives have been saved by people jumping or dropping into blankets stretched ready to receive them by willing hands. Not only at fires has a drop or fall been the means of saving life; Mrs Boyes of 162 Dowling-street, Sydney, can vouch for that. She is ever ready to speak of her escape which was brought about by an accident. In talking to our reporter, she said : " I might have been suffering still if I hadn't had the good fortune to drop on a paragraph in the papers describing a cure of indigestion—which I myself was afflicted for 15 a yeara—by Dr. Williams' Fink Fills for Pale People. Though I always had iadigestion with me, it came on mush more violently at times than was Udual. The attacks were at first comparatively light, but as years went on they became more and more afevere. They commenced with a feeling of sickness and a disinclination to eat, and when I did manage te e»t some light food it would lie on my chest in a heavy, immovable lump. The sensation was most oppressive and distressing and. sometimes I was in such pain that I could hardly sleep, and often I would wake up in the night with a start and not get any more sleep till the morning, and wben I did get out of bed I would feel depressed in spirits, and quite overcome by a feeling of lassitude and weariness. I had violent headaches, and a most awkward giddiness when I <;ot up suddenly from a sitting posture; I also suffered fiom a continual bad breath and unpleasant taste in the mouth. I also had bad bilious turns. I wps not as you see me now, but was much thinner, with a pale, unhealthy complexion. During all these long years, in addition to the attention of doctors, I tried a large number of other remedies, and none of them did me an atom of good. At length I tried Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. The effect was astonishing; after taking them for only a short time the attack I was then suffering from was completely got rid of. I had a sound, hea'.thy appetite, which I hadn't had for years, and my sleep was no longer disturbed. I took altogether about 12 boxes, and the Pills completely cured me of botb< my indigestion and biliousness."

A remarkable efficacy in curing diseases arising from an impoverished condition of the blood or an impairment of the nervous system, sush as all sk/.n troubles, rheumatism, neuralgia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia, St. Yitus* dunce, nervous headache, nervous prostration, the after-effects of la grippe, dengue and typhoid fevers, and severe colds, diseases depending on humors of the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, etc., is possessed by Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, which give a healthy glow to pale and sallow complexions. They are a specific for the troubles peculiar to the female system, and in the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, over work, or excesses of any nature, A trial of our remedy will convince the most sceptical. The genuine Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold only in wooden boxes, about two inches in length, each of which is encircled by a blue warning label. The outside wrapper has the full name, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, printed in red. In case of doubt it is better to send direct to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., enclosing the price, 3s a box, or six boxes for 16s 6d.

These pills are not a purgative, and they coutaia nothing that could injure the most deljcate.
