GIRL'S LIFE TRAGEDY.

Tbe tragedy of an Onebunga girl's life, as told in detail by her to a reporter, affords a valuable lesson to all. The lady is Miss Druscilla Cunningham, of Selwyn Street, Onehuugo. Upon being interrogated Bbc gave the following account : — ' I can very truly claim,' said she ' that for my age — I am only eighteen — I have passed through more troubles than .most women. From my earliest years I was weakly and subject to heavy colds, so that when two years ago 1 was attacked by bronchitis I was ill prepared to withstand it. I became very feverish, a continual cough racked my frame, ray breathing was oppressed, my chest was exceedingly paicful. I grew weak, thin and pale, and exposure to changes of temperature caused violent fits of coughing, sometimes bringing up blood.' ' Ton have had more than your share of tragedy,' said the reporter. ( But more was to come,' said Misa Cunningham, ' for the bronchitis brought on consumption. I grew weaker and more emaciated, and suffered from the usual symptoms of consumption. I was very frail and despondent when one day I read that Dr Williams' pink pills were able to cure consumption. Somehow I seemed to believe in them — the testimonials seemed so true. After taking two boxes of the pills I certainly felt better. I continued with tbem for some time longer and was gradually restored to robust health. Now every symptom of bronchitis and consumption has gone, and 1 am stronger and happier than ever I was. i I really cannot recommend Dr "Williams' pink pills too highly.* By replacing tbe lost blood and increasing the resislent power of the Lungs, Dr Williams' pink pills have cured many cases of couuumption They so increase the patient's strength that he* or she is enabled to rally from 1 the weakness, and eventually to throw off consumption and other ailments.
