A NURSE'S LUCK.

Mr Broadwood, of Pianoforte fame, be* queathed to Amelia Wall Edwards, of Bray Side, Malvern, who had nursed him through two serious illnesses, the sums of £10,000, £12,000 and £4444, his house, "Perney," and other valuable property. A New Zealand gentleman, Mr Thomas Collings, of Drummond, has also been singularly fortunate; for after all, good health is even more valuable than money. Interviewed recently, he said : — "lam thirty-nine years of age, and am a ditcher and drainer for many of the fanners about Drummond. At the beginning of last December I was attacked by a slight cold, and this brought on influenz*, bronchitis and asthma. When I laid down at night I could not sleep for coughing, and my chest used to ' whistle.' I could not eat properly. I went to a doctor in Invercargifl, and had gome medicine from him two or three times ; I also consulted another doctor at Otautau. He gave me medicine, and said that T would have to go up to the lakes for a change. I was told I had bronchitis, anil that tliere was dust in the bronchial, tubes, but I did not receive any benefit from the treatment. I first thought I would give Dr Williams' Pink, Pills a trial, on account' of reading of. so many cures in the pamphlets books. {Since starting them, I have' obtained the greatest benefit imaginable from them." Moral : To avoid disease, use i3r Williams' Pink Pills.
