HER HEART ALL WRONG.

MRS PENNELL, KAITANGATA TWELVE YEARS OF DOCTORING

BLOOD TURNED TO WATER LIFE HANGING BY A THREAD NO HEART DISEASE NOW DR WILLIAMS' PINE PILLS.

" Two doctors told mo my heart was bo weak that tho least worry or excitemant might, kill me," said Mrs A. Pennell, of Kaitangata, eldest daughter of Mr John Au.d, of Lawrence. " For twelve ears I wa-s always doctoring, for 1 never h«d a week' 3 decent health. My life was just trembling in the balance all the time with my weak heart. "Wlhen everything else failed our old doctor up in Lawrence told me to lake Dr William's' Pink Pills— and the way they built me up was something wonderful. For the past five years, my heart has been as sound as a belL and now I never have to give it a second thought. Before he went to England, the doctor told me that Dr Williams' Pink Pills had saved my life— and there is nothing in this world surer than that."

"As a girl, I was always heaWhy enough, but my blood began to go to wßter just about the time I first put my hair up," said Mra Pennell. "My face got as white as that sheet of paper. My -ips were almost biua, and big black rings came under my eyos. I always had a sickly washed out look, aa if I hadn't slept for nights on end. There was hardly enough blood in my body to keep 'ihe life in me. Even on tho hottest day, my hands and feet were like ice. I started to shiver all over, and the next minute I was burning hot again. At home, they thought I wao going into a Decline — and they were always at me to eat this and drink that to make me strong. But I simply couldn't look at food. I loßt all my old relish. Everything disagreed with me. If I only had a cup of afternoon tea and a plain biscuit, it seemed to lie under my breast bone like a lump of burning lead. Sometimes it was all I could do to draw a breath, with the 'Light pain across my chest. Twenty times a day, hot sour water used to rush up into my mouth and make ms feel faint and sick. When dinner time came, I only forced down a few bites, and then had to leave the rest. A sick feeling came over mo, and I wanted to vomit. My head began to spin round and round — and I got oold and clammy all over. My knees went from tinder me, and my heart stopped dead still. The next, minute I went down in a half faint, too sick for words.

" And, oh, you have no idea how my poor head ached alter ono of those bilious fits. The pain shot through my brain till it nearly drove me crazy. I -wanted to scre&rn wi;h it at times. My nerves were worked up to such a pitch that I didn't know what I was doing. I could not set my mind on anything. "When I got in one of my restless moods, you couldn't keep me two minutes in the one place. Everything got on my nerves. Often I was all of a tremble. My nerves were so jumpy that they kept me awake for hcurs every night. I was fair.y done up for want of sleep. The doctor told me that that Was one of the worst signs of Heart Disease. All ru=;ht long I 'Kissed and turned in my bed, and got up nert morning feeling utterly worn out and fit for nothing. No matter which way I turned, I felt that something was following me. If I heard a footstep on ihe pallh, I thought it wa3 someone with bad news. My heart gave one jump, and then fluttered like mad. I could not catch my breath, and. had to ( grab the nearest thing to save myself from falling head-first.

" All this time I was gelling thinner and weaker." added Mrs Pennell. " From morning to night, I was tired out. I had no life nor energy at all. I always had a nasty uneasy feeling 1 in my left eido as if wind was pressing on my heart. It wasn't what you'd call a. pain, but just a sort of choking. It was like being smothered. If I iried to do a. little housework. I had to spend the next two days in bed. Often I was too ill and weak to dress myself. When I tried to stand up, my legs hadn't the strength to hold me. Just in the small of my buck, I had a dull dragging ache thai r.:-ver left me. Try how I would, I could never shake eff that all-gone feeling. I was as weak as a baby. It was all I oould do to crawl about the house. If I tried to go upEtairs. I had to sit down before 1 was halfway to the top. My heart thumped against my side, and my breath came in short gasps. The fear of dropping dead haunted me day and night. The doctors toid me to take things quietly, >and never do anything to excite my heart — for they warned me that my life was just hanging by a thread. "That's the way I dragged along for twelve wer.ry years," Mrs PenneLl went on to say. '" My life v. r a» not worth living. I was always taking medicine and paying doctors' bills — but I went on suffering just the same. At las', the doctor said hs believed my blood was to blame for ihs whole "rouble — and he told me to take Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. The first three boxer, made me as hungry as a wolf for my meals — and that was more than common medicines had ever done for me. From that time on. every box of Dr Williams' Pink Pills did me more good. But it was siow work. I never heard of anyone else who had to take thirty-six boxes of Dr Williams' Pink Pills before they were cured — but that will just show you how bad I was. At the end of three months, I was another woman- altogether. My friends didn't know me. I wa3 just brim full of hea'.th and spirits. Best of all. Dr Williams' Fink Piils cured me for good— for I have rover had a day's illness since I left them off."

Dr Williams' Pink Pil!3 do only one thing. but they do it well— they actually make new blood. They don't act on the bowels. They don't tinker with mere symptoms. They won't cure any disease that isn't caused originally by bad blood. But when Dr Williams' Pink Pills replace bad blood -with good blood, they strike straight at the root and cause of all common diseases like headaches, sideaches and backaches, kidney trouble, liver complaint, biliousness, indigestion, antemia. neuralgia, sciatica, nervous exhaustion, failing powers, locomotor ataxia, . and the special secret troubles that every women knows but that none of them like to talk about, even to their doctors. Dr Williams' Pink Pills are sold by retailers and the Dr Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington— 3s a box, six boxes IPs Gd, post free. 1432
